Evolve or die
>>65162436I shot better one handed that two handed today. Neither were good, I need to be able to do this at 100 yards not 10.
>>65162476Really love these pictures and I would love to try to duplicate them but I probably don't have a lighting setup, nor could I justify spending 2k+ on a nice camera when I would rarely use them. Best I can do is this with a cheap Android phone and a Streamlight flashlight. I cannot wait for the Apple iPhone 20th anniversary to come out, that one should have an amazing camera system.
>>65162541Your picture literally looks nicer than the Burt one you're referencing.
>>65162490Literally me
thoughts on a radian ramjet for a concealed gun? Is the concussion with it really that bad
>>65162541Don't crap on yourself, that looks fantastic! I wouldn't have been able to tell it's from a telephoneAlso my setup would probably cost $450 all in by now, DSLRs depreciate like crazy, you can buy everything but the lens dirt cheap (like $200) and there are some REALLY good cheap lenses like the Tamron 28-75 SP and Canon 50mm f1.8. And you don't really even need that "good" because sensor resolution plateaued long ago and you'll have f-stop so high anyway that lens image quality doesn't really matter for this kind of photo. Any kit lens could do great with a 5-10 year old DSLR body and a cheap bounce flash
>>65162552>is the concussion with it really that badIt's not as bad as some comps, like the one that comes on the Hellcat Pro, but it's still pretty bad, yeah. I def wouldn't get one for a carry gun.
>>65162559Every time I look into a camera I see something like a $400 Canon EOS, then its lacking so much even down to still having a MicroUSB charging port when I no longer have a MicroUSB cable. Then if I wanted something like IBIS the price automatically shoots up to $2k. And even at $400 I still can't justify a DSLR when most of the photos I take on vacation(mostly friends/family pics) is on my phone. Sure I can take a picture of a mountain, but the mountain doesn't interest me like a gun or a knife. And I just can't buy even a $400 to take pictures of guns and knives.>>65162544It's not really like most of the pictures Burt post actually stirrs an emotion.
>>65162563nta but have you ever shot it from the hip?
>>65162596No, but I have shot comped handguns from close in to my face (like where your hands would be in the high ready pose) to kinda simulate a scuffle, and it was definitely not pleasant.
>>65162595>assuming it's a charging port at allpro cameras lag wider consumer market devices in usability, a lot of those micro usb ports do NOT charge the battery even if they could, photogs historically use external chargers insteadin current year this lag is a blessing because at least they still don't have soldered memory and log-in-to-use dystopia yet
>>65162490>I shot better one handed that two handed todayI do that a lot, especially at 10 yards with my 92fs. Something about that grip just feels really good one handed. But I do practice one handed shooting a lot, because my 92 is my bedside gun and has no rail, my offhand is for my flashlight.
>>65162595Hey, I bought my $450 camera for guns specifically, then the photography hobby came afterwards. Now I'm the designated vacation pic guy (which I actually like.) So you never know.
>>65162632That's probably another reason I haven't bought one yet, I look at a compact camera that I can just throw into my bag for trips and shit. Then I see a review and it would come with either a charger the size of the camera or microUSB or even worst the USB standards used in the PS3.
Shoutout glawk mayne, glock 6 mayne gotta be my favorite mayne
>>65162636It's pretty fun. I'm so glad someone here recommended it. >no rail, my offhand is for my flashlight.Same but it's a glock 43. When I get a beretta though that's going to be my main squeeze and I don't want any rails it looks too good without them.
Put about 150 rounds into this target practicing draws and input control. Noticed some recoil anticipation where I dip the muzzle as if I was shooting a rapid pair
My entry to the “can you out shoot pastebin” challenge at 7 yards
>>65162643Those orange targets are the best
3 25 yard groupings, the one on the left is the highest score 50/50. Middle is 96/100. And on the right was some of the tightest grouping I have ever done, almost 4 holes touching at 25 but off the bullseye.
>>65162726Better luck next time, pardner

>>65162792That's not a silhouette>>65162793>proof of distanceHere you go
I was cleaning my LCP MAX on my deck and the guide rod fell down between the boards (it's gone). I normally run stock on all of my firearms, but now that I'm in this situation I'm wondering if there is a better after-market option. Any anons have good/bad experiences?
>>65162795>5 shots>20 seconds>can't even stack
>>65162795
>>65162816
>>65162825Put about 150 rounds through that today with a new Wilson Combat “improved” extractor with no issues. Initially I could feed the slide chamber the next round, like a little hiccup when it cycles. The trigger pull is sub 3 pounds but there is something about it that makes me pull shots left and low when shooting .2 splits or so. Also got trigger freeze on it. I don’t get that with my nighthawk. Perhaps the width of the grip is different.
>>65162436there is a sig 229 elite for 700 bones at my local fudd hang out and i'm tempted.they also have a 45 sig for the same price.
>>65162793This isn't /fit/ I'm not recording my shit like it's a PR attempt. Trust me or fuck off.
>>65162857>t.3 yard slow shooter
>>65162837Good range report, keep us posted>>65162839>they also have a 45 sigWest German?
>>65162910Why was the first hole so much bigger than the follow ups?
>>65162857Anyone criticizing shooting without posting their own should be safely ignored.
>>65162910a sig p220, i cant imagine it it an older one because it has a plastic case and i live in commiefornia and we can't have anything cool or nice or fun. but i'll double check on it tomorrow. i've only got 1911s for 45... i should have another 45...
SNAPbin couldn't afford an $8 iwb blackhawk holster on clearance that was linked in /arg/
>Garand Thumb made a video on the Springfield 1911 from last threadYou are buying one right?
>>65162963Destitutebin
>>65162980Really considered the 10-8 Masterclass. No idea why he’s shilling the budget version when the TRP Operator exists or the Masterclass version exists. And the cheap optic he has on it.
>>65162963With tax and shipping that could easily add up $20 all said and done.
Went out shooting this weekend to see how much of a difference the x300t makes as a weight, and what a difference. Makes me wonder what the steel weight will do for my USP45. I took 9 shots at 15 yards 1-handed, not very fast paced. One of the holes I’m not sure where it came from, since it didn’t have an accompanying hole in the wood pallet behind it. Had one flyer when I tried to pick up the pace
>>65162947>the first hole so much biggerI imagine it was because of the initial rigidity of the glass>>65162960>commiefornia>i've only got 1911sYou might as well make the most of it with 10mm Automatisk>>65162953Agreed
>>65163018Is that an idiot scratch on the slide?
>>65162752Yeah I really like them.>>65162980His content has been so boring of late, goddamn. The bar for most 1911s is literally just working, which any non-retarded company can do. The real challenge is getting the fit right, which just doesn't matter to most consumers.For example, my drop in comped barrel most likely is causing me to have poor accuracy with that gun. I have to clean the barrel and bring the factory one to confirm. It's fun that it has no recoil though so I might just deal with it.
>>65162980>>You are buying one right?There are two companies from which I am never EVER buying a firearm from, regardless of quality. Sig, and Springfield.
>>65163118Signi understand but why Springfield?
>>65163125Second amendment betrayal.
>>65163088Pls judge me for my shooting skills and not for the mistakes I’ve made while reassembling the gun
Is the PDP front sight identical to a Gen 5 Glock front or have I been bamboozled? What's the height and width? I have a Glock but no PDP
>>65163138Shoot guns? we don't do that here
>>65163131I feel like that's every company at one time Except my precious Beretta
>>65162809>guide rod fell down between the boards (it's gone)Tragic, will have to purchase a spare for mine after a new holster
Cleaning my USP40 was quite satisfying
>>65163271Oh fuck I have to clean my guns.
>>65163271Man, I don't have any gun that's satisfying to cleanI'll let everyone know if I ever find one
>>65163298Honestly my favorite guns to clean are>Ruger Mark IV Hunter>Sig M17>Sig P226>Sig P365>Any kind of Glock>92FS>S&W Shield>USPEssentially anything that doesn't require tools or has any complicated ways to take apart without them
I like cleaning hammer fired guns more than striker fired.
>>65163308Glocks have too many nooks and crannies on the slide to be satisfying to cleanOn the other hand you can take them apart much further than the average gun without much hassle
I don't mind cleaning guns but I always am afraid I'm going to break something or fuck up the firing pin
>>65163334lol why?
>>65162595I don't use a confounded charging port. I have batteries. I don't transfer data with a bedeviled cable. I use CF cards. What the heck is IBOX? You don't need any of that whizbang nonsense. $2k is crazy, I would never.You only need a good sensor (medium-high prosumer tier from 10 years ago, $150-250), a halfway decent lens (as in $100-150 not $50) and a cheap bounce flash ($40). A bonus would be decent midrange ISO from a somewhat recent body to give you flexibility. You can get my body (7D) for $160, my old lens for $150, my flash for $60. Go look around on fredmiranda.com classifieds. There's Canon 5D body on ebay right now for $170!! That's NUTS imo, though the downside is it limits your lens options because of the big dick full frame sensor>>65162809Chewing gum on a clothes hanger. I'm not joking.
>>65163353Bad experience with cleaning the sear and it caused a light strike issue until I completely broke it down

Fuck the flu, no range day for me, stayed at home doing the worst chore possible, cleaning .22lr rifles.Thanks for reading my blog.
>>65163427I sort of caught a cold myself but now it's decided to fuck off for now
>>65163362Have you tried the island bliss GT kombucha? Best one ive tried yet give it a shot.>>65162963That's like 40 Bar S hotdogs, show some compassion to the poor amongst us.

Hello good sirs. I don't have $4000 to spend on a civilian MP5. Are there any good 9mm/.45acp PCCs that have a classic look, ie don't look like tacticool garbage, and are reasonably priced?
>>65163460the sig mpx? wait for the hk sp7?
>>65163460Hi-Point carbines are unironically not terrible
>>65163460Just buy an MP5 clone for $800-$1500 depending on the brand/deals.
>>65163460Ruger PC carbine Henry Homesteader Beretta CX4 carbine MP5 clones Roller delayed AR9 upper
>>65163480>>65163481>>65163482>>65163487ok thanks for the suggestions. wow those hi points are cheap, but the fudd in me is called to the homesteader
My dad found this old gun on the side of the road (maybe it was used in a crime?). It's pretty dirty. I was going to see if I could sell it for a few dollars at my local gun shop. It's pretty beat up, but I figure it's worth $50 or so.
>>65163688k
>>65163688I have one of those, it's actually pretty fun
>>65163427>was supposed to shoot 40apronahellcatbin's annual ammo budget today>got the fluLiterally me
>>65163702It's a nice little piece. Apart from some of the chip damage on the furniture, the action is nice and smooth. I have too many guns, though (impossible, I know). I don't like that the magazine release is at the bottom of the magwellMy dad also found a 357 police revolver on the side of the road that was in pristine condition. I'm going to hold onto it. It's a real treasure. You can blow a mean hole in something with it. Looks like this one.
>>65163688Your dad found a murder weapon.
>>65163730How does your dad keep finding guns alongside the road lmao
>>65163734Probably...>>65163735He picked the "keen eye" feat during character creation. He's collected a lot of knick-knacks and such by just looking around.
>>65163734>murder weaponMan idk if you've seen the shit criminals load their guns with but the type to leave a murder weapon on the side of the road instead of burying it in a tupperwear full of mountain dew are not high IQ individuals. You think they'd be able to figure out that it loads 9x18 mak and then LOAD it with such ammo?
>>65163780This was years ago. If it were used in a murder, it'd be a cold case file by now.
>>65163735He's actually murdering people and using this as an alibi.
>>65163826There are rumors here of this guy who challenges people to duels and then keeps their gun as a trophy. I bet it's his dad.
>>65163688Nice find, clean and shoot it
>>65163826I wish. He was a real peaceful sort. Drank a lot of alcohol, though. That was the debuff he got for picking keen eye.>>65163854He passed away, so the secret died with him.
If you had to buy any gun in .40, what would you buy?
>>65163880USP
>>65163880USP or Glock 40 and make it my problem solver
>>65163880USP then desperately search for a 357 sig barrel for it.
>>65163880I already own it. S&W M&P. It's the old Gen 1 version. I wouldn't mind getting the new version for the manual safety. I've heard the new S&W stuff has had QC issues, so maybe I'm better off with the old Gen 1.I got bitched at for not carrying it hot by /k/ommandos before. I figure if I need to draw and shoot that fast, I'm probably fucked anyway.
>>65163880I don't have to.
>>65163880something I can easily convert to 9mm
>>65163880G23 gen 4
>>65163895>I got bitched at for not carrying it hot by /k/ommandos before.I have become convinced that the prevalence of this idea, combined with the popularity of AIWB carry is a psyop to castrate gun owners and prevent us from breeding.
>>65163895>>65163907>never herd of the Tueller Drill
>>65163915Yea man, not even John Wick could draw, flip a safety, and/or rack a slide before that terrifyingly fast encounter.
>>65163880maybe a pcc and run something hot for HD. never looked at a pcc in .40 but im sure you could swing a stick and hit 10 good ones for 600$ ish
>>65163938You had the safety on with no round chambered?
>>65163915Inside 20 feet, I'm probably cooked either way if I'm passively walking around, and they decide to start stabbing like a fucking ninja. If someone is talking shit and I'm paying attention to them, maybe it might make a difference in the 20~30 foot range? This is assuming they've not brandished a knife yet, or I've not seen the knife. The time between drawing and shooting vs racking the slide before shooting was negligible in my testing. If they already have a knife out and I can see it, I'd probably GTFO rather than go full Indiana Jones on them. If for no other reason than it does not look good in court if I gunned a dude down when I could have fled. If he starts chasing me with a knife, all bets are off, and he's target practice. I can rack the slide while running, and if he's dumb enough to run into my bullets, that's HIS problem.If someone is brandishing a bladed weapon
>>65163880Beretta 96
>>65163940Dude you’re so out of touch with the current market it’s not even funny, change those numbers to maybe 4-5 decent ones and expect to pay over $1,200 for them.
>>65164036i found 6 for under 600$ in a 40 second google search DUDEEEE
>>65164041Lol post them then. I bet they’re all Hipoints.
>>65164052hi-point, taurus, s&w, kel-tec, ruger, and some ar conversions were all under 650$ on gunbrokera better question is why does that make you angry?
>>65164061>He didn’t post them
>>65164067you want me to screenshot a listing from each of those companies and post them over the course of 6 separate posts, when you could very easily verify yourself what i'm saying? all to assuage your anger over cheap decent carbines? gunbroker is free, you don't have to make an account, filters aren't hard to navigate
>>65163366It probably has some of the same microbes in it that pussy does no cap
>>65164073>He’s incapable of making a single post with some links, or any link at allAnd that’s how we all know you’re full of shit.
Is there a dumbasses guide to inspecting barrels?I recently got a second-hand barrel from a friend who upgrade to something nicerHe let me have his old barrel because its got a nice target crown that i dont have on my handguni dont think theres anything wrong with it but id like to just know what i have before I start shooting with it
>>65164137Has identifiable rifling? > Yes > G2G just shoot it
>>65163780You'd be surprised how often criminals just get a gun pre loaded for murders. They often aren't autistically picking a loadout and cleaning off fingerprints, they get an already hot/stolen gun for cheap because it likely was already used in a crime and use that.
>be commiefornia>waiting 10 days to get pic relatedHow the fuck can I remove this? Or at least make it less noticable?*inb4movebutdontcometomystateFuck off with that attitude. Not moving, this state is shit but I can't just pick up and move.
>>65164694Looks like a toy
>>65164694WTF is that thing stickout on the back of the slide? Do you mean that or the LOADED WHEN OUT!
>>65164694Are you even allowed to remove it?
>>65164705That shit is only so the gun can be sold in CA. I have a ton of off rosters including the original VP9 which I sold. You can do anything to the gun short of making it a SBR or increase mag cap after purchase.
>>65163945>if I'm passively walking around, and they decide to start stabbingAwareness issue [never relax] >does not look good in court if I gunned a dude down when I could have fledThe onus to prove that you could have fled safely is upon the prosecution, not the defense>If he starts chasing me with a knifeTurning your back to a knifeman in the first place is a bad idea>rack the slide while runningWorse idea>If someone is brandishing a bladed weaponAn impromptu footrace with someone "unarmed" who can still take your pistol and shoot you with it is also a terrible ideaUnless your assailant is in a wheel chair [Harold Powell], there is no legal way to demonstrate that retreat can be done safely>>65164137>polygonal riflingVery nice>>65164704>that thing stickout on the backStriker indicator
>>65164814It looks like a baboon ass, but then again I don't give two shits about anything besides the USP line.
I've put well over a thousand round through my GP100, mostly OTC .357 Mag and I've never had an issue.Today, while dryfiring, I noticed that the DA trigger sometimes hitches or gets stuck and takes an inordinate amount of force to complete the action. Sometimes this is every sixth trigger pull and sometimes it's every two or three. When it gets a hitch like this, thumbing back the hammer to SA is almost impossible to doAnyone have any ideas?
>>65164817
>>65164817>>65164832>>mfw I waited too long and all stores raised their new USP prices
>>65164836There's always the option to finance it
>>65164836>literally sold your CA roster USP a month before CA removed them from the rosterWell I guess I'll just move...
>>65164846>selling a gun>in California>living in California in generalNGMI.
>>65164848TBQH I sold my USP45 to finance the USP45 Expert, sadly it wasn't in stock and used prices were stupid. So I decided to wait, now I'll just get it when I move.
>>65164694They added a mini extractor... to the extractor... which is already painted red and pops out when loaded...?
>>65165073Their method is less intrusive than Sig, Springfield or S&W IMHO. And I can also buy a non-CA extractor, but HK charges $50 for one which is fucking ridiculous.
>>65165086To me HK's implementation is more half-assed and just done to please the CA gunlaws instead of actually designing a gun around California.
>>65165086Yeah it is. You could just hit the white text with cold blue until its barely visible
>>65165098Good
>>65165101***dit tells me this works.https://www.jetpens.com/Sharpie-Permanent-Marker-Ultra-Fine-Point-Slate-Grey/pd/11621It won't remove the imprint, but at least it won't stand out too much.
>>65164694You should focus on something more important, like removing the magazine disconnect.
>>65165174Already ordered that part, its $14. The LCI is a $55 part. Cool thing about HK is once you leave the state you can remove all of the CA parts and it would just be a normal VP9. For Sigs/MP/etc. it will always have a slide cut out and barrel cut out as well as a huge hole on the frame for the safety.
>>65165115Thanks for the censorship, this is a BLU team board
>>65165208You have to replace a part to disable the magazine disconnect?
>>65165228I can file down that part but it's cheaper to just replace it.
>>65165230It appears this post >>65165098 was correct in that the implementation was halfassed. The MD on the 'ech and the 'cat can easily and accidentally be removed by a punch tool
>>65165241Yea but there will still be a trace on the frame that it was a CA frame. For the VP9 there is not a single trace left that it was made for CA.
>>65162436
>>65163026>>commiefornia>>i've only got 1911s>You might as well make the most of it with 10mm Automatiskoh i have a shitload of handguns, just only a 1911 in 45 acp. i'm old enough for freedom week to have been in my favor i usually carry glocks with real mags. and it's a sign p220 made in Newinton - NH - USA. it has the rail on the bottom and for 700 bucks it doesn't seem to have very many shots through the tube, really clean. only comes with one mag though. 700 bucks plus 11% gay tax idk might be worth it.
Went to a gun store and they had a TTI Canik out to fingerfuck. It felt really nice, like something cool to play with even if it's not practical. But I'm not buying turkshit, what other options are there for these factory "gaymer" guns? I was thinking about a shadow 2, didn't walther have one for a bit?
>>65165294the fuck is a gaymer gun
>>65165273>700 bucks plus 11% gay tax idk might be worth itYou can get LE trade-ins cheaper.
>>65165307Guns for people the like it in the ass.
>>65165294Caniks are mechanically Walther clones, so if you liked that then anything in the PDP series would scratch that itch.
>>65165294Walther has a few PMM guns with integral compensators
>>65165327i don't know if i'll ever run into a police trade in where i live, it's rural norcal.
>>65165372That's why you order one and have it shipped to an FFL
>>65165266For why have you replied?>>65165273>shitload of handguns, just only a 1911 in 45 acpWhat would be the point of the P220 if it isn't pleasant to shoot with as a 1911
>HK has introduced the VP9A1LHmm. Was thinking about getting an F for the range but maybe I'll see what the L costs.
Redpill me on the CX4. Is it a good first carbine for home defense? I have a million 92 mags laying around
>>65165514Actually looking into it, I think you're better off just buying the VP9A1F then buying a match slide. Unless you really don't want the extra .5 inch from it. You're probably saving at least a grand and you can always just swap the slides easily enough.

>>65166020So you don't personally have ANY operator gun? Kek lmfao
>>65165538Yes. Paul Harrell I think has a review on it. It’s a robust blowback (?) design. I wish it was updated to modern standards though but you can put a light and optic on it which is all it needs.
>>65165778
>>65166020How do you not already have a glock?
>>65166025hey sister, you seem pretty upset that zero relevant special forces groups still use HKsalso, nobody has ever won a nationals USPSA event with an HKit's not too late to go out and buy a good gun like a Glock or a Walther or an M&P
>>65166029I actually posted that because I saw that video. I bought my first shotgun today so I'm watching all his old stuff. There is one auction on a site for a gun that ends this weekend that I'm hoping to nab, fingers crossed

yo guys did you see the newest Big Dog Tactical watermarked instagram meme about how epic and SOVLful the USP is?XDDonly us intelligentsia cognoscenti know about HK!!!
I don't own a HK and at this point I'm pretty asshurt about it
This civvy is so fucking mad
what's cringier, owning a "german" HK made by Turks in Oberndorf, or an "american" HK made by blacks in Georgia?
