Nice GLOCK. I had some 33's for my G26!

Pacu, to get those last three in, unload it, then load again. Might only get one more in. Might get two more in. And use the loading tool, unless your thumb has a callus like a hoof.


So, I got funny looks at the range today. Doing reload and carbine to pistol transition drills- two rounds in the magazine, shoot it dry and either get in a fresh one or switch. I need to find another range. The cops and gaurdsmen keep coming over and asking what I was. 

I will say the ambi mag release I put into my AR was probably a waste of money. I keep forgetting about it, I've been dropping those magazines with my right thumb for so long....

[SAK Guy]

Well.....

This was different.

[raistlin65]

Well.....

This was different.

So I guess my Colt 1911 would be ready for hard use in combat???....Wait a minute. I already knew that

I reckon so!

Interesting demo!

You guys have any experience with an Arex Rex Zero 1?

it certainly holds up well, doesn't it?

It does and at half the price of the SIG.....every review of that pistol I've seen is highly favorable.

That's an interesting channel from the standpoint of testing. It always interesting to me to see that kind of stuff.

The Army picks a replacement for the M9.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

Shot a P320 last summer. Felt good in the hand, but not particularly accurate (may have had an off day or an off pistol). Need to try another one.

Expect there will now be 5 years of law suits.

  You bet!  +1 on the lawsuits!

Looks neat but I'm a dinosaur and need an external hammer. 

[Gareth]

Very interesting.

Here are mine right now. Three S&W wheel guns: a K22 Masterpiece from the 50s, a Model 19.3 snub in .357 Magnum from the 70s and a new Classic line Model 36 Chiefs Special. And one Uberti Colt 1861 Navy replica (black powder, ball and cap). Shooting them all, except not yet the 1861 Navy that I just got.

Very nice!
I'll see your K22 and M36 and raise you a K38 Masterpiece and M34.

So, get a P-250 which is essentially the same pistol as the 320 but with an external hammer.  If the P-320 gives second strike capability on a hard primer without having to rack the slide then it doesn't make much difference to me except that I have a P-250 and I don't have a P-320.  I am looking forward to seeing cheap surplus magazines and holsters in the near future though since those will be the same.

I fired a few shots with a Mosin Nagant this weekend 

But the rest was severely frustrating.....

My goal was to get my Ruger Blackhawk sighted in for self defense rather than hunting distances.......which seems to be impossible.

Secondly, I seem to have forgotten how to shoot  or I need glasses. 

My last six shots taken in anger out of fist seemed to show any intruder will still be sorry, but I'm not getting anywhere near the accuracy I know is possible.  Asked my cousin to take a few shots off the rest and he proved as much

Sounds like ammo was the problem. Your cuz must of shot the good stuff. Well that what I tell myself all the time.

Thanks for the vid bud!!!

I am thinking about a new pistol but it will probably be an HK45 or P226 (Legion)....or I will wait for a P220 Legion....or I will get another 1911 (Colt Combat or Rail or Kimber or ?) or....none of the above.   

Was have a little trouble racking the slide on my Commander so tried this and It helped a bunch. Slick stuff. Saw it being used in a Youtube vid a while back and seems to be a great product...could really tell the difference working the slide. Used it on the slide rails and std high friction areas....need to shoot it now. I like it because it stays where you put it.

Marines could follow Army and replace M9 Beretta with Sig Sauer P320

If you want a 45 and can get a chance, try the Walther PPQ 45. Shoots every bit as good as all of the reviews lauding it says it does.

I read it has an excellent trigger!  All the vids I've seen on it are really positive!

[G-Dizzle]
