Happy Halloween my dudes
Friendly reminder to the paranoid incels who congregate here: Don't shoot the scary beings who come ringing your doorbell tonight (>implying you live in a house, kek). It's Halloween and those spooky monsters are actually trick or treaters (aka children in costumes) looking for candy.
>>64464911But what if they make me afraid?
>>64464911>children in costumesThe video you posted is unrelated and the 1911, USP, .45 ACP fanatics have yet to arrive so the mockery of them comes across as preemptive
>>64464911Statistically speaking posters like this are more likely to shoot children.
>>64465067P, T, whatever the label they target children more than anyone else
>>64464247>Glad they failedCheers! :3c>>64464261sybau
>>64465073Lol you're literally unsafe to be around firearms
>>64465054>>64465067Cope. Leave the children alone you sick /hg/ freaks! If your state has red-flag laws, I hope your families use them.
>>64465073I’m manifesting

>>64464911>That recoil controlKek
>>64464911I live on a dead end street. We never got a lot of kids before she we get zero now. Just as well. I don't feel like interacting with this generation.
>>64465204In my childhood neighborhood Trick or Treating was big because of all the families there. 5 years after I stopped it almost completely dried up because the kids grew up and somehow vans full of kids in no costumes and pillowcases kept showing up to the point that people didn't even leave candy out.
What brand of ammo do you buy for your handguns? Recently got a case of pic related to shoot.
>>64465257I only buy Winchester 9mm basically but for .45 I buy whatever is cheapest. Speer Lawman 200 gr +P is quite stout and is supposed to be paired with their 200 gr +P Gold Dot, a few brands make specific practice ammo that mimics their duty ammo which is good.The paired ammo for Winchester Service Grade (military designation M1152) is Winchester Defense 147 gr High Pressure (M1153) which is basically only available through SGammo, I don’t know what type of deal he has with Winchester but he gets some interesting ammo sometimes.
>>64465274Also M1153 isn’t that great of a performing hollow point in the tests I’ve seen since it needs to perform well in both pistols and submachine guns. It’s based on the Ranger T (Black Talon) projectile but tuned for more penetration
>>64465257This is the last ammo I bought and the one I did the most research on. I wanted subsonic 9mm that would actually expand out a 4-5 inch barrel. I had to take the word out third parties because there is literally nowhere I can set up testing media. There's tons of shitty indoor ranges, but nowhere I could even set up water jugs, let alone a meat target. I just have to hope it's effective if I ever need to Luigi Tyrone. For my normal shit I got the cheapest range ammo I could find and either sig v crown or Hornetty critical defense for carry depending on what's available. I got some hard cast bear 357 somewhere in case I ever go innawoods. That should be sufficient for anything around here.
S&W E series 1911, around a thousand bucks brand new, worth it or no?
>>64465257l load my own
>>64465257Building off this, what is the move to make when buying bulk 9mm for different uses? FMJ would be the easy cheap bulk option, but what about defense ammo? Granted, the vast majority of your ammo use will be for range/practice/plinking anyway, so maybe it's not worth considering.
Happy Halloween /hg/
There really is guys that get upset at people want to owb carry smaller pistols.
>>64465448Why are you making this a core personality trait?
>>64465464It's amusing thing to get upset about, thats all.
>>64465485Sounds like cope because everyone made fun of it.
>>64465488I think only one person but yes I cry myself to sleep now
Carrying a subcompact owb is weird and suboptimal. But, I carry a revolver, which is weirder and less optimal yet. There must be someone who would not understand.
>>64465545What revolver do you carry?

>>64465424NTA but I would say if you actually shoot don't let your 9mm ammo supply get below a case (1000 rds). For 9mm defense rounds I personally keep ~300-400 rounds of hollow points (I do shoot them at the range occasionally so it's probably closer to 200 now) and ~150 rds of some fancy hard cast stuff for when I go hiking. I occasionally shoot those too but less often than the hollow points because they're more than 2x the priceI'm just a random retard online though so do what makes you happy anon :)

The mouthbreather at my local pawn shop tried to tell me that 22lr has more stopping power than 9mm because you can fire them quicker. What retardation have you guys heard recently?
>>64466569>22lr has more stopping power than 9mm because you can fire them quickerThis is essentially the exact same argument 9mm fags make when they point to magazine capacity as the reason it's a better option than, say, .357 or .45. Then as a last resort they'll claim stopping power doesn't exist>What retardation have you guys heard recently?Somebody was on here claiming .223 isn't powerful enough for whitetail

I want to switch from my Gen 3 G19 to an equivalent S&W because I like my Shield Plus so much and shooting it has brought back the awkward 2x4 feel when holding my Glock. Is there any real reason to go with an M&P Compact over a Shield X? Seems like the latter has all the benefits but with the slimmer profile, smaller grip, and better trigger of the Shield line and I should be able to use the mags for range time with my Plus.
>>64466877The compacts fatter grip make it harder to conceal, but easier to shoot with less felt recoil. It's a trade off, like all things. The M&P compact will be able to take more optics and aftermarket triggers if that matters to you.
>>64466893I have small hands so I think the grip size situation kinda balances out since I can get such a good grip on the Shield. Triggers aren't a big deal, the stock Shield one is really solid and there are decent aftermarket options, and I'll probably never run optics, just put some tritiums on it. I guess the only things would really be mag and holster availability, factory S&W mags are stupid expensive and there are cheap plastic ones available for the regular compact, I probably wouldn't carry with them but they're fine for range time. I'd probably move my TLR-7A over from my G19 and I'm not sure what holster availability for that combo is like either, especially since the TLR-7SUB seems to be the popular option for these guns.
>>64466902>I'm not sure what holster availability for that combo is like eitherInsane kydex creations has the TLR7A/shield X combo. They're a bit more expensive and take a bit longer to ship but they're good holsters and have all those odd ball ass combinations other folks don't bother to stock

I unplugged the goldenrod in case the heat attracts them.Should I close the central air vents to that room in case the heat is bringing them?
>>64465417You could donate lot worse for an SS 1911.
>>64466950Your gun collection must be sweet.
>>64466954no cap fr fr
>>64466916Yeah I'm sure there are a few more on the market and will be more as time goes on, I just really like being able to fondle a holster IRL before buying it since it's such a personal fit thing. I have a G-Code Shadow Eclipse for my G19 and really like it, hopefully they'll come out with a Shield X option.
>>64466612The biggest downside to .22 lr is the relative inconsistency of ignition compared to centerfire ammunition.
>>64466950Ants primarily want 2 things: food and water. Remove these and you will likely be alright, although it might take weeks for them to clear out. Best call the Orkin man.

I practicing with optics sights and not convinced to buy them. They said if you keep practicing you never want iron sights again.
What do you guys think? Should I grab a stainless hammer or leave it be now at this point?
>>64467050gun is fine, practice shooting
where my anaconda posters at tonight
>>64467068Of course, but my guns are also pretty barbie dolls with which I will be putting different dresses n shit on.
>>64467050Hammers reportably are drop on parts but you’re messing with sear engagement when you swap. It may render your gun unsafe or not function at all. Leave it
>>64467024The way I see it, optics are fine on a full size firearm, but they negatively impact concealability so there's no real point on a compact firearm that you're intending to use for conceal carry.
>>64467089>Hammers reportably are drop on partsNot on revolvers btw
>>64467088Honestly? based
>>64466974This is true but only if you buy cheapshit .22lr ammo
>>64467287I said something similar and even pointed out that I had an optic fail on me and was accused of being a noguns larper. If I recall correctly, it was Ben Stoeger fans. You never saw such amateurish shilling. I think optics are great for duty guns. When concealment isn't a factor and you're actively engaging danger in the context of a work shift the issues are minimal. But for concealed carry, it's not worth the bulk and the extra points of failure (the electronics, the mounting, the glass itself.)Another thing is that you have to commit to a weapon light, otherwise you run the risk of being in the wrong lighting conditions. The reticle can be too bright to wash out the target or too dim to see. Automatic dimming systems are unreliable as you won't necessarily be in the same lighting as your target. If you're a cop or soldier the bulk of the light matters less and you're more likely to be able to anticipate conditions or have time to operate the controls on your optic. Also, CC optic controls are often small and hard to operate under stress. Concealed carry is most often counter ambush and by definition you don't choose the lighting and don't have time to adapt. And posting this got me a whole thread of >Nuh uh! >No guns! >You don't know anything! >Optics don't break! >Iron sights break too!
What are some regular (not fancy sport/race guns) pistols with good stock triggers? Do I really need a 1911 or a hammer-fired gun to get the smoothest pulls?
>>64468436Not reading this schizobabble
>>64468455And there it is.
>>64468445cz-p01
>>64468436Yeah I agree a dot on a concealed carry gun is almost completely superfluous. A light however is an extremely good idea, for all the reasons you stated. Also,>>Iron sights break too!lmao
>>64468445This is highly subjective. When I was shopping for my second gun the lgs guy was showing off the Walther ppq and hk vp9 triggers expecting me to be impressed and they felt meh. Maybe it's because I was late to the game and not used to shitty early Glock triggers. Also, dry firing a couple times at the gun store counter is totally different from live fire. Someone on here can tell you "my canik has the best trigger, it's better than a Langdon tactical Beretta, I shoot the best groups with it" and it's true. For him and that gun. Then another anon can post "I bought a canik and it was unreliable, the trigger was inconsistent and spongey, it was a rip off, I couldn't sell that piece of shit fast enough" and it's true. For him and that gun. >1911 or hammer firedLots of hammer fired guns have shit triggers. The only reason for an end user to care if it's hammer or striker is that the striker guns can be smaller and weigh less, but the difference is minimal. I'm assuming that by>smooth pull you're saying you don't want to deal with da/sa. Most your striker options are going to have a take up and wall so by definition they won't have a smooth uniform pull with a surprise break. That being said, most modern triggers if they aren't fucked up by bad qc will be perfectly fine with obsessive dry fire. It will smooth out from use and your finger will get used to it. Good luck.
>>64468512The guy arguing with me linked a short where some competitive shooter fag had his front sight come off (good thing I had a back up dot, lol!)Well he probably replaced it himself and half assed it. Jack Daniel at thunder ranch has a good rant about how every class at least one guys optic falls off and it's always someone else's fault. "Yeah my brother put this on" or whatever, like that's an excuse. >Light on carry gunI can't be bothered. Usually it's a 380 in a pocket. But I'm so lazy I stopped carrying a spare mag. I do carry a separate light, usually a cheap AAA one I buy in bulk and have one everywhere. If I was working in the ghetto I'd bother, but that would involve consistently carrying a 9mm, buying a new holster going back to iwb. Pocket 380 and chinisium AAA light are enough for what little I actually do anymore.
>>64467050Based setup but replace the hideous hex grip screws with slotted screws please.
Is it worth it to snag a G19X MOS with the threaded barrel and suppressor-height sights before the Big G discontinues everything for the V series? I don't own any other 9mm Glocks, so the whole issue with the mag compatibility doesn't really bother me.
>>64468788only if it's discounted, there will be a 19X V MOS with threaded barrel
>>64468811Was it ever confirmed that V-series is coming with an analogue to the OEM performance trigger right out of the box? If so then it might be worth it to just wait.
>>64468436Post guns
>>64468811>>64468817Why would you believe anything they say? You got to make a personal value judgment. Do you want it for yourself? If it's for resale, is going to be like selling a no hole j frame. They made lots of them, it's not going up enough to justify as an investment. My personal opinion is that there are better options for practical carry, either cheaper or better, possibly both.
>>64468872After you.
>>64468886It reads like ESL word salad where you seem to be just regurgitating a lot of what other people say
>>64465426Is that the calico with the black talons loaded in da clipz?

>>64469025Good luck, what slide?
>>644684451911s have noticeably better triggers than just about anything, including other hammer-fired guns. After a certain point, though, I feel like actual shooting performance doesn’t closely track with how “nice” the trigger is. Chasing the dragon of “best trigger” is an inevitably fruitless endeavor. Enlightenment is being able to shoot anything. Stay away from super light striker triggers, like Zevs and certain Overwatch Precision ones.
>>6446911826
>>64469100Threadlocker and a Fixit stick have saved me many a time from doing this. Properly torqued and secured screws basically don't move.

Forgot to take any pictures of the /hg/ detroit meeting of the minds except this failed attempt at a jack o lantern on a 3x as big as required target anyway.
Anyone here with a 92a1 know if it can be converted to an uncaptured spring?
>>64469542It was too hard of a challenge
>>64469476Blue shit is usually Loctite which IMO sucks. The best threadlocker I’ve used is VC-3, if you follow the instructions, it will never fail. I once put too much on (100% coverage of threads) for my RMR (6-32 screws) it twisted my Allen keys trying to get it off
>>64469477Yes, that's a gun. You could have gotten that from an earlier thread. I have the same one. And the same deck. With the same grain pattern. And same lack of timestamp and post number.
>>64469598They want guns with timestamps on reports now?
>>64469597Thanks. I still have my replacement red dot they sent me when the first one died. I bought a dedicated home defence gun and I might as well use it on there. It's on there with nothing right now and hand tightened because I wanted to make sure I liked the fit. Honestly, I'm not thrilled with it and after using larger window optics, I think these small window pistol ones are stupid, but it seems to work just fine. If I gave a shit enough to spend money I'd buy one with a bigger window, but I already own it and if it goes down I can still line up the iron sights.
Why is holosun being so mean about discounting their sights? They hunt down all "price in cart" and even store-wide coupons.
>>64469598Weird flex, those grips are 270 dollars and honestly aren’t that great. The 110 dollar G10 version is just as good
I've been looking at the Sar 9 that PSA has for $200. Has anyone used one of these? Are they good?
>>64469608He started it. Apparently a grammatically and syntactically correct post thoroughly describing the issue in a way that makes Stoeger fanboys and/or red dot shills unhappy means one is an English as a second language student who owns no guns, unless they can post pictures of guns. Now that we have both posted two distinct images of completely different handguns we both own, we can mutually felicitate and think of Ben with the full confidence our optics are perfect in every way. >>64469652I didn't know that. I honestly didn't even look that closely since he's a troll and that's not his gun. Probably.
>>64469669No personal expirence but I've heard good things from the few that have. I do hear it's good "for a budget pistol". Don't expect it to compete with $700 stuff and you'll be blown away with how good it is, at least from what folks say
>>64469677I doubt multiple people in here have the stupidity required to carry a 5k MSRP handgun. It is my handgunI find your post extremely strange by coming up with a strawman about Ben when his content is purely around shooting and not anything about defense. He rarely talks about conceal carry and when he does he says a decent amount of people agree with not carrying a dot. Your post sort of sounds like something one of our resident schizos would post, who absolutely hates being asked to post a gun he owns. I sort of just question how much training with a dot you’ve done or what but in my experience I carry a dot most of the time since I shoot the best with a dot. My draws are more accurate. Rapid fire is much more accurate and faster. If I’m going to get into combat I want to have my red dot since it gives me a better chance of winning.
>>64469710So hot
One thing is true though, my RMR HD battery only lasts 6-7 months, while my SRO or RMR or Holosun would last years
>>64469710Ben's a dipshitYou are a poser try hard clownReflex/hip shooters will always dominate handgun shootings. Period. Full stop. There is no argument. It's fact. No. No. Nope. Definitely not. And no again little boy. It's levels faster. It's unfathomable that some faggot with a 45 tucked into his belt with an optic thinks he is going to even be in the game. You sir, are retarded.
>>64469747What’s going on with those boots, man?
Should I get a glock with MOS, or standard, and send it in to cut?
>>64469781What? You carry a .32 or .380 like some grandma?

Grip tape is decent (unlike skateboard tape which has nothing to do with gripping things with hands, it is made for shoes and is garbage), but it falls off if you actually carry the gun.
>>64470105I mean, this. It just wears and frays, against skin, clothing, hands, etc.>Besides, you can always attach more. Yeah, supposed lifecycle is to reapply regularly.Still I have absolutely no clue why skateboard tape (and talon grips for that matter) would ever go on the gun.

Hey lads, just installed an EGW lightened sear spring into my 1911, and now the grip safety kinda sticks inside with the hammer up unless I grip at a weird angle to pop it out. AND it pops out to the appropriate amount when I engage the hammer but still sticks a little bit.Do I have to bend the right spring even more? It kinda looks like its scraping against the inside which the original never did. It's perfect otherwise and brought my trigger pull down to 3lbs...
>>64470501Bend springs, but I’ve never had to tune a grip safety spring so read a guide

SA-35? Inglis? FEG? Or should I not even deal with clones and go straight for an OG?Anything I do get I will probably still upgrade by taking the mag disconnect out and putting new springs and parts in, like an SFSand if no one can agree, what should I look for and try to check if I can get hands-on any version, in order to try to not get a shitty one?Other than just simply being worn-out or loose

>>64464844tl;dr i'm a 27 year old boomer and i want a .40>grew up in the era of .40's zenith>decide to start carrying>the more I read, the more .40 makes sense to meIDK, guys, all the factors that made it make sense back then still seem relevant now. Am I just being a hipster contrarian, or what? A friend's dad has a .40 1911 that I'm about to buy.
>>64471134On paper .40 is perfect, the execution not so well, the round is good but finding a good platform for it is difficult. You’re basically a contrarian since 9mm is just cheaper all around and .45 still exists .40 1911s probably shoot great
>>64471134shut the fuck up retard you're just a late-20s kid who gets peer-pressured by anons on 4chan to think the thing disliked by the majority MUST be good because media literacy.
>>64471165I', mostly concerned about carjackings (some poor girl got shot at the gas station a half mile from me) and winter clothes (it's cold as fuck here). in both of those situations, 9mm's lower mass really starts to show itself. >>64471149>just a kidhttps://youtu.be/puQJNPaGcYc
>>644712079mm and any common police hollow point is designed around barrier penetration requirements like auto glass
>>6447113440 is underrated, imo its biggest issue is the loads that are most commonly available loads for it are 180 and 165 grain bullets, which especially 180 flies rather slowly. So you need a good expensive bullet like a gold dot to get reliable terminal performance, and wouldn't it not make sense to yeet something like a 135 grain jhp @ 1300 fps, and save some precious lead and get reliable expansion from trash bullet? Well those are also available, double tap and corbon makes them, but they are even more expensive than those gold dots.
I took my Glock 26 Gen 5 and my Shield Plus to the range today and I genuinely think the 26 is a better gun overall with the only real issue being the grips slipping on me after 5-6 rounds but other than that I make my caseI just don't think that the trigger on the Shield Plus is any good, I swear that the trigger safety is too damn small and it can mess with you
>>64469868I have a tub of various kits and supplies but I made an Otis kit for all my Pelicans that would have those calibers in it.
>>64471300sick dude keep us posted
>>64471207Winter clothes are more likely to increase penetration by stopping expansion. They are most likely to make no difference at all. If the argument that 9mm is cheaper and you can practice more doesn't sway you, get the 40 so you can feel like you have an advantage. If you want more than an imaginary edge, rent both, compare groups. If you can reliably hit with the 40 it's objectively better. If you don't, you're wasting money and magazine space for a round you can't control.
>>64471300listen man, no its not. you just like the vibes of the 26 more and like to be a contrarian.
>>64471207anon take your 9mm and shoot your car with it. see how many layers that bullet will go through.a knockoff canada goose jacket is not going to stop a fucking bullet.
>>64471322>canada goose jacketi know those fuckers can be mean but do we really need to make jackets out of them??
>>64471319Anon I can just pull the trigger easily on the G26, the Shield Plus has such a picky trigger safety
>>64469850>5 HK 12 rd mags, and 2 10 rounders.The fuck?
>>64471300Skinny guns are just harder to shoot. Get a plus 2 or even plus 0 on the g26 with some talon grips and it'll rip
>>64471292>gold dotToo many paul harrell videos have prejudiced me towards the speer.>>64471322Some day's I'd like to shoot this thing (fuck vw), but it's more the deflection due to glass than I'm thinking of than the door.
>>64470754They are literally all jammomatics by modern standards. Get whichever one you think is pretty, it will just be a range toy you eventually stop bringing out because it gives you nothing but problems. I haven't shot an inglis or girsan, but I've shot pretty much everything else. The new FN updated design had the best trigger and felt like a really nice high quality pistol with very smooth slide, but it still had abour 4 jams per mag. They just aren't good dude.Pic rel, a couple years ago my coworker found out I was into guns and excitedly asked if I could help her figure out why her gun always jammed. It was an old surplus hi power. I told her to just sell it to someone who thinks it's cool and get something that actually works. You are that someone who thinks it's cool. Skip to the step where you buy something else.
>>64471430>>64470754Do any other handguns interest you? Get one of those instead. Pic is another failure to feed. The SA 35 feels like a service pistol, it rattles and isnt fit as nice as this FN, which is fit nice but still sucks because it's a hi power and hi powers are bad
>>64470754>>64471430I was going to say maybe the Nighthawk Custom Hipower works but then I realize my own track record with Nighthawk, their service is great but I have had to use it way more than any should.
>>64471304I don’t understand why you’d go in on the PRI rear unless you were going to get the riser.

Went shooting today. Rented a Bodyguard 2.0 to compare to my LCP Max. The Bodyguard did indeed kick less like how everybody says and it definitely had a better trigger, but I was getting light primer strikes every fucking mag. It also jammed once using nothing but factory loaded FMJ. The sights suck, or are at least worse than my LCP. My LCP went though three boxes of ammo, plus a couple mags of XTP loads. Not a single jam, light primer strike, or malfunction in any way. The magazines for the LCP were also significantly easier to load. It did kick a bit harder, move more in my hand so I had to adjust my grip when shooting more, and it also pinged my trigger finger enough that it started to go numb at the end of my range session probably around 300 rounds total between the LCP and Bodyguard. (I did also shoot my 380 EZ and Ruger Blackhawk but didnt include that ammo in the count)Overall, I was thoroughly unimpressed by the Bodyguard. If I didn't have the LCP Max and was planning on buying one to carry, I probably would buy the LCP again over the Bodyguard 2, especially considering that the Bodyguard is almost 100 bucks more expensive and is less reliable. I think that all the LCP needs is one of those silicone sleeves or maybe talon grip tape stuff to reduce the shifting in the hand. Aside from that, I liked my LCP a lot more than the Bodyguard. I think I am going to buy an Mcarbo extra power recoil spring to see if that helps tame the recoil down a bit to more favorably compare to the Bodyguard. Overall, the Bodyguard felt a little nicer, but was significantly less reliable. The LCP isn't really something you want to go shoot hundreds of rounds through at the range, but it's a pocket pistol, you probably arent going to do that anyway. It was, however, so much more reliable. The bodyguard feels like a range toy that you can carry while the LCP feels more like a purpose built carry gun.
>>64471723Oh yeah I also forgot to mention the safety. My LCP Max is an older one that does have a safety, but the bodyguard I rented did have one. It was rather difficult to put on safe, but came off safe easily. I like the safety on the Bodyguard. You really have to want to put it on safe to get it there, but it easily comes off safe. You can totally ignore the safety if you want and you won't accidently flip it to safe while shooting or carrying. If you plan on getting a BG2.0, get the one with the safety. Manual safety equipped models tend to have a higher resale value if that matters to you.
>>64470080It's 100. That's baseline.
>>64470241I like my glock and HKs. There's I other pews I would like too. I appreciate different flavors.
>>64469948>>64469926I have one in black anodized.The good: It is nice and weighty and does grip the non-dominant hand very well.The bad: it comes as one size and it is smaller than the large backstrap. It is not compatible with the OEM hold backstrap spring (the long U-shaped bar) and is held with a metal rod (pictured at the bottom of the backstrap.)Time will tell if polymer flexion will chew it into the frame at any noticeable degree but nothing to report after 1k+ rounds with it so far.If you're already buying LTT the the cost of admission shouldn't bother you.
Today I was reminded why I love the S&W 686 and the .357 Magnum cartridge
>>64471812Why do you love it?
>>64471819686>solidly built>can be outfitted with beautiful wood grips>has great holster options>great trigger>beautifull stainless look.357 Magnum>turns heads at the indoor range >intimidates Glock only normalfags (I love Glock but fuck Glockonlies)>is actually powerful, but not as brutal as .44 magnum>so much more satisfying to shoot well
>>64471149>and .45 still existsFor 1.5x the cost and not much better performance. Why is "ammo cheaper" only advantage for 9mm?
>>64471857Well, cheaper, more capacity, better handing, and the historical fact that the USA was the only member of NATO that used .45 ACP and ultimately made the switch to 9mm for streamlining.
>>64471219auto glass is not a barrier kek, auto doors and engines are a barrier
>>64470241decided against the glock after consulting /hg/
>>64471902You’re an absolute retard. Car doors are 2mm or less of sheet metal. Tempered auto glass poses a significant barrier and deflection due to the rounds hitting it at an angle.
>>64471905>mad because Kamala wasn’t elected and didn’t get free gender reassignment surgeryIt’s okay to be angry, paco. Express yourself as much as you need to.
>>64466950>6 terro packsMake your own. Borax and citric acid. A sufficiently sticky grease around the feet would be a durable barrier.
How much yall want to bet that the Glock V models will be 100 bucks more expensive.
>>64471935Oh, it was weedengineer thinking car doors are barriers. What a fucking retard. Maybe he really is 85 IQ, is that high for Spain?
>>64465417I have one, its pretty sweet, the scaled serrations are sharp in an almost impractical kind of way.Looks really good for sure, functionally its pretty good also its very accurate.
>>64471944surplus/trade ins of other models may become more common. i give it less than 6 months after release before a switch or equivalent device is made for them too.
>>64471948That's about average
>>64471723Shame that the BG 2.0 had issues, smiths QC is pretty piss poor. I had two light strikes with the other Detroit anon using the S&B ammo that had previously not given me troubles so it looks like it's time to send it back to smith.Never warrantied a gun before out of my state of residence, anyone got any ideas how that works? Do I just need to wait until January when I'm back in Florida to get this done?
bluejays fan here, I need a gun and a single bullet. any recommendations?
>>64471984I sent a revolver to them once, fill it out the form, they email you a FedEx label, and instructions, you ship with that label, wait a long time, they ship it back directly to you.
>>64472004Not too long ago I had to send a J frame back to smith because the hammer pivot pin snapped and the basic aluminum frame J frames have that pin as part of the frame. Because a piece of the frame was broken, they replaced the whole frame, but because the serial number got replaced, they apparently had to send it to an FFL and I had to go out and pay another transfer fee and fill out another 4473. Fucking annoying. The pawn shop I sent it to only has 20 dollar fee, but still, I had to pay extra money and take time out of my day to drive out there because they cant make a frame that won't break. . .

I really need to get my slides nickel plated but no one is responding
>>64471723>silicone sleeves The Hogue grip makes a huge difference. I don't know about the max. I would think it would make it too thick, but on the single stack lcp2 it's perfect. It only makes the gun as thick as the holster so it doesn't add net thickness and it removes the sting from the snappy recoil. You are giving up 3 rounds but if that's your concern you should probably upgrade to one of the many tiny high capacity 9's the industry has been flooded with in the last 6 years.
When I click the shipping info button or the order form button, it dosent work. It requires I sign in/make account for something. Does it work for you guys?http://www mahovskysmetalife.com/
>>64472549You need to go to the stupid questions general.
>>64472004>>64472022Why can’t s&w make revolvers anymore? Very sad decline in quality. Reminds me of remington under freedom group where I had to send back my 870 3 times before it worked correctly.
>>64464844Is the P30L with threaded barrel from the factory is something that exists in the US ? I can't find any in France. Some websites list the P30 threaded, but out of stock for ages.
>>64472725No. I had to buy the threaded barrel for my standard p30 separate.
>>64472725It is not. And you can check the HK website to learn more about each UPC.https://hk-usa.com/product/p30l/
>>64465082>you're literally unsafeMy pistol was locked and loaded before I removed the magazine and cleared the chamber unconsciously so that makes me safe to a fault if anything>>64465105We're in the third month of me not doing anything wrong; it's time for you to let bygones be bygones
>>64472864Is this what you look like?>>64471832
>>64468512Lights on carry guns are almost useless. Ambient light is everywhere, and if I were in a pitch dark location, I would need to use a handheld to identify a potential threat anyhow as using a WML is dangerous and illegal. Nobody ever thinks about this. What would a WML guy do in this situation if there were a threat? Drop the handheld and potentially blind yourself? Seems stupid.
>>64468445Obviously a 1911 is tier 1. I personally wouldn't carry a cocked and locked 1911, to each their own. As far as DA is concerned, which is much safer, the px4 series has a very smooth DA pull from the factory. You could add the Langdon trigger kit, or just put in a lighter mainspring. I bought a used px4 compact with the Langdon upgrades and the DA pull is phenomenal. My stock subcompact is still smooth but noticable heavier.
>>64468588I have an acebeam tac AA and it's a great choice for a relatively lightweight carry light. I still keep a AAA light on me as a backup, and because it has a moonlight low, but the TAC AA I have is programmed for turbo only and has great output for the size. It's 23 bucks on Amazon, totally worth it. The blue versions have more throw.
I don't like revolvers.

He's acting like ppanon now, its like how all animals are turning into crabs except its namefags turning into faggots.
>>64472940They only make sense as a small backup gun or for shooting a big hunting round.
>px4 compact has right side slide release>px4 compact carry 2 does notWhy? Is it possible to just buy the ambi slide release and put it on a px4 compact carry 2?
>>64469845My current edc is .40 but the caliber is irrelevant to my statement, obviously. As is platform aside from accessories and carry style.
>>64472916I said I usually only carry the AAA. I also have one in my car, one in my work bag, one in my lunch bag, one in each nightstand, etc. I did research an actual "blind your ass" light that I use when it's actually dark when I go out. I legitimately forget what it is, but they do free custom laser engraving. I got my wife a smaller cheaper light from a different company that took a month to ship gun china. It's almost as bright but heats up terribly. She sees that as a feature since it doubles as a hand warmer. (We also have 3 fire extinguishers and many smoke detectors.)This all came about from researching a light for my home defence gun. That ended up being an Olight Valkyrie pd turbo. Speaking of which, what's the best way to buy cr123a USA made batteries? The hand lights are rechargeable but the gun light batteries are disposable.

>>64473034Yes
>>64471091>>64471430>>64471441Weird, I had an FEG in the early 2000s and I shot the piss out of it without any problemsat all. Even with the Pro Mag I have for it. (9mm was like $6 for a box of 50). It was great. I guess I got lucky. The polish and blue job on it was spectacular, too.The only reason I don't still have it is because I was a poor kid at the time and had to sell it for rent money.
>>64471993Realize that sportsball is gay and pozzed and none of the players give a shit about you
>>64471134Handguns are pretty shit and the difference between calibers is pretty minimal when you take half a step back. 9mm is the ultimate compromise of capacity, recoil and effect on target. Everything else radiates out from there. .40 is fine. .380 is fine. .45 is fine. .400 Corbon is fine.They are all fine and there isn't a hell of a lot of difference in them until you start getting into the silly calibers.
>>64473211Some people get lucky I guess, what amazes me more is the promag worked flawlessly. Here's a SA 35 with a failure to feed. I've talked at length about how I like the BG 2.0, but mine has light strike issues and I just send a repair request form off to Smith. Sometimes good designs get built wrong, sometimes bad designs get put together so well they have no problems.
>>64472719>Why can’t s&w make revolvers anymore?Because they are in a shit position of trying to make both revolvers AND money, which is difficult when you can just shit out a plastic turd that does everything better for 1/4 the price.
Is everything OK at home, Korth?

Anyone have experience with the Stealth Arms Platypus?TL;DR it's double stacked 9mm 1911 which takes glock mags. I guess it's maybe technically a 2011 but I am not sure the exact distinction. Point is - Rented and shot one at my local range, felt really great to shoot, the guys at the shop recommended it, thinking about picking one up. The cool thing is that you can get one custom made to order in terms of coloring and design on their website so although the one I shot was all tacticool, I'm able to construct something that looks a little more 'traditional' while still being a more modern gun.Anyway is this legit?
>>64473292One anon has one and I got to shoot it a few times, it’s good. It’s aluminum frame but still shoots very good. I heavily heavily recommend getting the RMR cut slide since RMR direct mount 1911/2011 are rare due to the screw pattern. You get a cover plate but if you ever wanted to mount an optic you’d have one of the best mounts and BUIS set ups I’ve ever seen.
>>64473292Oh and it’s a double stack 1911, not a 2011 due to it not having a two piece frame like a 2011. It’s single piece frame like the older Para Ordnance double stack 1911s (RIA still makes them).
>>64473292They seem good from what I hear, folks like em but the lead time is crazy once you really get down to customizing it, which kind of defeats the purpose. Look into some of it's competition like the Kimber 2k11. I know you think taking glock mags is a huge bonus, but when the Kimber 2k11 ships with 3 mags and if you want extras thet are only $20 more than a glock mag... what's the advantage there? You're going to spend $200 more on a platypus to save $20 on a couple mags?If you want a 2011 you should get one, they're fucking awesome, I just want you to consider other options. Seems like you're tunneling in on the first one you handled.
>>64473290>si=
>>64473318Prodigy mags are like 35 dollars each if he needs cheaper mags
>>64473292I've got 2, they're both great. Handled a new one recently and the build quality still seems to be good. They kinda lost a lot of buzz recently just due to wait times and the Staccato HD but if you want a double stack 1911 that takes Glock mags they're a great option.>>64473318Even other cheapo 2011s could be worth the money. They're definitely more expensive than the performance you get out of them a lot of times but if they run and bring you joy then great. Biggest difference will be the fit but Springfield, Kimber and Stealth Arms all seem roughly equivalent in my mind from the ones I've handled. The Stealth Arms triggers are notably better though.
>>64473251>what amazes me more is the promag worked flawlesslyYeah, it's definitely a unicorn. I bought it when I had literally no idea about anything involving guns. I had a 1911 before that and it didn't work with pro mags, or any other mags really. That's why I get the Hi-Powr clone.>Here's a SA 35 with a failure to feed. Man, that's extremely disappointing. I was hoping to get one of those. It was such a good gun that I always intended tobget another one, but I got into SIGs and never went back. I still have a couple of Hi-Power magazines, though including the Pro Mag. It's the one on the right.
>>64473290So, I'm going to take that as a hard NO.
1911s are gay
>>64473279their sport revolvers always have funny colors.
>>64473372They are alright, but people get way, way, WAY too excited about them.

>>64473372Interesting hypothesis
>>64473410Leave my friend PB alone.
>>64473318i mostly just want a 2011 that looks like a 'classic' 1911 like the springfield loaded or something
>>64473415I do too, your only luck would be Alchemy Custom Weaponry 2011s, which sometimes dip into the lower 2000s on gunbroker. Older STI 2011s also show up but not as classic looking as the ACWs. Then other times I want something that looks like this

>>64473477yeah but thats not why you buy them
>>64473415You only bet is really the quantico hi-cap by alchemy. 2011s are, by definition, gadget guns. They appeal mostly to people who like gadgets and toys, so the people who like them have absolutely dogshit aesthetic taste. Combine that with gun people in general being working class conservative men, who also have dogshit taste, and you get some truly awful designs. Alchemy and maybe a few others are the only ones who seem capable of exercising any sort of restraint.

The 507Comp is a decent optic and one of the few optics that work well with Nighthawk's IOS system, forward cantilever dots like the RMR HD and SRO cover up the set screw that holds on the optic plate making the quick change design pointless since you need to remove the dot to swap optics. Otherwise you can swap optic plates and to the iron sight cover plate in 30 seconds without loss of zero.

Why can’t someone make a 2011 geared towards duty/service/defense rather than gamer competition stuff.I’d rather have a more affordable one with a good, but still appropriate-for-duty weight trigger and a more brutalist aesthetic rather than power rangers.

>>64473494>so the people who like them have absolutely dogshit aesthetic tasteHey now I like them and I don't.... fuckAnyways >>64473415 if you want something you can buy now and/or a cheaper option the Tisas B9r is pretty traditional looking, although not stainless like the guns you seem to want based on the traditional 1911 examples you posted
>>64473575>>64473580>$2600They need a line without all the fancy stuff.A clean 4 lb trigger.Less overbearing serrations.I’d pay $1500

>>64473607>>64473601
>>64473601I forgot this thing existed, one anon has one and speaks highly of it. He bought it for the full 1.5k MSRP Not a true 2011 but more classic than the Kimber 2k11
anyway to buy a 1911 with confirmed tojo kills?
>>64473601dude just buy a fucking tisas already. you clearly just want a 1911 for vibes and not functionality.
>>64473614This looks pretty sweet
>>64473580That is such a retarded gun for anything except gungamez.Glocks may be boring, but they really do everything you need a military/police gun to do and they are cheap as chips at institutional prices.Stop wasting tax money on retarded shit.
>>64473670Outfitting police with Staccatos is a drop in the bucket and potentially saves money on training as many people will say shooting a Staccato/2011 is much easier than shooting a glock.If you want to peruse what tax payer money has been spent on https://x.com/RandoLand_ushere's 3.3 million for Trans Rights in Kazakhstanhttps://www.usaspending.gov/award/ASST_NON_72011522CA00004_7200
The idea of having to use a safety on a duty gun is dumb

>>64472049I'm just saying that you got off well anon, I havent bought USP mags in years because of the price
>>64473614Nogunz ITT told me Kimber is le bad. Is that true?
>>64472170My police trade in M&P 40 that I spent $200 extra on upgrades alone and even bought 3 mags for
>>64473618>you clearly just want a 1911 for vibes and not functionality.This is literally the only reason to buy one in current year and there's nothing wrong with that.
>>64473600>... fuckAt least you know you're a tasteless, kitsch loving pleb lol. Really though, not everyone has to like Wielgus tier artistry, but it really says something about the aesthetic values of the gun market when an ugly gun like the Glock is the best looking of the mass-market, service-type pistols because it's the only one that exercises any measure of visual restraint.
>>64473694Yeah, but how much will it cost to pay to have multiple surgeries and a lifetime of physical therapy and home nurse visits when one of those things has the slide stop jam the magazine and some cop gets shot in the spine or whatever. Just get the fucking Glock already.
>>64473709You people really take the difficulty to flip off a thumb safety too far to the point you look stupid to anyone who can competently do it. I understand DEI and bottom of the barrel hires for police departments >>64473764They seem to be on a major upswing but them being dog shit was true. The one anon with the KDS9c likes his alot and my Kimber 2k11 has gone 800~ rounds of .45 ACP and +P with no issues but that's not a big deal. The kimbers of old would have already failed by now. Ben Stoeger's went 10k rounds with no parts issues
>>64473709I'd extend that to carry guns as well.
>>64473778Was hat gun made for Jay Gatsby?Also, Glocks aren't ugly. They are just boring.
>>64473778>no beaver tail>nonexistent sights>no trigger guard undercut>no front strap checkering>thin shallow serrations gather skin cells and dirt and become useless quickly>original small ejection port making ejecting live rounds difficult in addition to it's worse ejection properties 4/10
>all these custom 1911s>here I am with a basic Colt Govt Model
>>64473818yes man we get it you have a nighthawk congratulations. we are ALL aware you have a nighthawk.
>>64473292>>64473415i also was looking into getting one after playing around with one at the range. I was playing around with their customization on their website which is pretty fun, i like your design. i have no idea if it would look great IRL or if it would look plastic-y. i saw a nickel plated 1911 at the store that looked like this but it shot .45, it was the sexist gun
>>64473821
>>64473801Agreed. I like either a striker or a DA/SA carried with the hammer down.
>>64473842>it was the sexist gunSounds like a based gun to me, where can I buy it?>>64473847It looks nice man, I do eventually want to get the nighthawks, springfields, and ed browns, but the basic Colt Govt model had to be my first
>>64473848I think DA/SA is the best compromise since you can just train to handle that time between the first DA shot and the first SA shot
>>64473854True, you should really know what you want before buying a pistol you realize isn’t the one.
>>64473818>no beaver tail >nonexistent sights >no trigger guard undercut >no front strap checkering >thin shallow serrations gather skin cells and dirt and become useless quickly >original small ejection port making ejecting live rounds difficult in addition to it's worse ejection properties Wow, you have properly identified a pre A1 1911. At least the person who owns that gun knows it's more of a decoration than a viable weapon.
>>64473847That's a man. The Colt os passable, though.
>>64473864I actually managed to talk my dad out of buying a Glock 26 with that mindset
>>64473862>I think DA/SA is the best compromiseGiga Chad take.
>>64473902Thanks On my way to get some Pizza Hut I just had a thought how I can carry 35 rounds of 9mm in sweat pants and with a leather holster
>>64473813The gun is old, but it was just a generic Colt government model until 1997 when Wielgus worked on it.>glocks are just boringYes. Their purposefully utilitarian design language of a minimally milled piece of barstock on a basic grip is boring as fuck. However, that makes them visually restrained when other manufacturers can't help themselves from bejizzling their guns with random cuts and bullshit.>>64473818Says the retard with grip serrations pointing the wrong way and a front sight without a rear.>inb4 muh quick changeYou already are relying 100% on the red dot. If you were such a wishy-washy pussy you'd just commit and take the front blade off. You could have had all that stuff you wanted on a nighthawk that wasn't ugly, but you're too gauche to appreciate nitre bluing.
>>64473910>shithut instead of pizza from a good local place
Well I really like the Glock 26 and I've decided to buy a proper IWB holster for itNow I just need to train more with it
>>64473919If you don't live near a place with a decent history of Italian immigration, there are no good local pizza places. When I moved to Tennessee, the local places legitimately sucked and the best pizza was either Dominoes or Digiornos. It sucked.
>>64473939Skill issue, or better yet, buy yeast, salt, and flour and bake that shit for 25 minutes at 350 degrees
I wonder if the "Gen V" slide finish will be good as Gen3. I have my doubts it'll actually be called Gen V because that's already the title of some Amazon slop [The Boyz spinoff]. It would be extremely ironic for the Glock Performance trigger to become stock when they wouldn't even include combat sights the last 40 years unless there's going to be a price hike which would be risky in this economy>>64473411His jiving doesn't start until he feels "bored"
>>64473962The Glock V series just has too many red flags for meThere's a reason why I wrapped up my Gen 5 suite with my recent Glock 26 purchase.
If glock would have just dropped Gen 6 instead of doing this Gen V crap I doubt people would have gotten this angry.
>>64473917
>>64473966>recent Glock 26 purchaseHope yours came with factory +2 mags. Tried a Glock 43 once myself and I gotta say they extensions are a must !
>>64473994Nope, they were factory 10 roundsNot bad but I have factory 12 rounders on order
>>64473511That’s actually based af
The G26 makes no sense unless you carry it with out the mag extension

Xe is not ok in the head>muh gook women are prettyTrump hates gooks btw>>64471935>muh ANGLECope. Also, Jeep Wrangler doors can be easily 5mm of metal. And the sheet metal is not the only part that's present in a door. There could be more metal and there is definitely more plastic. Even if your bullet penetrates it, which I'm not arguing on a direct hit, it loses impact. It could also hit pillars/columns/frame and just get stopped. >>64471954You do not wanna get into IQ comparisons by country, anon
>>64474152>Trump hates gooks btw
>>64473962Surely V will be dlc like gen5
>>64474015Some tripfag here was going to build a G26X, which kind of sort of makes sense, at least it's shorter than 19.
