Hello all,
Looking to sell my lightly used Glock 19. I've taken this to the range maybe 2x in the handful of years that I have owned it. It has mostly been a nightstand home defense gun. Looking to pass it on to someone now. Comes with gun, box, papers, 3 mags, backstraps, and 50+ rounds of Federal HST and some other assorted hollow point ammo. Also mounted on the gun is a Streamlight TLR-1.
Asking $550 cash in Nashville for all of it. Basing my price on Gunbroker's data, haven't been keeping up with the market lately.

Does anyone have experience with LWRC's DI gun? I saw one at Royal Range for 1250, never thought I'd be able to get into a LWRC for that price. And bonus it's ambi enabled already for my lefty-ness.
I've also been considering the DDM4 V7 or Barnes BP15 but for a few hundred less a LWRC seems like a good deal.
Thoughts??

I think you meant to say you're "Gonna build you're first one". I think several in this group will agree that once you build one there will be another and another and.......
Haha that's fair.

And do you have a nice AR yet?
No and I think that's next. Gonna build one.

...they pulled me back in...
So a couple years ago I was super into Firearms, and began building a nice little collection. THEN my interests drifted to custom knives, and most of the guns went to make room for those... Now, circumstances have brought me back to where I started and I just picked this up a couple days ago... Now the question is... what to grab next...

I posted over in the accessories forum asking a question regarding this firearm, but I figured I'd post here too... Anyway, earlier this last week my wife and I went to see a movie (Black Mass, really good, I recommend), and when we walked into the theatre we both noticed that they were searching people's bags. My wife (who is the least situationally aware person ever) mentioned it, and said it was probably due to now-trend-of movie theatre shootings. Well, when we walked into the theatre my wife pointed out a dude sitting down in the front, alone, hat pulled low, just... kinda flagged her alarm, as it did mine... We stayed for the movie, and obviously nothing happened.
However, with this being a trend now, not just in theaters but anywhere really it got me thinking. I don't want to NOT go do the things we enjoy out of a feeling of fear, if we do that the terrorists (domestic or foreign) are doing what they intend to. So I've decided it's time for me to EDC a firearm, at least as much as I can. I've been buying guns for a while now, and even carried some, but call me naive or ignorant, I've never felt the need to actually have something to protect me and mine till recently... So I took a quick trip to the Nashville Armory... Looking forward to breaking her in.

I think that's kinda the point. The TLR-6 doesn't add much bulk, or even change the overall footprint of the 43 that much. But you get both a light and a laser in exchange for a few ounces of weight.
Let's consider practice and training a given, and work from there.

Let me preface this by saying, call me naive or unprepared, but I've been buying firearms for a while now, even carried them some, but I've never felt the need to have a weapon on me until very recently... Early last week my wife and I went to a movie. They've begun searching bags at the theatre and with the rash of shootings in theaters we were already a little nervous... Down front, was a dude, alone, hat pulled low, just read sketchy... Both my wife and I noticed him, if SHE noticed him, he must have been extra sketchy... She's the least situationally aware person ever.
We stayed for the movie, and obviously, everything was fine. But it got me thinking, I don't want to be afraid to go somewhere because of what terrorists (domestic or foreign) have done. They win if I do that. So, I've begun carrying my Glock 43....
Here's where I want some help, I either want to add the Streamlight TLR-6 laser/light to it, OR I want to get XS Big Dots... Anyone have any pointers or opinions? I'm specifically thinking about darker environments, I'm pretty confident with my shooting ability in bright daylight, but you can't dictate the situation.
Thanks in advance everyone!

[quote name="hipower" post="1145487" timestamp="1399126961"]Shameless plug. If you are considering a 40, I have a great Sig 226 listed in the classifieds. Check it out and pm me if have any questions.[/quote] Sent you a message.
-
I think that's my plan. May go with a .40 actually.
-
Thought about that. I don't know if I anticipate something on that large of a scale, but it's still a worthwhile thought. I'm leaning Glock's direction at this point.

Kinda felt like the standardization of the Glock platform might be a good thing for me....

Hey guys,
Long time, no post... Anyway, I am looking for a full size handgun again. I have downsized my gun collection to really only my Kahr CW9 carry piece. Now I just got a job that's a 25mi or so commute and have been wanting to put together a "Get Home kit" if you will. I figured in addition to being for home defense this is something I could take with me, lock in my lockbox when I am in work... Basically just to have with me, just in case... If that makes sense. Anyway:
Here's what I am looking for, a full-size double stack 9mm, with ambi-controls. I'm a lefty so I'd prefer not to have a righty only safety, etc...
I'm looking at a Glock 19, a Walther PPQ, or maybe an FNS9. I am LEAST familiar with the FNS, but I handled one today and they seem pretty cool. The Walther has always attracted me the most, but I can't rule out the Glock.
Do you guys have any additional feedback or suggestions?
-
Well guys, you talked me into it and I ordered this, this morning: http://www.carolinashooterssupply.com/product_p/css-rifle-3-folding-5pc.htm

I gave you the videos to do it yourself. It really is very, very easy. So easy in fact that if you bring it to my house I will show you how to do it.
You have to drill or grind 3, yes three, rivets and knock out two trigger pins. Beyond that there is nothing else you need to do. These receivers start out as REAL Ak-47 receivers so all the correct cutouts are there.
You will need to spray it with some paint, I use chalkboard paint, to cover the area under the riveted plate.
Gotcha and I do appreciate you sending those videos. I guess I didn't realize it was that simple. Thanks!
-
Yeah I want to do a conversion, but I am a little wary of drilling on my receiver... maybe I'll just shoot the gun some for a while and decide...

So, a buddy helped me out and I walked into a great, great deal.....
That's a Saiga chambered in 308, with a case, three mags (+ factory mag), and 1200 rounds of assorted ammo. Now it's time to start messing with it.... I think first things first a new fore end. Is it possible to swap out the pistol grip in these? Currently it's got the Tapco stock/grip attachment..... Anyone got another other suggestions? Optics/mounts in particular...

Had one, liked it, foolishly sold it, buying again...
Anyone know what Kahr CM9's are going for in/around Nashville? Last I remember they orbited right around $400. Anyone seen any recently?

Sweet pistol, not trying to be a jerk, but are you missing a finger or are my eyes playing tricks on me ?
Must just be the angle. I've got all my digits. -
So here's an interesting question about this gun.... The magazine's that came with it seem a little, well...shitty. I loaded one up and the follower seemed to hangup on the inside... Do the springs just need to break in some, or should I look at better mags here pretty quickly?

[quote name="Romad7" post="960760" timestamp="1367107553"]Ooh, I like that. I do believe its going on my list. Very nice!
It almost make up for the Prius;-)[/quote]
Lol, at 42mpg ill take my lumps.
This is the nicest gun I've owned to date. -
Very good choice is that the lightweight model? I used to have one of those, very sweet, but never could find a holster (I liked) made for it.
Yeah I'll see what I can find, being a lefty most holsters are custom jobs anyway.

Well guys, I appreciate all the advice.
Today I parted ways with a beloved Terzuola (don't worry I have another coming in a couple weeks) and purchased this:-
