shot there a handful of times, always a decent experience. It is pricey as others have stated, but nothing outside of the usual brick and mortar gun store/range prices.

I'll take em if you're willing to throw em in a $5 flat rate box and ship em?

For me it would be a pistol I always wanted but couldn't have.
Good enough reason for me!

Here's something to think about : Glock is releasing the 25 and 28 next month. They have not been available to citizens here in the US since they came out in the 90's. How about trying a 380 that we know will work and not have "growing pains" and "bugs" like the newer 380's out there ? The 25 and 28 have been functioning fine for over 25 years and have all the bugs worked outta them. yes the 380 cartridge is small and weaker but it would be neat to have one and see how Glock made them into a blow-back type design.
These are 19 and 26 size guns but with a weaker cartridge that is more expensive to shoot? Perhaps I am missing something but curious what the value of these would be outside of a lower recoil?

I would go either 17 or 34.

I have the P365 xmacro and really like it. I to would have preferred a full length barrel minus the comp, but as TGODavid said, it works well. I have the Holosun 407k on mine.
For carry ability, I did go with the Wilson XL grip, 12rnd mags with Magguts +2 extensions. Carries very well this way and I have the xmacro grip and 17 round mags for when I go open carry or don't mind the grip printing a little.
I do wish they would make an XL or standard grip module with a picatinny rail like the xmacro. I really like my Olight PL-mini 2 with this setup. I added a Tactical Development rail to the XL grip, but finding a holster is near impossible.
As far as shooting, I shoot it as well as my G19's if not better and they all have trigger enhancements. I seem to pick up the 407k easier on the P365 than on the G19's with 507c's . Despite having a smaller window.
Mckinatec holsters have a Mini-2 with Tac Dev rail as an option.

Also you talking case of 200 or case of 1000?

Fed HST for 9mm and Cor-Bon for .380

Unless you are a M&P person with a bunch of mags around I would think one of the other Glock mag options would be a better option. Not to mention if you are going 16" you could get a lot more potential out of a rifle caliber.

another vote for the TX22 Comp. The gun world seems to be all on the same page that Taurus is a bit of a gamble in terms of quality, however everyone seems to be aligned that there is one exception to that rule and it is the TX-22. Put a Holosun 507 and my rugged oculus on it and it is a blast to rip through mags.

I think I waited around 8 months to get mine. Will agree with others it is definitely a nice spot.

welcome, also please tell me you shoot sporting clays with the SPAS

going to second the Bergara B14 HMR. might be a bit overkill for 400 yds and in shooting but a solid shooter for sure.

looks like an auto version of their mule line of fixed blades.

To me those are tools with different purposes.
Urban v. rural, human v. animal attack, ability to maneuver to cover, and ability to run away are relevant factors.
If I can't maneuver easily and use cover (say I'm injured to begin with, or caring for a small child) or if I think multiple assailants are likely, I want the ability to fire rapidly and reload quickly.
In a rural area where the most likely threat is an animal, I'd rather have the .44.
Not going to lie I think either scenario I would rather have the capacity and reload speed of a 9MM semi auto. Especially if we are talking about TN wildlife, you get into the mountains or out west I would switch to a glock 10MM but same concept.

aimpoint, vortex, and eotech all make solid magnifiers. The holosun 3x is good as well for a more budget friendly version. Each of those come with solid mounts, if your PRO is on a riser might want to look at the unity options for the higher magnifier.

Just got into pressure canning this year, have done chicken and beef stew as well as a handful of other veggies. It's a fun skill to have and a good way to put away some food for later use. Did a few batches of candied jalapenos as well and they have been mighty tasty.

have one of these and with a can on it I smile with every shot. Super fun piece and the youth stock works OK for an adult for some cheap plinking.

How do these suppress?
-
My suggestion would be to avoid a "block set". Get yourself a really good quality chef knife, paring knife, and bread knife. After that get yourself a quality set of sharpening stones or a system to keep them sharp. This will cover 95% of what you need and avoid spending money on knives you aren't going to use. I picked up a tactile chef's knife maybe 2 years ago and it has been a champion, also really like the Spyderco kitchen knives.
No input on the steak knives.

Are their reticles useful for shooting out to distance though?
the ACSS has some pretty good built in BDC in the reticle. Have one on a 5.56 gun and their .22 LR version and have been pretty happy with both.
For reference for a general purpose setup I still prefer a dot + magnifier

that 17L is a looker

Need New Carry Flashlight - Suggestions appreciated

I'm going with David on this one. I had been carrying the streamlight microstream USB 24/7 for years and just dealt with the fact that they clip sucked and I would lose a few each year, also that the mode would be a crapshoot when I hit the tailcap. I have been carrying the cloud chicro since they released them a few few months ago, much better clip and better mode interface. Also utilize cloud on all my rifles and they take a beating right next to the flash hider and keep on trucking.
