If you subscribe to the Warrior Poet Society Network, Ryan Cleckner has a pretty good long range course on there you can watch. Cleckner also has a pretty good book on long range shooting.

I would also go 870 or Mossberg. Personally I like the tang safety on the Mossberg, but I know a lot of people don’t, so that’s a personal preference thing.

My dad, who is obviously older, has a few optics on pistols. I’ve tried them and like them, but never can commit to getting one myself. I find that, when I’m practicing defensive shooting at average engagement distances, I’m reasonably accurate at point shooting, and often don’t even pick up the sights at all.
I also have a beef with the dots that turn themselves off and on when they are “shaken” awake. If I’m carrying a gun on my hip I feel like it will get shaken a lot. I’m waiting for someone to come out with a self illuminating pistol sight like the Meprolight or ACOG.

Looking for a shockwave, hopefully in the Nashville area.

I prefer the G20 for barrel availability, I generally run an aftermarket barrel with better chamber support because I reload ‘em hot. I’ve split a few cases in a factory Glock barrel, but I’ve yet to split one in a Lone Wolf or Storm Lake barrel.
I just picked up a G29, so time will tell on that, but the G20 seems the best do it all gun. Even at 5’6 and 160 I can still conceal it if I need to, and it makes a great woods/hunting gun.

If its for the wife, take her to the gun store and let HER pick what she likes.
That’s how we ended up with an XD that sits in the safe.

FWIW mine is stock and just shy of 3# IIRC.
Mine is similar, also worth noting, the factory trigger is adjustable for pre-travel and over-travel. Also, with basic tools and a YouTube video the trigger can be removed and polished, making it buttery smooth.
These things are awesome guns. Mine is the only gun I will never part with (other than the sentimental ones).

Looking for a Glock 29. Have the full size 20 and am now itching for the 29 for carry purposes.

Is the Roni still available? Please PM me, I tried to send you something but it wouldn’t go through.

Looking for something small and thin. I used to have an LCP that I got rid of, wife loved the gun but I didn’t and she didn’t carry. Now she has her permit. She has an XD but thinks it’s too thick. So are my Glocks. Let me know what you’ve got I’m in the Nashville area. Looking to purchase outright, I’ve thinned out the collection to guns I like, so don’t have much to trade.

Ad closed, picked one up at Academy. For anyone else looking Madison had several available and they had longer barrels and pistol grip options too. There were also other stores in the area showing stock. After mil discount OTD price was $197.

Appreciate it! Going to check out Academy at lunch.

This is a maverick on the for sale forum under the multiple firearms for sale post
I saw that one too, but I think it’s priced way too high. I believe asking price on that one is $350 for a gun that cost $200 new

Appreciate it, I did see that one. Guess I was just looking for a regular old shotgun. I’m a little old school. Thanks though!

Hmm. I must have missed it. Mind linking it or at least telling me what kind it was?

Looking for a 12 gauge HD gun for my wife. 18-20 inch barrel, stock preferred, but may consider a pistol or birdshead grip. Won’t be one we short often, so don’t want to spend an arm and a leg. I keep missing the deals on well priced Maverick 88s and Mossberg 500s. Nashville area.

Looking for a 45-70 lever action. Not super particular, just been wanting to add one to the collection. With ammo or reloading dies would be great.
-
Glock sold.

I have a Lee 4 die .44 mag/special set. I’ve maybe loaded 50 rounds on it before I sold my .44 mag.
What kind of .45 bullets do you have? May also be interested in 9mm bullets.
Permitless carry will affect those with a permit....

I had a boss who carried everywhere, including military bases. He always said, they won’t know I have it unless I need it, and at that point I’ve got bigger worries than a gun free zone. He paid close attention to keeping it concealed, probably more than most of us.
