  1. Can't make it, I made plans I knew nothing about.
  2. Wish I could've been a witness. Watching from a safe distance, waiting patiently, morbidly counting down 3...2...1... Bingo, it's show time. I'm sorry, but that is physical comedy or Darwinism, at its best.
  3. Welcome to the forum, great place, lots of experience to draw from and everyone has an opinion, even if it's wrong.
  4. Send me your SSN, with name and DOB and I'll call his $100 and raise $100 Did I read correctly, "the FFL will show at your house..." Strange and potentially dangerous, but convenient.
  5. Interesting soft-sell, subliminal plant to hook me into participating. Nice job, because I am now I'm thinking about it.
  6. These were $575+ less than 45 days ago How low can we go???!!!
  7. I haven't shot a P09 but it has the Omega trigger system. Based on personal experience with the 75B Omega, my assumption would be after a few hundred rounds, it will be awesome in SA. And you can spend more money to make it even better...
  8. I was going to suggest the Kimber Micro 9 based on experience with my .380 micro The above post indicates the wonky QA Kimber provides. I got a great one, so based on one gun, I can personally endorse Kimber. Will add their CS is top notch, needed a new safety plunger and spring, got it in 3 days, no charge. Mags seem affordable, I bought 3, under $25 at the time, received in 4 days. Weight as compared to the Kahr (mine is an MK9) is like a shootable feather. Good luck with your search!
  9. On the way to brand-name sub $400 ARs Wish I needed a pistol and didn't just buy a Sport II... Lol
  10. If my plan to de-escalate a situation is to flash, draw or use my gun, I might not ought to be carrying a gun. If I'm filling up my car at 3am, I may want to reconsider my overall lifestyle...Am I doing dumb things at dumb times in dumb places with dumb people?
  11. I wonder if the TH400 transmission is the same transmission GM installed in my 1970 Cadillac (and other big body V8s of the time)
  12. Thanks J.R.! Just passed along, he lives in Alabama when titling and registering is less advanced than TN. Also a great resource if anyone here is considering it in lieu of an occasional-use beat up 4x4 for hauling stuff and driving to the shooting place, or other outdoor activities.
  13. Was watching some stuff on the cold war, I like how the space race and new age of exploration was simply a cover for missile launch and delivery development. If we can safely (with 60s tech) get man out and back, how much harder for an atomic warhead...
  14. What charging handle did you opt for? The one that came on my Sport ain't sporty.
  15. I want the original Bond gun and be good enough to hit the BG in the eyeball. Until then, I'll keep practicing and carrying 9mm. They're all still just pistol rounds. I will opine that some pistol calibers are more suited for LE; car glass / body panels and other barriers. For self defense / home defense 9mm SHOULD get the job done. Aim small, miss small my friends

    My buddy wants to buy one through auction. They are for off-road use only Anyone know how to get an on road title? He knows running lights, turn signals, horn, wipers, rearview Not sure what to do after he retro fits it
  17. My Sport II has a 16.5" × 1:9 twist Any recommendations for home defense and zombie control no more than 100 yards out?
  18. Mitch at the rental counter? Sorry for the eff bombs
  19. No, when I sold you that ammo, I had placed my first M1C into collectible status
  20. After a final session sighting it in (@25 yards) I'm now ready to learn how to shoot it properly. I got it as a sporterized NPM with a 3/44 Underwood barrel. The ordnance stamp on the barrel and stock show a trip to the armory, at least once. I'm curious why it has a Type 1 barrel band. With that late a barrel I would assume a bayonet lug. The original hanguard, though varnished, is stamped RMC, so I have a small piece of Rockola. With now over 300 successful round fired on the rebuild (and about the same before ironing out all the kinks) I'm pretty confident with it mechanically. I rebuilt the bolt, replaced the piston as well as the recoil and hammer springs. Left the trigger group alone. I may upgrade to a M2 mag catch Found parts and compared prices starting with Fulton Armory and Numrich. The big reveal is what did it cost? A few dollars here and there, I never really kept up... Gun $400 (actually less, it was a bundle deal) Modified-by-me-with-hacksaw optic mount $15 Burris FF 3 free (gift) Choate folding stock $100 Beautifully made aluminum front railed handguard, $130. Not displayed, but for display purposes only. It gets ridiculously hot after 50 rounds fired. Vented sheet metal front handguard $15 Mags and pouch $90 Bolt tool and piston wrench $50 Spare bolt parts and springs $30 1 / 2 point sling $30 Covert carry, Prince tennis racket case $40 I just did the math too. Love hours spent, priceless
  21. Open your account menu There will by a selection for attachments Easy to delete from here
  22. I am super close to sending my 75B Omega to Cajun Gun Works. Recent side by side shooting and carry as compared to my P01 SDP, I shoot the stock Omega better and don't gain that much by downsizing to the SDP. Before I spend all those pennies and go back to my original EDC does anyone have 1st or 2nd experience with CGW? Thanks for any and all feedback. Jesus loves you
  23. I CC, aiwb, high noon upper cut or N82 Tactical. CZ 75B or SDP For deeper aiwb concealment, MK9 in a high noon hidden ally. 5.11 casual or Goodrich and Gould are the two leather gun belts I use, both 1-1/2" width For deepest concealment, MK9 or Kimber Micro .380 in a pocket holster.

  25. Sales and prices on firearms drop, ammo to follow. Now I'm getting excited. I don't think my 401k has any firearm / ammo companies represented, but I suspect some thin margins as they begin to scale back production. Wonder how these trends will impact the local gun show.
