In my neverending dilemma of wanting a rifle and also not wanting a rifle caliber I wanted some feedback on an affordable, but effective, 9mm "pistol"/PDW/Carbine. This will be for plinking, and serve some role as a truck gun/HD. I was looking at the POF MP5 and Zenith MP5 offerings - theyre a bit expensive, minus the Form 1 and HK parts id slap on em. I was looking at AR9s, but have only heard bad things about their reliability. And I havent seen a rifle length one. In the best world Id get a 10.5" barrel and pin a Ares Breath muzzle brake on it. That also brings me to a segway - anyone here that can machine a muzzle brake on a lathe or whatever? Those Ares Breaths are near 180 after shipping and tax. Dont really like HiPoints - moreso because of the lack of modularity Id get out of an AR or even a MP5. Any thing I miss? Thoughts? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Const. Carry Bill brought up today
CommsNBombs replied to CommsNBombs's topic in 2A Legislation and Politics
Here is my $.02 - that, and half a baloney sandwich after a week will give you a fungal infection. Just like was touched upon in this thread, you do not need any permission to exercise your 2nd Amendent right anymore than your 1st - the caveat is obviously doing it safely and not infringing. BLM dudes raising fists and chanting? Cool BLM dudes burning a CVS down? Not cool Buying a gun and shooting USPSA? Cool Buying a gun and shooting up VT? Not cool End of the day, bad people will find a way to do bad stuff no matter what right, law, bill, EO or Ethiopian prommisary note - so toss that arguement out of the window; why should law abiding citizens be punished and not be able to exercise their rights because of the inevitable evil in the world? I understand the HCP class helps instill the basic, bear minimum safety protocols - I do not even think that is a good argument to keep it around. There are plenty people who have HCPs that are still brain dead when it comes to fundamentals. End of the day a person's willingness to learn is dependent on them, the HCP class is more of a "check the box"sort of thing. Training is a subjective idea. By that people think someone who doesn't flag someone or chamber checks is trained - to someone else a SWAT guy may be considered "well trained" As long as they arent pointing guns at random people, or breaking laws, no problem. What I am trying to say is I support the idea of ConCarry. Id rather have someone with minimal training be afforded the ability to carry concealed and protect his family and not worry about the politics behind it. I understand the state makes money on it, but I am sure of all money they make HCPs arent bringing in a huge amount. And if you want recipocrity (sp?) You can take the test and pay for it. Doubt itll make it to the floor either way. Again, just my opinion Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk -

If youre AD KY Gun and Knife Country does $15 - granted I know the management so it may be different. There are a couple of guys on the board that will help you save cash, but if you know them - I wont put them on blast I am sure one of em will reach out Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I am a Glock guy through and through and I one point I owned 10 of them. CZs and Sigs are in their own league - being hammer fired, all metal guns theyre different than Glocks and the like. I have both, Sig has 1911s, SAOs, DAOs and tout the fact that Mil/LE use them. But theyre German meaning theyre expensive. Never had a problem with my 2 - but for brand new youre talking near 1000 for a gun. CZs are way more affordable (even their higher end stuff compared to a high end Sig). They fit a bit better with me, and they dont fail. At all. Ive had my 220 and 239 FTE or stovepipe not my CZ. So being a Glock guy my favorite gun is my CZ97. Sig does offer polymer framed striker stuff too - garbage, get a Glock or M&P if thats what you desire Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Is reloading not worth it on the common pistol cartridges?
CommsNBombs replied to NeveSSL's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
You got to put in money to make money as they say. In this case the money you make is what you WOULD/COULD spend on factory BS. I have an XL650 setup for 45 and 9mm - with a casefeeder, conversion kits and dies plus 4 extra of each pickup tube was $870.77 to my door. For 9mm POS 115gr UMC target ammo is around $230-$270 after tax/shipping depending where you get it. So median market val of $250. I get 1000 primers for $30. 1# of Titegroup for $15. 1000 Plated for $78 or 1000 Coated for $69. Brass is free - I only use half a pound per 1000 so around 120/1000. If I bought in stupid bulk it would be cheaper. For me that works out - 2 hours on my XL650 moving slow as hell and plunk testing every so often I can do 1000 9mm, convert to 45 and do 500 of those. So at the end of the day I only pay half yearly ($3000-5000 savings) what I would on target ammo. My ammo outperforms anything I can get on the market. My ammo doesnt fail. It is a fun hobby and with deals/sales online I can cut the prices lower. If you try to save every penny by casting range lead and robbing ranges of their brass and going through dud boxes and pulling rounds and buying powder in mega bulk then more power to you. End of the day, you will save money, if you stockpile you wont suffer from market fluctuation and you will have damn good ammo Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk -
I really really wanted to like it. The Desert Warrior was so slick - but 3 critical failures and dealing with Kimber's holier than thou CS Dept ruined it. At least yours is doing good, its a shame I couldnt have a good one. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I had a Kimber DW I bought from some dude for a song and a dance and I realized why. The chamber was super tight - much tighter than a regular 1911, only thing it would feed was steel case - for some damn reason. Called Kimber, told them its second hand but they wanted to see it - got it back with the chamber wider in 2 months. Started keyholing on me and grouping like straight turd - looked inside the barrel the muldoons smoothbored about an inch or so of rifling some f--ckin how. I called them, told them they were retards so they sent me a new barrel for "free" ....sent me the wrong damn barrel Bastards. Called them AGAIN. Laid into them this time, sent the pistol back AGAIN (and their POS "free" barrel)... Got the POS back 3 weeks later. They managed to scrape off the finish on my slide. Whatever. Now the barrel functions and isnt tore up. Go to the shoot it...the bushing decided to go full haji on me and exploded or something, just sheared off, damn spring plug goes flying off....cant find it. Call Kimber. REALLY PISSED NOW. These dudes told me I mustve broken it when stripping it. No replacement, REFUSED to believe something as cutting edge and high speed as a Kimber could fail...even though they machined a faulty barrel and have the logistics ability of a RETARD! Replaced the stuff, and sold it off for the same song and dance price. NEVER AGAIN DAMNIT! I wont touch a Kimber anymore. There, now Im triggered. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

....I dont want to live on this planet anymore. People dont realize that those pages like Fortafy and the "like fa Jaysus an Ignur fer Sattan" are social engineering at its FINEST They scrub that thing with software - identify age groups, search for emails, all in a giant macro - if you can catch 1/1000 with a lottery or Somali prince scheme you still make bank. Practicing PERSEC and TRANSEC is one thing but some people are downright retarded. I see these pedo pages say "we are deleting old people comment with age 12-19" and all these Effin little kids are exposing themselves Geotagging and BANG now youre being sold to some damn Saudi These dudes from TN make us look bad. 338M aint gonna fix stupid. Im telling you. By 2020 theyll be dead and or broke. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Those Market WalMarts were an attempt to uproot Dollar Trees, Dollar Generals and the (remaining) RiteAids, CVS, etc. WalMart is great at being a giant big box store. Its their niche. Their eCommerce isnt too bad either - interconnected web of free deliveries to your closest storefront or affordable shipping? Hell yeah They just need to start stocking powder like the Wally Worlds in PA. Buddy shot me a pic of $18.94 Bullseye near Mechanicsburg - FML Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Dude. The effin clickbait on FB is RETARDED. My favorite is the foreigners trying their Scam 101 stories "It alway dream big mine come america please please great people I have paypal"... The best was this social engineering clickbait page from NYC - some kid photoshopped the ticket and took a selfie with himself crying with it Most of my former people werent picking that up, but the amount of people who DID? Lol. Its entertaining. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I wager their "fortune" wont last the decade. First itll be family and friends taking them to the cleaners. Then neighbors Charities and GoFundMes People writing in letters begging for money for Fido or Lucy Scammers and con artists The IRS Not to mention if they sucuumb to pure stupidity and go buy some mansion and fancy cars and get murderlated by taxes and insurance.

Who has a RCBS or Redding turret press?
CommsNBombs replied to jeff43's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
If you use the turret kind of like a manually indexing progressive then itll be a bit faster especially using a powder drop/drum and a bullet feeder tube (Lee offering). If you use it to just keep your dies set, i.e run one station at a time like a SS - wont do squat. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk -

I think it speaks to their ego and arrogance in a way. I could give a rats ass who won and I wouldnt be jumping up and down announcing it like an ass. Trust it up. And set up a seperate LLC in which to quietly send paypal gifts and checks to people I like while remaining anonymois Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

I love my Frankford Arsenal hand deprimier. Uses different size/depth collets to deprime, and you can adjust the tension. The decapping pin is also pretty thick so it wont snap - however it sucks when you get a POS perfecta or tulammo brass case with an off center flash hole and have to take it apart. Good for watching TV can decap about 500 in an hour with a good rythmn. Only thing faster would be using a universal decapping die on a progressive press with a case feeder. Especially in conjunction with a swager unit on a XL650 Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

You can start a Blind Trust and have the lawyer/CPA as the trustee collect the prize on its behalf - theyll get some info to disclose with the name of the Trust and the lawyer holding the big check. Their lawyer failed them or theyre liars. I cannot fathom the circumstances in which an estates lawyer tells someone to go on NATIONAL TV to announce it...that is all ego right there. Dumb bastards will lose their money very very soon with that ideal - especially in a small town in TN; I am sure the scum of the earth is already inbound Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
