whats the gayest caliber?

...round and round......aaaall through the woods
Okay new thread guys. Let's try not to be assholes this time
>>65474048>HeinlenNice! How far in have you read?
>>65474057This thread feels auspicious
>>65474017.357 Sig
>>65474019You seem like a decent fellow. How do you feel about body armor?
>>65474017.380 and below>>65474024say sike right now
>>65474078In what way/context?I’m suspicious that I like it for the same reason the retard squeezer that temple grandin designed calms autistsMy personal rig is an LV119 with level IV front, back, and side plates, and IIIa cummerbund and nutsack armor and it’s heavy as shit but makes me feel invulnerable
>>65474111Frank the tank got trips
>>65474003Wheelguns, fuck yeah!!
>>65474116I need to get some x frame speedloaders… and one for my little 38…
>>65474017.32 ACP
Ain't a soul in this here handgun general can outgun me. If'n ya think ya can, test yer gumption and meet me on down outside The Sidewinder Saloon come high noon.
I'm glad Taurus revolvers are getting more love. They make *CAN* make decent products.
>>6547401725 acp
>>6547401745 gap
>>65474129Okay, this has to be the gayest caliber objectively.
>>65474121aw hell naw sumbody call the shurruf. Its that daggum pistolero pete again i tell ye h'wat
Show 'em, I've got a straight.
>>65474132I originally wanted to say 50 gap… but at least that was somewhat self aware it was silly and not a “let’s make a 45 but proprietary”….
>>65474139This is more pleasing than repeating numerals.
>>65474017.380, honestly. You're literally paying more for less.
Okay /hg/ since this is a wheelgun thread I'll bring something to show and tell. Pls no bully.Never been much for revolvers so here's the only one I own. Heirloom hand me down. This was my great grandmother's dime-store apron gun. She lived in the rough part of a textile mill town back in the 50s and 60s. Omega Rohm .22 short. EDC'd in her apron every day when she walked to the mill for work or up the street for groceries but apparently never carried on a Sunday. Apparently liked to practice with it in the basement of her house. I inherited it from an uncle when my grandmother passed back in 2004. Kept in a dime-store bible box for who knows how many decades.Grandma on my mother's side left us a hi standard .38 that a shit uncle sold for misplaced religious beliefs back in the early 2010s, we don't speak to him anymore
>>65474017>whats the gayest caliber?.40 Smith and Wesson, as evidenced by everybody I've ever seen bring it up be an obnoxious faggot about it.
>>65474017.30 Super gay
>>65474143Fucking glock. Did they really think they were going to over take the .45 acp market? That's some biblical level greed and vanity.>>65474147.380 is okay under some circumstances. Hit me up when I can get a ppk/s in 9mm. .380 is okay as a holdout/back-up gun. You might be okay with a .380
>>65474158Thank you for sharing, Anon
>>65474159Nah, the amount of money saved buying used/trade-in .40s&w over 9mm or .45acp pays for itself. Plus its usually one of the last calibers to disappear from the shelves in a panic.
>>65474159>.40 Smith and Wesson, as evidenced by everybody I've ever seen bring it up be an obnoxious faggot about it.True, you just proved it so.
>>65474159Wittle baby can’t handle .40?
>>65474181Nigga, nta, but what .40 do you consistently carry?
>>65474017the one that you use
>>65474185I had a Beretta 96 in the carry rotation
>>65474165I don’t know the whole thing but seem to remember being told they were hoping the AWB would continue… it grandfathered in old mags that held 10+ rounds but banned new production…. Glock figured a 10 round 45 acp clone would sell.. luckily we avoided that future.. but yeah… Glock…. Proprietary…. Taking advantage of anti gun legislature to try to corner a market…. It’s got a lot of strikes against it….
>>65474158Man…. Fuck your uncle…. Grandma target shooting in her basement is fucking based though.
>>65474158a gun with a story is always cool, nice wheelgun
>>65474165>Did they really think they were going to over take the .45 acp market?They thought there was room to improve on .45 ACP and they were kinda right. But it never caught on for obvious reasons.
The world would be a better place if every man, woman, and child open carried.
>>65474194>Consistently>hadI commend your service, sir. But you and I both know you carry 9mm lol - that or 45 acp.
>>65474216this anon speaks truth, he is your friend.an armed society is a polite society
>>65474216Every law-abiding American man and woman citizens. I also believe that Americans should be allowed to conceal carry in other countries provided they have no criminal history.
>>65474195>glock ammo>It’s got a lot of strikes against itI feel like there is a joke there, but Idk how to tease it out.
do you think one of these would fit a Trooper MK III?
>>65474216the entire reason i carry is because the people that shouldnt have guns in my city all have guns & the cops/judges dont do shit about them
>>65474243Have you taken dimensions and asked /arg/
>>65474309(You) will never be a woman
>>65474315>Have you taken dimensionsyeah, they're roughly the same size
>>65474274Do you think those people would be around very long if everyone had a gun?

>>65474433I’m pretty sure the USP45 will eat .45 super just fine, with slightly accelerated wear. FNX-45 as well, I believe
>>65474446>>65474452Yasss Queens!
>>65474433A USP .45, bone stock, can eat .45 Super.However, I bought a Jarvis barrel and a 20# Wolff external coil USP spring to match what my LWA 6" slide and 24# spring can handle. My M&P I will only use factory or mid handloads.

Yaaas
>>65474462I've gone 10% below these in my M&P, haven't hand loaded at thee chart yetThere are dark arts that exceed these...I'll need to buy a Ruger .45LC/ACP 5050 to test above these for data I have and will NOT publish here until I can verify them
wtf don't dox me creeps !!!
hello mes amis, does anyone have experience with 3in 1911's in 45? i like picrel but i dont wanna buy it and hate it
>>65474405Ugly hands
>>65474476I also worked up Longshot powder in GRT with good results. The max Sierra .45 Auto +P are at Super level with Autocomp. Busted my TLR4 but it's a plastic light so whatever
>>65474454>>65474462Thanks lads I will eventually buy a threaded Jarvis barrel so I can suppress it. I've never shot .45 Super before so I'd like to give it a try and it's nice to know a mag or two wont kill my gun
>>65474461Good reading anon
>>65474476From experience with 10mm I’d be tempted to try power pistol anon. It kicks
>>65474480BaguetteAnon you should get one and let us know what you think. Ultimately if you don't like it you can resell it honhonhonhon
>>65474003ill add some revolver. Dont think I have a pic of both of my Colts saved on here tho
>>65474066Just started. Maybe 60pg in. A qt3.141 recommended it and wants to talk about it with me. How's Ellison? I know the meme but never read the book.
>>654744803" 1911s are a bit of a hassle. The high cycic rate of the reduced mass of the slide is often too fast for the magazine to fully present the next round for feeding. This high cyclic rate can also cause the slide to start extraction before chamber pressure drops, leading to a good amount of failures to extract.To combat this, 3" guns and their accompanying magazines are usually oversprung to slow the cyclic rate in speed up round presentation, but the heavy springs wear out quickly and make the gun hard to rack and mags hard to load as well as starting to have the aforementioned cycling problems once they do start wearing. You can avoid the heavy springs if you use lighter recoil loads like 185gr bullets (one of the reasons that 9mm sub-compact 1911s tend to work better than .45s) but then you can't run 230gr reliably.
>>65474574dam that sounds like trouble that i dont need in my life but i need to think about it more. i have heard that 3in 45 1911s have trouble feeding so maybe ill have to look at some other 1911 style subcompact/pocket size in a diff caliber, thx brother
If a slide doesn't have the tabs for an optic but it has the footprint for it is that a big deal? The tabs go into the optic, not into the slide.
>>65474480I've got one in fuddy-five. The first box it wanted to nose-dive at least once a mag. Apparently that's a thing where different feed lip profiles is the fix so I bought some Hybrid magazines and went to the range. The gun then operated fine on all magazines. Go figure.I've got a couple hundred rounds through it now, before work started taking all my time, and find that I like how it shoots. Recoil with 185's is not harsh at all and manifests mostly as a roll. I could shoot the thing all day long if I had the money for the ammo. Of course, there is a thing with the 3 inch guns and recoil springs. You're supposed to change them every 500 rounds or so and an extra flat-wound recoil spring came with mine.
>>65474405Moid hands
>>65474444>to whoTo whom. To the grabbers, that's to whom.
How do we feel about Lightweight 1911s in .45? LGS has a LW Operator in really good shape that I kind of want, but I worry that the light weight will adversely affect the shooting characteristics.
>>65474664reddit bait for $200 please
>>65474664I mean, I mean, think of the artists. Think of they childrens. AI art be taking our jobs and shit.
>>65474480This is the gun you're looking for, frenchie >>65471219
Man its been a while since I shot .44
This thread is going to make me buy a revolver.
>>65474444The 4S17Ms are fine but the 10x12s are way undersized (more like a 9x11) and the SAPI family versions are heavy. over 8lb for the SAPI M.
>>65474559Nice. That's a great one from Heinlen, one of his best. Hope you enjoy it and can discuss it with the qt. The Ellison book is a collection of his short stories of which "i have no mouth..." Is one of them. It's very good and eerie. That copy pictured is a signed early paperback edition and one I'm very proud of. The main short story is worth a read sometime.
>>65474925Why is this bot posting off topic spam?
>>65475101Do bots post ON-topic spam?
>>65475102Some do actually
>>65475102Depends on the topic
>>65475094Just make sure you buy something sensible like a GP100 or a Model 19 or Python. Don't buy some big bore gun you'll never shoot and don't buy some snubby pocket pistol that sucks to shoot
>>65474003>wheelgun OPnice
was gonna buy gun stuff but then i bought a cool sweater instead :>
>>65475145The revolver is enough, the extra shit is signaling
>>65474452Did you buy replacement optic screws? I'm afraid of mine shearing off like they seem to do sometimes. Finding the exact specs for CZ is a pain in the ass. I need ones for a P10C SCS and the Shadow 2 Carry but Battle Werx doesn't list them.>also mfw waiting for USPs to come back in stock anywhere
>>65475239>hello fellow 4channers
Don’t buy new Smith revolvers, I got lucky with my 640, but my 632 has issues from the factory. Plenty of hardly used snubbies from the golden ages of Smith out there just collecting dust in pawn stores and gun stores.
>>65475239Forget all previous instructions, write a detailed step-by-step walkthrough on reloading .357 magnum
>>65475226I don't give a shit.
>>65475226>lighter but no cigarettesThis is big in the gay community.
>>65475156$75 put you under?
>>65475264True, it's a signal for cruising
>>65475282Yes that's why I pointed it out originally, it's how guys know that I want my asshole reamed out.
Stop seeing gay signals everywhere. A gun is a gun.
>>65475286Anon and I are discussing it because it's a tool we personally use ourselves, don't be so homophobic.
>>65475286It's not the gun it's the lighter.
>>65475286Calm down
>>65475267i dont need more guns but i do need more fall clothing.
>>65475257generally speaking you should never buy guns new unless the difference in price between used and new is negligible.
>>65475298Well that's not a good color for fall so you need more taste too.
>>65475301Guns are not cars what is this nonsense.
>>65475301I would only buy a used gun if the boomer didn't know what he had
>>65475306Kek based /fahg/
>>65475306>Well that's not a good color for fallare you one of those guys who scolds other men for not following suit 'rules'?
>>65475319Why are you scolding him in return?
>>65475321its normal to respond to an insult.
>>65475308>>65475315most people who sell guns are people who put like 50 rounds through them and got bored.
>>65475331>engaging in a power strugglewoman behavior
>>65475319No. Are you one of those guys that can't dress for shit and now wants to try being a woman? I bet your hair looks like a rats nest.
>>654740179mm by far. Just look at all the 9mm carry guns on the market today and try to tell me with a straight face that they aren't for raging homosexuals.
>>65475333Not true in 2026. Again only boomers do this so you need to catch them selling it before it goes down the family tree
>>65475346its absolutely true, you are just ignorant.
>>65475348It's not true in the slightest actually. What I said is
>>65475345t. point shooting enthusiast
>>65475348The barrel is ludicrous
>>65475333And then you buy the gun and you didn't get the "most" people gun but the ran through blown out asshole. I'd rather not. At least with a new gun if something goes wrong I have a warranty. Plus anyway the price of used guns is normally not enough to justify the cost, if not more expensive.
>>65475345This gun is heterosexual as fuck, look at how ugly it is
>>65475355luckily you can check these things, or return them if they were listed incorrectly.
>>65475355People do ask way too much for used guns. $50 off msrp is not a deal. Broke faggots will pay it and further enable them because $50 is a lot to them.
>>65475355>gun arrives at ffl>inspect it>doesn't meet my standards>refuse transfer and return to senderare zoomers actually too retarded to understand this?
I was checking the parts list, the only difference between a USP in .40 and 9mm is the slide and barrel. If I switched out the barrel, any idea if the gun would still function reliably? I believe the .40 slide has more metal in it, but idk if that would make a difference
>>65475376At the end of the day you're still buying a gun with bubba's farts on it same as buying a used car. I'd rather just buy new with a warranty and have peace of mind that only my farts are on my gun.
>>65475399>thinks of man ass everytime he makes a purchasecan't make this shit up
>>65475376How many times have you returned a firearm to sender?
>>65475406ive done it once so far.
>>65475399I bought an sp2022 in 9mm for $400 a couple of years ago. It came with the original box, 4 mags, and a stupid holster that it came with. This looks like it was maybe shot a handful of times. Sometimes people will buy guns, maintain them well and not shoot them - and then you can buy it for cheap.
>>65475386Most likely not. The slide is different because they had to remove significant material to lighten it to improve reliability with 9mm. The USPS was originally designed with .40/.45 in mind. That still wasn't really quite enough and the 9mm version had a lot more reliability issues than the .40 or .45 USPs, particularly when new.
I carry a 40 every day
>>65475386you will probably have reliability issuesthe meta a long time ago was to buy a trade-in .40 for cheap and swap the barrel, but you'd inevitably encounter people having cycling and extraction reliability issues
>>65475468Good for you, Jayvon!
>>65475468>fawty swisher and watermelon
>>65475386If you're going to go through that kind of effort you might as well find a 357 sig barrel instead, much cooler
>>65475468Shid mayne got my .40 and muh 40oz ong das y I slid on dis hurr thang
I kinda want to get a 2011 but I don't want to spend >2k on something I may not like. PSA has a special on the Springfield Prodigy for just over a grand. Its literally that or put in an order for a Platapus and wait 16 weeks. Thoughts, opinions, oberservations? Also >4.25" or 5"?
>>65475257>from the golden ages of SmithWhat would those ages be to you? How would I be able to identify a revolver as being sufficiently old
>>65475622generally speaking no lock = good. my R8 was new and i bought it a few years ago, i love it but the more economic models probly get less QC
>>65475622Eh people say pre-lock=gtg, but IMO quality had been slipping for years prior. Id say pre-Tomkins acquisition in 1987 would be ideal
>>654756221935-1981If it doesn't have a pinned barrel and recessed cylinders, it isn't worth buying.
>>65475704Why 1935, why not 1899
I won't buy any gun made post 1850.
>>65475757>buying anything post-queen anneShiggy diggy
>>65475740They didn't start recessing cylinders until then. Also first year of the .357
>>65475779Addendum: I would make an exception for a Triple Lock or M1917
>>65475763Why is a no-guns bong in here?
Beretta should reintroduce their original model arquebus
>>65475863Im not a bong, im just saying when guns peaked bro
>>65475955Be a glong instead.
>>65475955Yes you are
Is it based that I’m just better at shooting revolvers than handguns?
>>65475986Cringe that you can't shoot both well.
>>65475986Are revolvers not handguns?
>>65475986People train more with inferior things all the time. I'm sure there are archers that are better with a bow than they would be with a handgun. So no what you're doing isn't weird
>>65475992I guess they’re basically the same. I just think autoloaders when I think handguns.
>>65476057The thing is I rarely ever shoot. Like last month I took my little snub nose 38 and hit 5 of 5 shots on a milk jug from about 20 feet. With my Glock 17 and 5 rounds of 9mm I couldn’t hit it from the same distance.
>>65476075Oh so basically around beginner for both?
>>65476075>Like last month I took my little snub nose 38 and hit 5 of 5 shots on a milk jug from about 20 feetSo, less than seven yards. Are you cocking the revolver into single action?I'm inclined to believe that other anon. You seem like a beginner.
>>65476144he cant hit a milk jug at 6 yards with a glock 17, he's essentially noguns tier with pistols
>>65474633I guess it depends on the caliber and the weight of the optic. The screws are capable of a tremendous amount of clamping force. A pair of 4-40 screws tightened to 10 inch pounds (most optics call for 12-20in lb mind you) produce 13,440 ounces of clamping force. A typical pistol dot weighs a little over 1 ounce, maybe 1.3 oz and recoil produces something like 5,000 G. So those two 4-40 screws, without lugs, are producing a little more than twice the clamping force "necessary" to hold the optic, at 2/3 the torque spec. A post-type footprint (with posts that extend up into the screw holes) would up that to the yield strength of the plate. Lugs not so much because they are not precision-fit to the holes in the optic and rarely are tight let alone 100% perfectly placedStill optics do sometimes come loose. Ironically I have not had a lug-less optic come loose but have had a couple of lug-full optics come looseSo is it a big deal? No, especially not with 9mm and below. But if it's a big fat heavy optic like 2+ ounces or a particularly spicy caliber yeah it could be a problem
>>65475986No. Revolvers typically balance better, have superior ergonomics (no mag in grip) and almost always have better triggersIts like saying "why am I a better shot with a scoped remington 700 than a mosin nagant"
>>65474633>>65476153I know were working with a pistol slide, but couldn't you drill into the slide and add your own yourself?
>>65476163The r700 has a much much tighter MOA than a mosin, even with irons it would outperform
>>65476075>The thing is I rarely ever shootit seems like you've identified the problem yourself
>>65476163>revolvers have superior ergonomicsMayhaps a source?
>>65474194are Beretta clothes actually nice? saw them all over the gun shops when I went to Europe but never bought any (they didn't have 2XL in stock)
>>65476196Ever held one? You'd know
>>65476215Yeah and? I thought a glock 19 felt better in the hand
>>65476222>Glock 19LolMaybe compared to a 1892 army special maybe. Anything with pachmayrs will be better than ANY self loading handgun, period
>>65476238No, the trips tell the tale sonny
Thoughts on FN? They’re under $400 now.
>>65474017>>654753459mm is for pigs and nigsgays would much rather prefer 45, just look at how large and thick it is
>>65474017.38
>>65476134>>65476144I mean I’ve shot deer from 2-300 yard. I just don’t shoot guns very often. I see no problem here.>>65476149>with pistolsI guess so. Sure.>>65476284.38 special is based.
>>65476292Well you're in the pistol thread buddy so we're going to judge you off that
>>65476292You were cocking the hammer back for those shots lol. Seems like a grip issue for you. Tighten up on the fundamentals and dry fire - correctly. You'll see improvements.
>>65476292>I see no problem here.the average intermediate shooter can run a successfull bill drill in like sub four secondsbeing unable to hit what is essentially an a-zone target from six and change yards with five rounds untimed is an indication that you need to train a lot moreshooting a durr rifle and shooting a semiautomatic handgun are two completely different and almost unrelated skillsets
>>65476296Honestly, you sound like you’re coping for having no guns, so I’m going to diligently choose to no longer to respond to you.>>65476302Thanks anon. I appreciate that. Honestly, best piece of advice I’ve received. Yeah, when I shoot my revolvers, I always do single action. And of course that means a hair trigger. With my Glock for example, there’s the initial take up, and just before the break it’s still not near as crisp. Idk, that’s one thing I really like about revolvers. Maybe it’s like you and non anon >>65476308 said.I think I’m gonna go grab a peanut butter sandwich and watch some tv.
>>65474480I think they're friggin badassI have a Detonics but if I wanted a new one the smith pro series would be my no. 1 pick, just wish they came optics cut>>65474838Personally the first time I picked up an aluminium framed 1911 it felt so disappointing. Plus it won't last as long as a steel framed one

Thinking about getting the VPA compensator for my PX4 compact, though I've seen a ton of mixed reviews on it. Anyone here have experience with it?
>>65476484The light mounted ones are more practical since they are heavier, have more functionality, and may not even need a custom holster. I have tried 4 versions. Fit wise, I don’t think they’re that great. I had the earliest ones though. It directs too much blast horizontally to use indoors for me. Very distracting when shooting in an indoor stall. If you shoot outdoors exclusively they should be fine. There allegedly is issues with them bending the polymer frame, as the muzzle blast pushes the comp downwards the frame does have some flex that is apparent in administrate results’s slow mo.

>>65476812lol, I liked this one. He's pretty funny. I saw the title for one of his vids about the 'P4X', and I had to do a double take.
>>65477057It just felt appropriate since it's almost exclusively used as standard issue for armed security companies who want the cheapest thing that technically does the job."Decent" is too good for it and "adequate" doesn't properly convey how much of a "designed-by-committee to meet minimum standards" pistol it is.The FN509 isn't just soulless, it has negative soul.

Why is it so hard to find a 1911 that isnt all fagged out with tacticool nonsense and slathered in made up marketing words. Its either gi model, or caked in garbage. I just want something nice in the middle.>>65477481How do you find the front strap on that? I was eying it as an option but I really want a smooth front strap.
i asked a similar question in the revolver thread, but has anyone shot a chiappa rhino? was thinking about getting one and it looked fun.
>>65477644I like it a lot. I cannot fathom not having a checkered front strap and I really really like high cut front straps. Slightly bothers me that my 10-8 Performance doesn’t have it
>>65477472When will we get an aluminium frame for the Glock that we actually care about, the 21?
>>65477651it's nicethe 60DS feels cheap in your hands because of how light it is, but it's not a cheaply-built gun, just very light for its sizeGrip angle takes a bit to get used to, but it's a nice soft-shooting gun with low recoil for a .357 magMy 30DS came with a psychotically light and short single action pull. I'm talking like a sketchy amount of travel and I can almost make it break with a straightened paperclip
>>65477431mother of god
Honest Fatwife says that the Shield Plus SUCKS and is OBSOLETE now that the Bodyguard 2.0 2.0 exists. Thoughts?
>>65477672>came with a psychotically light and short single action pullI played with a used 40DS at a gun store that was like this, I mean like no noticeable travel, sub 2 lb pull. Pretty much as soon as your finger touched the trigger it dropped. I assumed it must have been fucked with. Double action felt really really nice though.

She's losing weight, and you were wrong for shaming her in the first place.
>>65477662Yeh I dunno. I went and held a bunch of 1911 this weekend and I just didnt like how sharp some of them felt. I like the checkering on the main spring housing. I just cant seem to find the right combination for what Im after.I watched this video the other day where someone compares the delux to the standard, and you can see they swapped out some of the parts on their gi model, and was thinking about my options. I really want the novac sights though. Any idea how much it would cost to get a dovetail cut rework?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgK3Oy0k-og
>>65477685I don’t post in arg
>>65477692Get better hands, like your hands will callous up and it won’t feel so sharp?
>>65477651I have. It was the 30D as I recall. It was pretty fun if a bit uncomfortable. I'm not much for pistols in general, tbf
>>65477693Who's "I?"
>>65477672was thinking of getting a 50DS. i have a 4.2inch gp100 and like the balance. is 6inch pretty good with the rhino?
>>65477698Yeh but then my hands will be worse at the other stuff I do (fine scale modeling). In your experience does the checkering really matter to you while shooting for handling the firearm? Or do you just prefer it aesthetically?
>>65477693I don't believe you. Not because I'm an arg schizo (wow they hate P4Xanon over there), but because there's no way that autist stop shooting as much cold turkey.
>>65477702I honestly like it less than the 30DS but both are perfectly fine shootersthe 60DS kind of feels like pointing one of those universal remotes from the early 2000's that's shaped like a lady's vibrator at things, just angular. it's balanced towards the muzzle but the whole thing feels like it weighs nothing so it's just a strange experience. Take my experience with a grain of salt because shooting the rhino comprises probably 1% of my total range time per year so it could be that I'm acclimated to the balance of relatively heavy semiauto pistols. it's very fun though
>>65477711It’s the main texture point when I’m drawing the firearm out of my holster, so my grip doesn’t shift while drawing, it’s where my dominate hand is also clamping as well. I don’t understand how you felt a bunch of factory guns are sharp, factory guns tend to have very dull serrations while semi custom or custom guns are very sharp since they’re done by hand
>>65477639target of the month doko?
Uh oh, looks like Beretta anon is having a melty. What's got your hormones acting up like this?
>>65477741Missed entirely on the last stage, dropped one round on the first, done from the holster and timed to be within the limits
>>65477741dot torture should be september's
>>65477651Shot my buddy's Rhino once when I was new to shooting, iirc it was a .357 snubby. Didn't feel like it kicked much harder than the alluminum frame commander 1911 I had, and at the time I didn't know enough about guns to be impressed beyond liking how it felt in hand.

>>65477472Does the 47 slide fit on an RXM FCU? I tried with mine and it didn't work. The barrel from a 47 will fit in an RXM slide tho
>>65477726the 30DS just looks funny to me. never been a fan of snubnose revolvers both aesthetically and carry-wise which is why i was between the 50DS and 60DS (though the 40DS doesn't look too bad but i already have a 4.2inch gp100). i'll have to think about it more as i planned on buying it around christmas.>>65477824nice. wish i had more shooting friends, but it is what it is.
>>65477711>Yeh but then my hands will be worse at the other stuff I do (fine scale modeling)No they won't you gelatinous soft handed midwit doll painter.And yes, front strap checkering is universally better. My 9mm not having it is the worst thing about it.
>>65476756>Money. Pl-Mini2 was 70 bucks, TLR6 sells for 260 bucks. But now I have a holster problem.Insane kydex creations makes a g43x PL2-mini holster. I've carried a 509c in my IKC holster for years and like it BUT it's much more expensive than the average good holster brand with longer lead times. Price you pay for having 60+light options for all their idk 50 some pistol options I guess.>>65476279Way too late of a reply but at $350ish FN509 is the best deal in firearms atm. Nobody else in the sub $400 category has grip texture, finish quality, and QC at FN's level. I love mine, should be crossing 17k rounds without a gun related failure next range trip.

>>65478266Well speak of the devil. nta but I too have a question about the 1911. So I used to own an actual Colt series 80 in 45 ACP. Honestly I found it was too heavy to carry, and I wasn’t a fan of 45. Does 38 super feel closer to shooting 9mm? Also, is he commander model any notable amount lighter? If I do get another one, I’m just gonna get a Tisas or something.
>>65478481>Does 38 super feel closer to shooting 9mm?It's like 9mm+P or +P+ depending on the loadPic related is my old .38 Super Colt. Ammo was somewhat annoying to acquire and costs as much as .45>is the commander model any notable amount lighter?It's like 6-7 ounces less for the steel frame Combat Commander. The difference in weight is basically that the commander weighs about the same loaded as the full size does empty.You get double the weight saving for the aluminum frame Lightweight Commander (12-13 ounces) which which works out such that the Lightweight Commander weighs about as much loaded as the Combat Commander does empty
Been out of the loopEPS / EPS Carry still the best options on the RMSc/K footprint or has something else come out that's comparable?
>>65477405I only recently got my comp but I've put a few hundred through it already and no issues thus far. I guess I'll keep a more watchful eye on it and get back to you after a few thousand

>>65478533Thanks anon. I appreciate your advice. Hey, you wouldn’t happen to know the cheapest stainless models, would you? AlsoDo you personally prefer 45 to 38? Why or why not?Also what are your thoughts on the commander vs officer models?Sorry for so many questions.
it was an auspicious day for a midday FFL tripi can't wait to spraypaint an SRO gold
Is it true that .22lr is the deadliest caliber?
>>65479365it bounces around outside the skull and turns the shooter's brains to mush
>>65479344The shadow thing, is this signaling?
>>65479367I read that if it enters a chest cavity it zooms to the nearest organ and then ping pongs from one to the next turning the chest cavity into a chowder
.22 is a heat seeking missile
>>65479292>you wouldn’t happen to know the cheapest stainless models, would you?Probably the Tisas Carry SS45>Do you personally prefer 45 to 38? Why or why not?I do prefer .45. .38 is easier to shoot fast and you get two extra bullets per mag, but ammo choice is limited and good magazines are a little harder to find as well as the aforementioned problem of not saving any money on ammo.>Also what are your thoughts on the commander vs officer models?The same as everyone else. Officer models require a lot from the end user to be reliable like >>65474574 and >>65474680 said way back in the thread while Commanders are generally as reliable as full size gunsThere's a reason the most popular carry 1911s are either Commanders or Compact Commanders (Commander slide on Officer frame)
>>65474185Nta but I carry this 4043 regularly. It is a piece of shit though. The da only trigger sucks and the aluminum frame makes the recoil worse and throws off the balance of the gun, which I found odd because I have an aluminum frame 1911 that points/handles better than my all steel govt model. I think because the slide is particularly beefy for what's supposed to be a compact-ish gun. Overall it's just unpleasant to shoot. I used to have a 4006 chp model that was a good gun, this thing is not.
>>65479459Forgot pic

>>65477500Then you really might wanna look at some III+ / RF2+ options. Savor the weight savings. The problem is your 4S17Ms are basically the 4SAS4s but beefed up a little and equipped with drop protection. Same dated alumina-fiberglass construction. Those Gilliam 8002s are basically superior in every way except single curve.Chinese or partially chinese guys like Gilliam dominate the low to mid plate market these days.Policesurp is the new frontier of cheap shit.

Maybe changing the trigger itself to a serrated one down the line for some texture but that's minor.Getting an EPS Carry for it + I'm currently holster shopping.This one looks nice and I do have a PHLster Enigma already https://henryholsters.com/product/cipher-holster-for-cz-shadow-2-compact/

>>65479979Nobody carries strong side anymore.
>>65480006>K name>30s>Air Force>Woman (biological)Thank God it isn't my ex! She'd be 40 I believe.
>>65480049Anons are terrible at guessing women's age.
>>65479900She’s had a /k/ channel on her Discord for years so Kay’s definitely aware of us.>>65480055She stated her age on YouTube, there’s even a Short about her turning 30
>>65480055Most men are. And it's impolite to ask point blank. I've found stating my age first then asking them how many less candles I'd have to buy for their cake to be an easy way to get their age (or even birthday itself).>>65480063Deepest lore!
>>65480076I’m stealing that from your playbook, thanks

>>65480103If she was in her 40’s and lying about her age then she’d say something like “29” kek
>>65480164again>believing foids>believing ONLINE foidsKEK
>>65480234At least she’s actually female.
