looks better than the beretta.

So im thinking I want something thats reasonably accurate to 500yds or so for punching paper....
Debatin between the $579.00 PSL 54c (ammo is relatively cheap and it comes with a useable scope).
or
FNAR .308 Heavy Barrel $1350 (match ammo much easier to find and probably more reliable, more accurate, but twice as much money)
Thoughts, opinions? Any other semi-auto suggestions appreciated (not really wanting a bolt gun atm)
Thanks!
Get the FNAR. It's very slick. I think you can get a light barrel for about $1000. The heavy barrel is nice, but it's not very well balanced, especially with a bipod. I would high recommend buying the light barrel and tossing the extra $$ into mags, ammo and optics.

Wow, Fast moving topic.
I had a series 1 jag xk with 4.2L I6. The winter car was a IH scout.

wow, that list is SERIOUSLY flawed.
where is the Hummer H1, Toyota FJ, Chevy Blazer, Jeep CJ5, Ford Bronco, International Scout, Land Rover, Willys, Chevy Suburban, etc.
Honda CRV, Toyota Rav4, Lexus, Subaru(not a SUV) do NOT belong on that list
I think you're list is seriously flawed as well. Blazers, Jeeps, ROvers and Burbs are not typically thought to be reliable. They seem to "die" frequently. Hummer H1s are a disaster. Scouts, FJ, CJ and Willys are not too easy to find. If you do, the are rust buckets and parts aren;t cheap.
Now here's the list of top 10 never die vehicles were manufactured within the last 15 years:
1997 Land Cruiser
2003 Land Cruiser
2004 Land Cruiser
1996 Land Cruiser
2002 Land Cruiser
2001 Land Cruiser
2000 Land Cruiser
1998 Land Cruiser
1995 Land Cruiser
1999 Land Cruiser
BTW, Here's my 2000 Land Cruiser

Does the longer sight radius really make it better than a 17? I'm just asking because I have a 19 and 26 and I've thought about getting a 17 for a range/HD/maybe occasional backwoods carry gun. Since it wouldn't really be for carry, would you recommend a 34 instead?
I cut out the middle men and went with a 26 and 34. I'm really happy with my decision. The g34 is a great range piece and the 26 is a great carry piece.

Nice pistol. I really like the change in grips. I've had a SS PT99 for atleast 15 years. I can honestly say that it's never misfired. Also, its my most accurate 5 incher. Its more accurate than my Vaquero, FM hi-power, PT1911 or g34.

Yep, FN mags are crazy. My FNAR requires $90 mags. I will say that I would like my Bersa 380cc much better if the mags were about $15. Its a favorite either way..

you need a dealer sign on or call them.

I have a Mk-II. It always becomes the range favorite whenever I pull it out. Its fun and cheap to shoot.
-
I like it a lot. It's small and very well made. I prefer stainless to polymer, so it was a no brainer to go with a seecamp or NAA. It carries so well in a desantis nemesis wallet holster.
-
I normally carry a NAA Guardian .32acp, Fenix PD20, Kershaw Leek, Surefire EWP-01 pen, Tag Heuer Link Automatic Chronograph, Blackberry Curve and a wallet.
I will say that I loved the weight of the leek, but I've not been impressed with the durability of the blade. MIne is the black teflon serrated model. I've messed up the teeth a bit through casual use. The casing is also missing a bit of metal from carry. I'm surprised since my Beretta Airlight and CRKT M-18 have been carried for much longer and display much less wear.
-
I ran through this model line a while back. I thought they were nice. I prefer the variable. The 1x seemed to be very clear, but just a bit distant compared to the naked eye.
-
yes, Knoxville is getting freezing rain. Roads are slushy now, but are supposed to freeze. LIghts have been flickering for hours, so I'm sure we'll lose power sometim this AM.
-
I think you got a fair deal. I had an empire grade SS model a long while ago. I sold it to pickup a PT1911.
-
I had one. It is very tiny, but TLR1 is much brighter and has longer battery life. I sold the X2.

Obama's gonna tax that soda. Better find a cheaper vice.

Several years ago, I think I paid $250 for .45 Llama 1911 style. I was able to get my money out of it, but it took a while.
A lot of the budget 1911 crowd look for something that has ability to swap in aftermarket 1911 parts. The llama has a few departures that make 1911 parts hit and miss. I seem to recall that the llama has an external ejector.
Also, there were a couple of recalls on the XIA and XIB models for accidental discharge issues. Finally, on the grip side, firestorm 1911 grips will often fit. I had a 1911 firestorm "firestar" that was made it spain. I was able to swap its grips to the Llama. I did a quick search on llama firestorm and found this link.
As far as shooters go, both the the firestorm and llama were very nice. IN fact, I hate that I sold them.

A 20 gauge A5 will pull a premium, especially in that condition.
-
I would seal, add a dehumidifier, and HVAC. Aside from composite materials, bamboo and cork panels work great. Also, take a look at the vinyl "scraped hardwood" finish flooring boards.
-
Mini 30s are great. Scoped accuracy is about 3moa with good ammo. Reliable factory hi-caps are $30.

I am a fan of the shop in Joelton. I took HCP course there when the permit process changed. Their instructor was top tier. I still frequent the shop. Aside from the Rabbi, there aren"t many shops that offer the deals that these guys have.

I will be looking for a deal on that one.
