  1. Agreed. If the optic hasn't been through his gauntlet, I will barely consider it.
  2. Another pre-SHOT leak. This time it's Primary Arms new HTX-1 enclosed emitter optic. https://www.primaryarms.com/htx-1 This one looks REALLY interesting to me as it uses a modular chassis system that, unlike conventional optics mounting plates, adds nothing to the overall height of the optic over the slide. In fact, if you watch the video that Primary Arms did for the announcement you will see that the optic co-witnesses with standard height Glock sights on a Glock MOS pistol. The chassis system also has a chassis plate that is compatible with the RMR-2 type mount that uses posts for the screw mounts. Zev slides and the Zev OZ9 are two slides that immediately come to mind as using this style mount which has hitherto made it challenging to find optics that were completely compatible if they deviated from the RMR footprint in the slightest. More info here...
  3. In case you haven't already seen it, Glock and Aimpoint have collaborated to deliver a new variant of several Glock models this year, each featuring a slide cut with a new Aimpoint optics mounting footprint designed to work with Aimpoint's new COA pistol optic. Before you totally dismiss it as the answer to a problem that no one was asking, it really is worth looking at. Not something I'd rush to replace ANY of my existing Glocks with, but (a.) it designed as a package primarily meant for organizations looking to move to optics-equipped handguns, and (b.) it might be worth considering later in the year (or next) if you are in the market for a new gun and optic.

  4. Happy New Year!
  5. I am honestly shocked that CZ decided to produce this. Not many manufacturers are cranking out .45ACP double-stack guns these days.
  6. Ask @TNUSMC503 to send you a private message. What you posted was skirting the line between what's allowed and what isn't when you aren't a Benefactor member.
  7. An incredible humanitarian and an utterly shi##y President. We can thank him for 90% of the problems that we have in the Middle East and 100% of the problems that we have with Iran. Everything else nice said about his presidency is an attempt to whitewash history. I grew up in the 70's. I remember how bad it was.
  8. Just received the month's shipment from Black Rifle and went with four more bags of Blackbeard's Delight. It is one of our favorites as well, but I do switch it up occasionally. I have two bags of that left from the last shipment. Right now I'm sipping on some Railsplitter from Honest Coffee Roasters. I had a cup while wandering around The Factory in Franklin and decided to bring a bag of beans home. It's good but definitely a lighter version of a dark roast.
  9. This is what I settled on. Good ballistic performance, relatively easy to find.
  10. I still have a P2000 in .40SW and it's a great little gun.
  11. Congratulations!!!
  12. Had to change mine at least once more before Christmas. The scene from The Muppet Christmas Carol where Beaker almost seems to be giving Scrooge the bird.
  13. Fixed your title so people could find it easier. There was a typo.
  14. These have sold. Thanks again, TGO!
  15. I had one of these several years ago and it was an absolutely fantastic shooter. Whoever snaps this up won't regret it.
  16. DUDE!!!! You look GREAT!!! That has to feel wonderful on so many different levels.

  18. Someone wanted him caught. They maybe even paid him to be caught.
  19. The news outlets are claiming that a person of interest has been arrested after being spotted at a McDonald's restaurant in Pennsylvania. The plot thickens! ===Copy and Paste=== A source with knowledge of the investigation into the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson told Fox News that a person fitting the suspect's description has been taken into custody at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pa. The person has a similar gun to the one used in the shooting last Wednesday, the source added. Police tell Fox News that a person at the McDonald's recognized the individual from the wanted posters of the suspect and then alerted law enforcement. When police arrived, they spotted the person and found a weapon -- believed to be the one used in the murder -- in his pocket, along with a fake ID, according to police. “The eyebrows match," another police source told Fox News regarding the appearance of the individual. The man was sitting and working on a laptop in the Altoona McDonald’s when he was spotted, the source continued, revealing that the suspect in Thompson's murder was also spotted doing the same thing at a McDonald's location in New York City.
  20. I used to do that with 45ACP and 10mm casings for the purpose of reloading my own ammo.
  21. Got my Sicario Santa going on and put TGO's Christmas lights up.
  22. The video seems to show a Glock or similar running a suppressor minus a Nielsen device, which would cause the failure to cycle properly. I would pose the idea that maybe the shooter planned it exactly as it happened, opting to run a cheap burner/disposable setup with the minimum needed to do the task at hand. Glock with threaded barrel and an inexpensive suppressor minus the Nielsen device. It would also explain why he didn't seem ruffled by the failure to cycle. He may have practiced it and knew full well that the gun wasn't going to run smoothly and accepted that to keep things simple.
  23. Welcome! Thanks for jumping in and supporting the site.
