>>65492027>Just open carry an AR-15 at low ready.This gets the police called on you for brandishing a firearm or worse: lit up like Garrett Foster.>>65492116>putting your parking brake on when on flat ground.This gives you more time to react to a B&E since the perpetrator might not realise the parking brake is on and you have every right to get back inside your own vehicle. If you demand him to exit and he refuses then striking him in the cranial nerve centre with your pistol would be self defense because the assailant is attempting to abduct you at that point.
>>65492201Don't know about you, but castle doctrine and no duty to retreat extends to the vehicleI can just start blasting as soon as I'm in life threatening danger which does include attempted B&E to the vehicle while I'm actively in it
>>65492201Most cars’ parking brake won’t keep you from driving away. Be like the pickup driver during the Hollywood bank robbery that hit a kill switch when he got carjacked. >>65492210In my state castle doctrine applies to vehicle and work and covers a reasonable believe someone is attempting to gain entry so you don’t have to wait until they are ripping you out by the throat. Old cop trick is keep your windows cracked 1/4 inch and your greatly improve your situational awareness when stopped.
My dad and I brought my uncle to the range. He has some .357s and a .22 but never shot a 9mm before. He loved picrel, fit his hands perfectly.
>>65492222Don't most modern cars come with an in built-in kill switch if the key fob is beyond a certain distance?Also CHECKED
Not loving the carry desu senpai. Same trigger as the PCR, and the PCR just fits my hand better. Probably going to trade it towards a pre B 75, a set of .45 carbide dies, and some other odds and ends.
>>65492234I just got a modern car and if I leave it running and have the fob when I get the mail it makes some honk alarm and flashes the lights so I assume that’s what it’s doing. >>65492223I want that TALO M11 that had the anodized green frame. P228/9’s are the best. My 1989 PD issue P228, agency sold back to us for $130.
>>65492263>$130Hell of a price
>>65492246Is it something about the grip panel width and material compared to the PCR? I found the Carry more comfortable in hand compared to the CZ 75D Compact at my LGS. Granted that one had Hogue grips the prior owner installed
>>65492263>Herndon, VAI want this
>>65492272I think it has more to do with the shallow cut of the grip frame below the beaver tail, it just fits me like a glove. Also I’m not a fan of how the red dot feels when carrying appendix. I trust myself enough with irons inside of 20 yards.
>>65492271Included the maroon box and 3 zipper back mags. My former PD was one of the first to adopt the P228 so my S/N is with in the first 700 imported. >>65492285I used to live right next door to Herndon. Drove past H&K plenty of times in Sterling.
Would getting a compensator and ported barrel at the same time be overkill?
>>65492294>I used to live right next door to Herndon. Drove past H&K plenty of times in Sterling.I lived in nova, right there actually, for almost all my life. That Alan Colie guy shot that dude not far from where I lived. I used to shop at that walmart for my groceries.
>>65492303I lived in Leesburg, I had to google that Comie guy, I recall the incident but didn’t know it was in Dulles.
>>65492295It'd be dumb because comps and ports work off of gas pressure. So doing ports before the comp would reduce the effectiveness of the comp. It'd make more sense just to do a longer comp instead of double dipping
>>65492192Ah the autistic troll thread, made before other thread was even at 250 replies
>>65492317It's not as dumb as you think because most comps don't work off gas pressure anyways, they are too far forward and the bore and ports are too large to use what pressure is left to any use, ports work if done right, but most comps are trash and just reduce perceived recoil by adding mass and lengthening the lever. So adding a comp onto ports would probably see a reduction in muzzle rise compared to just ports.
>>65492210>duty to retreatI had researched statutes, rulings and self defense cases for a better understanding of that legal constraint and what I learned is it means a jury is allowed to take into consideration that you had an opportunity to retreat (safely) before using force. The onus is on the prosecution to demonstrate this of course and the defense would be able to argue how exposing your back to the perpetrator and wagering your life on outrunning him is anything but safe. If you're stalled at an intersection when a deranged driver or pedestrian advances on your position then it would be safer to open fire on him rather than accelerate with oncoming traffic. It's probably for this reason that no one has ever been convicted on the grounds of a "duty to retreat".>>65492222Checked.
>>65492295go to the gym.If this is a 9mm carry gun, put a light on it, get some 147gr ammo and see how much that impacts the muzzle flip.I think well done ports plus a heavy flashlight on a duty sized metal frame pistol would be the best combo for minimizing muzzle flip.
>>65492294>S/N is with in the first 700 importedBased
>>65492388>Chainsaw manI watched the anime and the movie very recently. I didn't care for it because I find Denji annoying which is a problem considering he is the only constant in the show.
>>65492295If your CCW doesn't have a ported compensated flash hider with a brake and a suppressor then prepare your anus for getting kilt inda streetz.
>>65492428The ideal CC gun
>>65492427>I didn't care for it because I find Denji annoyingthat's just a running issue with shounenshit, same as with JJKCandy and Cigarettes and Sakamoto Days are infinitely superior manga series
>>65492431This, but post-ironic unironically.
>>65492427>>65492442You guys can read actual good manga and not just stuff for teenagers, you know?>>65492203Which rail adapter did you use?
>>65492476>You guys can read actual good manga and not just stuff for teenagers, you know?what? sakamoto days is great and so is candy & cigarettes. I'm in the process of working through Vagabond and Blade of the Immortal as well.
Not buying americanSimple as
LGS has a LTT USP 45 for about the MSRP on LTT's site. It's pretty...
>>65492295Buy a px4 compact if you don’t want recoil
>>65492649That things recoil is rocking your shit, you're not even making good hits.
>Never point the muzzle at anything you do not intend to destroy>except your cock, balls and femoral artery
>>65492665not really, across the string it was AD, AC, AA. If he has anything to work on, it's the first double action pull that flew off as a delta but a subsecond draw from concealment is impressive regardless
Am I having Déjà vu?
>>65492685The butthurt noguns nigger has found a new fixation to latch on.Bit sad I've had better interactions on ARFcom than here.
Indoor vs outdoor matches, what does /hg/ think? I've only done outdoor and it seems like indoor would be way less fun, what with all the targets being ahead of you. But winter is coming and I'd like to still do something when there's a foot of snow out. (Although they run practical rifle matches outside in January so I might go freeze my balls off for it)
>>65492692SAD! Many such cases
>>65492192I got a RIA 1911a2 in fuddy five and am going through the break in period, its heavy as shit and has like 0 felt recoil as a result idk what ill end up doing with it besides a nightstand gun and a big heavy fun plinker
>>65492712I'd argue the only role you need a handgun to fulfill is one for everyday conceal carry. Everything else is extraneous. I have 8 handguns and maybe 3 see regular usage, the rest are just for the range
>>65492649Already got one, was thinking about getting the comp/ports on my 92. And also a PX4 comp
>>65492744forgor pic
>>65492747Why does your PX4 look so small? Is that the subcompact?
>>65492774Might just be the angle I think. Mine is compact
>>65492787Just work on framing if you ever have to send dick pics
>>65492839Maybe he is a SPH chad
>>65492747The size thing, is this signaling?
>>65492685No you're not. The OP is a newfag that has spammed THREE active /hg/ to /k/ right now. I hope he gets ass raped by a pack of migrants who just want a better life!
Previous good /hg/ with working links before troll: >>65480360Troll starts making the OPs with intentionally broken links Troll thread 1: >>65483362Troll thread 2: >>65485943Current OP makes a normal thread with working links: >>65489176Which brings us to the present: >>65492997>You, butthurt noguns and a nigger kvetching
I want to know where 509non is because I wanted to ask him about cerakote pricing. He also is just nice to have around in thread
>>65492192I'm the guy that had a shit fit over griping my beretta wrong and I'm sorry for being really mean and dumb.
>>65493041lol I've been there.
>>65493065I was still hot off the press of losing my mind over every search engine being awful so I was having a meltdown I haven't had in literal years. Utterly embarrassed with myself.
>>65493041>>65493071what did you fuck up (and fix)?
>>65493072NTAStart here. It was funny seeing it unfold >>65491718
>>65493077You should be ashamed of yourself, you judge your brother for a spec in his eye while you have a log in yours.
>>65493077I still can't figure out how he was holding it in such a way that would cause the safety to clip his finger. Then again I do have small baby hands so it never happens to me
>>65492712>flip cast trash gun
So, what brand are we shilling today ITT? CZ again?
>>65493146Glock
>>65493146I will shill any brand except Sig. Fuck em
>>65493153Wut about the 226 and 220?
>>65493158What aftermarket parts... jk.
Holster came in. Nice!
>>65493094I was having my off hand ride too high and I was getting paranoid about the safety biting my thumb knuckle
>>65492427>>65492442I liked both of these as a casual anime watcher. They weren't the usual pussy who is scared of girls, getting bullied, etc.
>>65493146SIG but only the 22x guns
>>65493200Their 1911s and 2011 is pretty good too and the 365 is still good as well.
>get 2k11>trigger is way too long and it has an awful hotspot on the safety>have to drop another $100 on itThis better be the best goddamn thing ever once I get those problems addressed tomorrow
>>65493204I thought the 2011 was having problems too. Also yeah 365 is fun. I should get a flux for mine
>>65493210I don't think I've heard of any problems outside of kvetching from purists granted I'm retarded so I'm more than likely not looking in the right places.
>>65493038Thanks man, I've been working 20-30 hours of overtime a week so haven't been posting much. Cerakote pricing can be very variable, some places charge per colour, some by the job. Most have an instagram where you can see their work, check out how the lines and colour saturation is more than the actual design itself. The cerakoter doesn't pick the pattern they apply it, so you probably don't want pink leopard print but if the pattern is applied super crisply with no lines or colours blurring into each other that's what you're looking for.A couple years ago when I got my last job done $200-$250 was a good price in my area for a gun plus 2 mags. Your milage on price and lead times may very.
>>65493038>>65493214to add to this, certain shops are approved and certified applicators of cerakote, which is something to consideralthoug I am a big fan of a good rattlecan myself
>>65493146Every day since 2015 has been CZ shill day.
>>65493158Say no to all siggers
>>65493258i remember when CZs were for hipsters and everybody was dunking on them for the finish on the interior of the frame looking like a walmart cast iron skillet
>>65493214>>65493038Random pic from google to illustrate my point, here is what I mean with blurred colours that muddy into each other instead of well saturated colours with clear definition to the lines of where the colours start/stop. When you're looking for who to do the job check their work and make sure it's sharp, I found some places that wanted $150 more than I paid for my last job who did worse paint jobs than I could with a rattle can at home.
>>65493262They were decent when a new 75 was $300 street and a glock was $550. Now glocks $620 and the CZs are $750.And even with all the co firmed design flaws with CZ, half of them straight up admitted by CZ and the normal issues of QC and terrible machining and finishes retards still shill them.
>>65492476GG&G
>>65493158>>65493200The Sig that made those great guns no longer exists. I refuse to give my hardworking American dollars to a company that engages in lawfare against my fellow citizens.
>>65493268>Now glocks $620Who the fuck buys their Glocks new lmao
>>65493285*gulp*
>>65493280Weird way to say you don't own guns but okay.
>>65493280Go pretend to care about your fellow citizen somewhere else pearl clutcher
>>65493285>I am poorYou don't know that used Glock hasn't had 20,000 rounds put through it.If you're not poor, why compromise on something you may rely on some day to save your life?
>>65493288>>65493291I don't see any other company knowingly selling unsafe firearms to the military/law enforcement/public and then when NOT IF tragedy strikes, they use their coffers to take widows to court so they never see a dime of recompensation for the trauma they've suffered. Fuck modern Sig
>>65493299You vet your purchase before buying dumbass
>>65493299Do you not check the guns you buy before you shoot them? Do you not take your guns apart and inspect them?
I thought it was just american sig that sucks.
>>65493304Again, go clutch some pearls somewhere else
>>65493312Yes goyim! Don't forget your weekly shekels to Israel!
>>65493271Based
>>65493333QUADS!
>>65492201>Garrett FosterGot what he deserved
>>65493260Thankfully there are plenty of stamped-slide P22x pistols still available.
>>65493345Perry is a good man and I'm glad he got pardonedI bet Foster was using something shitty like a VSKA lmao
You guys like the HK45? I've been thinking about it.
>>65493362HK45 full sized? Get the USP45 instead. No need to neuter yourself for 2 less rounds for supposedly better ergosHK45C? Based
>>65493355pure sexo
So I thought all was groovy with my trigger+sear+disconnector+mainspring housing swap job but while dry firing it and comparing it to my Dan Wesson I noticed some things. Most worryingly, the grip safety now apparently doesn't do anything. 1911men, please help. What do I need to adjust/change?>Grip safety does NOT need to be depressed for a trigger pull to drop thr hammer.>Thumb safety requires a decent amount of force to move all the way up. Clicks up part way then needs to be "forced" the rest of the way. Appears to be "engaged" at the partial position but not confidence inspiring.>Thumb safety can be engaged with the hammer in the half cock position. I don't remember if it was this way before, but it's not like this on my DW.I haven't been to the range to test fire it yet but dry firing seems to work correctly. It cocks and resets and fires normally and will shoot a pencil to the ceiling.
>>65493355>those gripsGet some wood on there, son. Maybe birch or dogwood.
>>65492692The pettier he gets the more desperate he is.
>>65493362I really love the ergos of the hk45 but as the other anon said the capacity is really rough. The FNX is already 15 rounds of 45 in almost the same size as the USP45's 12 rounds, no need to handicap yourself even further down to 10 if you plan on using the gun seriously. If you never plan on carrying it then try out the feel of a hk45 in a shop and see how you like it.Realistically you'll like both so try and catch a deal on GB and see which one you end up with.
>>65493370Mainspring housing likely does not let the grip safety pivot far enough to block the trigger bow. With the slide off you can see the grip safety’s blocking arm operation
>>65493361>and I'm glad he got pardonedMe too, his persecution and trial were among the most Kafkaesque I've seen.
Gonna go shooting tomorrow and planning to bring my PX4 and Glock 19 because I want to see how noticeable of a difference the rotating barrel actually makes, if any. Should I bring my AK too? Poor girl hasn't been to the range in like forever but I don't like maintaining AKs...
>>65493365>>65493389Good to know. Thanks
>>65493305>>65493310Are you 100% confident that you can tell the difference, upon inspection, between a Glock that has had 5k rounds and 20k rounds put through it?10k rounds and 20k rounds?Because I don't think you can reliably do that.
>>65493389I'm that other AnonLarry Vickers and Ken Hackathorn helped design the HK45C and that revision only received slight modifications for the production modelThe HK45 was not left intact and HK had to fuck with it to where it was a different gun>>65493393>Jury of "peers">>65493399AI = Actually IndiansEspecially in terms of intelligence and spiritual essence. To make a bot do the shitposting for them is blatant admission to being no better than a degenerated pajeet
>>65493405Do it.
>>65493416>Bro, why do you hate Indians so much lolYou must not live in the US, UK or Canada>>65493409Hmm, I didn't know that about the HK45c. I'll keep it in mind, thanks
>>65493416Hatred is a strong word. Hate is a willed expression that requires sustained energy expenditureThis is not hate; it is no different than the natural repulsion one feels in response to seeing shit on the street or maggots squirming in meat. It is natural.You must not be anywhere in the first world :)
>>65493416>t.To hell with Indians
Is HK’s biggest weakness their mag capacities?
>>65493461ESL style sentences
>>65493461Reserved for those who have humanity, which frankly, most Indians are bereft of.The Ganges River is the holiest of rivers to them and look at it; you can't even dip in it without contracting some potent contagion. You'd think they'd care, you'd think they'd reflect as a society and see the harm but they can't. The Brahmin had the caste system as they knew how awful those beneath them were. The Brahmin are GONE and any claiming descent is no different than basketball Americans claiming they're of Egyptian descent or from the 12 Lost Tribes.Are some good people? Yes, exceptional; root word being EXCEPTION.
>>65493463My USP holds 17+1 of .45acp so I have no idea what you’re referring to, the stock mags hold 14 if you just change the follower to a smaller .45 Glock one.
>>65493477>If you changeThat's admitting HK, in their factory form, are weak in terms of magazine capacityI own a USP45 Expert, it holds 12 rounds of .45 ACP by default. Could I change out the followers? Yes, but then it wouldn't be stock. Which is the crux of the issue.
>>65493482If you feel 12 rounds of .45 acp isn’t enough I warn you to never go near a 1911.
>>65493485I never liked them and the Browning Hi-Power is the superior Browning design anyway
>>65493407I am 100% confident that the difference between a Glock that has had 5k rounds and 20k rounds put through it is fucking inconsequential, noguns.
>>65493486Fuck you faggot
>>65493463Their biggest weakness is they're overpriced. You're paying a lot for the logo
I'm looking to get into .44 magnum for target shooting and eventually hunting. Thoughts on the S&W 629? I'd buy it new knowing full well the odds of needing warranty work due to bad QC. I just like the design and aftermarket support. I'm leaning towards the 6.5" barrel for practicality but the 5" barrel is most pleasing aesthetically. Full underlug either way.>inb4 get a RugerI think Rugers are ugly, though I'm sure they're great revolvers.>inb4 get a ColtI have a Python already, hate the serrated trigger and the limited grip options, and the Anaconda fixes neither issue.
>>65493487I am 100% confident that the average gun that has had 20k rounds put through it is more likely to fail than the average gun that has had 5k rounds through it.I am right and you are wrong.
>>65493500Revolvers are more feels than reals so it sounds like your heart is already set on the 629. If you or a friend don't reload your own ammo, I wouldn't recommend getting into .44
>>65493509You have never shot more than 1,000 rounds through a single gun in your life.
If anyone wants a Smith and Wesson P99, some guy is selling like a billion of them on GunBroker for like $360 a piece
>>65493519Not an argument.
>>65493407>>65493509Bud, nta, but you're wrong. Glocks are known to just run. They're famous and proven to last tens of thousands of rounds between maintenance. Take it from me, some one who doesn't particularly like glocks, glocks will last dawg.
>>65493518>sounds like your heart is already set on the 629Basically yeah, just looking for experiences from anons who are familiar with the 629 line>If you or a friend don't reload your own ammo, I wouldn't recommend getting into .44I don't reload... yet. I'm stuck in an apartment for the next couple of years for financial reasons (economy is fucked and home prices are insane) but once I have more space I'll be getting into reloading. Until then I'm willing to stick it out buying factory ammo and maybe saving the brass.
>>65493416>why do you hate plague rats so muchI have eyes, ears, a nose, and a soul. It comes as naturally as a gag reflex.
>>65493529They obviously cannot be fired an infinite number of times before failing.One that has had 20,000 rounds through it will, obviously, on average, fail more quickly than one that has had 5,000 rounds through it.I am right. This is obvious, simple, irrefutable logic.
>>65493537>dude, 99.99% is less than 99.999%Petty and moronic. Congratulations. You're a retard.
>>65493501generational izzat lossdo you cover your gun in panchagavya before breaking it in?
>>65492774My gf says it looks normal
>>65493547So, you're implying that a Glock that has shot 20,000 rounds still has 99.99 percent of its lifespan remaining?So, you're implying that the average Glock can shoot 200,000,000 rounds before failing?Congratulations. You're a retard.
>>65493285The point being is who would buy CZoy at their crazy prices with their terrible flaws.
>>65493355The stamped sliders were never good.There was like 5 years where the milled slides were in the 90s.
>>65493463Way over pricedMag capacityThe fact they index off the baseplate so compact models can't take full-sized mags without destroying your extractor/ejector and causing malfunctions.
>>65493463As a morbid obese man in his 30's, the paddle switch.
A Glock that has shot 20,000 rounds is possibly 2/3 of the way towards experiencing a major parts failure.I win the argument.
>>65493477And a factory USP is larger with less capacity than a factory G21. With harsher recoil and a worst trigger, no lights, no aftermarket barrels or other parts. No holsters, all for 3x the price.HKfags are absurd.
>>65493501These are simple immutable truths and not contradictoryEvery man and woman is a starHumans are animalsHumans have natural basal instincts and inherited traits from their lineage no different to other animalsAll humans have the potential to overcome their own basal nature through their own accord and will Not everyone does or will, not everyone is equalOnly humans can be good or evil. Nature itself is not just according to any theological or ethical idea, nature has no morality; but nature is exactYou don't own guns :)
Is there any reason to buying any version of the Ruger Mark that isn't the Mark IV? I'm currently eyeing a Mark II but I'm worried I'll be missing out on features/aftermarket
I was swapping the internals over to an optics cut slide and launched the little spring in the back underneath that rear plate. After that I found out the new slide is out of spec so I couldn't even finish it if I had all the parts. I should have just sent my slide off to get milled.
>>65493500Don't buy S&W anymore. One dude recently bought 3 performance center revolvers, ones timing was so bad it wouldn't fire, the other 2 the trigger wouldn't reset and you'd have to reset them manually, and that's just one instance in many. S&W has gone to absolute shit, especially the revolvers. The only game in town for a 44mag now is ruger sadly.
>>65493589You like the novelty, want it for the collection, or simply like the design better than the Mark IV
>>65493528Neither was your retarded opinion phrased as a statement of fact. My statement of your shooting experience is proven by your further retardation of referencing AI like a brainrotted alpha for lack of personal experience on the subject:>>65493582You can stop making yourself look like a fool any time.
>>65493592Go get a large magnet from the hardware store and you can find the tiny springs you lost by dragging it around the room so long as you havent vaccumed yet.
>>65493582The original argument was "Why would you buy a new Glock when you can get them used for 40-60% off". If you have generational wealth and own your own home and land, sure, but I can grab a $300 Glock 19 or 17 used that probably has under 1000 rounds through it. Probably less than 200
>>65493191I can't figure out what the logo is on the clips and my mind is turning it into furry porn.
>>65493262That wasn't that long ago.
>>65493608Henry HolstersCipher Holster for CZ Shadow 2 Compact specifically. Came with the Discreet Carry Concepts clips and I can swap it over to my PHLster Enigma if I wanted to, it just bolts straight to that face plate thingamajig.
>>65493608it looks like the outline of a person, a heart, an aorta, and two iliac arteries
>>65493268>retards still shill them.I don't shill them but I do still like mine.
>>65493299Handguns last so many rounds 20k is barely scratching the surface. It's not like an ar15.
>>65493399A while back an anon told me that bots were already that advanced and it felt right to me so I believe it.
>>65493603$600 isn't even a lot of money to someone making $40,000 a year and living alone.You're poor.
>>65493662>$600 isn't even a lot of money to someone making $40,000 a year and living alone.Well, provided they don't do retarded things like use Doordash/Uber Eats for every goddamn meal like a lot of retards do.
>>65493399>>65493656Does seem the fake Christian illegal is the one most likely to make or purchase an AI bot script to shitpost on /hg/ for him. What a pathetic and miserable cunt lmao
>>65493670You’re probably talking to him, who else would mention him
>>65493662Spending $600+ when alternatively I could spend $300 and AT MOST have to replace a $12 spring or $100 barrel(but most likely not) sounds like a bad financial decision. What is why people are poor.
>>65493474
>>65493679Real. Poverty is often a mindset.
Glocks are a solved product, there's no reason to ever make any more, just buy them used. Buying a new glock is like buying a new car, only for suckers and smoothbrains.

>>65493694>>65493696Honestly, I don't really see any reason to upgrade from Gen 3 to Gen 5 or 6. I've been told that the Gen 5 has a better barrel but honestly who the fuck cares? Just train more

>>65493704>Honestly, I don't really see any reason to upgrade from Gen 3 to Gen 5 or 6.As someone who doesn't like the prior gen glocks but doesnt mind the gen 6 there isn't really any reason to upgrade from gen 3 to 5 or 6 if you already have a gen 3 you enjoy. However if someone was looking to buy a glock I'd always reccomend the gen 5 or 6 depending on which ergos they prefer as the iterative improvements do make a difference.
>>65493214I'm considering getting into cerakoting and obviously I would do a bunch of parts for free while learning (friends etc) but what is a good amateur price for cerakote if you're working out of an FFL?

>>65494118I got crumbs on my jacketses
For dry fire, I use two inert cartridges and a magazine loaded with live ammunition. One inert cartridge occupies the chamber like a plug, the second functions as redundancy to keep the live ammunition separate. The idea is to mimic the weight of live fire.>>65493393>>65493409I looked into how Daniel Perry's defense failed, his first mistake was speaking to investigators (never do this, you have the right to remain silent). He told the investigator that the AK wasn't pointed at him, expressed remorse that Foster died and that his death was unintentional thus undermining his own legal strategy and self incriminating in the process.https://youtu.be/FmHLZmVOLC0

And I don't care what he thought, Foster absolutely was pointing his rifle at people while he was standing in front of their car. You can see him do it in videos taken at the time. The fat retard got what he deserved, only it should've been the cops that shot him the first time he stepped in front of a car.

>>65494628Not really a thing with handguns, consider typical alternative to boresight is zeroing on extremely close (25 yard) target.We also don't wait cold barrel for every shot.

>>65494852>Oh boy another chinese optic line!!! I feel my soi level spiking I gotta consooooom the china optic
Stupid question, but is it bad to chamber and manually eject the same round multiple times without firing it?I saw a little ding on the throat of the casing after being in there then ejected, assuming it is no big deal
>not buying chinese red dots>not buying american gunssimple as
>>65494874It can cause bullet setback which is where the bullet is pushed farther into the case. Just hold it next to an unused round and see if they are close. It can get set back a bit and still be safe but you still want to avoid that. Alternate between rounds every so often and you can keep it up for years.
>>65494871Made in America.
>>65494874little dings on the throat of the casing are big in the cruising community. you're basically holding a big neon "open for business" sign. good way to get cored out
>>65494887If I see dings on the round someone has chambered I’ll follow them into the bathroom and 9/10 I’m going to be in his guts as soon as the door closes.

>>65494851laser boresights are already a retarded item, at least there's some small degree of collimation happening with the shitty fake shell ones that fit in a long enough rifle barrel that will vaguely get you on paper, but if you haven't already zeroed a pistol boresight, why would zeroing your gun off an un-zeroed boresight be useful?

>>65494901it happens often but most concealed carriers are unaware what they're doing by keeping those dinged cartridges in their edc

>>65495089Ruger > Colt > SJW
>>65494842Yeah, I really don't think everyone and their mother needs to come out with optics that do the exact same thing without adding any features, but people in the gun space are infamous for buying stuff like that.
>>65494118An ultrasonic cleaner would smoke all that
>>65494249Keep your faith in God, anon.
>>65494825According to Colt> The MRS-1's low profile co-witnesses with many standard-height irons on the ACRO footprint, so either setup is on the table. Pick the one that matches how you actually run the gun.
>>65495097Kill yourself retard
>>65494874>chamber and manually eject the same round multiple timesDefense ammunition from reputable manufacturers is designed for that. Federal HST has a blue adhesive along the case mouth as redundancy for the bullet seat but I still try to chamber it slowly instead of using the slide release. To load a single cartridge, I dedicate a factory 17-rounder which competition shooters call a "Barney mag". After a month, this cartridge gets replaced and set aside for eventual use at the range.>>65494295>FB messagesYeah, it's best not to publicise anything on social media that might be construed as premeditation
>>65493926I actually have a Beretta 1301 LE next to my bed, I just like the idea of having a suppressed pistol with 17+1 rounds of .45 and 1500 lumens available as well.

>>65495233I did, and I'm very happy about it.
>>65495264Impressive, very nice.
>>65495255I'll have to find a shop to hold them. If the standard would feel similar to my mark 1 then the target and competition both look good.

Hammerli Trailside or Ruger MKIV for bullseye shooting?
>>65495498Yeah man same. I have talked on here before about how i didn't care for my 92 inox and sold it off a while back, but seeing more of these comped Italian stallions makes me covetous
>>65495516The comp really sells it for me. It's one reason I'd ever want another 9, sexy gun all around
>>65495223Based, how do you like the 1301? Any reason you picked it over the beneli M4? Got a buddy who is between the two atm.
>>65495560not him but the 1301 is more compact and lighter weight. i also like the traditional grip over the pistol since it reduces its signature even more
>>654955601301 does not have a recoil tube so it can have a folding stock or no stock at all. It was cheaper that the M4 significantly for a while until people realized how good it was.

>>65495636I just disassembled some 12ga turkshit and that shit was ass. Fun as fuck to run at the range though
>>65495675the M4 is nice because you just unscrew the mag tube dingus, yank the charging handle, and pull on the barrel and the guts disassemble themselvesI 100% believe that benelli understood that retards underwater on their 25% APR dodge chargers would be using and maintaining them and designed it with that in mind

>>65495728>watched a bunch of people run it at matches with no problemsOk. Thanks. Seems better than a 930 and cheaper than a 1301.
>>65495816>Seems better than a 930completely anecdotal but at my last shotgun match, I watched a 930 shit the bed several times with low power birdshot, then something broke in the action when I donated the guy some pissin' hot S&B 12 ball buck

So how's the build quality on those Turkish repro Berettas I've seen floating around?
>>65496012My guess is that most 92 clones are "good enuff" if you just want to own a 92 cause it looks cool. But you can get real 92s, American or Italian made, for so cheap why even bother with clones in the first place outside of novelty?
Once again asking for some 84bb grip advice. Trying to find the OEM walnut grips. Main ebay seller out of stock. Per Berettaforums, only the 84, 84b, and 84bb are interchangeable gripwise. Source: >https://berettaforum.net/vb/showpost.php?p=873336&postcount=6Yet lots of redditors and the like seem fine using ones not listed explicitly for the 84/b/bb. I would prefer the maximum amount of walnut possible because good wood grips are sexy. But do the modern 84f/85fs Beretta sells work with old 84bbs? Not opposed to some rasp & filework but I want as close to the OG dark walnut grips as I can get, WITH the metal medallion, none of that laser cut wood shit.
I want it so bad but I just bought a gunhttps://www.gunbroker.com/item/1191649544
>>65496012>>65496035Probably cant be any worse than Taurus PTwhatevers. What I'd wanna check is what parts compatability there is. I assume the slide is gonna be OK, same for the frame, but if you can get 5-20 dollar replacement springs or pins from Beretta at a worst case, that should be enough.
>>65495089Yes, the anaconda is very cool and probably a good revolver but I don't want one because as I mentioned in >>65493500 I want a smooth trigger shoe and lots of grip options>>65493593I know the QC is ass, the QC is also ass at Colt which is the only other option I was considering. I'm considering the S&W 629 despite the known issues because I really like the design and I'm confident the issues can be resolved on warranty.I would likely send it to the performance center anyway since they have some services I'm interested in like bead blasting and charge hole chamfering. And if I get it done through them instead of an independent gunsmith I can still rely on the warranty
>>65496093The only way I would recommend this is if you have a stupid amount of disposable income and all your other needs and wants are met. You're buying a handgun from a company with known QC issues(and it's not even us saying it, ask any fudd or revolver shooter on the internet) that you want to put MORE money into AND in an expensive caliber that you don't have any way to reload.The only barrel you're looking down is one of a bad financial decision
>>65496093>the QC is also ass at Colt Worse than you could possibly imagine LOL
>>65496107>The only way I would recommend this is if you have a stupid amount of disposable income and all your other needs and wants are met. >The only barrel you're looking down is one of a bad financial decisionA slight exaggeration but you are not wrong. It's rough out there for revolverbros. I budgeted it out though and I estimate the total cost of new 629 + performance center work + grips + lock delete kit would be about $1,580. That's more than it should be, but less than an Anaconda with grips and sights I find acceptable. And a hell of a lot less than a Spohr or Korth which seem to be the only revolvers of high baseline quality that don't seem to have QC issues.Not saying it's a smart financial decision by any means, but it's not the worst
>>65495607Function over form, anon. Having only tritium lamps myself it's more difficult to target focus and maintain sight awareness in adverse lighting unless it's brighter downrange than from where I'm shooting. Since ADS is considered trivial within 15 yards, I will be experimenting with instinctual shooting or canting the slide corner to aim.>>65495332>>65495504Exquisite. >>65495476They're adult women, anon.
>>65496154I miss when SGT was banned
>>65495607I really wish [and I know why realistically] there were good flip up holographic sights desu. Like a spring loaded pair of glass reticles with fiber optics or something so you could run the pistol with tritium irons, and then engage these things if you wanted. IDGAF, guide rod lasers are cool as fuck. Imagine infrared guide rod lasers with sunglasses that let you see the dot which would otherwise be invisible. Would be great for point shooting and shit. I recognize optics do make pistol shooting good but I've never really felt like my pistol skills need to be sub moa either. I can hit anything I'm aiming at with irons good enough even if I can recognize optics are better.
Sigsters...I get it.
>>65496118Oh I know. I'm convinced I'm the last guy to get a working Python from the factory (bought mine in 2022). Both guys I know irl who bought one had to send it back to Colt at least once.
