Yes that's what I had heard also. Mine is definitely a billet Gen 2 and has the star stamped on the left side.

No regrets yet but I probably have less than 300 rounds through it to-date. I keep reading horror stories online about the PSA trunions cracking and failing on their AKs but I haven't seen and evidence of that happening on mine yet.

Thanks! I was probably more nervous about posting that than I have been in a long while. It was like posting a picture of my kids and hoping that no one calls them ugly, but realizing that it's entirely a possibility that they will.

A draft copy of Episode 00 - The Prelude has been uploaded. This episode is only ~10 minutes long and it's just me. In it, I lay out out my vision for what I want the Shooters Nation Podcast to become and ask for a couple of things from you in return. On the next episode, I'll be joined by some friends - folks you probably recognize. Maybe some folks you've even heard of yet. Let me know what you think!

Or both. That's what I plan to do. I like to diversify.

That's a very smart thing to do. I wish more people would follow your lead. The best I can offer is what my own experiences with a product are or have been, and I really like the M2.0 pistols. A lot. So much that I don't even carry a Glock 19 these days and instead go for my M2.0 9mm Compact. It is very accurate and the grip just feels great to me. The trigger is good enough that I don't even find myself thinking about the trigger when I shoot it. To me, that's really when I know that I have a gun that I can use well: When I no longer think about the trigger. But like I said, it's really a subjective thing. It's so subject that I almost don't even want to talk about trigger "feel" when people ask about any gun unless we're going to talk about the quantifiable things like amount of take-up, pull weight and reset length. I hope it doesn't sound like I am annoyed, because I'm really not. I've just come to the point where I have had to admit that its no easier to describe all of the things that culminate in trigger "feel" than it is to describe to a blind person what a sunset looks like.

The feel of the trigger in the M2.0 is superior to the 1.0 in my experience. I still own a few 1.0's so it is easy for me to access either of them for a side by side comparison, and my impression still holds. But, if you want a Glock-like trigger - stick to your Glock. The M2.0 trigger is excellent but it's still somewhat different. Or, at the very least, try several of them before you buy one. Trigger "feel" is a purely subjective thing, and I really wouldn't want you to buy one because I or anyone else said it was improved, only for you to regret it and end up with more buyer's remorse. The funny thing to me is that my Gen 4 Glock 19 has more grit and twang in the trigger than the M2.0 and consequently feels worse. But again it's subjective, and I am looking for a different feel from the trigger than you might be.

Neither of my M2.0 feel like what you described for a bad trigger. But neither of them feel like a Glock either. If you want that, you want a Glock.

What constitutes a "good" trigger for you?

I mean I really don't know what else to say other than I've stopped listening to regular radio on my commute to and from work and sometimes even AT work, and just listen to podcasts now. It's pretty awesome not having to listen to a bunch of crap I don't care anything about.

Yep.

Thanks! I am going to lose my mind if I don't record a podcast this week. We've got so much to talk about right now. I agree with you on bad-sounding podcasts. I can control about 50% of that from the recording and processing side, but there's the other 50% that relies entirely on the connection between me and the other panelists and guests, and what they do to control noise and get good sound on their side. If and when we do some podcasts "in person" with some folks, I will be able to control it even better.

Huh. Try again. I edited the post to be sure it has the current link.

Just posted a second draft and updated the previous post.

Here's a sneak peak at the intro for the Shooters Nation podcast. Let me know what you think! Remember, we're going for a national audience here which is why we're doing it under the Shooters Nation name. I may do a periodic podcast under the TGO name just for you all, but podcasts really have to be done "at scale" in order to be worth the time and effort. Just posted a 2nd Draft...

Excellent post.

I don't understand this post.

This process has been a lot slower than I had hoped and that is entirely my fault. I have been covered up with other things, which is exactly the reason why we needed some new folks on the TGO Staff to help us keep momentum and keep things friendly and enjoyable. So without any further adieu, please welcome to the moderating team... @Chucktshoes @Grand Torino @CZ9MM @TripleGGG There may likely be more added soon but these gentlemen were gracious enough to volunteer and are now set up as moderators. I have more volunteers to sort through and hope to get that taken care of in the days ahead, so if you had tossed your hat in the ring don't give up yet. I really appreciate all of the interest that has been shown.

No better reason to uncork that bottle, for sure! Cheers!

This seems like a wise policy whether your team is armed or not. The person is already on your radar because they are acting oddly. So long as they are odd but at a safe distance, you have time to allow uniformed police to handle the situation. Until they are acting oddly within close enough proximity to cause your congregation harm, they aren't your problem. Yet. Call it in, let the police handle it. Remain vigilant until they do, to make sure they don't become a more present problem.

I don't have a timeline for that right now.

Did you post this before you saw my other post about the store being open?

Have you contacted them to verify or ask why? That's news to me, but I doubt I have any say in what their policies are.Confirmed, this is on their web site: Confirmed on their web site: That's a bummer but hopefully you can work around that by giving them another address to use.

The TGO Logo Apparel Store is open for business as of today 2/9/2018. We are thrilled to finally be able to offer a convenient way to order quality apparel with our unmistakable red white and blue logo. All orders are fulfilled by Queensboro, a very reputable and well-known company based here in the USA that provides excellent quality embroidered goods. As a note, if you had an order in with them over the last week or two before we spotted a problem with the logo that I uploaded to them, rest assured that your order will be fulfilled by them soon with the corrected logo. SO HOW CAN YOU ORDER? Mouse-over the "Store" option on the top menu and click the link for TGO Apparel Store. Or use this link to go there directly.

I don't think that is a grip safety. It may not fire without it depressed, but I suspect the primary role has something to do with cocking the gun as was the case on the HK P7.
