America's Right Arm

Guess it is interesting? Quite a bit more weight. Quite a bit more cost. Hey, did they ever figure out how to put a good trigger on the M&P (humor).

Let us know how you like it? Does it function well at the range?

Growing out the collection I see. Best of luck

Pardon my thread kidnapping, but watched our fearless leader yesterday state that AR's are not needed by citizens because they won't stop an F-22. Apparently, ole smudge pants forgets his teachers saying: Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Worked pretty well in Vietnam. Doubt that any of the Ukranian fighters would turn in their AK's because of Joe's bedazzling claim.

Look online at section 8 of form 4473 . If all are No then he should be ok to go. Nothing however is assured with the ATF.

Will, pretty well covered it. Some try to make cheaper versions of the Glock system. A few try to sell tricked out versions of a standard Glock. The latter will be higher in cost, Look at the history of revolvers or bolt action rifles. Once someone comes out with a design that works, everyone tries to build on that engineering. Either offering fancier or cheaper products. it's life.

Wow, haven't seen the American Eagle for sale at the stores here. That's one I might have trust as well. Thanks for the heads up.

On further examination the great Golden Eagle may be on to something. upon close up inspection there seems to be the remains of the lower half of a circular piece of tape. Faint and hard to see the top of the box had no sign of tape on it wonder if it got played with at the store of course that does not explain the empty Unfired case

Great idea, but what you see in the picture is the side of the box. It opens from the end with the blue painters tape on it which was added today. The end where it opens from had no tape. Just a simple pull out tab. Hummm, come to think of it it should have had tape on it

Yeah, neither have I. That's why I posted it. Can not imagine how that happened in production.

Federal has been a go to for reliability. However this box of 22's are problematic. This is ammo purchased new 5/22 and appears to be of recent manufacture though I did not check the lot number online (wasn't cheap either). In the first 150 rounds had four bad rounds of ammo. Taurus TX22 Comp -- 100 rounds Failure to eject, could be the gun as it was the first round out of it. Failure to extract due to a clear tape attached to the cartridge case. Had to use forceps to get it out of chamber. Found another round like that with tape on it, but just threw it away. One round found in box with no bullet or primer in it. S&W Victory - 50 rounds Out of 50 rounds, had one failure to fire which went off on second try. Not unusual for 22 though so not including it in count. Never had box of ammo with tape on the rounds, or empty cases for that mater. So if you are thinking of stocking up with the prices coming down, you may want to take note of my recent experience.

Just to complicate matters, cause I'm good at that; Is your striker fired gun fully or partially cocked with a round in the chamber? 65%-98%-100% I know my 1911's are fully cocked, unless I put them in the half-cocked position. Yeah...too much time on my hands. To the OP, it doesn't really matter if you shoot the gun well. And feel safe carrying it with a round up.

Striker for carry Hammer for range Although for IDPA striker still wins. That is because the precise light trigger pull of a hammer fired gun is of small value when running and gunning Not having to deal with an external safety while drawing or holstering is an advantage — for me at least JMO, your mileage Mary vary

Dang, you're on the other side of the State from me (East TN)

You can carry safely a "modern" firearm which has no external safety (Glock, Sig, Hellcat). Good professional concealed carry training is highly recommended for ANY firearm. If an external safety floats you boat, wait for Sig to introduce that feature. They probably will. jmo

That's a great revolver. Never could quite afford one though. An old 2" S&W snubby is my favorite carry gun. Enjoy!!!

Not crapping on it, but there are a lot of good carry guns out there. There are a lot of good range or competition guns out there The original P365 is a great choice for edc. I don't understand why someone desires a gun designed which was optimized for conceal carry but was modified into a mid sized gun? There are very many great mid sized guns already out there. That's what they were designed to be. Is it just me or am I missing something? Granted, SIG knows a lot more about marketing than I do...:-)

Have multiple Stack on safes for ammo and firearms (two more not shown are for rifles and carry handguns). Most people think these are useless. Oddly, they are similar to what my old Sheriffs' Dept used for duty weapons. If you think these are easy to break into, I had to cut the door off one with a cutting disk when I lost they key. Took a long time and that cabinet is now at the recycliers Are anchored to both concrete floor and wall studs with bolts.

Have a few Lee products which seem OK. My RCBS Uniflow has thrown many a pound of powder. It seems to show no wear except the exterior finish which has come off from my banging it around the workbench. Long term, I would go with RCBS over Lee, but others may argue differently.

OWB, with a smaller firearm like a snubbie or micro compact. Carrying at 3-4 o'clock the gun gets lost amongst all my bulging fat. Have given up on IWB as it poke me too much when driving.

btw, Target Spoorts has the CCI 400 450 primers in stock at 549.00 per 5k. Not that bad of a price now a days. Have some in stock as well.

Speer Gold Dot or Sig V Crown in either 115 or 124 grain.

Wow, nice deal on the chargemaster. Now find some primers

Thought this might be of interest. For years have used my S&W 38. Spl Bodyguard as primary carry. I'm a fat dude and it fits my profile. Always ran a couple cylinders of ammo through it at the range to make sure it was gtg. Shot some BUG matches with it. Played with it at the range to optimize my da trigger pull. Was not adverse to showing people that you CAN hit a 25 yard target in the zone with a snubbie and full loads. In shorty, have shot it quite a lot. Well, it is starting to loosen up. Like a couple of Smiths that went before it, the cylinder will rock JUST A BIT. It's a sign of loosening up. Gonna miss that tight precise feel. It's not loose enough yet to cause any safety or accuracy problems. But if I continue for another 5-10 years like this....it might. Oh well, that's why I have so many cream puff reloads sitting around. Time to start using them. So, on topic my answer is....with some guns it may cause excessive wear. A snubbie is not as durable as a Glock 19.
