Am I really supposed to throw away my carry gun ammo and replace it every day? This is getting expensive.
>thumbed the slide catchHow does this keep happening?
Is VP70 trigger as horrible as people making it out to be ?
>>65566201>>65566211You're retarded enough to shoot yourself accidentally.
>>65566273Only throw away setback cases
>>65566274One of the worst crossfires I've ever seen
My humble handgun collection. Holosun 509T incoming this week for the G19.
>>65566334Now nowI ain't no Halo Studios
>>65566273Yes, literally every day. Even every 12 hours if you want to be safe.
>>65566392This. You can do the same for your car's engine. I replace my engine every 200-300 miles and I've never once had engine problems in my life!
>>65566341
>>65566371wheres the VP9
>>65566188I like your thread
SÖĪ ZED DOODYWAT DOES WE THINK OF IT?
>>65566273If you leave your gun loaded in the holster you basically are golden so long as you don't live in a very humid area. Otherwise rotate the rounds in your magazine/have the first one be a wear item that you replace once the bullet starts sitting further back in the case.
>>65566489>
>when you throw out a lowball and they go for it
went to a competition with a brand new gundamn i scored bad, didnt know point of impact until late in, but it was fun
why did nobody warn me that ballistol smells like farts
>>65566273I only rotate ammo once a week. On Saturday, right after the weekly bath.
>>65566609Based and Mr. Chow pilled
>>65566688It smells like lovely licorice once your nose gets burnt out on the stink though.
>>65566688I would say it smells like sweat soaked socks but once it settled a for a few seconds it smells very nice like licorice.
>>65566371Favorite so far?
Now I am not here to cause another Sig argument and I will preface this with your results may vary, but I was thinking back to the Sig P232.My father had one about 10-12 years ago and I shot maybe 200 rounds from it and my father shot another 500 rounds, it was a pig of a gun, or at least the .380ACP model was. Sure, slide bite is the most publicized issue, but that is honestly the least of the concerns, the gun was a jam-o-matic. There was at least one jam per magazine and it did not matter what ammo it was either a stovepipe or a bolt-over-base jam, sometimes half the time spent shooting it was clearing the jams. The P232 has to go back to Sig twice and neither time was it fixed. As it turns out the frame warps ever so slightly with usage, quite quickly and, with Sig being Sig, they made the tolerances tight but did not account for this warpage. Not to say that all Sigs are like this, but it did sour my taste on Sig.This has nothing to do with people talking about P320s and P365s and they might be good or bad guns, however you look at them, but not everyone's experience is the same.
>>65566749>Sig P232Invalid, deprecated, obsolete. If you have one please take some pictures, post them, then oil it well with cum lube gold guard and hodl forever. Not carry gun. Not truck gun. Not home defense gun. Not even a girlfriend rental gun.
>>65566580p10c but the frame looks like a taurus
I only use shitty old guns.
SEX WITH HK P30
>>65566767It was sold off ~2016/2017. My father bought it because it was "le PPK but big" (this is his thought process). He is a really good shot, but he is autistic about gun purchases and lives in the past (he was 70-ish at the time of using the P232).I can take pictures of the PPK later, if I remember.
>>65566307Nobody here is a rich enough to have one
>>65566849We have a guy here who owns 3-4 Matebas don’t we?
>>65566307I only have experience with the VP70Z (semi-auto civilian version) but it is exactly as bad as described.There is no reason to own one unless you are a fan of Resident Evil 2
>>65566849I would buy one if I cared about it. Someone else should bite the bullet and get it.
>>65566780Did the P-10C have this same optics mounting solution?
>>65566580It's more uninspired polymer strikershit that doesn't do anything the P10C wasn't already doing.>But muh modular trigger pack!I don't give a shit unless the company building the gun releases a variety of grip modules on release day. And it doesn't say on their webpage if the CZ Duty mags are compatible with any other CZ design. This shit is the reason why Glock continues to do well in 2026.
>>65566488Tried one a few years ago and the controls rubbed my support hand thumbs raw when gripping it.>>65566720I'd have to say the Arex Rex Zero 1 Tactical and the USP. The Arex has basically no recoil and the USP is accurate as hell when I shoot at 15 yds,
>>65566919P-10 mags fit the Duty to my understanding. This seems like a bit of a surprise and rushed release. CZ did say they are working with a few manufacturers for aftermarket grip modules. I expect Magpul to do something.
>>65566307I saw one in the used gun cabinet at Cabela's and asked to dry fire it but the lady behind the counter wouldn't let me :(
>>65566580>P10 2: Pee TennierBoy howdy the future sure is fucking gay.The CZ75 dying wouldn't sting so much if the Jericho hadn't been pozzed and Tanfoglio hadn't stopped importing the regular Witness line.
>>65566938Next time, dont ask
>>65566995Unfortunately they seem to put trigger locks on everything now but if I could relive the moment I'd totally give it the ol' PERSONAAAAAAAAAA. I probably wouldn't be able to go back to that Cabela's but they've since gutted their used gun selection anyway so fuck 'em. I only go there out of nostalgia.
What’s up with the “modular” duty pistols coming out? Most departments probably aren’t going to let their people fuck with their firearms like that are they?
>>65567055It'll be armorers setting everything up. As for why, the old fogeys in charge of everything don't like anything new UNLESS that new thing is stupid as all hell, then it's mandatory. This goes for all things.
>>65567055>Most departments probably aren’t going to let their people fuck with their firearmsYour average cop knows less about their firearms than your average /hg/ lurker, let alone those of us who shoot regularly. I was in law enforcement for 15 years and worked with multiple agencies and most of these departments (even larger metropolitan and state ones) have defacto "gun guys" that everyone takes their stuff to when it needs to be cleaned or repaired. It's getting even worse now that departments are adding dots to their service weapons and officers go home and leave it on so the batteries burn out. Modularity in handguns is a pure meme. It's as dumb as those guys who buy a gun in .40 S&W so they can get a barrel in .357 Sig "so I never have to worry about an ammo shortage"
>>65567104The more insidious problem is that cops all assume that they're "gun guys" even when they clearly aren't. They think the badge means they get that cred for free.See it all the time at the store.
>>65567042>Cabela's but they've since gutted their used gun selection anywayWhy did this happen? ~2 years ago my local Cabela's had a huge used gun inventory that was constantly changing such that going in on any given evening was a fun little lottery to see if anything interesting popped up, and to see what else had disappeared. Now for used guns they have a couple mexican revolvers and some overpriced surp wallhangers.Where did all the Cabela's used gun inventory go?
>>65567125gunbroker for a quick influx of cash
>>65567108Your average LEO treats their job like the rest of us treat ours. Essentially, we don't wanna have to think about it when we are not on the clock. I've dealt with hundreds of officers of all varying levels in my life and they're usually pretty chill but most of them couldn't pass the /hg/ challenges. The firearm requirements for most departments are extremely easy because they don't want to weed out any one
>>65567104>buy a gun in .40 S&W ... "so I never have to worry about an ammo shortage"That's not unreasonable, .40 Superb & White is the last common caliber to get cleaned off the shelves. Or maybe you're just implying that it's pointless to consider because if you're worried about ammunition shortages the solution is to stack when it's available rather than panic buy when it's not.
>>65567135But they constantly had fresh used inventory, implying that people were selling a lot of used guns to Cabela's. What happened to that market? They still buy used guns. Does Cabela's have a GB account? It drives me crazy because the end of the Cabela's/BP used gun counter was the end of brick-and-mortar gun shopping for me in Albuquerque.
>>65567144I think they chuck it all in a warehouse somewhere. If you look online it lists thousands of pieces
Which px4 compact version is the best? Why is there an LTT one and then the Carry 2? Or am I confusing them?
>>65566580Looks a lot like the steyr m9.Isn’t the steyr a chasis thingy too?Did they straight up copy it?
>>65567153The “LTT” is the Carry 2 from LTT so it has their trigger job. The Compact Carry and Compact Carry 2 are collaboration guns with Langdon with all of his wanted features so they’re available from Beretta or LTT, only the LTT ones have the trigger job.I’m not sure but the CC2 used to come with the nickel plated Competition trigger group that Langdon uses as a base for his trigger job, so it was already smoother than stock and you could just get the trigger bar for 70% of the same thing but for less. Beretta stopped making the Competition Trigger Group a year or two ago. But basically you don’t “need” the trigger job and just Langdon’s trigger bar is enough to give you the super short reset.
>>65567170Wrong video
>>65567173>>65567170Got it. Thanks.
>>65567144They’re taking a brokerage model essentially now. They stock cheap and easy impulse buys in person and keep the good shit at random locations that you can order and pick up.
>>65567138>Or maybe you're just implying that it's pointless to consider because if you're worried about ammunition shortages the solution is to stack when it's available rather than panic buy when it's not.Almost all my handguns are in 9mm. I don't worry about shortages because I used the money I saved by not buying shitty guns to instead just have a huge stockpile of ammo>>65567153You can do the LTT one but that's pretty expensive. The Compact Carry 2 is made by Beretta and has a few upgrades from LTT. I think for your average shooter the Compact Carry 2 is your best bet and then after 10k rounds or so if there are things you want to change, go for it
>>65566188Can anyone vouch for Arex Delta/Rost Martin RM1C? Looking to get one as a compact CCW, RM1C is the same gun but made in America and I did like the grip
Complete the challenge of the month or YOU DIE.>full colorhttps://files.catbox.moe/kn1njm.pdf>grayscalehttps://files.catbox.moe/wb9c2e.pdf>light modehttps://files.catbox.moe/bk0ocq.pdf
>>65567104>get a barrel in .357 Sig "so I never have to worry about an ammo shortage"Based. You remember during the covid crunch, when that Federal/CCI bigwig posted a video to tell everyone they're still producing ammo night and day? And it was all glorious 357 SIG.
When you're torquing a muzzle device on a pistol barrel do you just throw the slide in a vise and call it good or do you try to get the barrel part way out of the slide so you can put a flat spot in the vise while the slide just flops around and watches?
Did anyone get their Colt optic yet?
>>655672491 person did, posted here >>65558763>>65558763I ordered two and they shipped yesterday
.357 Sig is currently roughly .50 cpr so you're essentially paying double the price for slightly different 9mm. So unless you're generationally wealthy or you reload and actually bother to save the brass, .357 Sig fans are either noshoots (aka faggots) or they make bad financial decisions (which we already knew based on their choice of gun)
>>65567170why is your trigger finger so yellow
>>65567247Why are you torquing things onto a pistol barrel? That’s retarded. Don’t do that.
>>65567282was eating doritos then someone asked about LTT trigger bars vs stock
>>65567288How else will I make it stay on?
>>65567298I weld mine
>>65567298If you are really having tremendous problems with something staying on your barrel, rocksett it and dunk it in water for four hours when you need it offRTFM for whatever you’re installing, if it says hand tight, put it on hand tight. Most quality muzzle devices will tell you to index and use a set screw. If it doesn’t have a set screw, it’s probably a little piece of shit like those HKParts compensators that are basically thread protectorsTorquing things on to a pistol barrel will ruin something at some point, because there is no shoulder on most pistol barrels, so your torque value is coming either from biting the taper where the threads end or your crown, not stretch against the barrel shoulder because there isn’t one
>>65566919It's mainly a bunch of little ergonomic improvements that are popular on the market. Even Glock has done a lot of those with Gen 6. Does it have to be an entirely new design with each iteration?
>>65566273Just use a clearing bucket before bed each night.
>>65567333That's equally expensive and much louder.
>Berettanon could be here
>>65567351
>reading about all these horror stories of trying to replace the sights on the px4>apparently the rear sight is hellish to remove even for some gunsmiths:(
>>65567396I was using the MGW sight pusher and the slide rail block specifically for the PX4 (uses the slide rails to help hold it), and didn’t have any issues
>>65567407That gives me some hope. really hoping it's not too bad when i go for it.
>>65566580https://youtu.be/xcOMnwrYpM4Why use one of the wildest, most unorthodox strikers (no pun intended) to advertise your boring striker that's doing what everyone else is doing. Seems like a waste of a good jiri
>>65567247>the barrel part way out of the slide so you can put a flat spot in the viseThat's how I did it. You could probably get away with the other option if you're gentle with it, but I can't see any reason why you would.While >>65567317 is largely correct, my barrel did indeed have a shoulder (1/2-28 threads on a 357 SIG barrel), and I counterbored the comp to clock up when tightened against that shoulder.The comp in question (Springer Precision) does not have a set-screw. As I recall the instructions amounted to: apply threadlocker, screw it all the way on, back off to clock it, then wait for the thread-locker to cure. But I did it my way.
>>65567455Is that Kadyrov's son?
>>65567463No it's Procházka, although his beard is getting a little fluffier currently it seems
>>65567407I thought that was plankton in the thumbnail
>>65567459>apply threadlocker, screw it all the way on, back off to clock it, then wait for the thread-locker to cureWTF why not just shim
>>65567539Trying to keep it easy and universal, I think. Shims would work in this application, but not in others where the thread is too large to leave a significant shoulder, so they keep the same simple instructions for all versions.And for all I know, it might work just fine; not an experiment I cared to run.
>>65566791I’d like to try one. I hardly ever go to indoor ranges so renting isn’t on the menu.
>>65567233I printed some out at work today. Won’t be able to shoot until this weekend but I have plans so I’ll have to see if I can squeeze it in on Sunday.
>>65567396It's a pretty shitty gun all around.
>>65566767>>65566806Here is the PPK that my father carries. It is picky on ammo, it really does not like PMC Bronze. He uses a Beretta Model 21A as a backup carry. I don't have pictures at the moment.
>>65566188How well does fuddy five do from a 3 inch barrel, ive always conceptually and aesthetically liked the colt defender but am iffy on shelling out $1k for one when theres cheaper options or just not getting a short barrel fuddy five
>>65567761Terrible.
>>65567761http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/45auto2.htmlYou tell me
>>65567780185 grain doesnt look too shabby, nor would i assume 200 with a tad more sectional density but still ok velocities
>>65567783Generally in these situations I wait for some super smart person to come by and tell me which ammo to shoot out of my Glock 30S. I mainly carry just range ammo in it as I know it will feed
>>65566749Can't even blame Sig USA on that one. It's just how it is
Anyone ever used a Rost Martin RM1? I am looking into the compact for CCW. It really is just a Arex Delta made in America.
>>65567821It shoots softer than the original, and overall everything is a little bit more melted, but if you shot a Delta before you know what you're in for.
>>65567831Well I do like the grip style, am bored of Glock and don’t want sig when the jewish conman in charge charges $60 a mag with indian partsI wanted arex and only today found out rost martin exists
>>65567821>I am looking into the compact for CCWHow about the PX4 or CSX-E, my good man
>>65567840>PX4Eh, I was thinking of the APX A1 compact>CSX-E Like the PX4 no optics cut out of the box plus it no rail for a light, its a necessity I put a streamlight and EPS on because I think it looks cool
>>65567840RM1c is thinner and easier to carry
>>65567840How is the csx, i got a kimber micro 9 and while its nice and all i also think that looks enticing
>>65567864Yeah I am looking at one for a carry gun not range toy
>>65567864>>65567908The RM1C on paper is a little smaller than a Glock 19 so there's probably no issue carrying it. If you think it's cool or looks sexy, go for it. Otherwise, why not just carry a Glock(clone)
>want to buy trausch grips for my MR73>find it on Opticsplanet but don't want to gamble on whether it'll actually show up>email chapuis>no response>ask beretta>they don't have it>a week later chapuis guy emails me back>chapuis guy sends me to a beretta rep>beretta rep sends me to another beretta rep>2nd beretta rep says they can sell me a pair>2nd beretta rep responds the next day saying oops they actually can't sell me Trausch grips, but I can get it from another site>it's OpticsPlanet againmfw
>>65567953Try ebay?
I hate every modern handgun manufacturer.
>>65567912Biggest reasons would probably be price point, striker indicator, handfeel. I've heard that the customer service is actually really good, unlike Glock which is basically legal mediation. It would be a tough sell over a RXM though, unless that grip just doesn't do it for you.
>>65568022>Hating yourself Lmao, faggot
>>65568039How did you know I work for cz?
>>65568040You work for CZ? I thought you worked for Glock
I hate everything and I work for HK.

I can never tell if you guys are just contrarian assholes or if you really do all want to be hipsters in the same way. Anyway, best leather holster for a px4 compact?

>>65566609Holy based. Now you just need a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.
>>65566791Is it just me or do these things have the worst triggers of all time? I don't know if it's because I have the manual safety model or because it's a requirement for German cops, but my USP 45 and HK45CT both have much better triggers than my P30.
>>65568158>>65568126My boots are argonian leather, outlander

>>65567821Why not just get an RXM at that point?
>>65568118Enjoy your microplastics in your balls
>>65568245It's funny because the gun industry invented the whole "microcompact" segment of the market specifically to cater to kydextards who refuse to carry a pistol unless they can comfortably use a hard bulky Fisher Price holster to point the muzzle at their dicks.
>>65568163People seem to despise the p30 trigger. I think that’s the only complaint I ever hear about it
>>65567327I thought it was a completely new pistol at first with minimal parts compatibility at best. I'm retarded, I didn't see the similarities to the P10.
>>65568271I think it's weird how the whole microcompact 9 market was born from the belief that a G26 or P2000sk is too thick for concealment, but at the same time, holsters have grown into these giant contraptions of sidecars, claws, wedges, pillows, and all other sorts of shit like Enema holsters. Why the need to reinvent the wheel when the market is flush with the lightest, most concealable handguns ever made?
>>65568355>holsters have grown into these giant contraptions of sidecarsLow key the holster thickness is important. Some, especially kydex holsters make guns thicker than others. I carry with a trigger guard holster sometimes without telling anyone.
>>65568355>P2000skI regret not snagging one of the LEM models in 40 when they were being clearanced.
actual question, is there any actual benefit to all of these guns all using the weird polymer material? I don't see how its better than steel
>>65568377It weighs 2% less and it saves the company a ton of money
>>65568377>This post appears to be an automated spambot
>>65568382>saves the company a ton of moneyoh thank god
>>65568377Lighter, cheaper, doesn't rust (which is to say, doesn't need anti-rust finish, so cheaper again), can mold arbitrarily complex and ugly gripzones for zero marginal cost vs taking time to machine/stipple the front- and back-strap (yep, even more cheaper).The best part is, because it's lighter, which is a benefit* to the consumer, you can sell it for the same price and they think they're getting a bargain, while you pocket all the savings.*unless it's a competition gun, of course. But in that case, you can put tungsten powder in the plastic to make it weigh as much as steel, and charge even more for it.
>>65567821>Strikerslop made by a black guy At that point I'd rather get a dagger micro so I at least have a small chance a black person isn't involved in making my gun.

>>65568865RMRs are gay because you have to remove them to get the battery out.
>>65568865Go full race gun.RMR HD
Do those new Colt dots actually have 50k hour battery life or are they doing a maths involving the shake-awake where the battery actually only lasts 1000 hours and they assume it will only be on 2% of the time?

My Gunner's Custom Holster order is shipping soon. I usually OWB but under a jacket because I'm a lanklet and don't wanna dress like a wigger. Anyways looking at other options on a worst case of this holster not being good. Does anyone have a holster from Parabellum CW? I like this for a more obvious range/duty holster: https://www.parabellumcw.com/products/cz-p01-level-2-retention-holster?variant=44358282379580You can pretty much find shitty reviews for every holster maker cause plastic and plastic shipped through 120+f temperatures & baking in the sun does weird shit, so I wanted to ask what the actual consensus is? My worst problem is being left handed, and then light-specific issues alongside preferring OWB holsters [EG my P01 has a surefire xc1-b and a lleft handed holster that can take an XC1-b for a P01 is a very narrow window of models] so I am always looking for recommendations on good holsters. Any recs for teklok type upgrades? Are there teklok options that are the same dimensional specs but made out of better plastic or plastic/metal hybrids? I definitely prefer that vs paddles that can be removed from force alone.
>>65568865If I already CGW/CZC'd my normal P01, [>>65568945], is there much of a benefit to the Shadow 2 compact? I'd suck a cock for a steel frame but can't find one. Have my own opinions on the springs/trigger weights but otherwise is there anything it does that a normal P01 doesn't do?>Looking at the comparison photo the dimensions are more different than I thought, didn't expect the Shadow 2 to be that much taller. Can you speak on the grip angle/shape? Lowkey curious to see how a shadow 2 slide on a P01 frame/the reverse would handle but I would still take the mythical steel frame over anything else
>>65568961i have only shot a shadow 2 compact from one i borrowed at the range, and it felt amazing, so i bought one. havent shot mine yet, since i got it last week

>>65566188Hello guys, I’m here just to share my first handgun (the first one I bought myself — I still have a few left by my brother and dad).A few years ago I went through a horrible period (I lost my job, half of my family died, and I lost my home). Many of you helped me when I had to sell some of my guns. Since then I’ve been able to get a good job at a bank, and I decided to buy something for myself.I bought a Beretta 84BB. I paid 500 euros for it — I know I got robbed, but this is the gun I wanted. I just like the aesthetic (more than the F models and the new ones with rails).Now the only things I still need to do are buy some chestnut grips for it and replace the small parts that have lost their color.Thank you again for the help during that time. You guys are the best
>>65569009My condolences. I'm glad you're doing better in some aspects of life. I also love the 84BB. Feels great to hold and shoot. Beretta ftw.
>>65568987>Reloading post COVID Look at Mr. Moneybags over here!
>>65568987>Learn2reloadreloading is BARELY cheaper these days.
>>65568812Nope. It is one made in Fort Smith. My father also had a Manurhin PPK (which was issued to some police force, but I forget the country) but sold it, and then got the new one. He thought the Manurhin was more of a collecting gun whereas he wanted one for shooting and not have to worry about value. He wants a S&W J-frame next (but he is open to a LCR) and he actually doesn't mind the thought of carrying .38SPL, which is a little more reasonable than .32ACP. Again, this is an 80 year old who sometimes needs a cane, so he can't exactly carry a .45. Or at least that is what he thinks. That won't be for a little while, though, but maybe I will encourage him once I do my gun purchases.
>>65568088Ok, I still don’t like the looks or price and got the Rost Martin while it was on sale
>>65569009>more than the ... new ones with railsThey look so much better without the rails. Sorry about what happened but happy you are turning things around.
What's the best looking striker fired? Ignoring glocks because I actually like how they look.
>>65569035
>>65569041Do you like Rost Martin/Arex? I just ordered a RM1C which is just a Delta made in Dallas, really liked the grip more than my Glock
>>65569041You know I was actually thinking about my friend's steyr m9 today.
>>65569053Never touched or owned, dunno>>65569054The OG looks great but I think all the A's look like A if you catch my wink
>>65569035>>65569052This is also a good pick.
>>65569041Where's the rail? Also yeah mine is gorgeous too. A shame the trigger is one I ended up hating. A CZ style trigger and a hammer with an option for a flush style 'hammerless' outside with just the notch in the slide would have made it fire so much better IMO. Cant' believe I fell for the 1911 style trigger thing lmao.
>>65568472It's a Turkish SAR K2 45c. 14 round double stack CZish clone. It feels good to shoot but it has crazy FTF, the .45 round hangs up on the top hood of the chamber 2 or 3 times per magazine.
>>65568061Been shopping around for one with a frame mounted safety and factory threaded barrel but so far no dice. Might have to just buy the threaded barrel separate.
>>65569107Only newly made options are the 92x Performance/Defensive, and the 94x? 95? Whatever that one is. You can try to find an OLLLLLD one or the 92/96 Combat, those had frame safeties, but at that point you'd either pay way more than the high end modern ones, or it'd take a ton of parts replacements. No, the GTS has a decocker as far as I can tell, I dont know why half the info on it says safety and it looks like a safety but it is a frame decocker.
>>65569078Some of it's still in my lungs probablyI got the trigger to be pretty good with some tweaking of the sear spring a la 1911 and overtravel stop
>>65566373>traffic slowed due to mis formatted OPbased retard
>>65567459Interesting. Do you think you would have had enough shoulder and enough room to use a crush washer?Do you think you would have had enough threads to use a jam nut?
>>65569176Crush washer would've definitely worked, at the (aesthetic) expense of a bigger gap between slide and comp.Jam nut is a maybe. The comp's aluminum, so I'd think very carefully about how many threads are left engaged.
>>65568597>>65568836Very early aluminum framed P1s had frame issues, but they corrected the issue by reinforcing the frame. You can tell one has a reinforced frame by the hex shaped cross pin between the takedown lever and the slide stop lever.
>>65569062>Never touched or owned, dunnoFrom my understanding its Glock internals with sig style grip, I got a good deal on it
found a direct mount red dot for a shadow 2company called vector opticsis it worth using a noname chinkshit red dot for 200 bucks over irons?
>>65569318Can I have $200 instead?
>>65569323Aw God damn it I forgot about that rule. This was a joke don't be fucking dicks.
>>65569318EPS Carry fits just fine without a plate dude
>>65569328on a carry yes, but not on a compact
>>65568961handgunhero fucked up its scale when it loaded it for you, for some reason. the shadow 2 compact is basically identical to the previous cz 75 compact models in overall silhouette.
>>65569331>Checked>It's realThanks for beta testing, white boi
>>65569248You didn't answer the question. Can you show more than one (1) example of a cracked frame? If this is an "issues" there should be dozens if not hundreds of pictures of it. They made millions of the fucking things.
>>65569346>non-white opinionWhy would you think anyone cares?
>>65569346im only interested in rmr dots anyway so dont care
>>65569353I believe that it is fair to assume that walther didn't go out of their way to reinforce the frame of the P1 for no reason.
>>65569343The po1 is still a lot sexier
>>65568885Do they admit that anywhere or do you just have to assume that they gave it an auto-off and auto-on feature for a reason?
>>65568888>I'll skip the rmr>tell me more about the rmrWhy would you lie to me like that?
>add rails to gun>ruins aestheticfuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>65569318Vectors are amazonium trash, a step below even viridian or Gideon. Does the holosun SCS meant for the p10 share the same footprint as the shadow 2s or am I misremembering? Those are like 250-275.
>>65568888RMR HD has a top mounted battery.
>>65568878Nobody has even had the optic for 50k hours yet The acro claims 50k hours, mine lasted like two years on the first battery, and the acro doesn’t have shake awake. I kept it low for storage and only found out it was super low battery at a match when the brightness buttons stopped working I have two Colt optics on route
>>65569436sugoi but i like the rcr more
>>65569380>no cross pin on my blown out gun
>>65569492RCR is fucking dog shit and died on me at a matchyou don't have one obviously since you said you like it, no one likes it, the mounting system is garbage worst thing ever designed. hope you fucking DIE if you actually have one
like the ACRO P2 is better than the RCR >window sizeget good. window size is a crutch or training wheels. if you were actually good, you would be shooting fully occluded, both eyes open
>>65569526Seethe bitch nigga
>>65569526The RCR is great on my shotgun but I agree the mounting system is fucking giga cancerWho puts “bend the included Allen wrench using the included torque angle card” in instructions?
>>65569554No. You're the little bitch going to pay 645 for a piece of garbage, I got mine for 570 because they were fucking handing them out on launch since nobody wanted one. You're likely a transexual or an ally of transexuals with a take this retarded. Dude I would not buy one for 300. Or 200. The first gun I put it on the RMR height BUIS were too low to even see since the skyscraper deck height DESPITE HAVING NO BOTTOM BATTERY made the deck height TALLER THAN A RMR TYPE 2. People have to sell RCR height irons instead of RMR height now. Do you know how you verify torque on the RCR? You can't use your fix it stick torque wrench. You bend one of the two supplied allen keys 30 degrees. Lose that allen? SOOL. You use that allen too many times and it's permanently bent? SOOL. Glad it died because it couldn't handle .45 ACP recoil. anyone who likes the RCR needs to be mercy killed.
>>65569570Would you buy one for 150?
>>65569564>The RCR is great on my shotgun but I agree the mounting system is fucking giga cancerI thought about moving it to my shotgun but never got around to it before it died. Even then, any other enclosed optic is pretty much better. I'd take an ACRO P2, the colt optic is half the price and made just a few miles away and has a bigger window, better mounting interface, shake wake, better button placement, better in every conceivable way. I think it might have better glass with less parallax than the RCR too.
>>65569577I wouldn't buy one with someone else's 150 dollars
>>65568166A lot of people would rather have a new gun with a warranty. Plus Rost Martin gives you all this for a fair pricehttps://grabagun.com/rost-martin-rm1c-compensated-black-9mm-4-barrel-17-rounds-package.html
>645>quite possibly the worst enclosed optic by a major brand name released>745>super low deck bigger window better bezel design better mount HTX-1>389>Colt's ACRO that's better in every way but assembled in the US
>>65569518What are you implying, exactly?
>>65568176they have some with mos cuts but it's 470https://www.wistransfers.com/product/police-trade-in-glock-19-gen-5-mos-9mm-151-optic-ready-grade-2
>>65569526I like mine because it's a classic RMR but closed and the battery is on top. Why would I care about the screws, which are annoying, when unlike the RMR I only have to redo them never if I never move it to another gun. When I have moved it between guns it's a few extra minutes of fiddling. muh torque is a non-issue when threadlocker and tight enough have been working perfectly for decades.>but what if it was accidentally torqued to 13 in-lb instead of 12 ahhh help me niggerman
>>65569634It’s a classic RMR but has a taller deck, super thick top bezel, and a dog shit mounting system Enjoy eating shit
I have an expensive fuckin 9mm suppressor i bought out of FOMO last week. I'm looking into buying a threaded barrel for something other than a glock or beretta, what other guns are known as decent suppressor hosts?
>>65569587Speaking of the HTX-1, I see they make an MOS version and an RMR-A version. Would have to get the RMR version to get the most compatibility.
>missed registration (it filled up with 2 weeks to go) for the only local USPSA match this monthTime to kill myself
>>65569691Don’t they come with all 3 plates in the box? RMR, RMR alternative, and MOS?
>>65569687Any current production HK
>>65569696>hk>if you don’t use this one approved suppressor we void your warranty
>>65569698You won't need that warranty boot boy.
>>65569704
>>65569708Treat your gun right and it treats you back.
>>65569694I genuinely have no idea. I wanted to see if the 12% coupon works on it (it doesn't) and you have to select a variant.
>>65569716Treating you gun right would be to never attach a suppressor with a booster to it. Unless it’s a Glock.
Are ammo prices going up? I cant find any cheap .38 splTrump was supposed to be good for gun enthusiasts...
>>65569634Ever put it on an acog?
>>65569726Several armed conflicts in the world are raising the price of ammunition and their base components. Plus the inflation from Covid changed what the normal price is. .38 special is for fags
>>65569726TIME TO REV UP THOSE RELOADING PRESSES
>>65569726Nobody shoots 38 special anymore, it's specialty ammo.
>>65569726All prices will go up always. The best you get is a brief rest before it goes up again.
>>65569739I don't have one but I've save a lot of my brass from various calibers. Maybe I should look into it.
>>65569386It's gorgeous, I would have gladly bought it but 75B is going extinct so I had to get that one first. My next gun is probably gonna be canik or stoeger, I normally hate modern tactical guns but their designs are so over the top space age that they started looking cool, and I have empty gubment approved slots for sporting pistols
>>65569009Congratulations on your purchase anon, I'm a little jelly because I really like the 84F, and the one I was looking at sold recently. Happy to hear life stopped kicking you in the balls, at least for now.
>>65569035>>65569087This, but the 1917 version
>>65568934He was finally caught defrauding state and federal welfare
I'm getting an IWB holster for my full size USP 45 lol
>>65569819Might as well carry .45 Super at that point.
>>65569762It's rewarding on its own, forget the dollar savings you know exactly what is in that round so many companies are skimping. It's fucking rampant in shotshells.
>>65569824>>65568987What changes should i make to my stock USP 45 to be able to handle a steady diet of Super?
>>65569848Absolutely nothing
I'm not really into Infinity pistols, but this caught my eye at Cabelas. Pretty sure it sold though. Was $5499 a good price? Came with 3 mags and case. Some sort of iridescent tiger stripe camo in the finish too
>>65569726Now you learn that ammo prices will always go up, no matter who is in the white house
