Will give her a call on Monday. Appreciate it guys.

Anyone gone through the process of reinstating their TN HCP? I finished diversion in November 2018 and looking for get my permit back. My attorney spoke with the prosecutor and they stated it was best to take the class again and through the application process. I did some research to see that TN has a reinstatement fee for the permit of $25.00 in the statute. Just looking for some insight from you guys. Thanks. -s

None of mine will, all 8 HKs I've had.

Get something else, novelty gun, novelty round. Get something in a real service caliber, you can find ammo to train at least (and it's cheaper). Hint, 9mm. FN 5.7, an expert's take. FN 5.7 x 28 mm - M4Carbine.net Forums

Gen2 to Gen3 differences Finger grooves/lightrail. That's it. Longer barrel, slide, sight radius in the G35. It's all good. Get a GEN4 Glock in .40. Dual captive recoil spring. Adjustable backstraps, AND you can shoot it with a light attached without it malfunctioning. Haha.

+1, softest shooting polymer handgun on the market. Makes 9mm feel like shooting a .22lr pistol.

If you can find .45 GAP for cheap. I would say go for it. Otherwise, .45 ACP is already hard enough to find and mist places online, gouge you for it. Honestly, I'd just get a G21 and be done with it. Glocks are great guns, a 9mm Glock is the benchmark for a combat pistol, all the other calibers, not so much.

It's the indian, not the arrow. I'd go what I can shoot accurately. I either carry my P30 or P2000sk in 9mm(both with LEM), depending on the situation. I have .45's but I don't think they are necessary for their frame size or limited ammo capacity. Modern JHPs work very well and I wouldn't feel outgunned with any of the service calibers (9mm, .40, .45). I have some qualms about having the XD as a carry gun. All 9mm Glocks and all M&Ps are gtg btw. PM me on why the XD is not an ideal carry piece, as not to derail this thread.

I wouldn't pay more than 400 bucks.

I'd get 9mm. One less caliber to stock up on. Pistol calibers don't mean crap. The inherent snappier recoil in .40 isn't going to help sight recovery when shooting competitions or in a life or death situation. With modern JHPs, most pistols calibers are pretty moot. Honestly, from a training standpoint, I'd tell you to get another Glock 19. Pistols poke holes, rifles eff stuff up. That .045 of an inch in diameter isn't going to do anything. Shot placement is what counts. It might be a range toy, but one day you or someone you love might have to rely their life on it. Also, your wife/girlfriend would probably have a better time shooting 9mm. YMMV.

I don't know if I could recommend a 1911 that is smaller than 5" for carry as reliability goes way down due to barrel length. I'd carry a 5" 1911 if you need something thinner.

I carry the biggest gun that I can conceal. P2000sk or recently an HK45.

S&W M&P 9c is the obvious choice. Get APEX upgrades like the Striker Block and Sear and it's probably the best striker fired trigger i've felt. Glocks are good guns, but dated.

Let's hope so. Seems like S&W putting out a updated Sigma, haha. http://pistol-training.com/archives/2956

I'd store it in my pants or somewhere I get to it fast. If you are looking at mags, I'd take a good look at Tripp Research mags.

I love your sarcasm, haha.

Nothing, seems the American-made ones are just as well made(some say even a bit better finished) than the German ones.

I voted Dan Wesson Valor, but I'd vote HK45 if it was up there. Ergos on the HK45 are top notch. Superb quality and more reliable than any 1911.

The other two big names that make 6.8SPC piston uppers are LWRC and POF. CMMG makes good quality kit, a friend of mine has a CMMG 16" carbine upper, only thing is you can't shoot cheap wolf through it, otherwise it voids their warranty. Shouldn't be a problem for you I don't think there is any commercially available steel-cased ammo.

If this rifle is for when spit hits the fan, I'd get a Colt or an LMT/BCM/Noveske before getting a RRA. If I couldn't get Colt/LMT, I'd look at Bushmaster/Stag/M&P before a RRA. I only state this because FWIW RRA likes to "dremel" their feedramps instead of machining them, non-staked gas key, non-shot-peened bolts, straight FSB pins (you want tapered). A bunch of stuff that isn't "mil-spec." I recommend you to build your own AR. You can get a LMT upper from Wes of MSTN or he can build you a custom one from the ground up. He's located in Collierville, so pretty close by. btw S&W M&Ps are rebranded Stags, so you are basically getting a Stag. Well, let me know if you want me to elaborate on anything.

Yea, I haven't heard anything about one a new 556 can either, I'm looking for one. They are pretty backed up with govt. contracts. My AAC .45 Ti-Rant isn't gonna be at my dealer till July. That's how far behind they are.

I use 124gr+p GD in my P2000SK, and 147gr HST in my other 9mm's. Pick what works, as long as you can put it where it counts is all that matters. Looks like that 147gr GD is a great choice.

I would definitely go the .22 AR conversion kit. Probably the cheapest route. I recommend Ciener conversion kit. I never shot a SR-22 if that is what you are looking for. Looks like a good looking gun. the Sig, S&W and the Colt are already AR clones. Eh if you have an AR, I say go for a conversion kit.

Here's the process in a cliff notes form. 1. Buy AR Lower, or use existing. 2. Get a Form 1, from here. 3. Fill it out. 4. Take it to your local Sheriff's Office, for the Sheriff to sign. 5. While there, get (2 sets) fingerprinted on FBI Form FD-258 Fingerprint Card. 6. Mail off to ATF(address on form) and fingerprint cards with $200 dollar check/MO. 7. Sit and wait, it will be the longest wait in your life, MAYBE.

I voted Glock 26. Ugly but it works. Best value for your money. Biggest aftermarket potential. You can conceal anything if you put effort into it. I walk around during summer with my P2000SK in Comp-Tac CTAC in a fitted polo and shorts. No one knows the better. G26 is similar size so I wouldn't be too worried about trouble concealing it. I like how he's thinking. A little enticement with a picture, haha. You can find P2000SK's used in good condition for ~600 if you look hard enough, about the same as the Glock new.
