>>62505051The CSX chads have inherited the Earth
>>62505052P230 is pretty kino. They are a little bigger but the manual of arms is much improved. It's a better gun in most ways.

>>62505073Ya but it's not a Walther®™©℠
On a scale of 1-10, how proficient are you with your handguns?
I polished the safety plunger on my Glock. It did smooth the trigger out a noticeable amount and reduce takeup. But afterwards my Glonk, which was tight as a virgin and did not rattle whatsoever when a mag was loaded and it was cocked, has a slight plastic rattle.Is this something I should be worried about? Did I fuck up the firing pin channel or something?
>>6250511410 is Ben stoeger, I’m therefore like 3, shooting at speed, shooting while moving, completely different ball game https://youtu.be/nMbjNmpnPAY?si=KN8ayJRnneURVeWg
>>62505012>Handgun General #1377What's the thing at the top of the photo, with the three cylindrical... things?
>>62505136That's called a case hinge. Did they not give you a free plastic case when you bought your last new handgun?
>>62505136Your photo...? You mean... the hinge...? Is this bait?>>62505012Damnit Japan.Reminds me of the Mexican 5906 Jerry did a video review on. I severely regret passing up on a slew of 5906s the were on GB a few years back. They were called "Centurion" models but I've never seen anyone make any reference to such a thing. Regardless, they were going for $400 a pop and I just wasn't in a place at the time to even justify that.There are people that are glad the 92 won the XM9 trials. Then there are people that wish the P226 won the trials. Then there's the rest of us that wish the 459 had won.
>>62505136>>62505149lmao
>>62505149This guy doesn't know what a hinge is
>>62505101That's OK. I think a lot of people forget that you can appreciate something for what it is without comparing it to something else and the P230 is a really nice gun. I babysat my buddy's when he was out of the country for a while and I loved it. If I wasn't a Bondfag I might have got one instead of the Walther®™©℠
>>62505051Glock 19 is 1.004 inches wideSro is 1.204I can confirm it disappears with the enigma
>>62505114Honestly like a 3 compared to someone who does it for a living.
>>62505192I wonder if I should get a ligma for the CSX, I've been using a muddy river tactical aiwb thing with a claw.
>>62505174>They were called "Centurion" modelsNo context makes this make sense.AFAIK they were plain Jane 5906s but had front serrations. No indication of anything special like a PC treatment but also couldn't see if they had cool shit like a barrel bushing all the fancy ones have.Another pic of the Nip 5906 from someone else
>>62505114Probably around a 3I can keep up with my local competition shooters with my edc glock 19 but I’m far from outpacing them and being small doesn’t help with recoil
>>62505174I feel your pain anon, I'm chasing one since I saw a Colorado State Patrol 4006 just a couple of days too late, they went for less than 550
>>62505174I like Beretta as a company more than SIG or S&W so I'm okay with this
>>62505012>>>62504906Have you had any trouble with the CSX trigger reset? I just started watching some youtube videos and everyone is bitching about it.
>>62505218Be a lot cooler if it was picrel
>>62505192>Glock 19 is 1.004 inches wideI swear it's wider >>62505199maybe hold off on the phlster, it's like 100 bucks. I have an idea if you use thishttps://www.mastermindtactics.com/shop/covert-belt-blackas the belt but then buy the https://www.phlsterholsters.com/shop/paracord-leg-leash-kit/you can get what the enigma does at about half the entry cost. the leash system is important for belt less systems, >>62505234mine has the false reset, I just completely let off the trigger, or I try to. There is a fix you can do with a file to fix it + the new manufactured ones fixed the false reset it's caused by the firing pin block plunger resetting/disengaging as the trigger resets, it's plunger that drops and so that is the source of the tactile feel. somewhere on the fourms there is a fix where you ramp that plunger so it lets off gradually instead of all at once so there is no tactile feel or click. I don't know what the new manufactured ones do to fix it but I wouldn't be surprised they copied that forum post. I've seen people disable the firing pin block and lighten the trigger to like 2 pounds on facebook groups.
>>62505210>being small doesn’t help with recoilAll the offense in the world intended anon, but meant well:That is a shitty excuse. There's a ton of female shooters that are probably five foot nothing weighing a buck-ten who could easily outshoot 99% of people out there.Maria Gishchina for instance placed 6th in a world competition where Ben Stoeger was 1st. Tatiana Gaider is Taran Butler's number one... uh... "friend" and she looks like a strong gust of wind will take her down but her shooting is leagues above most.>see pic and look at how much extra room she has on that grip; she's tiny>but her shooting ability...There's a ton more examples, but this is why Haley emphasizes biomechanics; how to hold a gun, how to stand, how to position arms, shoulders, etc. THOSE mitigate recoil far more effectively than brute force does.>>62505218Don't even start, I waffled on the ONG 870s back in the day because I thought it was neat but had an 870 and a bunch of other shotties. Now, if you can find one, they're stupid expensive.>>62505219Don't get me wrong, I have a 92FS and I love the shit out of it. Just something about the thought of an alternate reality where people had a Colt 733 with a Smith 459 makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
>>62505042You get a PPS>>62505051Tbf it’s only 21 oz and remarkably light for its bulk and once cold weather returns I can run it again
>>62505293at least this is less cringe than people claiming these clowns could outshoot an average gun owner.Instead they placed 30th and Turk Chad beat them despite using no equipment. Ginny is even more of a clown since these clowns beat her to qualify.
>>62505149>case hingeOh! I thought it was some kinda weird attachment for the pistol... durr.
>>62505174>>62505218>>62505293Oof, I had already forgotten about the Alaskan DLS 4006 I skipped because I didn't know more about third gen Smiths, feels bad man
>>62505041Based?>>62505052Nice PP
>>62505256Verification not required
>>62505293I’m not saying being 125 pounds means I can’t shoot wellI’m saying it means I’m always gonna be a step behind people like stoeger with the body weight to dampen more of the recoil
>>62505407the grip was what I was talking about
Guys pleaseHelp>>62505131
>>62505387>Alaskan DLS 4006I passed on the CHP 4006 TSW which was cool as shit because it had an integral rail (not the bolt on one)But I knew as a .40S&W I would literally never shoot it and converting it to 9 just didn't feel right.Fun fact for those that aren't too savvy for the Smith autos: they're basically redesigned BHPs with the FCG from a P38>Beretta 92 also borrowed heavily from the P38 including the locking block
>>62505419Did you do the maraca test with the same mag both times? Some Glock mags just rattle for some reason.
>>62505419Guns rattle a little anonAll my glocks do it and I’d be willing to bet my bf’s sig 226 elite rattled a little tooDon't worry about it https://files.catbox.moe/wbio2f.movDon’t mind my 3x zoom camera trying to escape my phone during this recording
>>62505417I may be a bit retardedVerification not required That’s like the 4th one in a row
>>62505442>they're basically redesigned BHPs with the FCG from a P38If you can't do your own homework, might as well copy off the A students.
it's honestly crazy how cheap ammo is still
imagine not owning cool lingerie for your guns
>>62505415This is why I like Chapman stance and PowerPoint. Your feet are positioned to let you take weight in a stance that resembles sword fighting.
>>62505586>>62505293I really need to work on my grip and posture. I've seen a bunch of videos but I think I'm still doing one or two things wrong
>>62505578do you have any 1911 stuff
>>62505578wait I FUCKING NEED THAT PX4 thing
>>62505443What is the maraca test?>>62505448I just don't want to have fucked up my gun.
>>62505578And people say autism isn't based
>>62505613yes but no 1911
Been waiting for a used P30S to pop up locally but that 3 mag rebate from HK sounds worth it enough to buy one new. Should I just go for that at this point?
>>62505041PPK chads: is it better to carry condition 2 with the trigger reset or still or in cocked position like >>62504714? And I mean better for the gun since the trigger already being reset is quicker and one less point of failure in an emergency safety would be on in both cases
>>62505578Dangerously based
How do you walk around in a gun show and not feel like all the vendors are staring at you wondering when you'll fuck off so they can get back to yapping?
>>62505012>G17.3 stock (main)>G26.3 stock (backup)Is it everything a man of action needs in his day-to-day life ? Are we fooling ourselves with gen 5s, front serrations and slimliners ?
>>62505675Keep some money aside for trigger work. I dumped the L and the reg is going as soon as I can find a decent trade for it. cause I fell for the LEMeme.
SHOW ME YOUR EASTERN EUROPEAN HI POWER CLONESthey aren't exported anymore and I want to see them.
Whoever claimed in the last thread that they have a forbidden trick for firing 10mm from a USP without modifying any parts needs to elaborate.
>>62505728Yeah
>>62505753If you don't get it you don't get it
redpill me on glock clones . I have spare glock 19 gen 3 parts , what do.
>>62505728Yeah, the gen 3’s are great if the grooves fit your hands
>>62505774Obviously I don’t get it Burt, I would not otherwise have asked for an explanation.
>>62505776Go to thegatalog.com and print a frame
I fingerfondled a USP .45 today for the first time. It felt really great in my hands, loved the slide and trigger. It was only $700 with 2 mags and case. I didn't particularly enjoy that I couldn't hit the paddle mag release with my thumb despite my weird long fingers but I figure if Tom Cruise can get proficient with it, I should be fine. My local range has one for rent so I'm gonna try that before I buy
>>62505802The chairmanwon ones are nice but need a $6 reprint after 3k rounds
>>62505828You are not supposed to use your thumb with the paddle mag release
>>62505828
>>62505728i feel like a fool :-/
>>62505728return to wood and steel white man
>>62505728I refuse to own any Glock that isn't a really made in Austria
lmao, lawful evil anon got banned for calling mods indiansreminder that blue boards have no tolerance for bigotry
>>62505918A moment of silence plsWe actually do have a spammers from India problem. You can’t tell because they type weird and spam zig talking points and if you ever ask them to post guns they will refuse even after you post your own
>>62505578>multiple berettaswhat's the fucking point? this is no different than people who buy 10 different ARs
>>62505101>the super penis penishave you shot it at all? Always loved how it looked.
>>62505939
>>62505728>no FS>no extended nor ambi controls >no dot>no magwell>not even a light>700 bucks of used guns top>absolute reliability>peak classisism How did I missed such a simple but efficient buying strategy ? I feel rekt.
>>62505951who's the old guy?
>>62505939there's a different between multiple ARs and a 92S, SB, F, FS, 96 centurion, M9A1, etcalso how will I display all my beretta lasers if I don't have multiple berettas

>>62506009Beretta is probably my favorite firearms manufacturer but I can't scrape together one iota of fuck about Langdon.

I own a PX4 SC and this is all very hurtful
>>62506079>None on gunbrokerShame
>>62505944Yeah about 200 rounds, it's about what you'd expect in 9mm Ultra, but I don't want to spend anymore of that rare ammo, I only had a case to start with
>>62506132>PP SUPEROH YEAAAHhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jJkdRaa04g
>>62506132How much did that set you back?
>>62506146A few hundred a few years ago. Looks like they haven't risen much, probably due to ammohttps://www.gunbroker.com/Guns-Firearms/search/completed?Keywords=walther%20pp%20super&PageSize=48&Sort=4&View=2&Timeframe=1
>>62502517Had a black .357 snubby one. They're imported by EAA. Fit and finish is rough and the grip had a tendency to slide off somewhat easily. Otherwise I never had any issues with it.
>>62506132Cant your big PP use makarov ammo? They’re basically the same thing Also I went deep woods and fired a few shots. The new mag works fine but the old one popped loose. I’m disappointed since it was very concealable.I guess this means I have to use the grip extension mag
Can someone tell me why a clone can cost more than the OG?, this is made in a local factory (Bersa) so no extra cost but still cost $200 more than a colt 1911
>>62506244Those are so beautiful. I appreciate you looking into it but unless it's a unicorn I can't justify buying a gun I essentially can't shoot
>>62505101God how could Walther fuck up the PPS by making the M2 frame so fucking ugly?? The M1 is so nice, a mini P99 even
>>62505795>>62505753>>62505774Is it like the 45 Super trick, only with a 40S&W USP instead of a 45?
>>62506311I've been looking for a .357 pocket pistol. How does it shoot?

Anyone into Tanfoglio? Local shop has some entry models they want to cycle out. A defiant and a witness I think. Tempted to expand to a hammered 9mm. Are they good?

>>62505405White grips look fantastic on blued guns.
>>62506552Only one of them knows how to shoot a gun. They’re air gun competitors and despite jiggling around with 1000$s worth of custom equipment a Turkish chad wearing a 20$ kit with a second hand pistol and a Korean woman utterly destroyed them.The Euro posters say they could outshoot anyone but an old divorced angry guy can literally just pick up a gun and outshoot them

Are LOK Grips CZ 75 slim grips any good? Or will I feel buyer's remorse since the CZ rubber factory grips help form ergonomics?
>>62506627They are better than the stock rubber for sure. The rubber grips suck when you are sweaty or wet.
>>62506642I'll buy some Standard thickness ones then. The slipperyness when my hands get sweaty is exactly why I'm looking into these.Is there a recommended pattern? I'm thinking of just going with checkered.
>>62506617Based schizo poster then>>62506594I switched the spring out for a fresh wolf 32. Eve if I couldn’t install the 380 it should still be fine to shoot a box of buffalo bore, right? I want to see if my gun feeds it since it’s the best for going through windshields for 32
is the sig ROMEOZero optic really that dogshit? never held one and looking for something budget for an extra pistol i have, but ive seen a few comments about how bad it is
Thoughts on this bad boy? Is it carry friendly?
>>62506700its fucking polymer. polymer body, plastic lens. it's dogshit, it's functional but really is just a optic plate cover plate. worth about 50 dollars.
>>62505012To the px4 shill: you were right. This OG LTT px4 is the single most FUN gun to shoot for me rn.
>>62506714Don't mention it
>>62506665I got the most aggressive ones. There's a scale of aggressiveness
>>62506685just shoot it and report back. also, post your safety.
>>62506714>>62506721I mean, you're welcome now you have to get the small one too
>>62506728Do you carry the inox versions?
>>62506389I got rid of it years ago. Honestly, if you get a snubby, shoot .38spl out of it. That short of a barrel for .357 is bonkers. The flash and concussion is enough to hurt both an attacker and yourself.
>>62506727There’s basically zero risk of damaging the gun from a few shots, right? It’s within the traditional energy yield of European 32
>>62506732I switch between these two, the iron sights make carrying in the summer much easier. While I do have another inox slide with iron sights I carry the one on the left, it’s actually a completely NP3’d slide, barrel, cam block, trigger group gun I found used. I believe it was a Langdon employee gun since it was from the same city as LTT in Arizona.
>>62506701That's on the upper limit of what I would consider to be a comfortable weight, but carrying it should be doable. It will feel a lot nicer OWB than IWB.
>>62506755I can't tell you that, but then again it should be said that you shouldn't buy clapped out guns that you plan to run meme rounds through.
>>62506775You're not worried about it getting confiscated (and lost)? I would hate to lose a cherished gun. I might be autistic, but the inox versions feel special.
>>62506797Confiscated for what?
>>62505600Practice makes perfect anon. Keep in mind anything you read/watch are meant to get you into a general area of improvement but it's up to you to fine tune it to your body, style, weapon, etc.There's also a lot of hooey being taught out there, and not every teacher may be comprehensive in what you need.One piece of advice I will say that I don't think many people mention is you need to know the right moment to pull a trigger. You can mitigate recoil and provide a lot of stability but we're humans, not robots, so we inherently move our sights aroundBut once in a while the rear sight, front sight and target all line up, it's the opportunity you get to pull the trigger. That's why trigger control itself is so very important.Lastly, consider going to a handgun training course with an instructor of repute, they might be able to see and suggest things to you that you'd otherwise never catch.
Muh
>>62506797I got spares for this reason. Inox slides are nice, but I just recently had a slide PVD Chrome/Nickel'd and it's very similar in tone and even more shiny.
>>62506787
>>62506816Jarvis Custom’s chrome PVD. Was 125 dollars and took 8-12 weeks (lead time was supposed to be 4).
Impulse buy today. I always wanted a P229 DAK which I was issued and carried for years. Chalk another for the .40 gang. Would like to a P232 some day. >>625050>>625073As an old school Sigfag I always wanted one. >>62505101Is that a P88 lower left? Is it sweet?>>62505442I remember those, always loved the Steel Smiths.
>>62506816The mismatch in serial numbers wouldn't bother you? I understand I might be a bit autistic for wanting matching serials, but I can't be the only one, right?
>>62506824NTA but I don't even think about serial numbers unless it's dubs or ending in 69
>>62506821Weird, this image won’t load >>62506824Serials don’t bother me. I do keep a few guns serial matching though but one of my inox slides came from a parts kit on gunbroker. Some of the PX4 frames I’ve gotten have been beat to shit so I moved the inox slide to a barely used frame.
>>62506822based. While I don't like Sig, I might give .357 Sig a spin.
>>62506523I have a preconceived opinion of any woman that stays within Taran's harem but thanks for pointing out the obvious.You failed to understand the point in why I brought her up in the first place though, I'll repeat it succinctly for the dullards:>she smol>but shoot good>>62506530Because it reinforces the point that despite also being of small stature she was in a competition of very talented shootersI feel bad for your caretakers that you need things broken down so much for you, life must be difficult, but keep trying and one day you may even get dressed all by yourself
>>62506701If my PPQ SF is similar then the weight doesn't reduce recoil as you'd think>>62506822Ya. Not really lol it's a duty pistol through and through with a safety mechanism that detracts from its trigger quality. That said it's built very well
>>62506842>Serials don’t bother meDamn, how do I gain this power?>I do keep a few guns serial matchingoh, sweet. I thought you only had frankensteined Inox PX4s.
>>62506859I have several P-Series and one P229 is converted to .357 Sig and will probably do the same to this one. A few months ago I think it was Aim Surplus had great deals on the ammo. >>62506889>Overly safe and well madeClassic Germans. I dig the P5 too and would prob spring for that first or maybe the OD P99. >>62506896Yeah I’m not trying to die of autism with mismatched s/n’s.

>>62506935I have no idea. I pulled out my Inox PX4, aside from the cut slide, my PX4 serial starts with a PX instead of a PY.
>>62506960It's a .40 S&W slide.The problem is I forgot the decocker before mounting the plate. >>62506896>Damn, how do I gain this power?having enough Beretta 92/PX4s you need to start giving them rack numbers

>>62506963>It's a .40 S&W slide.Ah, I guess that PX serials are for 9mm. >The problem is I forgot the decocker before mounting the plate. completely went over my head. I don't have my cut.>having enough Beretta 92/PX4s you need to start giving them rack numbersthe dream. The PX4 is a nice gun, I keep getting reminded of it each time I pick it up. I should keep an eye out for deals on used ones. Don't own a 92 yet, but Bereli has em for cheap.
>>62506973I fingerfucked it at the store and it was literally too small so I lost interest the second I held it. Also the trigger safety being curved outwards is weird. I'm sure it doesn't really matter in practical use but... why?
>>62506994Is that FDE?
>>62506994Serious question has there ever been a gun that looked better in brown?
I am of the steadfast belief that it should be illegal to sell pistols in any color combination besides black-stainless ad OD green-black.
>>62507000>3 fingered pocket pistol is too small
>>62506727I’m gonna do it tomorrow. Other people on the net report using it successfully on their import PPKsIt’s “only” loaded to the same specs as ww2 German ammo.I’m already using this gun so I better test it.
>>62507000The basis of comparison is the LCP MAX though, which is even worse.
>>62507033Yeah, it's too small. I don't like pocket pistols but I thought for the novelty I could check it out. Was not interested.>>62507038I think the LCP is gay.
>>62507018Stainless > OD Green > Black/Dark Grey > FDE > Gimmick color

>>62507033Is it really 3 finger? It's hard to believe how it's so small yet looks like a big grip compared to the LCP
>>62507018I like my plastic turd
Now that the US military is out of the desert and we're going to be fighting the prelude to WW3 in slav land for 30 years do you think the US military will switch from FDE to gray?
Burt, I finally disassembled and deep cleaned my P229 training pistol (it was filthy inside, I don't think it was ever cleaned). I've never disassembled a pistol this far before, so that was neat.Having gotten it to this point though, I think I understand exactly what I need to do to make this function with 9mm cartridges, and it's not as impossible as I originally thought.I have a few questions, and photos to accompany them. But first, here it's all naked and cleaned. It's not in as good of condition as your P226s are (the GB photos were more flattering than it is IRL IMO).
>>62507083B-Side
>>62507120Burt, my first question is regarding this roll pin(?) that's unique to the training pistols. I got some pliers and tried to just yank that sucker out, but it didn't budge, and just kinda scuffed the pin. At that point, I decided to just leave it alone for the time being.What is the purpose of this pin? Can I yank it out if I just pull hard enough? How is it in there so good? Can I get some pliers or a dremel and just it off?
Mounted an acro. Regret it.
>>62507073It's like 2.25 finger with the "flush" mag but with the 12 it's easily 3. Compared to an LCP where it's even shorter than 2 fingers with the "flush" mag and even the pinky extendo isn't really 3 fingers>>62507083Nice!>>62507143It's there to prevent you from dropping in a regular 9mm locking block, similar to HK's receiver shelf. I guess you could yank it out or cut it flat, I'm surprised it didn't come out honestly, but I found the easier and less permanent solution to be just cutting a notch in the new locking bloc to accommodate the pin, pic related
Is customizing your gun based or cringe?
>>62507143Now for the main course - the feed ramp! As discussed previously, this is unfortunately welded to the locking piece. However, now that I have it out and cleaned, I can clearly tell that it's only welded on by 2 spots on either side of the ramp. In fact, when I push directly down on it, there's a little give, and the oil I used to clean it squishes out the sides by where the 3 dots are.I can also tell that this locking insert is machined and not MIM, based on the that Sig Talk thread you linked to me. Also pictured on my locking insert is a cut out to accommodate the roll pin from my prior photo. None of this really matters though, since these locking inserts for this model of P229 is 100% unobtanium. There's no way I could obtain another, without just buying a whole nother gun and salvaging off of it (and I'm already in way too deep, so no way I'm doing that).All that is to say, I have to make this locking insert work. I'm pretty sure I need to saw off those 2 weld marks, polish it smooth, and then dremel the feed ramp deeper to make it bigger/more angled to accommodate 9mm cartridges. Is that correct?
>>62507197you wont know until you do it and then its too late
>>62507186I know you're a big fan of blue burb, but how easy would it be to scrub that finish away or have it DLC coated over?
>>62507205So what you're saying is I shouldn't try to stipple a bunch of skulls into the grip of my Glock?
>>62507197Carry guns are a lot like underwear so as long as you don't go around bragging about your hello kitty briefs nobody cares.
>>62507211you could probably buy just about any piece of fiber reinforced nylon and practice first
>>62507184lol the mailbox strikes again. Better send it to me for the memes.I honestly don't know why people keep buying them, high volume shooters say they fail more often than any of the other high end optics, the field of view is awful, price is insulting, nitrogen purge leaks. Yeah they're super clear and distortion free but so are most competition oriented optics>>62507197Yeah>>62507202You can put in other locking inserts, you are not limited to just that one, but it may require barrel fitting if you do.You CAN cut that weld with a little tiny cutoff wheel or something. The locking insert is perfectly normal otherwise. However you would have to take great care not to blemish the center area of the locking piece when cleaning up the remainder of the welds, the area between where the welds are, the part currently covered over by the FX feed ramp is where the barrel slides. Removing material in the center would disrupt the locking surfaces of the gun, possibly leaving the barrel too loose or asymmetrically supported. For that reason I elected not to cut any of my FX feed ramps off and instead bought new locking inserts>>62507207It's blue anodizing, so very painful. It would have to be destructively removed as it's part of the aluminum, which would change the dimensions of the part
>>625063139x18 Ultra is 9mm in diameter, 9x18 Makarov is actually 9.2mm because lmao communism. They are not interchangeable.
>>62507202>>62507238Actually now that I think about it, it's not that critical in that area because that's where the barrel slides when it's OUT of battery, not when it's locked in battery. So strike the part I said about great care lol go at it with a dull beaver and it should still work fine
>>62507186One of the handguns I've been looking for is a pre-B CZ-75. I stumbled upon a listing (posted below) and it looks pretty good. Apparently it was issued to a police officer in Ostrava and that city has sentimental value for me as I spent a few weeks there a lifetime ago. But, while I was looking at this listing, I also saw this and thought you might be interested:https://gunbroker.com/item/1056624774https://gunbroker.com/item/1056623200
>>62507250What's so great about pre-Bs?
>>62507202Actually, scratch that very last bit. I don't think I need to dremel the feed ramp to be any bigger/deeper. Judging by the images in Sig Talk thread, this locking piece IS a standard P229 one, just with the simunition ramp welded on top. So get rid of that and I should be G2G.https://www.sigtalk.com/threads/for-those-looking-for-a-p228-p229-9-locking-insert.369174/?post_id=5203334#post-5203334>>62507186>>62507238More like ACKro amirite? :VUnfortunately P229 feedramps for the first gen P229s are out of production and not for sale anywhere. Truly unbotanium. I think my only real option is dremeling off the simunition piece.>dull beaverWhat's that? A beaner maintenance man stole my dremel this summer when he was repairing the hot water heater. I was thinking about taking the locking piece into one of the gun stores I frequent that has an SOT/does a lot of FA and suppressors and custom paint jobs and such and just batting my lashes and asking them nicely to cut it off and smooth it for me (they've given me free FFL transfers and engravings before, so it's worth a shot). If they won't do it, I'll just buy another dremel and do this myself. For what I'd pay a gunsmith, I might as well just put that money towards replacing my dremel and doing this myself.
>>62507197
>>62507250I had a P64 awhile ago. I can honestly say it's one of the worst guns. lolIt was really awful. Awful trigger, awful feel, awful to shoot. They LOOK really rad though and I appreciate the Walther connection with Radom>>62507281You do not need to polish or alter anything else--just cut the welds off and try to bring them flush with the plane they are on. Don't touch any of the adjoining surfacesIf you have a vise already, do it yourself. If you don't have a vise, maybe an excuse to also buy a vise :)
>>62507233Wtf I love stippling now!>>62507302Yes, understood! I do have a $15 Amazon vice. I wonder if that'd be strong enough. Pic related, it's him. If this is good enough, then I'm going to just get a dremel tomorrow and do this myself.
>>62506727PPK chad(s) does this safety look okay?
>>62507318
>>62507316That'll do
>>62507197cringe if you do it off the rip
>>62507316yeah this but with skullz sounds BAD ASS
>>62507260I want a gun from every country I've been to.
>>62507339Should have made the gun pink. Using it in a DGU would make you a legend.
>>62507331Poggies. Okay then, I'll do this tomorrow and hopefully get everything reassembled and working okay in time to shoot it before the day is over. I'm honestly a little spooked that I'll do something wrong and the gun will explode in my hand or launch the slide into my face when I test it. Is there anything I should be worried about? There is a guy at the range who said he'd be willing to test fire it for me, but I'd still feel bad it I blew off his fingers or something. He does work tomorrow though...>>62507339Damn, that's hella kawaii. I will not rice out my Glock. I will not rice out my Glock. I will not rice out my Glock. I will not rice out my Glock. I will not rice out my Glock.
>>62507359Not really. The slide is capable of handling it, the 9mm barrel you bought is capable of handling it. I guess once the work is done check that the barrel goes in and out of battery freely and also isn't wiggly
Burt, would everything that comes with this Dremel suffice? Or do I need to get a specific attachment for the cutting?https://www.homedepot.com/p/Dremel-200-Series-1-15-Amp-Dual-Speed-Corded-Rotary-Tool-Kit-with-15-Accessories-and-1-Attachment-200-1-15/202349458#overlay
>>62507318PPK Chad?
>>62506973>lust provoking image>time wasting question
>>62507184>>62507238I kinda want one only for aesthetics on the P90. It looks clean af. But then I might as well just get the ring scope if I'm aestheticmaxxing>>62507379That kit looks decent but make sure you get one with an adjustable speed.
>>62507377Noted. Thanks!>>62507413I think that's the same kit I had that the beaner stole, and if so, yeah it's adjustable. I'm excited!
>>62507426I looked and it seems that one has a 2 speed control, I meant the variable ones. I'm sure that one is fine but it is convenient if you want to pay a bit more for a variable speed one.
>>62507379That small brown cutoff wheel would work. The diameter will make it tricky though, since you need to get very near to that bevel to reach all of the weld but the radius of the wheel will intersect before you get there. You could run the wheel against a piece of scrap metal for awhile until it wears to a small enough diameter to accomplish this. You'd probably want replacement wheels though, they're fragile and break easily
>>62505795If you're wanting to get your hands on a RAMI, is there a particular best way of going about it now that they're not in production?
>>62507432Oh good eye. Looks like I need to get one of the higher levels for like $60 or $80.>>62507447Amazing graphic. I was actually thinking of cutting it from the other side, but what you're proposing actually makes more sense. I'll get a packed of brown wheels meant to cut metal. I'll see what the smallest diameter I can get is.

Okay, I ordered a Dremel 4000 and 6 EZ Lock 1-1/2" metal cut-off wheels. I'll pick them up from Home Depot tomorrow morning. I'm so excited, I hope I can sleep! lol>>62507488Nice!
>>62507450Hunt the local ads, a guy out here had one on the state firearm classifieds website for $400 last winter.
>>62507462Were you thinking like this? This would be more apt an attack for a grinder, it's difficult to move those cutoff wheels on a Y axis. They only want to cut on an X or Z axis.Those little tan stone grinding drums clog up with metal really easily in my experience, I guess you could try though if you don't care about destroying the FX feed ramp
>>62507526Nah, I was thinking of having the grinder horizontal and just cutting off the weld marks, but I like your first image best. I'll try that first tomorrow.
>>62507184rip bozo
>>62507537idk why that was the last thing I thought of lol. Your idea would work too, sliding the cutting wheel under the FX feed ramp parallel to the barrel
>>625075518
>>62507563top right 20
>>62507184I cant believe anyone buys that shit lol. What a shitty fucking optic. just look at it. Its like you put a condom on a condom.

So guys has anyone tried ammo from a company called "ammo, inc"? How does their stuff compare to wincester or federal?
>>62507238Aimpoint sisters..
>>62507478>>62507482
>>62507646yes, it's worseonly get if it's substantially cheaper than blazer/federal (typically it isn't)they do make some interesting heavy-for-caliber stuff, but other than that they're pretty forgettable
>>62507646It's pretty much the worst somehow. It LOOKS shiny and nice but it malfunctions often, supposedly. I've only tried 1 box not enough to see malfunctions
>>62507555Exactly. Having gone through all the options again, I think this method would be best. I'll report back tomorrow!
Thinking about the Taurus Judge for the meme. Are they decent or just a total piece of shit?
>>62507004>>62507018ODG for the Steyr. I think HK has the best brown. I hate FDE anything.
>>62507021I would vote “aye”.
>>62507673The use case is a meme imo, because .410 is iffy for anything bigger than small game, and .45 LC is awfully expensive for what it is. With that said, the Judge isn’t an incredibly poorly made gun or anything, it’s a typical Taurus revolver in my experience, which is to say it’s a bit worse than Ruger/Smith but still totally serviceable. If you need a snake gun, you could do worse.
Oh Burt I had one more question for you. Do the mags that come with simunition guns run actually 9mm cartridges? I can test tomorrow I suppose. They look like they do.
>>62507692They're totally normal 9mm mags (if marked 9mm not .40)
>>62507698>double stamp p90sex
>>62507478Very nice
Ben Stoeger, who became a Sigger like a week ago, is shitting on the P226 Legion saying the gun is mechanically accurate but has a terrible trigger. Meanwhile the Staccaro has an excellent trigger but is inaccurate.
shooting cheap reman ammo through a PX4 is so weird. the slide constantly moves at different speeds.
>>62507959>ammo is loaded so horribly inconsistently you can visibly see the difference in slide velocity>your reaction is "haha that's so weird!" and not "wow I'm going to lose my hand if I keep shooting this shit"lmao
>>62507996More likely to just fail to cycle.
Just got off the phone with Kathrin Glock, and she confirmed Ben Stoeger is on their payroll. t. insiderbro

>>62507018Yes.
>>62507233Based caturday poster, chkd
>>62505101oh sweet a hi point carbine
>>62508273buddy had one and broke it by feeding it high velocity ammo or something
>>62507202>>62507377Is the 9mm barrel you bought the 228/old 229 style or the 229-1? If it's 229-1 I think you could (maybe even should?) use the 229-1 locking block.
>>62507318>>62507324>>62507387Your safety looks fine. I was just curious about the wear between those two detent slots. Want to see if theres some material missing between those two slots. Post the safety like I have here >>62504387

When it comes to Hi-Power clones, how would you guys rate FEG's?
I'm an asshole
>>62500855Sorry, missed this>Better than PPQ? Absolutely, by virtue of it being a DA/SA. Canik can barely get the trigger down themselves as they copy it wholesale but they're about equal to the standard PPQ and PDP if not slightly worse. P99 tops all of them. You should get one lad.
I keep a loaded 9mm handgun in my closet
I keep a 15+1 9mm with a spare magazine and I want to be friends with you
>>62508936Not that Anon but you've got me sold. I'll keep an eye out for any cheap non-FINAL EDITION ones on GB
>>62505692>is it better to carry condition 2 with the trigger reset or still or in cocked position likeThe PPK should be carried with a round chambered and the safety on. That will safely drop the hammer and hold the firing pin in place.
>>62507450Gunbroker or a lucky find at a gun show or in local classifieds, I guess. They are not too common. The pic you posted is actually of the same pistol as the one in the post to which you’re replying. Just a couple years apart with different grips. I loved the green G10 grips but I started wearing the pistol with formal attire and a change to wood seemed the appropriate thing to do.
I don't have as much range time as I used to. I used to be able to go at least twice a month but now it's maybe once a month, once every 2-3 months.What kind of drills should I be doing to maximize my time? Mozambiques and Bill Drills?
>>62508936Now I'll keep my eye for a used P99 when I window shop gun stores. Good to know. If it has such a great trigger why did the P99 completely fail to take off? Seems strange to me.
>>62509340>If it has such a great trigger why did the P99 completely fail to take off?Because Walther has the shittiest marketing of all time
good morning :-)
>>62507698How is shooting that woth and without the can? Always wanted to gunsoom a suppressed P90.
I watch guntube videos as I eat my cottage cheese and baked potato before going to the wage cage.

>>62509445>cottage cheese and baked potatoThis is an odd breakfast
>>62509445RIP. I have always liked CZ, so that’s sad to hear. Particularly the microdot-only thing, how retarded. They absolutely knock it out of the park with certain designs (e.g. pic related, best glock-ish pistol on the market imho) but they can also be totally clueless sometimes. I waited for them to capitalize on the increased popularity of 10mm with a 97 chambered in it for years, and they just didn’t. No, that tiny batch they made like two decades ago does not count. No, I don’t want to buy a spaghetti clone.
>>62509117It looks like the safety is supposed to have a trench line or something
>>62509430I'll let you know, shooting it today. Pretty sure I didn't fuck anything up with the new barrel. The stock barrel is fine but you can't mount anything to it. That makes the gun mostly a waste of money unless you like the looks or its use in TV. Then you gotta spend another like $650 to convert it. Part of that is tools you will need, because the belgians made it complicated for no reason.
>>62509332you need to dry fire a lot more. Those drills are not going to teach you anything doing it once every 2-3 months. That is a waste of ammo without dryfire. Get some of Stoegers books about dryfire practice.
>>62509445>babby's first duty-grade DA/SA trigger is too difficult for a competition shooterI haven't handled the Nocturne yet, but if it's like the normal P-09, the trigger feels about the same as a base model CZ-75. It's not great, not bad, but just average. If the trigger is that much of a bother, a reduced hammer spring comes with the CGW parts you should buy anyways.>accuracy plummets because CZs are reliant on fatmaxxing and this is the same weight as a GlockWhat did you mean by this?

>>62510226Fuck, I keep eating into the locking piece at this point.
>>62510243>>62510226What are you trying to do?
>>62505828The USP is just special.>how the slide racks>utilitarian look>great grip and feelIt's H&K's first "normal" gun: they wanted military and LE contracts, avoiding "unconventional" design choices (roller-delay, squeeze cocking) just established, simple designs (tilting barrel, DA/SA) and bomb-proof them.I believe it's also the first polymer-framed, hammer fired pistol.Reiterating the point on mag release:>use your middle finger>you won't accidentally drop a mag>if you have to shift grip for button you may not for paddle
>>62505828Hit it with your off-hand thumb.
>>62510243>>62510226I think that's okay. It might even be sufficient as-is. The green surfaces are the critical ones, the red surface doesn't really matter. Get the barrel and center it on the locking block where it sits in your vise, the diamond shaped lug under the chamber drops into the hole. Drag the feed ramp back and forth on the surfaces pictured, up and down the ramp. Does the feed ramp touch on what remains of those welds? If not, it's fine. If so, it's probably still fine but personally I would give it a kiss more attention until the welds are shy of that plane
>>62510497Okay, it's not as pretty as I had envisioned, but it's all smooth to the touch, so I think this should function properly. I'll grab my barrel and test that now. I wonder if I'll need to cerakote this or something since the raw metal could corrode...>>62510352Love and support my simunition-to-9mm (St9) P229 by providing the mechanically necessary treatment for it to be its authentic self.

>>62510553Out of production and 100% unobtainium.
>>62510529There you go, don't forget to cold blue that or at least douse it in oil! Could even paint it for rust prevention since it's not a wear surface, if you don't have Coom Brand® Nano© Gold Guard™Now you get to see if you still need to fit the barrel after all this :D
>>62510603What's cold blue Coom Brand® Nano© Gold Guard™? I'm not familiar with this kind of work, so idk about products. I do reckon, I need something coating the raw metal.>Now you get to see if you still need to fit the barrel after all this :DYou mentioned this before, but I didn't really understand. Now that all the parts basically in spec, shouldn't it work fine? How will I know if the barrel needs fitting? Just dry racking it a few times once assembled?Speaking of, I'm going to start reassembly. I suspect this will take me a while.

>>62511388Turbo. They decided mogging every other light on the market with lumens wasn't enough and went after candela too which means the throw is much farther.
>>62511363tlr-1. No I WILL NOT voluntarily blind myself in a home invasion scenario
ASSEMBLED!!! It looks stunning and brave if I do say so myself. It feeds snapcaps and all function checks check out. Heading to the range now to shoot it.
>>62510999>999Sheeeeet
>>62511417I'm avoiding Streamlight too many fucking letters and symbols is like looking at a billboard, I prefer more minimalist.
>>62511417Lol. Anyways they asked what the best was, not which one won't blind you. If you're blinded standing behind it just think about how the other guy is doing. Lumenlets won't understand.>>62511533The surefire also looks way better, so it sounds like it's settled then.
>>62511497Off yourself with it...
https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1066768980Wilson Combat 1911, .45 ACP, Commander Sized with Stan Chen magwell (huge opening), 6 magsless than 2k. personally I would buy it now since I just watched this auction roll over with no bids and then he lowered the price and added a buy it now. As soon as you bid some fucking jackass is going to bid too.
>>62511535My top three choices so far to put on my USP would be: Surefire, Modlite (owner kinda cuckoo), and Cloud defensive (In my dreams). It seems the Surefire is the only one with a good track record.
>>62511392He lost a bet and had to put a thot (male) on gunOr so he says
>>62511536Cope, seethe, then dial 8, chuddie (^:
>>62511559Why do USP fags buy the gun then insist on mounting a light on it?Any better HK (P30, P2000, HK45) and it would all work natively and you could probably even get a holster.
>>62505373>Mary TuckerWood nut in cider
>>62511417How are you niggas always apparently accidently turning yours own? Dare I say>Skill issue
>>62511630Sorry anon, I'm not getting any copeium wannabe USP.
>>62511363The new Surefire with the extra candela. I guess they're called Turbo?>>62511417Not with a TLR-1 you won't, you're correct>>62511392I don't know what it "is," it's a catgirl waifu some trip in /arg/ was avatarfagging with for years>>62511497Nice man! Give the barrel a wiggle test just to be sure. Hold the slide (not the frame) and stick your finger in the muzzle, wiggle it around. Then hold the slide and grab the barrel hood with two fingers and try wiggling, rotating and sliding it around. Then hold the whole gun around the slide and dust cover and push the barrel hood down like it would when unlocking. It should stay firmly in place. It might move microscopically in some of these tests but shouldn't be loose or rattly>>62511693>no springs were replacedThis is a lie. idk who that blogger is but that is NOT what Federal said, they said there were no parts breakages. There is no way that gun made it even past 30,000 rounds without spring changes let alone 200,000
>>62511710>This is a lie. idk who that blogger is but that is NOT what Federal said, they said there were no parts breakages. There is no way that gun made it even past 30,000 rounds without spring changes let alone 200,000Also the "Federal USP" was ~300,000 rounds allegedly. Which the Federal USP never had documentation, the source was hearsay of someone else having a phone call with someone else - nobody involved was the source, I think it's complete fabrication by some faggot on HKpro.
>>62511720There were two USPs touted and I think both of them were Federal test guns, the 300,000 one was .45 the 200,000 was bestmilimeter. There's no official story no, but HK did put the .45 in some kind of display case at some kind of gun show, I recall seeing it being shown off on a big pile of spent brass with an HK logo. So that's secondary confirmation I guess, I'd like to think they're not just doing that based on a forum post but from actual communication with Federal.I believe it, but I also believe other guns will do the same, they've just never been pushed that far. Beretta 92s for instance can easily surpass 100,000 rounds and I see no reason why your typical strikerslop like Glock and M&P wouldn't be able to survive either
I think HK was really cool in the 80s and 90s but modern HK is fucking lame
>>62511720We need a pro shooter who burns through 100k rounds a year and notoriously can't be bothered with maintenance to put this myth to the test.
>>62511768There's nothing they could realistically make at HK USA that I'd be interested in buying. Maybe a 320 to fiddle with at my desk, but they're not gonna make grenade launchers for the commercial market and if they did they'd be priced to compete with LMT M203s, which are disgustingly overpriced.
>>62511760Some gun range claims to have a Glock Gen 1 17 that has over a million, they bought the gun when it first came out knowing that people were going to want to try it out. They did maintenance cleaning and shit. There was also that M&P a competitive shooter estimates to have 100k+ rounds through it without cleaning and it looks like it did. I seriously doubt super high round counts without cleaning since the extractor is going to get gummed up at some point. Maybe they only clean that spot. >>62511769Ben?
>>62511760>USP .45>tight tolerances >full length guide rod>UnreliableNot a soldier's gun
>>62511720Apparently the tweet is by Honkler & Kekhttps://x.com/HecklerAndKoch/status/1448460025396174848That's a shame, that reduces credibility of the claim by including the lie of not replacing springs>>62511769Too bad he switches guns so often, he's only gotten his Berettas up that high>>62511794Good point, I bet Battlefield Vegas has a bunch of handguns with super high round counts like that
>>62511760>>62511794Also, I've seen tests of the HK45 and the P30 where they claim those guns are the most reliable guns they've ever tested. And those were only like 50k and 90k round tests. I doubt the USP is that reliable since if the USP was that reliable the testers would claim the USP is more reliable than HK's newer offerings, which they don't.
>>62511799NO' A SOWJA'S GUN
Bought a used GP 100, there's a bit of metal missing from inside the trigger, I can see the white parts where its cracked off and worn. The gun seems to dryfire okay, haven't taken it to the range yet. Will this affect anything? Could I get Ruger to fix this under warranty?
>>62511834That's a significant hazard. That thing is fucked bro. DO NOT shoot it if you value your fingers...sorry anon.
>>62511834that part always falls off. its normal
>>62511710> it's a catgirl waifu some trip in /arg/ was avatarfagging with for yearsSource?
>>62512040I'm sorry for your blindness anon, it must be difficult
>>62512083I mean do you have more pictures
What is a polymer gun you wish was steel and vice versa
>>62512095Hell no lolGo look him up he was always posting those>>62512104NoneLaugo Ayy
>>62512104>wish was steelnone of them, steel is heavy and I can't think of a single polymer gun that would benefit from weighing and costing more. No matter what you do it's not going to compete with a 1911 in terms of trigger so why bother turning into a range toy that gets mogged by a gun from a hundred years ago at being a range toy?>wish was polythere's like, two good steel frame pistols ever made. They're also generally all very old and not particularly suited for carry, so wouldn't benefit from a poly frame. The only one I can think that maybe would be good is the CZ75 and that already exists and basically nobody buys them. I've literally never seen a CZ p07 or p09 that someone has actually owned.The 1911 exists and it should just stay steel frame. The various flavors of striker fired polymer framed pistol exist and should stay as they are.
>>62512104PX4 -> steel pretty much any of the polymer bullpups, if they were made of aluminum/steel they'd be cooler
Polymerchads stay winningThe steel virgin weeps
>>62509028>>62509340Based. I think you lads will enjoy them very much.>>62509346Fucking for real. I guess they thought it popping up in the Brosnan films would be enough and stopped pushing it at all.
>>62512227I have nothing against polymer pistols I just prefer older handguns aesthetically. >>62512254I'm the Anon that is actually on the fence about buying a used PPK/S for conceal carry but I'm also interested in the P99. I got my hands on a PPS the other day and I was not a fan. Walther does need better marketing.
>>62510787CZ P-10
>>62509340The Anti Stress mode is confusing for normies. They don't know you can just ignore it. People see "striker" and "DA/SA" and their brains melt.
>>62512293After trying out the 32 version I can say it’s the best thing ever Also buffalo bore and underwood ammo run surprisingly well in the pre ban guns so a modern could handle them for sure
