Pretty, now for my _itch. Manufactures just seem to throw on any old red dot. That Burris has to tall of a body, imo I stick with the shorter profile RDs so they are closer to bore axis. The tall ones make my presentation feel unnatural Someone buy them a Holosun Kx2 series. Heck, even a shield

Sold! Thanks Scott Really nice S&W Victory .22 as shown $325 cash. Original owner, was purchased 12/20 from Buds Gun Shop. Don't really count rounds on 22's but guessing about 800-900 Runs great and comes with an extra factory magazine and all original box stuffers ftf in Sevierville or nearby. Must present at legally able to own a firearm in the State of TN. Cash only, no trades (just got hit with VET bill) Leave personal message and will respond with my phone number. If interested I also have the Tandem Cross red dot adapter plate SEPARATELY for an extra $35 Thanks for looking

So it right the first time. If partial to the 1911 platform have one fitted. There are also higher capacity 2011’s out there

On top of an adapter plate it makes for a rather high sight over bore axis. It seems like a rather simplistic approach jmo

Thanks, I was wondering if it is a friction based system (no moving mechanical lock).* Apparently not so. However, it would be nice to see a drawing of how this system functions, Thanks for link is was helpful. *The mechanical delayed blowback principle on which it (Thompson Sub Machinegun) operated was made possible by the Blish Block system wsit: Blish not block. Siri hates me

Of the couple vids I saw, neither explained the mechanics of barrel lock up. Curious

Have had a few guns which were sold because my needs changed. Target handguns change as I progress in a particular discipline and a different gun would do me better. Defensive handguns also change because newer high cap yet smaller options become available (or sights options change) I have sold guns which just didn't fit me right or shoot well for me (seemed good in store but not when shooting).

Indeed it is. Still much more expensive than 9mm, which in my old mind, makes no sense, It is a worthwhile gun/caliber though, Have lots of fun!

Would prefer the advantages of a high capacity nine. However—the Max 9 did not meet my expectations.

Am so jealous. Love those grips

I love my LCP ii. Have a iwb kydex holster and a couple of Sticky holsters for it. You did a great job on that leather pocket holster You are very talented with crafting leather You hit it. I too am a sucker for reviewers enthusiasm for new guns (variations). Have had a few disappointments by blindly trusting what the reviews said Am of the belief now that if a carry system works for me to stay with it. Thus I save enough money to practice more. No small thing with the price of 380 ammo.

For competition most load their own ammo. Hence it is usually not as hot as a factory round. So I’m that case the buffer is less useful There is both reduced recoil and pressure with “target” loads Have never liked buggers when used on 1911’s Guns I had needed a bit of tweaking to work reliably with the installed buffer

Should try them out then. The factory ones I have used actually had a very slight inward taper towards the base. While it made seating the bullet in case easy, it also necessitated using a tighter crimp than usual. just fyi. Have fun with it

Same fun here, well one of them. Appreciate you wanting the best load. Have you ever made hardcast hbwc? I did cast bullets years ago, but the hollow base seemed to difficult. The factory hbwc were all fairly soft lead. That made sense as the idea is for the hollow base to expand and seal against the rifling during firing. At least for the normal loading.

Actually there are some 38+p loads in jpg which test out quite well. It is an old but check out Lucky Gunner ammo tests Two problems with hard cast are excessive penetration and availability in factory loading There are a couple made for defense. However usually when you see a factory lead 38 it is a mild load for general use or dedicated target shooting I must also say that while having loaded many semi-was cutter bullets, they were never done with the intention of self defense. For me a 38+p jhp or go directly to 347 jhp btw, did you ever try shooting a reversed hollow base wadcutter into gel. Try it sometime. Wimpy penetration.

Fantastic Howz the gun working for you?

Hoping "Bubba" takes a real liking to him!

Damn, this is horrible. Right before Christmas a family loses a loved one to a criminal. My prayers to the family!

Welcome and Merry Christmas. Grew up in Cali and moved away from it twice. This time to TN and I LOVE IT. Been here about four and a half years. First two things to learn are: a) Don't honk at the person in front of you the second the light turns green b) Breathe, you are free now!

Oh with suppressor height sights I find the sight axis to be unnaturally high. Told you I had more opinions

One of the reasons I don’t carry the Vortex on a edc is the size of the rear plate. Have to install suppressor height sights. The American Glow Haven looks nice but suffers from the same form factor The Holosun kx2 sights are much shorter in height jmo. I have a lot of opinions. Feel free to ask

Hi’ya neighbor. Am just 20 mins up the road from you. No experience with Canik but a fair amount with red dots If you are new to handguns, just get one with the option to mount a red dot later (slide cut). Problem I have with most red dots that come on pistols is that they are cheap ones. Holosun is my fave for carry. Either 507kx2 or 407kx2. Have had both, still have the 407 (6 moa dot works best for me) My Sig p320 came with their Romeo 1 pro which is good. It took three to get one that works 100% though. Vortex Venom is nice but too big and dumb for a carry gun. Dumb as does not have auto on/off. Love the clear window and dot though Great at the range Have tried Crimson Trace and AmeriGlow. Both too cheap to consider for carry...IMO! Have looked at and shot a few others, happiest with Sig Romeo 1 and Holosun. Vortex needs badly to be updated with more features.

CAP or Child Access Protection makes it a crime to allow a child to get ahold of your firearm. Those laws exist is most states because some parent did not do their job. The type of firearm you own is inconsequential. ^as always, jmo
