I got the opportunity to hold a Staccato CS (or C) today. It genuinely felt amazing in my hands. Grip didn't feel like polymer at all. HD is definitely on my list now.

$70 I don't know chat what do we think about this?https://www.ebay.com/itm/306542416235The seller says of his 3D printing:>These are 3D printed at 0.05mm thick layers. These look like an injection-molded part when they are finished. Most can't believe they were 3D printed.
>>65344218P-10C
>>65344227Resin printed stuff usually has a much nicer finish but a lot less structural strength than extruded. But for a grip I don't know that I'd worry much about the structural strength.
Well, I pretty much fail the challenge. Good news at least are that the ounce went though 73 rounds without any issues.

Shout out to whoever reccomended the Shooters Global GO shot timer, really enjoyed this thing. Got to run my buddy through his first draw drills, he was having a blast and really enjoyed getting to see himself improve with the timer. Here was my best FN 509c splits, gotta get back to getting 3 shots at 7 yards in under 2 seconds but I'm happy enough with it.
>>65344218For carry or HD? >>65344321Really enjoyed getting some more reps in with the LMT and my buddies stribog with the double shot drill. Any drills folks like doing?
today me brain says it want long slide 1911 in 10mm
>>65344163I finally realized what bothers me about these big furry heads. The eyes. They're anime eyes, not beady animal eyes. Fuck. Holy fucking shit. What a revelation.
I need some magwell cut grips for my 1911, but I'm just gonna cover them in silicon carbide so I don't want to spend more than like $20. Any options? Not opposed to 3d printed but they're the same price as used g10 grips
>>65344344Really? What bothers me is the absolute faggotry.
>>65344441I mean it the concept of it in general still bothers me. I just find it extra weird that the eyes are flat.
>>65344151>Why don't you have FAG guns like we do in Germany!?

>>65345359I won't judge. I finally installed the competition hammer spring and short reset plate for my arex I've been dreading installing for over a year and change. Took me like an hour and a half, my buddies vice, and a trip to the hardware store. Pain in the dick.Guns now much better in DA and a tiny bit better all around. I really think just the recoil spring and flat trigger were good enough for me since I never use DA anyways.
>>65345414Yo Burt, do all P99s fit in the same holsters? Safariland holster finder returns different results for 99 vs AS vs QA but I thought they were all the same outwardly.
>>65345188Temu sells like $6 walnut grips for that 1911 if you wana replace the plastic and get a more soulful feel to the gun without breaking the bank.
>>65345445This picture is asymmetrical and it's triggering my OCD / tism
>>65344852Thats an excellent collection, but I'm seeing a severe lack of .44 magnum.Have you considered getting something like a Ruger Redhawk to balance things out?
>>65344949Hey, back in the day, gays were very openly hated and people wanted them dead. It makes sense that many homos would be interested in self-defense and guns.I would know, since I am gay.

>>65345455"walnut"
>>65344139i just ordered a new pistelle
>>65344139Asking again. Need opinions regarding Tanfoglio 1911s like picrell. I'd like a 9mm 1911 stainless but i'm not sure this one is reliable enough. It's either this one or a turk one around 1k. Last range sesh was next to a guy shooting a competition Tanfo Stock of some sort (~1500+ bucks), poor guys had ton problems (ftf, fte, and so on).
>>65344328I'm not a drill guy, but im for sure a screwdriver guy. I like strong screwdrivers first thing in the morning. Really loosens up my gears, and I become a better shooter.
>>65344328For fun
>>65345733definitely get the tanfo over the turkshit
>>65344190>and why
>>65344852nice python
>>65345316spike's not!deagle
is there any IRL gun that looks anything like this?
>>65345880Yeah, the faggot gun.
>>65345733Do not buy Turkish -anything- ever if you can avoid it. If the thing a place is most known for in recent history is botched hair transplants, you probably have better options elsewhere.
>>65345880Kinda looks like a 1911 with a huge, boxy light mounted
>>65345733Hey! I have one!
>>65345933Nice. I do need you to tell me what's up please. Is it reliable and averagely well made ? Would you advice for it versus some turkoid ?
>>65346112where are you from, Anon?
>>65346132>mfw
>>65346112>Would you advice for it versus some turkoid ?NTA but litterally anything is better than turkshit.the tanfo are nice and will work, i don't know if HP rounds will cause jams like in the original 1911 so you'll have to try it yourself.>tanfo stock>ftf and fte issuesthe ammo was the issue, if he reloaded the rounds himself then that dude name is bubba
>>65346169I just wanted to know, to know your other options.It's a good handgun, IIRC the frame and slide are from the Philippines (Armscorp or better know as rock isle armory), and the barrel is from Tanfoglio. Just be careful the trigger is very light.
>>65345788>>65345888>>65346192>Remember, no turkianAlright, alright.>>65346211>other optionsWell it's Tanfo, Tisas and other turkshit, or imported thus vastly overpriced US brands like Bul, Staccato, STI, Watchtower, Springfield, Wilson Combat and so on. Around 1k it's either Tanfo or Chiappa, or Turk. Or Taurus now i'v seen some. I mean brand new. I could randomly find a used Bul 1911 for maybe 1500 eurobucks.
>>65346284>Well it's Tanfo, Tisas and other turkshit, or imported thus vastly overpriced US brandsTanfo is good then, mine cost $1100 against the cheapest Springfield 1911 GI for around $1500, I save up the difference I got myself a reloading kit, that and I would rather try my first reloads on a "cheaper" gun.
So, when a Glock (or similar striker-fired handgun) is racked and has one in the chamber, is it possible that there could be a mechanical failure and it would discharge by itself?
>>65346335You need to pull the trigger so the gun can "cock" the gun itself...NOW...you mentioned Glock and Glock clones...the P320 is not a Glock clone, the striker is already semi-cocked. (at least to my knowledge)
>>65346335A Glock has 3 safeties, a trigger block, a sear block, and a striker block, so it's very, very safeOther strikers are usually similar
>>65344949Stay mad chuddie
>>65346350>>65346362Thanks guys. I do carry with one in the chamber and feel safe but there's always that worry that a faulty spring could slip or something
I've had great experiences with select Turk pistols, I have pic related and a GI 1911 from them, both great shooters. On a friend's advice I swapped the springs with a Wilson combat spring kit for $20 and it made the 1911 a fantastic shooter.I'll add also I really, really like how the Turks don't put godawful rollmarks all over their pistols.
>>65346392There's also the striker safety, in if you drop the gun, the striker doesn't move
>>65346397Ignore the greek shitposting...they are lesser turks
Is this accurate?
>>65344139Not sure if this would be legal but I wonder if there's a 4 barreled .410 rifled derringer that could be used for drone defense. Like HOLY SHIT A DRONE IS COMIN' RIGHT FOR ME! Quickdraw and spray the general area in front of me with lead without aiming breaking my wrist but that's better than getting blown up Like a Taurus Judge but with four barrels and a derringer.
>>65346408No, not at all. Shadow wields a 1911 in every appearance he has a handgun. You couldn't even get the first, easiest thing right.
>>65346392If it makes you feel better, YouTube people have thrown them off of buildings and they still don't go off
>>65346397look how they massacred my boy
>>65346446They just used a stock pistol model, this is the same game where Shadow pumps an SMG
>>65346392as long as you have a stock slide, striker, & trigger there really isnt anything that can go make it go offif you use aftermarket springs, triggers, slides, strikers, etc. then you do run the risk of something potentially failing due to the dimensions being offit gets worse the more you mod it as well as they are all made within different specs & designed around interacting with OEM parts, not another aftermarket partfine for a race gun or a range toy but i wouldnt carry a tricked out race gun with one in the chamber
>>65346392if the pin somehow slipped it would just hit the firing pin block, if you remove the slide it looks like a round piece, which part of the trigger pushes upwards and out of the way of the firing pin when you're actually firing the weapon.
>>65345610Neat. Hope you like it>>65345880
>>65346506what if it accidentally slips when I'm pulling the trigger
>>65346514then it doesn't matter because your gun should be properly positioned anyway. >>65346507thanks, bone.
>>65346458>he doesnt pump his smg
>>65346335Yes, there are only 2 things that need to happen:1. the striker must be pulled back and released2. safety plunger must be pressed into the slide, so that released striker is not blockedPulling the trigger does both of those things at once, so that's the easiest way for the gun to go off.
My buddy is 6'3 and about 230lbs, he wants a holster for his g3c so we can run draw drills together but prefers appendix carry. Is the vedder comfort tuck good for appendix carry? I carry 4 oclock strong side so I'm in the dark about appendix holsters. I know there are better holster options out there, but most brands I knew like Alein gear, ANR, or safariland either didn't offer taurus holsters, didn't ship for months, or cost almost as much as the gun.
>>65346514*banana peal sound effect**pre recorded laugh*
>>65346284french ?S&W or surplus GI 1911, i've spotted a few surps on natura for 2k which is ok, i brought mine 10+ years ago for the same price, glad to see nothing has changed1k for a 1911 that is not turkshit is really pushing tho also if you cheap out on the gun because you lack the funds, the ammo cost will rape you into a different universe, stick to 9mm instead
>>65346507Answer me Burt>>65345452
is a browning HP not simply a 9mm 1911t. completely retarded noguns
>>65345455the grips on it are usgi replacements from the 80s or something. but i may try to get a pair of post-war keyes, i like the color better on those
>>65346561i quite like the desantis slimtukisnt the most comfortable and i have it for a glock but its cheap, works very well, and ive hard a hard time finding a smaller holster that conceals as well as it doesnot sure if they make one for the g3c
>>65346591No, the high power is the first double stack meaning it holds double the bullets, the 1911 is single stack meaning it has a single row of bullets. The controls of the high power are also very different compared to the controls of the 1911, note the differences here >>65346397 compared to my picture. The trigger of the 1911 pulls straight back in a line, where the high power hinges back, which means most people will be more accurate with the 1911 than the high power.All of these are gross oversimplification but you're noguns so whatever.
>>65346591>>65346591It is not. It is an entirely different gun but uses the same tilting barrel action. Browning died before the gun was finished, I hate with an absolute passion people gassing it up as everything the 1911 should have been when it has a worse trigger, worse service history, and wasn’t more reliable than the 1911. There is a reason it never really caught on.
>>65346591the difference is two world wars sonny
>>65346591>swinging link vs linkless cam>no barrel bushing or recoil spring plug, barrel comes out the bottom vs the front of the slide>no grip safety>internal vs external extractor>1911 trigger which goes straight back changed to one hinged on a pin>double stack 9mmthis is all i can think of off the top of my head
>>65346591is a glock not simply a 9mm 1911 but plastic
>>65346647how many world wars did the glock win?
>>65346652the 1911 didnt win any world wars, artillery and howitzers and bombs did
>>65346624>>65346652
>>65346652Glock won the hearts and minds of the people. How many people out there use the term "pistol" and "Glock" interchangeably? Don't see that with the 1911. Checkmate, BOOMER.
>>65346709>people out there use the term "pistol" and "Glock" interchangeably?>black people>people
>>65346735Speaking of the wars won by glock
>>65346652There haven't been any world wars since the glock was adopted, but it may be in one soon.
>>65346754Actually sorry, the P320 is going to lose a world war is the more accurate statement.
>>65346613>>65346615>>65346628thank you for the detailed explanationthey look very similar so I thought it was a branding thing where browning got a contract for the 9mm model or some such
i need some ideas /k/i have a nickel plated 92FS extracted on this derya melik i modded to basically be revy's 9mm sword cutlassthe problem is nickel plating makes the part super slick & theres no grip to it, which works out great for the slide, mag release, etc. but shocker, it turns out the part that grabs casings probably shouldn't be super slick because it just slides over the case & fails to extract sometimesi refuse to use a black 92fs extractor on it because itll kill the aesthetici figured running a bunch of steel case through it may just solve the problem by wearing down the extractor and making it rough exactly where it needs to be so it can reliably extract cases but after about ~400 rounds it still looks pristine so i think thats a lost causei then hit it with a file & some rough sandpaper on the interior of the extractor so that the visible parts on the outside are still shiny & clean but the actual working part is grittier but that didn't do the trick either and im worried doing that more will fuck with the dimensions by actually removing material and cause other issuesim thinking i have 2 other options, get a black 92FS extractor and then carefully sanding it on the parts that would be visible from the outside so its raw metal & then polishing it so matches better but the actual part that makes contact with the case would still be the OEM, unmodified partother idea is to get a stronger spring for the extractor so that its less likely to be able to slip the casehonestly dont know what one would be the better path to go down, beretta finishes are actually pretty decent so im worried i'd have to shave off a noticeable amount of material to get the look and that it may cause other reliability issues doing that
>>65346853Uh why don't you just get a standard extractor and hand polish the parts you would see and leave the part that actually grabs the casing untouched?
Pre interchangeable breechface so I’m stuck with .40 Really .40 was getting popular right as the 2011 released so it makes the most sense as the “next gen 1911” at the time. A higher capacity caliber that has similar lethality as .45 ACP.
>>65344139Currently rocking OEM Glock shit on a 17. Performance trigger polished with simichrome, and a minus connector is sex. Add a light laser combo and a pressure pad and it makes for a great duty gun. I personally have a 1000 lumen light and laser so that if I end up having to draw, the death grip I’ll have from shitting my pants will translate into shinning a 1000 lumen light and laser combo into the guy’s eyes. Glock actually makes some great shit. I’m looking forward to purchasing a Gen 6 and getting involved in some shooting competitions. I’m not sure how consistent I am with it, but I was able to fire one round from draw with a level 2 holster in .75 secondsI’m debating on doing a bulk purchase of Glocks cause I like to collect handguns and fucking with the system from there.
>>6534689440 is also still major
>>65344754I actually have some magpuls but they're not true magwell cut. I went to home depot today and got some jb weld plumbing putty and I added a bunch of it to the bottom to make them actually magwell cut, also deleted the pin cutout.
Why not get some nice exotic hardwood and make your own? You could do it with basic hand tools. Hand saw, a few chissels, a rasp, etc
>>65346853why would you spend time and money modeling a turkish piece of shit reproduction instead of the actual firearm they were (poorly) imitating?
>>65346318Yeah it's listed for 1100 here too. I'm hunting for a sale, I think I could get it for around 950, but i'm seeking for the stainless model precisely, it's not so easy. Btw thanks man. Appreciated much. I tend to trust Tanfo more now. I plan on buying one and add some stainless 40 bucks eBay compensator for longboi aesthetic. Like picrel (granted picrel is standard blued Witness model in 45).>>65346576>frenchYeah. I will look for S&W or GI but 2k is out my reach.>1k for a 1911 that is not turkshit is really pushing thoThat is the whole point of my question here. Does a 1100 eurobucks "italian" (well it's Flip frame and slide like that kindanon says here >>65346211) good enough and reliable ? In all honesty I can't drop 2000 on a 1911. I'd chase a used 1200€ Bul or else before I go the 2k route.>9x19Yeah i'm not going 45 ACP purely because ammo cost. In France it's 9mm and .22 almost only, or you need to have a lot spare money.
Should I get a gun in 380?
>>65347178YesNot the first and not second, but eventually it's a good idea
>>65347182Why not first?
>>65347183It's not 9mm
>>65347189Ah
>>65347182When should I think about getting a colt python
>>65347232Are you a gen-x/millennial who played FPS games like Half Life 1/2 or enjoys the early seasons of The Walking Dead?
>>65347241The former. I heard the latter is decent early on, but gets progressively worse the longer it goes. I never really had much of an interest in it, to be honest.
>>65347178Absolutely. I think having a variety of calibers is a good idea because you never know when an ammo crunch is going to happen. Having some diversity means you have more options to keep shooting in those situations.
>>65347175Cheers!
>>65347255If you like the Python because vidya then I'd get it, I got the Python remake because of Half Life 2 and its been solid for over 3000 rounds of .38 and .357.
>>65347266I forgot to get whiskey.
>>65347270Any recommendations on manufacturer?
>>65347278Colt brand Colt Python, the 6 inch is the most iconic form.
>>65347286It's a bit big don't you think?
Went to the range yesterday and saw this in the used case for $175 it's my first revolver and now that I got one I understand the appeal lol even for a cheap POS it's so fun to mess with lol
>>65347290Depends on what you're doing with it, the snubnose Python is something I've wanted too and its cc ready.
wasn't there a video floating around of a guy who bought 10 shitty handguns from pawnshops all over his area for $100 each?

>>65347330110 sass actual is his channel
>>65346989because the turkish piece of shit came out of the box with a nickel plated slide, frame, & had a steel recoil guide rod out of the box for ~$400 less than an inox 92fsi was able to get custom grips & that extended, ported barrel with that $400 i savedits a range toy anyway, it isnt like i am going to be carrying or relying on an anime gun for self defense
>>65346613Why in the world would anyone wanna use a 1911 if a high power is pretty much the same but holds double the rounds?
>>65347446you use it when you wanna win a war, sonny
>>65347189If it's not going to be 9mm it better be .45 or something.
>>65346613>first double stackare you sure about that?
>>65347446>1911Better shooting, better trigger, American, if you didn’t solve the problem in 7 rounds then 13 isn’t going to save you You could get a .38 super 1911 at the time as well which was 9 rounds (later 10) which 9 vs 13 isn’t that big of a difference when the .38 Super would be more powerful than 9mm. I’m not sure when it started but American 9mm spec was always weaker than German spec, so 9mm was a considerably weaker cartridge than .45 ACP when they’re both FMJ
with how short-range handgun engagements typically are, would it be viable for a manufacturer to make a budget ammo with the bullet itself being a ball bearing instead of a conical one? like wad-cutters, just spherical.assuming retooling isn't an issue, would this ever be worth it?
>>65347446Because the average high power isn't as reliable as your average 1911 due to design flaws inherit with being a half baked design that switched cooks half way through. Because the cheapest $300 1911 has a better trigger than any high power I've ever tried, and I've tried everything from surplus Belgium highpowers to FEGs to the new SA 35s and FN new-powers (they ALL were jammomatics, pic rel failure to feed). Because a decent high power is twice the price of a decent 1911.There is a great reason compeition shooters use 1911/2011 designs and nobody is using high powers, but if you like to see someone attempt to use one forgotten weapons has a video of him doing 2 gun with an Egyptian one that can't make it through a single mag without failures.
>>65347494Not the easiest thing to just plop in a brass casing and have it stay in place. I don't think it would really save any money to be honest either. Obviously not talking about muzzleloading handguns as spherical bullets are great in those.
My July qualifier attempt. Blew the button shot with the 19
>>65347545Nice. This one really would have been a lot better with an optic. My front sight was bigger than the last target and the button.
>>65347344cheers
What is a handgun that is under $1000, that is actually good and nobody on /hg/ has
>>65347520How have you managed to have this bad of luck with Hi Powers and reliability? I have an original Belgian that was barely used when I bought it that hasn't jammed once, and my SA35 only got FTF's like your pic there because for whatever reason barely anyone puts the right springs in modern productions of older pistols. Once I swapped its recoil spring to a proper 17lb one, it ran without issue
>>65347591glock 19
>>65347591>nobody on /hg/ hasImpossible request because Burt exists
>>6534759132acp 80x from Langdon tacticalI know people have had the 80x but I can't remember an ltt 32 one
>>65347520I have both and love both, for separate reasons. Neither are unreliable as long as their properly sprung, highly recommend a wilson combat spring kit for the 1911 and a browning extractor spring for the hi power, really takes both pistols to a higher level.
>gun aimed at people who can't own guns.
So I posted a couple weeks back saying I felt like a faggot for not being able to properly manipulate my first handgun.Part of the reason for that was feeling the slide release was too stiff. Turns out that's kind of a thing with mine since what I bought is a P-10C, so I don't feel so bad now. Apart from that, I've been practicing manips with snap caps and I think there's been some improvement.
>>65347664I have a P10S and had the exact same issues but worse because I'm wrong handed. It took me around 500 rounds and a lot of manipulations but it's finally working itself out.
>>65347664Is the P-10C a good replacement for my USP as an office gun?
what is with the p10c? feels like i've been seeing it a lot recently. feels like any other polymerslop.
I dual wield a p10c and a echelonn
>>65347591I don't have a VIS 100. Not aware of anyone else on /k/ who actually bought one either
>>65347956I'll consider it. What about the South African guns?
>>65347956That's a visually pleasing gun, is it well made?
>>65347770No.
>>65347770I would trade you my ported P-10C for your USP in a heartbeat. Not because it's a bad handgun, far from it, but because the USP is my dream gun and H&K literally does not exist where I live so importing one is comically fucking expensive.
>>65347956buying one right now to be special.
How bad is 1911 maintenance and upkeep? I'm white
>>65347964Vektor made (mostly) great guns. Tressitu, Denel and Truvelo made mostly good ones. Most of the other companies made varying levels of crap, might be exceptions I don't know about>>65347973Yes, it's the equal of any other recent production metal DA/SA. It's just ridiculously expensive for second world dutyslop, like paying $900 for a CZ75 or M9A1 (even though the latter is made by limoncello sipping slugabeds)
>>65348002Oh okay, I'm not sure I need something like that right now but I did think it was nice looking.
>>65348002you wouldn't happen to have a neostead 2000 sitting around somewhere would you? lol
>>65348001Eventually you need to clean it and replace recoil springs but they have flat wire recoil springs that last longer if not indefinitely. Your extractor might lose tension, so you might need to tune it (by bending it, it's a spring). The original 1911 in 1911 went 6000 rounds without a stoppage. >"The endurance test was now begun. 6000 rounds were to be fired in a series of 100. Between series , the pistols were allowed to cool for five minutes. The pistols were to be examined, cleaned, and oiled after every 1000 rounds.>In the 1st thousand rounds, both pistols worked perfectly, without malfunctions. In the 2nd thousand rounds, the Colt functioned perfectly. The Savage had 4 malfunctions. In the 3rd thousand rounds, the Colt functioned perfectly. The Savage suffered a broken bolt stop which was replaced. In the 4th thousand rounds the Colt functioned perfectly. The Savage had 4 malfunctions; the bolt stop and sear were found to be upset from constant pounding, the firing pin spring was found to be shortened. In the 5th thousand rounds the Colt functioned perfectly. The Savage developed a magazine release defect, and dropped its magazine five times; there was further upsetting in the bolt stop and the bolt was found to contain cracks. In the 6th thousand rounds, the Colt functioned perfectly. The Savage had 31malfunctions; a new extractor was required, the breech plug had cracked, and the firing pin had acquired a permanent set., the safety slide broke and the retractor spring had acquired a permanent set. At the end of the firing, a careful examination of the Colt failed to reveal any defective parts.

>>65346652>>65346735In the war of melanin aggression, Glock is a great white hope.Anon brought up a good point the other day about the wall you dry fire at likely being closer (and better lit) than typical outdoor or even indoor ranges which has given me the idea to widen the points of reference inside the greater and minor A-zones in hopes of target focus enhancement. The 55mm POR's were outlined using an aerosol can and the 77mm with a Buc-ee's fridge magnet, kek.

>>65348092Haha sorry no didn't mean to sound like that my bad. It is a nice gun but I'm not in the market for something like that ATM.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L39odqwqcTsCould real top-break revolvers be reloaded by swinging like this or would it damage the gun or not work? Is there any commercially available top break revolver I can do this with?

>>65348138I guess there's no harm in saying. Central American monkey, Costa Rica.After asking around, the only gun store willing to custom import it was asking for over 3k burgers for a (new) regular full size 9mm model in black. The listing they showed me in GB, where they would purchase it to import, was $1.1k. So the full payment would have an additional 200% increase just for the import duties + store profit, give or take.I've seen people here say a good USP is a fine 800-1000 burger gun, but just try to imagine paying more than even a mint MK23 for a normal ass USP and you can probably get an idea of how outrageous the markup is. Certainly not impossible, don't get me wrong, but restrictively expensive for even wealthy local "big shots" for what would ultimately be a range toy.
>>65346530disgusting black creatures
>>65348219don't diss shadow
So I've always had full size heavy ass pistols/revolvers I didn't wanna carry so I've always carried lcp max's and recently bg 2.0 but recently wanted something in the middle so I went with glock 19 and picked up an AIWB holster (style with 2 single DCC clips spread out on each side.)I was under the impression that I'd have to make some wardrobe changes to accommodate this (I usually wear a belt but not every day) but I have worn it from 12 - 1 o clock appendix in gym shorts/sweat pants/slacks/w.e other beltless pants and I have absolutely no issue with the gun slipping/flopping around. Like yeah if I'm in gym shorts and am doing a full sprint it's a little goofy but legit I can do a solid jog and its fine. A glock 19 loaded up 15+1 isn't the lightest thing in the world.What gives? Is everyone just fat with loose fitting shorts/pants so a belt is absolutely necessary? I feel like I'm going crazy because this whole belt required thing seems ubiquitously stated. Am I missing something?
>>65348196I was down there last year (San Juan and Quepos) and some retired boomer Australian guy showed me his Hi Power and Glock, and had some random hunting rifles/shotguns.I'm from Texas so we naturally got on the topic after drinking, and he said some shit about the hi power "the yanks shot them once, I shot them twice, the result is the same."
>>65348228San Jose* sorry
>>65347294revolvers are honestly the best way to get over recoil anticipationfire 4 shots and then load 1 round and then spin the cylinder without looking and start shootingyou wont know what round is going to actually fire and you can see yourself flinchbeats dry firing because knowing there is a live round helps, at least it does for mewhen im dry firing, theres a part of me that knows it just cant go off and it is isn't like really shooting so im not 100% in the mindset
>>65348131you can and it isnt going to cause serious damage but it also is pointless & its only risking damage to the revolverthe action of folding it all the way down is what pushes the ejector out and that removes the shellsyou just release it and slightly flip it down, it pops the ejector and makes all the shells ejectcimmaron i think makes schofield clones, they are just like $1,500definitely cool but honestly you can get better revolvers for less & SAA clones go for a 1/3 of the price and SAA clones let you do all the cool cowboy tricks & spins because they are well balanced
>>65348196whats the story with HK banning themselves from central america? isnt HK known for being jews and selling out to any country?
Why do people online have the most elaborate HK fudlore?
>>65348224like 70% of americans are overweight or obese and another ~5% are underweightthat leaves 25% of people that are considered a healthy weightyou need to factor that in with conversations/articles about holsters & concealmenti dont use a carry belt or anything like that but i have a golfy fabric belt that does not work well for concealed carry, when i try to draw, it just pulls on the belt & it stretches a lotall my leather belts work just fine thoughsame issue with sweatpants/shorts for kydex holsters, it just winds up yanking my pants before it even starts to pull the pistol out of the holstermy leather holsters it isnt a problemi cant see carrying a glock 19 in shorts/sweatpants though, the weight is too much and i dont want my pants to sag, my LCR is light enough it isnt an issue thoughi cant run/workout or anything and carry though in shorts, shits flopping around and i cant trust it wont accidental reveal itself, pants me, or worst case scenario fall out of the holsterive been thinking about getting a belly band holster just for that though
>>65348228That's cool, hope you had a good experience. Surely you went to the more touristic spots, because downtown San Jose is absolute dogshit and I think most of our own locals can agree.I'm not even sure myself how people manage to get their hands on more than 2 firearms here since legally an individual is only allowed to register 2 under their name at a time, but I'm sure there's ways around it, specially coming from retired foreigner boomers.I should mention that getting the more popular stuff isn't really difficult once you get your guvmint requirements to carry sorted out. There's your Glocks, S&Ws, Siggers, some Springfields, a bit of Colts, Caniks, and CZ has been very recently getting more into the market through official distributors. Some gun stores try to pass off Taurus shit as high quality too which I find funny. Beyond that though, the more bougie stuff is custom import only and you gotta pay out the ass as I mentioned. HK, Beretta, FN, any fancy custom competition brands, all of that may as well not exist here. I've seen some Beretta 92 knockoffs on shitty little gun stores but if I had to guess they're even lower tier than Taurus clones.>>65348248desu I don't know if they literally banned their shit from central America, as in the "we refuse to have any official sellers in any of those shitholes" kind of banned. Funnily enough, I saw a news article recently where some drunk dude opened fire on cops after a traffic stop, and the motherfucker just so happened to be carrying a stainless slide USP Compact. It was right there in the arrest photos, clear as day. Fuck if I know how he came to own that, but considering how non-existent HK is here, it boggles my mind how such a weapon arrived here at all. Fucking jealous of it myself too, though I'd prefer a full size 9mm with the stainless slide.

>>65348224Have you done draw drills with it without a belt? I'm curious what your split times would be with and without one.>>65348001I have to clean my Tisas every 200-300ish rounds or it gets gritty and stops being reliable. The last time I cleaned my FN 509c I had gone about 8,000 rounds without cleaning and couldn't tell the difference. Disassembly of any modern pistol is usually about 5 seconds, a 1911 is going to take you closer to a minute or two. Sure some people who do it all the time can do it in 20 seconds, but you can strip a glock or smith&wessen or FN or HK or whatever good enough to clean in less time than that your first try. It's not the worst thing in the world but it's not something you can ignore like modern guns

>>65349359Huh, I always assumed that "pistol" was an interchangeable word for handgun.

>>65348776Yes, I absolutely love mine and carry it often. I think I'm only about 2-3k rounds through it though. Some things to note, Smith QC is terrible. It's getting better with the bodyguard 2.0 line but on launch a lot of sights were not properly aligned. My personal BG 2.0 had light strike issues with all ammo, less with S&B and Federal HST but like 3-4 rounds a mag with garbage bin AAC. I sent it back to Smith and they didn't just fix it they also polished the feed ramp, it was all done next day shipping for free. The gun disappears in the pocket with a QVO holster which has a really cool claw release system that only slows down my draws about .5 seconds compared to traditional carry. Pic rel what it looks like in my scrub pants. Check out this video of the QVO claw release system.

>>65349585At the time I lived in Detroit off Joy rd by the Murder Mac. My work was actually in a pretty safe area but getting to and from was very very sketchy. Took the same turn as a guy 3 times in a row at 2am and he pulled over, let me pass, then followed me home and waited for me to get out with his high beams on. I was happy to have the BG 2.0 in my pocket. Not the only instance I almost needed it either.I work in CT/X-ray and often get calls from MRI to help them start IVs, so bringing a gun into work is an absolute no go. Luckily in Michigan the parking lot of a hospital is explicitly stated not to be a protected place in their carry laws, so you can just leave it in the car.

>>65349635If you look at it from the perspective of someone when they first came out, they were at least interesting or perhaps cool to some. But nowadays you are mostly correct. There's no problem with someone new to guns or someone not really into guns to choose a 9mm Glock for carry. It is, however, a clear marker for mental illness if someone has been "into guns" for a long while and still carries a 9mm Glock. See Hop for example.
>>65349769Imagine the horror of having to go into a gunfight carrying a gl*ck. They better fucking give out medals for that.

This was fired at stoddards in Atlanta, they don't allow draws.The right group was fast fire PDP, left and center echelon with one of them being fast fire as quick as I could get sights on target and the other being slow fire (cant remember which is which but assume smaller group is slow fire). Slow fire with the echelon is faster in my hands than fast fire with the PDP due to the PDP's famous muzzle flip and the echelon having an incredibly short reset trigger and amazingly ergonomic design.I like the Echelon!
>>65349878Wait, that white gun is a PDP? I thought it was a Canik?
>>65349878Take the 'echpill
>>65349885Nah it's a panda PDP. I don't like caniks plastic guns, had 4 stovepipes with the matte at a rental range and didn't shoot their race gun that they had (not sure which model) any better than I shot the Echelon.
I never had an opinion on the Echelon other than skepticism for Springfield because its general lack of QC so go ahead and take your meds, schizo
>>65349903>general lack of QCProofs?
>>65349885>>65349898Pic rel>>65349886Man I just don't need another polymer framed pistol. Even if i like it better than my PDP or sig 2022 or hi point JXP10>>65349903My PDP shipped with sights that were adjusted all the way left making my groups about 2 feet off, and one of the factory mags in the box had a failure to feed about every two or three times I shot it 4 rounds in. Walther made me pay to ship it back then told me to fuck myself and said it worked fine after holding it for a month or two. I took it back out and had the same problem the first time i shot with that mag. Meanwhile springfield owners get their feed ramps polished and sometimes even a free mag tossed in if they have a qc issue and send it back. Springfield has qc issues but at least they take care of you
>>65349886Needs more support thumb input.
It turns out icarus is not making a vp9cc metal frame
>>65349903Springfield QC is more of an issue with the guns that they manufacture themselves.Anything made by HS Produkt like the Echelon or the Hellcat seem to be good to go.
>>65349898That book any good?
>>65349926It might veer to the left if I stop kek
>>65349951It's ok, fun little vignettes of technology integration in china. Hello Shadowlands by Patrick Winn is MUCH better if you're interested of books covering asia, and explores the underworld from meth labs in Burma to dognappers in Vietnam. Used copies are cheap on amazon>>65349932I think the echelon is a massive step up from the hellcat line having tried them all including the ported models.
>>65349969Ah beans mobile posting really got me today
Went to a shitty indoor range that doesn’t allow rapid fire. Man this sucks, no wonder people never actually get good at shooting.Forgot the challenge targets so I just blasted the same raggedy holes for 50 rounds per target.
>>65349868The joke is that I'm a cheapskate
>>65349989a group's a group
>>65349989
>>65349989I used to hate stuff like that but after seeing the kinds of retards that go to indoor ranges I get the existence of some fudd rules now.
>>65349996Also range report my STRAYER VOIGT INFINITY worked flawlessly 100 rounds, then started choking up. Maybe I should have lubed it since it was completely dry. New mags would help too. Despite rattling like a maraca, rattles like my 1918 beat to shit 1911, it seems perfectly accurate. I seem to be bad at zeroing and the POI rises too much at range. Happens with my 9mm too. Forgot my tool kit so I had to adjust my rear sight with a 1911 magazine feedlip as a flat blade screwdriver. This thing fucking rocks and is basically the pinnacle of firearms from the 90s so I don’t want to modify it anymore except (new lockback slide stop, single side safety, reactivate grip safety, perhaps a new grip module). I was planning to convert to 9mm and optic cut, I might just have to build a clone of it to do that. I might have to compete limited USPSA with it.
>>65350001Ranges should have a membership thing going, where you can rapidfire if you're a member and if you qualify (i.e. not be a retard).t.target got shot at by the next bay at a public range at 00:33 >>65349886
>>65349969>>65349974Cool, thanks for the write-up on the book, anon.
>>65349989>>65350001I swear 90% of shitty range experiences comes down to the fact that virtually every range just crams everyone into the same room, instead of separating people out based on experience and practice objectives.
>>65350021>>65350028It is a fact of the universe that if you are a new shooter you will go to an indoor range and get stuck between one guy mag dumping .50 Beowulf and another firing a golden AK on full auto. And if you're an experienced shooter you inevitably end up at the boomer range where you get yelled at for shooting any semi automatic thats not a stock 1911.
>>65348111It’s good but god damn it’s fucking mim internals like the prodigy At least they learned so the safety isn’t MIM. But it’s ambi so I’ll replace it later as ambi safeties I cannot IWB carry since there is a chance of it flipping off since the holster doesn’t shield it. The 10-8 parts on it are great, the extended slide stop, magazine release, and the grips are very grippy.
>>65349969>>65349974Are you the guy reading mob sorcery I’ll also recommend “unbridled out of the gate” which is a uma musume inspired work.
>>65349989>>65350018I wouldn't fuck with it at all, that thing is sick and looks straight out of a 2001 SHOT show or something.
>>65350053Mine is pre 1998 because it’s pre interchangeable breechface, so it’s made between 1994 and 1998, I have no idea if it’s a kit build (they sold bare frames for a short while) or a shop build. It might have been in another configuration since the frame is drilled and tapped for a frame mount optic they filled the holes when cerakoting the frame. The slide to frame fit is super loose, but the frame and slide are both serialized 307 so I think this was the gun’s original configuration but whoever owned it before fit the frame to a different slide (hence the frame mount optic holes and the looseness). I’ll have to ask Infinity about the gun but they probably don’t know much. I’ll have to ask the boomers at 1911addicts about it, some mother fuckers have entire collections of infinity’s and posting them in their Lamborghinis and shit Nighthawk said they could weld on new material and tighten the slide to frame fit for 550.
>>65349723>PriusMost of it is meh, but the CVT is that car is very cool. They deleted all clutches. It cost them, and no one appreciates that they did it, but it's a cool achievement.
>>65349666>it has grip that was actually designed for human handsThis is how I know you don't actually shoot.
>>65349907I read about it somewhere.>>65349924>at least they take care of youRuger does too!
I think pantybin just hates anyone who gives him (You)s while also posting groups.
>>65350044Are you the degenerate that reccomended it to me? I'm almost through book 2. It's got a strangely compelling story and super rich magic system.>>65350022Yeah no problem, I also really reccomend The Pariah if you're looking for fiction instead of nonfiction.>>65349989VERY pretty 2011 anon
>>65350070Literally no one has ever said anything good about a cvt. They're trash Cheap to make, and usually fragile
>>65350133Yeah, sorry there isn’t anything else out there that is of similar quality I expect a report on who’s best girl
Is the difference in accuracy between Glock's standard Gen 1-4 barrels and their Gen 5 "marksman" barrels really enough to consider an upgrade?
>>65344139i a moving back to the states next month, been gone 2 years. i currently have a glock 19 gen 5 with an x300, and a glock 43x with the mag replacement button, some streamlight i can't remember, and some holosun red dot. is there anything worth buying to replace ir upgrade these. my dad wants to buy the 19, so i could put that into something else.
>>65350163>who’s best girlObviously the christmas cake who could beat my ass what are you even saying this isn't a competition. Alessia is close second. I like ambitious powerful women what can I say.How is the nighthawk? Which model is that?>>65350018Thanks for the range report anon. You should definitely run a match with it, the things neato>>65350191What is your budget, what do you plan to do with the new gun, and what do you not like about the glocks so we can reccomend stuff that suits your taste in guns.
>>65350191Those are still good. It’s not like they release a Glock 74 plasma pistol or something while you were gone
>>65349989>>65349996Where the fuck did you find this?
>>65350199Smdh
>>65350199>>65350202got it. i will only be back for a year so I was thinking about hyper specializing two guns, either my existing ones or new ones. one gun for concealed carry 80% of the time and the other one for cc in the snow, or oc for hunting, and home defense. I've got no complaints with the glocks, just have been checked out of guns for a while, wasn't sure if there are new optics, lights, or pistols that have upset the balance.
>>65350204Gunbroker
>>65350220>new optics, lights, or pistolsYeah optics are getting really really good, it's no longer "buy an rmr", you got good options for all sizes. Basically every new model you can buy now days is worth it even including the new vortex stuff, hell I even hear good things about osight shockingly enough. Unfortunately lights are still basically solved with "buy a x300 for full size you never want to carry IWB, tlr-1 for full size carry to compact, and tlr-7 for compact to micro compact". For new pistols the S&W Bodyguard 2.0 is practically space magic. It shoots as good of groups as a glock 19 in most peoples hands but is tiny enough to fit in the pocket, did a write up here about it with some pros and cons >>65349536 it could be a good replacement for the 43x if you want a tiny gun you can pocket carry instead of a small gun you can't really with most outfits.If you're planning on getting a new full size for HD or whatever else call around different rental ranges and try to find one that has infinite swaps for a flat rate and try the guns you maybe haven't shot before like the Echelon or PDP or HK or whatever else and form your own opinion. Find what you actually love and shoot the best.
>>65350220Meant to ask, where did you go? What was your favorite place to visit in whatever country you were at? >>65350237>gunbrokerMan who here is gonna get the MONSTER. I know one of you degenerates will. How about you mob sorcery guy, looking to replace the nighthawk with something that will REALLY turn heads or are you scared your range bag would be too full of womens phone numbers to carry ammo in?
>>65350256the bodyguard seems interesting, i want to test one when I get there. i kind of want to go all out on a full size pistol, so i guess i will just see what the spread is at the ranges. >>65350264i have been trawling sub-saharan africa. zanzibar is 10/10, only place i would choose to go back to. other places were alright, good to see once but not enough to ever want to go again.
>>65344928Would link up for an armed reconnaissance trek through the pacific north west? >>65345184>>65344163You're subscribed unironically whereas I'm following Dawg Shot for the lulz, we are not the same.
Why is the Taurus 85 so based?
>>65345254I guess that's a fifth generation Glock 19
>>65349659>not to be a protected place in their carry laws, so you can just leave it in the car.Same here. I wish security had an employee gun vault or something though
>>65350311it just werks
>>65350364Waltuh, it. just. werks.
Be honest with me, guys.I’ve got 2 guns that are actually practical for CC. A Taurus 85 (5 shot 38 special) and a S&W 3913. Every other gun I have is basically a full size gun. Of the 2, should I just use the S&W and get a spare mag or cope with the 85?My 85 looks like pic rel, so it’s pretty aesthetic. But the smith is also aesthetic..
Bought my first gun yesterday. Now what do I do?
>>65350414>first gun>CZNoice, now buy ammo and go shoot it
>>65350414Step 2 is to buy something with a red dot
>>65350414Find time to keep posting photos of it to 4chan in between all your gay sex hookups.
>>65350400Just buy a Hellcat/shield/P365/CSX
Muh forty fives
>>65350488Wish I didn’t like 45 so much but it’s my favorite round to shoot. Idk why I got bit by such a Fudd Bug in that regard. It’s like the Lincoln Town Car of pistol rounds.
>>65350533It really is. I always dismissed it as an overrated boomer caliber but holy fuck its an incredible round to shoot. I just picked up my USP today and I already want another hammer fired 45.
>>65350488based
>>65350400>A Taurus 85 (5 shot 38 special) and a S&W 3913. Every other gun I have is basically a full size gun.Are you sure you are unable to CC a full size? Other than that just do the 3913.>>65350414>Bought my first gun yesterday. Now what do I do?Learn to disassemble and reassemble without scratching it. Clean it and lube it even though it is new. I like the thin grease type lubes for slide rails. Ammo, mags, shoot it. Learn to clean the barrel properly.
>>65350488>exact same 45s as me
>>65350611>>65350611>>65350611>>65350611
>>65350606I have a gen 2 Glock 17, but concealing that I wouldn’t say is the most practical. Honestly I’d like to carry it, but I can’t make it make sense.
