Old (1918) and New (2026) edition What are your oldest and newest guns? Guide: https://files.catbox.moe/9g5sv2.pdfPastebin: https://pastebin.com/gs6mLNikPrevious: >>65112940
There more I learn about the USP, the more I appreciate Glock
can you not get tisas 1911s anymore? They're sold out everywhere and I was about to get one.
>>65120358Tisas has broken it's relationship with SDS, over complaints of them pricing them too low versus the quality of the guns. Tisas is still importing 1911/2011s under MAC, which has 2 1911s and a few 2011 models. The new Tisas USA (?) 1911s will be 75 - 150+ dollars more than previously. They now have made TFB host Kaya their new CEO. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SonRC8B7cEg&He's kind of a brown James Reeves
Do any of you pocket carry? I have a snub nosed but I'm worried it will be too heavy for pocket carry and I should get an air weight instead.
>>65120368No, I'm actually very against it but I understand people have different needs.
>>65120358tisas split with their importer https://youtu.be/SonRC8B7cEghasans dog is now in chargeits going to be months before it comes back probably more expensive
>>65120376still worth it to wait or do I go RI/Citadel for a cheap 1911?
>>65120368All the timeIt's so easy to carry and nobody notices unless your gun pops out
>>65120379What do you mean they're out of stock everywhere?https://www.gunbroker.com/handguns/search?keywords=tisas%201911&pagesize=24&sort=4&buynowonly=1&condition=1They're here. Just not at the prices people are used to seeing them at. PSA is still doing their 330 dollar 1911A1 deal.
>>65120351>Crying about optic mounts when optics weren't a thing when the Gen 3 and USP were new>Crying about 15 round mag capacity when that was the standard back in the day and Glock kind of made 17 rounds popularAlso the USP is better in .40 or .45 anyway, 9mm is kind of pointless unless you want to save cash or streamline your calibers
>>65120379depends why you want it.if its solely based on price buy whats available while its available.if you wanted a specific tisas model for whatever reason wait for it to restock.
>>65120375do you feel differently if someone has a holster specifically for pocket carry?
>>65120413I already have a lot of handguns and I only have room for a few more, like a CZ-75B, P10c, or a Colt Python
>>65120412Yes, I'm sick of larpers who will tell you that pocket carrying a revolver is superior to X, Y, and Z because of how easy it is, how you can shoot through your pocket (something they never ever practiced), or whatever. I saw some brazillian communist post some meme about how it's superior and it's firmly cemented how stupid it is to me and it's for larping faggots. Having a pocket holster is a big help, with and without is miles of difference. I know since I've done it. Maintaining alignment of the gun in your pocket is good, it helps actually drawing the gun, something I suspect many proponents of pocket carry never actually practiced. It also breaks the silhouette of the gun too. >I don't want belt clips Enigma or Concealment labs, I have an enigma and like it alot but I think the concealment labs system could be better. https://www.phlsterholsters.com/phlster-enigmahttps://concealmentlabs.com/concealment-linerSince the concealment labs system would be more easily compatible with holsters, you can swap holsters way easier, and tweak your set up even more. >I don't want to seem like a tryhard carrying a glock 19 and a spare mag so I'm going to carry this 5 shot revolver I barely practice withAre you taking your life seriously? We're talking about self defense here. If pocket carry is what you need, then do it, but do it smart and practice actually drawing. Get a shot timer and practice draws at home like Travis Bickle in the big 26. Having a gun > not having one, I've shoved handguns into my jacket pocket before to run a quick errand since I didn't have the <1 MINUTE it would take me to go get my engima rig and put it on. >I'm a libtard and gaythen shoot yourself
>>65120413Quit posting this shit. It's a great gun and I recommend it to anyone trying to expand their striker fire collection
>>65120413well frankly it gives me the ick
>>65120450I'll probably get one eventually
>>65120390They're being evaluated by today's standards because both are still in production as of 2024>USP is better in .40.40 => women => USP>or .45Glock 21 outclasses that too
What pistol mag pouches do you guys prefer? I bought pic related but it doesn't feel the most secure, and one of my coworkers using it has had a mag pop out when tousling with someone. I was thinking of just getting a hardshell style one, but I want to know what you guys would recommend.Just bought the angled Esstac ones to try out but still curious about other options.
>>65120462>Today's standardsThen a Glock 17 or 19 Gen 5 MOS is the way to goOr hell, a Glock 19 or 45 MOSAnd in HK's camp, there's the VP9 OR
>>65120444>https://www.phlsterholsters.com/phlster-enigmaShit anon, I wasn't in this conversation at all but this is cool as fuck. Thanks for the link.
>>65120467>>65120462>Or hell, a Gen 6 Glock 19 or 45 MOSWhoops
>>65120467vp9a1 line mogs the standard vp9OR
>>65120471Well I said what I said
>>65120468
>>65120463I answered you at the start of last thread
>>65120476both are great at least
>>65120468yeah, if you appendix carried a revolver it would be infinitely better than pocket carrying it since you have a faster and more consistent draw. You could get some laser cartridges and practice shooting from concealment, retention (hip firing as soon as you come out of the holster), etc. Or wax bullets with the Cowboy Fastdraw kit.
>>65120480I want to see different answers
>>65120470>Gen 6 Glock 19 or 45 MOSPretty much, yeah!
>>65120346Got an old M9 for a good deal. Are there any aftermarket underbarrel rails worth a shit? Seems like the only one readily available anymore is the NC Star one, but I am afraid it would shear off under recoil. I am ruling out the ones that replace the grip panels.

>>65120503AmazingI should give my PDP more love
>>65120507it's weird since the product pictures are 3d printed, but other pictures show injection modeled plastic and then also aluminum versions of it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Beretta/comments/1h3n9bm/finally_found_a_winning_duty_holster_ez_rail/
>>65120351Cry more.
>>65120517oh. It seems their current production one is 3d printed.
>>65120520That's projection. They are both suboptimal in the 2020's but you're crying that the USP9 scored slightly worse
>>65120489>>65120470G19 gen 6 coa is sick as fuckSource: Me.
>>65120545post yours
>>65120547NTA but I sell them at a gunstore, they're sick as fuck
>>65120368Pocket carry is so fucking nice, I highly recommend it.I also recommend ankle carry in the car or any time you will be sitting for an extended amount of time, gun on the opposite leg of your shooting hand.
>>65120547I mean it's a Glock 19... with a COA... nothing special. I got a Tenicor Certum 3 with a small size pillow and it fits and works amazing.I prefer the gen 5 trigger, I got a gen 5 17 with an RCR I shoot occluded and it's pretty peak.
>>65120479You worn this with like basketball shorts or sweatpants where you couldn't wear a regular belt? Seems cool.
>>65120346>footfagUse one of those pistols on yourself.

>>65120648Astonishingly comfy
>>65120523Yeesh, maybe I'll stay away from it. Who knows how strong it is as a 3D printed part
I have a question but I'm waiting for the next thread.
I don't actually own any full sized semi auto handguns, and I've got an extra check this month. For 700$ ish, and a focus on shootability and fun factor,a Beretta 92 seems to be the best option, right? Either that or some flavor of 1911.
>>65120425same. unless a really neat wheel gat falls into my lap i don't really see myself getting another pistol. on my list of pistols i'd like - khar t938 super 1911 in the most gaudy nickle plated virgin mary gripscoonanuspbelgian congo contract hi powerthat's really it unless i find something crazy that jumps out at me for a good deal.
>>65120728glock 17 gen 6 breh>1911unreliable>berettahipster/fat/manchild/neckbeard/tranime shitif you are that much of a contrarian then a PDP I guess?
>>65120728If you're gonna get a Beretta make sure to use the rebate
>>65120718why, we are only 50 posts into this one
I recently got a cz to add to my collection of 9s.I got a 92x with ltt trigger job, 95 import p228 with short reset kit, and a gen3 g19.Of the da/sa ive shot a USP and plan on getting one next. Out of box I think the CZ is by far the worst trigger.
>glock magwell too large for thin metal walled magazines>add xboxhueg ribs to take up space>instead of make 2.5 stack for max bullitsWhy do I have to think of everything?
>>65120755how reliable would a 2.5 stack be? wouldn't you need to fiddle with geometry near the feed lips to work?
>>65120736>Fat >Contrarian Guilty as charged.I'm not going to deny that a g17 is probably the strictly best option. PDP isn't something I ever would have thought of, so thanks.
>>65120757Just chuck some bullets in idk
>>65120755Nothing over a double stack mag has ever been reliable, there is no way Glock of all people would try something cool and interesting like that.
>>65120755>add xboxhueg ribs to take up spaceYeah, you don't know how magazines work
>>65120767Think what the capacity would be without em20 round flush AR mags when
>>65120767The ironing of this post is incredible.
>>65120769might as well stamp a smuckers logo into it because of all the tasty jams
>>65120750
Shot my first match today. I’m so fucking slow, bros.
>>65120789well, 69 now. heh heh heh.
>>65120346Talk me out of buying a PDP.
>>65120805No.
>>65120794What kind of match, how'd it go?
>>65120728Beretta 92 is a good option. I may recommend waiting a little bit more and going for a Kimber Warrior DS or waiting for one used.
>>65120795>we'll, 69 now. heh heh hehUmmm...>>65120805Do it.
>>65120812It’s a weekly thing they do at my LGS after hours every week. A charity shoot or whatever you wanna call it. Had a couple different starts, no shoots, headshot only, and some falling plates. I didn’t shoot terribly and it was a lot of fun. Don’t feel too bad about how I performed, but some of those dudes were speed demons.
>>65120769>>65120772Bet
>>65120807>>65120817Stop enabling my addiction
>>65120805I second this guy. Looked and it turns out I can get some decent deals on PDP directly from Walther... no idea why but I can. Been thinking about jumping on the Glock train but a PDP would be cheaper. $1079 for PDP full size Pro with ACRO or $475 for a standard full size or compact. Not to hijack this guy but for the PDP people what's a solid model for a guy who finally wants to take training serious? Until today I thought a gen 6 G19 COA was the best option but.... PDP got me thinking.
>>65120557S&W now making j frames with a plastic grip shaped like the one on the ultimate carry. wonder if they sell it by itself. gotta be cheaper than the G10 version
>>65120839Don't sweat it, we started out slow too. If you want to minmax your development to speedy gonzales, focus on three things:>Practise getting a sight picture consistently and reliably regardless of position. Leans, crouches, around obstacles, through low ports etc>Practise arriving to shooting positions, bringing your gun on target before you're done moving. Saves a TON of time if you have your sights on target before you take the last two steps because you can just squeeze a round off as soon as the target's fully visible. >Practise switching between targets. You'll want to be off the first target and on your way to the second before your muzzle has time to come down from the recoil. If two targets are next to one another, you should be able to get off all four shots without slowing down between the second and third.
I bought an M9A1 and got my beretta rebate recentlydecided on the $100 visa card so i could get the wilson combat thin grips and maybe some lighter springsdo you guys recommend any mods for the beretta that I should get instead of just grips?
>>65120766>GlockAnon are you dumb?
>>65120794How did your Beretter GTS treat you? I recently got a 92XI that I converted over to DA/SA so I'm curious. Wish Beretta would improve the safety tabs a bit by adding some texturing on the top
>>65121146Before you do anything, make sure to inspect the gun for any QC issues. Ever since Beretta moved its US factory from Maryland to Tennessee, build quality has dropped off significantly.As a way to cut costs, newer 92s ship with really cheap feeling plastic triggers, safety levers, and magazine catches. Replace the plastic parts with steel parts that you can get from the Beretta store.https://www.beretta.com/en-us/product/beretta-factory-92-96-series-steel-parts-E00706
>Payday>Ammoseek showing me 21 cpr 9mmIts a good day
>>65120368I have a p365 and a csx. I used to have a smith 642 but gave it away to a relative.38 special is more expensive than 9mm, but has less power. The 642 is harder to use effectively than the others and has less capacity, but the same cost.Just get a p365 or csx.
>>65120366Ah yes finally you will get the rape prices the EU distributor has been charging all alongThe Raider is STILL cheaper than an M45
>>65121181>21 cpr 9mmIt's still cheaper to reload it

>>65121331Who cares I shoot too much to bother with that.
>>65121365Do you play videogames?
>>65121366Not that much anymore.
>>65121369Good answer
>>65120611I do this with the hc belt its pretty comfy
>>65121146You don't need to spring the cost for the WC thin grips unless you absolutely want the insignia on there. LOK grips work just as well
>>65121380meant for >>65120648
>>65121180NTA but I have yet to see major Beretta USA QC issues other than them just not making their budget end models to a lesser grade than they used to be made to. I've got an M9 and while the slide to frame fitment isn't perfect, it's fine. I've also got a 92XI and it's excellent despite only costing like 100-200 more ostensibly than a base model M9. On the side of the plastic parts, ya they sorta suck, but really it's just the plastic trigger that sucks imo. Get a metal trigger bow and swap it out and everything else is fine. I guess if the plastic guide rod breaks then replace it with a metal one but whatever, I have never met anyone who actually had that happen to them ever
>>65121369What gaems?
>>65120346I'm going to seethe here for a minute. Walther discontinued the q4 sf. I bought it because it was still on their website and seemed to be a premiere firearm for them. Currently, parts are barely available other than custom made barrels and some parts from the q5. I love the gun, I don't like the pdp. I spent two years registering my q4 on my carry permit (nyc fag). How can walther not support this firearm long term? It was positioned as a carry ready ppq in steel. It has the best trigger of all firearms I have owned. I'm so disappointed that it's basicly an obsolete very expensive gun. Once it breaks it will just be over. What do I do. Go through the paperwork of selling it for a pdp sf compact? Idk. I'm seething.

Is PMC Bronze still the minmax for range ammo that isn't steelcase?
>>65121331is your time worth nothing?
>>65121664>is your time worth nothing?Do you play videogames?
>is your time worth nothing?Discouraging hand loading the most common pistol caliber on the planet is absolutely a deliberate psyop and I'm don't pretending it's not.

My range buddy is a huge supporter of israel and wants his next gun to be israeli but doesn’t want a jericho. Are there any lesser known israeli handguns available here in the us or can we only get IWI?
>look at me!>I reload 9mm! >pay attention to me
>>65121711A few of the Beretta small caliber pistols were extensively used by Mossad for their agents. Bul Armory is Israeli, they make Glock clones and their own 2011 which uses a proprietary magazine and grip (it’s not compatible with standard 2011 parts). They are nice guns.
>>65121711>but doesn’t want a jerichoWhat is he, gay?
>>65121719Those 2011s look like something he’d like.>>65121722He hates the tiny CZ style slides. He’s a lefty and can’t use the slide release.
>>65121715Why yes as a matter of fact I do reload every 9mm case I find. How can you tell?
>>65120805There's really no reason to not buy a PDP.I only got to shoot my compact once so far but I love it
I'm trying to decide on my new EDC. I typically appendix carry a Taurus 605. It has never had any issues, but it gets cumbersome after awhile. Sometimes causing lower back pain(I'm old not fat). Lately when I go out alone or to safer rural areas with my family, I'll pocket carry my NAA mini .22wmr. I love the lighter weight and want something comparable that's not single action.P32. 6.9oz NAA guardian 15.6 ozRuger lcr 13.5Walther ppk 19ozThe Keltec or an air weight revolver are the top two contenders atm.I'm also open to other suggestions in that weight range for either pocket(with holster) or appendix carry.
>>65120805So there are two issues with PDP as far as I'm concerned1 Its slide is thicker than 9mm glock and more in line with 45/10mm glocks, if you want to carry iwb, PDP is mediocre2 I don't really feel that way myself, but people who press trigger very fast have been saying that it's snappy, has more felt recoil, so it will shoot slowerEverything else about PDP is absolutely top tier.
>>65121711>wants his next gun to be israeliThe Masada Slim is hugely underrated
Anyone else waiting on the g43x oem 15 rounders? I preordered a few weeks ago.
>>65121749Yeah but the pdp and the ppq before it while they have "compact" models, are basicly full sized service guns. They are not competing with the Glock 19 crowd. For reference I am the guy who posted above seething about the q4 sf being discontinued. Walters are, in my opinion, some of the best firearms available on the market and are aesthetically pleasing and functional. The triggers on the ppq/q4q5/pdp are some of the best available straight from the factory. My issue with the pdp is more personal on how they took the steel frame, discontinued the ppq variant, and reused all the same parts for the pdp. So what, so I just buy a pdp f cause it's the smallest one?
>>65121751I dont own a 43x and I am not really sold on it.I mean 15 rounds on what essentially is a M&P Shield Plus is neat, but I have that and a Glock 26, and a P365, in terms of micro 9s.
>>65121751I'm thinking I'll wait a bit and see how they pan out, my PSA mags work just fine in my 48 so I'll survive until then
>>65121661yes but it really depends on pricing especially if youre not using it to shoot matches
>>65121755>about the q4 sf being discontinuedI think about buying one of last black diamonds every day. I probably won't and I'll regret it 10 years later.>so I just buy a pdp f cause it's the smallest oneNot really, I don't have one and didn't measure slide with a caliper, but from what I've seen, they just have a thinner grip for women and size S handed men.
>>65120805the people that really like pdps are giant >6'2" chuds and letting smallerfolk use it they really seem to find it punishing even with a modded guide rod. It is personally my favorite of the modern strikerslop stuff though, just make sure you get 2023 production or onward because they redid the optic mountt. giant chud pdpfag
>>65121755pdp f is much more carryable but if youre using it for something other than a ccw (though if youre tall and lean carrying a regular pdp is very much still possible especially during winter) id go for one of the full size models and just use the smaller included backstrap
>>65121745I have a Bodyguard 2.0 non-comp version. 11.6 oz. I pocket carry it in a Sticky Holster SM-2. I wear normal jeans and it's not slipping out of the holster. The design of the sticky holster is thinner at the bottom so the grip appears thicker in your pants which annoys me a little bit. I was going to look at different kydex holsters to see if they're more uniform.
>>65121776yeah like, im suprised walther discontinued the q4 and the q5. recently they have discontinued the ppks and pps, the ppq and the p99. im shocked. like, these are what walther has built its bones on. and its not so much the discontinuing but the lack of support they will offer longterm for these firearms. >build steel ppq that people buy because it will last 100 years as opposed to polymer slop>discontinue it after 5 yearsuh okthought, it does seem like the steel frame pdp compact is basicly the same firearm as the q4 sf...
>>65121707>>65121709>just when I'm about to lube my new echIt's over
>>65121180Oh shut up.
>>65121331>he doesnt filter by free shippinglmao
>>65121516You are obviously too newguns to possibly wear through a firearm and are autistically sperging about inconsequential nonsense. Shoot the gun and enjoy life.
>>65121903There it looks like he doesn't filter by brass case, 21cpr is magtech steel
>>65121912lmaox2 then
>>65121908ive carried a ppk/s with WEST german stamps longer than you have been alive.
>New Gun Tomorrow
>>65121516It's an unfortunate reality that the vast majority of guns will be discontinued and parts will dry up. The only guns mostly immune are ones with a huge extensive aftermarket. Glocks (which is good as they no longer support a lot of models) and 19/2011s are some of the only guns where you are not at the mercy of one or two companies. Just gotta buy a spare one or two of your carry like I did.
>>65121983Or guns with large-scale military/dept. adoption
>>65121983not even glocks are safe
>>65121962Congratulations, I hope you post it
>>65122039It'll take me an additional day to ruin it with customizations, then I'll post it.
>>65121962What's her name, /v/?
For only $3,695+fees, you could have a James Earl Jones Dardick
>>65121912There's nothing wrong with magtech steel.
>>65122084Whoa, boberg revolver
>>65121923If you did you'd know you've never broken a single piece of that gun made with inferior metals and technology, let alone a stronger newer gun. But you haven't. Stop sperging faggot.>>65122085There is when it costs almost as much as brass case. The only reason to debase your gun with steel case you can't reload (i.e. 100% value lost) is if it's significantly cheaper.
>>65122107If you don't reload anyway, why bother with brass
>>65122116>t. extractor manufacturer
>>65122120An extractor costs like 100 rounds of ammo, brass goblin
>>65122130that's half of pastebin's ammo budget
>>65122116I literally just told you why. Just because you leave brass on the ground for someone else doesn't mean it's valueless. You don't have to reload to sell it. Brass is also kinder to barrels, it doesn't physically wear chambers and it wicks heat where steel does not. You will literally never see a competitor using steel case for this reason.You literally cannot win this argument. You are a retard. Just admit you are a retard and keep buying steel knowing that 3 cents per round is not at all worth the sacrifices, nobody actually cares what you do or shoot but acting like a fool on the internet serves no purpose. You didn't find a loophole, you're not smarter than people who buy the cheapest brass ammo they can find.
So I shot my 2011 alongside the glock I bought when they announced they're discounting Gen 5. And honestly I'm just sort of not impressed with my Staccato C2. Any downside with the glock can be fixed with aftermarket parts.>muh ergonomics Go apply some form of stippling or talon grips or whatever the fuck. They offer versions for 2011s anyway.>but the sightsI like my Trijicon fiber optic better than the Dawson precision they ship the staccato with.>the trigger blowsYeah and I'm gonna fix that with a tac trigger in the mail.Maybe it's just me but I don't get all the hype. I would understand versions that are steel framed like the P and the XC for target shooting to get as much performance out of the handgun. But for carry and just like learning to shoot the pistol and compact size aluminum frame seems like a waste. I'd honestly rather just buy a CZ compact at that point. Just my take as a plebian who shoots like 3-4 times a year.
>>65122164>he bought the aluminum 2011
>>65122169They're niggas who bought this piece of shit
>>65121388are the lok thin grips just as thin? maybe im falling for marketing, but the wilson ones say "ultra thin" instead of just "thin" and my thumb has issues with the safety and mag release so i definitely need some help with thin grips
>>65122178Show us your pistol
>>65121912>21cpr is magtech steel>>65121903Get rekt!
>>65122164Literally no one uses sights as an argument between 2011s and Glocks. You can put fucking any sights on fucking any gun.Ergonomics on a Glock cannot be altered in any meaningful way unless you start cutting off and thermal welding new pieces of plastic to the frame. You cannot turn a Glock into a 2011 grip or vice versa. No, the Platypus and other Glock mag using 2011s do not have Glock grips.There is no aftermarket trigger for a Glock that gets anywhere close to even the shittiest 2011. Not even close. Not the same planet. A Timney or Performance trigger fundamentally changes how a Glock trigger works but it still doesn't fuck with the break, reset length or reset force of a shitty 2011. That ebay bullshit trigger you bought doesn't even do what Timney and Glock Performance triggers do. It's literally cosmetic. You just wasted money and are gloating about it.Honestly I've probably typed all this for a troll who hasn't even shot a 2011 because the comparison is laughable, even with a super lightweight compact 2011 like the one you mention. With a full size steel 2011 there is no comparison. Different worlds.Why is this thread so full of retards today?
>>65122212>Why is this thread so full of retards today?First of the month, unemployment checks are out.
>>65122183LOK grips are very thin. I use them on my 92FS and love them
>>65122212He said he only shoots 4 times a year, 2 times more than pastebin
>>65122178>staccato makes a compact gun with a new magazine and frame, making it incompatible with the larger 2011 sphere >immediately invalidate that gun with a newer design that takes more accessible mags and that’s drop safe, has a better optics cut, and has ported versions
>>65122001NTA but good point– going to buy more spares for muh Glawk
These any good or is a Glock 30 a better pick?
>out of 9mm>have to buy a new rooffuuuck I want to shoot my pistols
>shot all my 9mm>need to replace my leaky roof Fuuck maybe that attic shooting range wasn’t a good idea
>>65122508I like mine.
>>65122508>>65122639Looks good but it's a bitch to shoot
>out of 9mm>saved $ because I reload and I can easily afford a new roof and more reloading componentsHell yeah
>>65122643>it's a bitch to shootNot really.
>>65122639I'm kinda surprised that we don't have more M&P 2.0 owners in /hg/. The only reason I don't have one is I have enough polyslop
>>65122637made me laugh, thanks
>>65122508The hellcat is superior to both options, if only because it has an optic ready slide.
>>65122656Oh cool they make a Hellcat in .45?Oh wait, they don't?!?Pay closer attention.
Why did Glock stop making the 34?
>>65122671>boomer cartridgeJust get buffalo bore 9mm. It's 45acp but better
>>65120444>and a spare magTo me this is the dividing line between schizo and acceptable. If you have 15 rounds +, you don't need to carry extra mags. Maybe if you live in St. Louis I guess.
>>65122676>buffalo bore 9mm. It's 45acp but better9mm isn't .45 anon, you're retarded.
>>65122677I carry one (2) spare mag just in the very low chance mine has some sort of malfunction. I'm aware of how unlikely a reload is in a SDU but better have it not need it etc
>>65122677spare mags also double for malfunctions, since dropping the entire mag, clearing the malf, and then inserting your spare one is faster than fishing the first one off the ground. black people are a very good reason to carry multiple and they live in more places than St. Louis.
>>65122647Most of /k/ isn't cool enough for M&Ps
>>65122683>It's 45acp but better
>>65122721>but betterIt's .45 +p, Super or .460?It's not!?!
Anyone know how forgiving Beretta is with their rebates and when you bought a qualifying firearm? Literally got one a couple days before this rebate started. Fuck me.
>>65122647>>65122719I like everything about MPs except the too small grip, the mediocre barrels, and the sights which are a pain in the ass to change. Love me shield plus where none of that matters tho
Somebody’s getting fucked tonight
>>65122643Do you have a reference point on the recoil? Anything its comparable to?
>>65122742>recoilNTA but it's not bad. .45 Auto is a low pressure cartridge. It's not like it's 10mm or a .357
>>65122721Sandals himself rates 45 over 10mm for animal defense
>>65122815^thisBigger bullet = more better
Been working on cleaning up that HARD-R poster for printing. Ruger purged all the old press kits from 14 years ago so I had to find replacement images for some of the guns and did my best to match lighting/colorgrade. Haven't finished backfilling or shadowing, might replace a couple guns if I can find better product photos but unless it's 36"+ it probably won't matter
>>65122782I mean, the Glock 29 isn't that bad so it sounds reasonable
>>65122831I'm very much looking forward to this
>>65120807Holmes hasn’t looked this good in 10yrs…
>>65122917Neither has your mom but I still love her
If you had to carry one, would you rather have 5 rounds of .38+p, 7 rounds of .32apc, or 6 rounds of.32h&r magnum?>inb4 their all anemicHow would you feel if you didn't have breakfast this morning?
>>65122639I kind of want one. The pics make it look as small as my current summer edc, and I love shooting .45, carry my USPc45 for most of my life.
>>65122984Probably the .38 since it’s less gay than the others.
>>65122996Carried*
>>65120750Fuck I forgot about that. I would have spent my money differently if I remembered the rebate. >>65120728Get the beretta.
>>65122996It's a little bigger than a 43.
>>65122984.32 ACP
>>65122984Unless I was inherited/gifted a massive stockpile of .32, I'm not touching it
>>65122984.38 is the only viable answer out of those choices.
>>65120684it isnt strong, i 3d printed some glocks and know a bitmost filaments are susceptible to UV rays and degrade from moisture & UV exposurethose layer lines also do not look super great, it seems a bit 'stringy' so the lines probably arent all properly fused and its gonna snap, especially if you expose to the elements for a couple days
>>651229845 rounds of 38 isnt enough to clean up the city but its enough to mop up the mess this city throws at you
>>65120728watch some john woo movies, the answer is obviously the beretta 92
>>65121685I definitely wouldn’t suggest ONLY reloading 9mm. Do some other rounds too if you’re going to get the equipment. I would focus on other rounds and get 9mm dies once you already have everything and know what you’re doing.
https://palmettostatearmory.com/beretta-92xi-9mm-pistol-4-7-barrel-fiber-optic-sights-black-j92fsr915.htmlIs this a good first Beretta?
>>65123104Everyone should watch the replacement killers this weekend.
>>65123108>and know what you’re doingI reload more in a year then you have in your entire life.
>>65123109>92x
>>65122940I was wondering why her ashes were all clumping together. Where some protection. That nursing home was always chlamydia city.
>>65123130I don’t know if I wasn’t clear enough but I don’t mean “you” as in you specifically.
>>65123148How would I have known that? It wasn't clear at all.
>>65123109It’s okay. Not a fan of the thumb levers or the SAO (which could be converted back to DA/SA with a new trigger).
>>65123155I’ll type slower when I reply to you from now on.
>>65123169
>>65122984If I was doing a small revolver, I would do 9mm. Ammo is way cheaper, you can find it anywhere, the moon-clips will load faster that speed loaders. 38sp is a turd and those other meme rounds are $$$ and can usually only be found online.
Is the flat trigger worth it over the stock trigger on a p320
>>65123263flat trigger on a p365 is worth it over the stock trigger on a p320
>>65123263why in god's name do you have a P320
>>65123263How can anyone else answer for you? We can't pilot your body and feel how your brain responds to what your fingers feelI think flat triggers feel and look stupid as hell and project pretentious noshoots reddit clique aura
>>65123286That is an extremely tasteful ar.

best method to remove old and crusty grip tape from a glock frame?
>>65123329Probably rubbing alcohol
That's as good as I'm gonna make it. I had to stoop to AI image detail for a couple guns. I don't like that but it's better than it was. The only thing I didn't clean up was the diamondplate background and the text shadow for the product namesExtremely large files (identical but for format) should be plenty for even very large printshttps://files.catbox.moe/il117b.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/5rthu2.jpg
The fact that Ruger even did a whole "Hard R" campaign is still funny as fuck to me.
>>65123397So what was Ruger's train of thought with this marketing campaign? Was it out of touch old farts who didn't think it was racist because they grew up when saying negro was considered the overly PC version of nigger? Cocky c-suite who were having a laugh and didn't it mattered because they didn't think blacks bought their guns anyway? Blissfully ignorant boomers who weren't told any different by their workers and tacitly egged on by their token black hires who thought it'd be hilarious if it went to press and blew up in their face?I just think it's all sorts of fascinating how they ran this during Obama 1.
>>65122719I just got the CSX 3.6 instead
>>65123470"hard R" wasn't a thing in 2009or at least it hadn't yet crossed over to white people
>>65123132That anime was great
And the other one anon found, what a champ! I didn't really do anything to this one except clean up a vertical artifact line.Catbox is being gay so have to use jewgle for the large versionhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/19AOtRaqsJhPggPDV-KvcVf1OcqOF0K6F/viewhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1c-f_Jq9aE7vxRQhsFNWBo0eM2zTTNgEi/view>>65123481Sure it was
>>65123487no, it wasn'tpeople understood the difference between "nigga" and "nigger", but the term "hard R" for that difference wasn't common nomenclature the way it is nowthere was no chance of Ruger facing controversy for the ad campaign
>>65123481>or at least it hadn't yet crossed over to white peopleHuh, could've sworn it was but I think you may be right. Google analytics doesn't have much of an uptick in "hard r" until 2010 (with two notable spikes in Dec '07 and Nov/Dec '09), and Urban Dictionary doesn't have an entry with the modern definition until 2011. I can definitely see the old fudds at Ruger not knowing any better until it blew up in their face.>>65123484Season 2 soon.
A legit boomer recommended I get Tyler T Grips for my snubbie. Anyone have any experience with them?
>>65123506Dead business, don't make the mistake of ordering anything from them.
>>65123509I see them going for exorbitant prices on ebay. Like I could get a nice holster for these prices
>>65123506The purpose of Tyler T Grips is to convert service grips into boot grips. In the year 2026 of Our Lord, you can just get J-frame boot grips everywhere made out of anything you can think of.
>>65123506It took me 2 years to get my order and I realized they’re stupid and gay. Get some quality VZ grips instead
>>65123510Real ones are overpriced as fuck, people nostalgic for when that crackhead was doing shitty business and not just out of business. Try Robertson Trading Post or similar, there are a handful of other options and you don't have to spend more than $30.>>65123516It's an aesthetic choice.
>>65123506Also if your snubbie is lightweight, has exposed hammer, and you carry it, consider desantis clip grips.
>>65123516>>65123517>>65123519>>65123509Thanks for the info. I might look into getting new grips for my Model 36
Might get a spare slide catch next, IDK>>65123501Now the mystery is what they meant by Hard R back then– Hard Ruger? Perhaps HARD-R was just "harder" stylized
>>65120536This gun to me is 95% perfect, the only thing I would ding on it is the blacked out front sight. If they made one with a fiberoptic sight it would be amazing.
>>65121322Got a preference between the two? Love my CSX but I've always been curious about the 365s
>>65123289>double reddit
>>65121154I love it. I’ve had it for a little less than a year and have put roughly 2k rounds through it and the only issue I’ve had is that it hates that dogshit ammo they’re always trying to push at Cabela’s. Herter’s or whatever the fuck. Other than that, I don’t foresee myself picking up another handgun for a very long time.
>>65122740What's wrong with the barrels?
I like this picture I took. Something about the yellow lighting makes it look older or something.
>>65122984.38 all the wayI can handload it, and I've gotten fairly good at DA shooting past 10 yards with it
>>65123331rubbing alcohol didn't really do much, adhesive is really baked on from years of use. I might try goo gone next.
>>65123565>If they made one with a fiberoptic sightWhat's wrong with the Dawson Precision one
>>65124241WD-40 and 1,000-1,200 grit sand paper?
>>65120368I pocket carry my taurus 650 and ppks, both which weigh i think 19 ounces unloaded, so they're not light. But I don't feel the weight at all in my pocket. Pocket carry has some disadvantages, but a lot of advantages as well. Sure it's slower to draw, but in sketchy places like a downtown orlando gas station at 2 am, you can casually have your hand on your gun and the groids will never know. It's also extremely comfortable. Even though I usually appendix carry my ppks, or sometimes even my 92fs, sometimes it's nice to actually be able to bend my waist, and pocket carry never inhibits my movement.
