  1. Still can't purchase handgun ammunition from a retailer/FFL under the age of 21 regardless of said person being legally allowed to own and carry, though.
  2. They release a 1911.
  3. I use Seal 1 SP-8. It doesn't run, I haven't noticed it get gummy. I use it for all my firearms, and it does wonders. My friend uses hoppes, and has had the bolt polished on his Mosin but it will still get stiff after 30 rds, we started using the Sp-8, it'll make it through a whole range day now without getting stiff.
  4. Sounds like they took more orders than they could handle at the time.
  5. Someone, please, buy this, before I do.
  6. I didn't realize they went modular with these now, that's incredible.
  7. As I said, with enough training, ya know, like the kinda training a SF team gets, haha. My original comment itself was meant to be a joke. Reasons why I said, can be about as fast, even then, it doesn't beat condition one. I've seen numerous videos, and there was once a nice video that I could find where someone took some footage of the then fastest Israeli team and compared it to a low level IDPA match with slow motion. Shot times were faster with novice IDPA shooters by more than half a second on average than the fastest recorded condition three shot times at the time of the video.
  8. Oh so pass it off to "user error" huh? What s shameful twist. Sig might as well start releasing videos on how to carry condition three. Don't get me wrong, with enough time and training, condition three or aka "Israeli carry" can be about as fast as a loaded chamber, and with the right technique does more to put someone in the mindset of moving out of the firing lane of an opposing target.
  9. Gas tube lengths are available in 4 different sizes, pistol, carbine, mid length, and rifle. Couple things to consider when choosing what best suits your needs 1) barrel length, 2) what round your AR is using, such as 5.56 vs .223, 5.56 puts out more gas. 3) is it canned? There's a helpful diagram available with just a short Google that helps a lot.
  10. I hand loaded my HDs, If barrel is shorter than 14", Hornady V-max for 5.56/.223 loads. I had a 7.5" setup, I now have a 20", that would deliver devastating results on gel, at 10-200 yards without over penetration, I worked up a similar load on my brother's 14.5", and my dad's 18". I eventually traded up to .300 blackout for my setup and use their sub-x projectiles as well as the V-max projectiles. Reasons for trading out setups is I also own an AR-10 and Rem 700 in .308, since I load, it made sense to trade out setups and only have to buy .308 projectiles for those setups and lock up the 5.56.
  11. Personally, if it's just a range toy, and you're not looking to add a bunch of stuff, get a plain 92. You won't be disappointed, from there you can figure out more of what you desire in the platform, and then down the line pick up one of the more "fancier" models.
