45 is for losers

>>65435346Why are revolvers the best handguns?
why does the guy at the gun store always laugh at me when i buy 380 ammo?
the .45 2011 with 12 rounds is lighter than a single stack .45 1911 with 9>>65435351Fuck you burt
>>65435360Tell him that its for a PPK
Older Springfields are cool
>>65435382The old roll marks are so much better
>>65435356who gave korbo a gun??
>>65435393Old slide design in general was better. Everything since 2020 looks like they let highschool kids in shop class do all the work, down to the Call of Duty font.
>>65435362They only hold 12 rounds?
>>65435360Show him up by buying a real masculine gun like a 9mm CZ. That'll really teach em
>>65435362You could optimize that size/weight ratio down to 8 rounds of 230 grain .45 at 43 ounces.
>>65435402>people who actually use their guns prefer front slide serrations>people who obsess over "aesthetics" and don't actually use their guns don'tFascinating.
>>65435400Me
>>65435351The BVLL actually looks good on that, I'm impressed
>>65435445>(you)
>>65435402Say what you will but I've never seen a sloppy hk rollmark. I've seen some other brands that looked like they were scratched in with a nail or something.
>>65435454Now repeat it on a loop so it looks like he's jerking off his pistol.
Why is the price of the CZ P-10C going up? I see it priced at damn near 400 dollars. Almost 500 in some places.
>>65435402>t.noshootz
>>65435403I’m using a shortened 120mm mag, with the standard 126mm mag it’s 11 officially, 12 if you push really hard or get a different baseplate, or 14 if you get a different follower and base pad
>>65435472If you're in PA Apotheon Range has a used one for $275 and you can probably talk em down even further.
>>65435269>Not really, it's dutyslop like over 9000 othersOne day I will be able to fire a Steyr GB and tell you all how it's a tier above the rest
>>65435452why!?
Is Springfield just not making non-AOS guns now?
>>65435491Oh wait thats their subcompact not their compact. My appologies
>>65435506Mil spec and garrison lines I guess Get with the times boomer
>>65435495Smith & Wesson = S&W = Spice & Wolf
>>65435491Bro these posts about that game n store make me jealous as hell. None of the gun stores around me sell anything for a deal. My regular store/range sells used stuff at a general market value but rarely if ever an actual underpriced deal
What should I add to the collection next?>Glock 17.5 (for home defense and duty applications)>CZ-75 Compact (EDC)>Walther PDP Pro-X (bought for competition use, but still need to get gud at handgun shooting)
sexo...almost had the chance to buy the prop mateba from Serenity (2005) directly from the weapons master but it didnt pan out. sad
>>65435517nta but I didn't know they made a subcompact that is interesting.
>>65435550sexSEEEEEEXXXXX
I never see any of the more strange variations of Rock Island 1911s. I remember them having a ton on their site.just checked. they still doThey have a double stack 10mm long slide. That's pretty cool. I kind of want one of their officer's model 1911s.
>>65435549Well you have three fairly large 9mm handguns (I don't count the CZ-75 Compact as an actual compact). If you want a different caliber, you could buy a gun in .45 like a 1911. You could buy a revolver and learn an entirely different MOA.Personally, I'd recommend a CSX-E as you don't need to spend money on a new cartridge, you learn SAO and you have a more practical carry gun
>>65435549Just acquired a cz75 compact and it's pretty outstanding. I have large hands and it still feels a little small like most any compact but the weight of it makes it feel like it shoots similar to a full size poly gun. But the walther... Man, the walther is something else. The Pro X has an exceptional trigger
>>65435423How do you like yours? I love my P01, probably the best all around handgun for my purposes.
>>65435628I think the P-01 is an awesome pistol and a lot more folks would be passionate about shooting if they started with it instead of whatever polymer striker 9 the guy behind the bass pro counter reccomend they get for thier first pistol.Unfortunately I own no CZ pistols, that was just a rental. How is the inforce light?>>65435546Yeah it's a gem of a store. So far Apotheon, Big Boys guns and range in OKC, and Modern Sportsman in Coon Rapids Minnesota are my favorites across the country, and I've been to a LOT of guns stores and ranges. If any of yall reading this are near any of the ones I listed go check em out.
want
>>65435650>instead of whatever polymer striker 9 the guy behind the bass pro counter reccomend they get for thier first pistol.What if the SAR9 or the STR9 are actually secretly great just nobody in /hg/ buys them
I'm a onegun. Glock 19. Federal HIV ammo. 25 dollar Amazon IWB holster (pole craft)
>>65435707Through the 4ish years I've posted here I can remember one SAR9 and two Stoger 9mm posters in the hg threads. They seemed to like them, the stoger poster even claimed to have 1500 rounds through his without issue. I think that the problem is the overlap of the kind of person who buys a $180 Stoger 9mm at academy and the kind of person who is so passionate about handguns they talk about them here is nearly nonexistent.
Latest handgun purchase. How did I do?
>>65435729Why do people ask how they did? I've always owned my weird purchases after researching them
>>65435623Glad you like it! I really like mine too, even if it is a tad hefty for an EDC piece.
>>65435743Anon, we come here to get jacked off, you know that...
>>65435716Big if true>>65435747I just bought some wood grips and a high end leather aiwb holster
>>65435346Now that I'm well into my 30's, I'm getting a strange urge to buy a Ruger Blackhawk, a reloading setup, and the powder and projectiles needed to make some pissing hot .45 Colt loads...Is this worth pursuing? Anyone with experience in this type of thing? What the hell would I do with them outside of shooting bears/sasquatch?
>>65435666I wish S&W gets so good again that they put "44 magnum" engraving in the middle of the barrel
Do you think Colt’s are actually worth the price? Honestly I have a Pietta, and if feels alright I guess. I can’t see paying over 3x as much just for the name- unless American manufacturing is somehow 3x better than Italian.
>>65435789Is that something they used to do?
>>65433756That's a fine pistol you have there. Other than the aesthetic defects, does it shoot still? I was embarrassed to post this better picture because of the rust, but fuck it, why not?>>65435237I liked it so much I bought it twice.
>>65435787My advice is don’t ball out on the reloading setup until you know you like it. If you start simple you can still put that equipment to use later if you decide to upgrade.
>>65435812i thought the legend was cool but seeing them side by side like that really shows the inaccuracies in its reproduction
>>65435812It’s safe to assume you’re not the original owner and the rust was already there.
>>65435812My broomhandle still shoots fine, just needed the mainspring replaced. every other part is seemingly original to the gun
>>65435831Simple as in one of those Lee loader setups, or a cheap press?
>>65435857Fuck the lee loader. I meant a single stage press. Nobody should ever by the lee loader.
>>65435871>byFuck. kmsing myself as we speak.
>>65435835CZ has a history of fucking up the 75 short rail. The retro had the scallop cut in the slide to look like the short rail, but still had full length rails running alongside the frame. Terrible move.
>>65435812am i the only one who thinks the short rail is fugly
>>65435907Yes
Will strikerslop manufacturers finally listen to consumers about lack of grip on the upper portion of the support hand side now that gen 6 glocks released with it? It's ridiculous that I still need to slap skateboard tape on 80% of my guns. Honestly I probably still would I've learned to love the grippyness but people should be getting a grip that works by default in late 2026 man.
>>65435892Hammerslop
>>65435907I love the narrower front of pistols like the 75 and pic related. I wish more manufacturers cut the slide like that.
>>65435918Sounds like a skill issue to me
>>65435918Live by polymer gunsDie by polymer guns
This post marks only the tenth usage of the term "hammerslop" since July of 2024 >>65435922
>>65435941We'll up those numbers autist
>>65435812Double the hammer, double the slop
>>65435953I have contributed two counts, or 20%, to the overall amount. One word, no space
>>65435955Yeah hammerslop is something else, all the uncs thirst for the hammer whilst the enlightened zoomchad hungers for ze striker
>>65435922Ur mom slop
>>65435963Hrm there have been 5 uses of "ur mom slop" since 2018 hrm ermm hrm
>>65435454Now do it when you've been outside in the rain for a few hours.

>getting second thoughts on the color of holster>notice the change i want costs nothing when picking itfuck i hate bothering holster makers but I really want a different colori hope they dont give me some extra charge for the change
>>65436017Kek
>>65436023If they haven't even started working on it I doubt they'd be that pissed. Who's doing the work?
>>65436065im fine with the wait time, just hate having to make a correction after the factit's the hellhound arms holster
>>65436111I've never went through them, but an email could solve a lot of the anxiety, just ask if you could swap colors if the service hasn't started yet
Does anybody still sell IWB holsters for the S&W model 39? The only holsters I have that fit it are a galco combat master and a bianchi m12, and open carrying anywhere outside of the woods makes me very nervous
