Firearm BS thread

What's y'alls thoughts on the Sig Sauer P250 Compact .40 as a carry?

 

Not worth it.

 

To anybody with an autoloading pistol, I highly recommend the upLula loader. I got a ProMag 32 round magazine for my MP9, and had my wife load it from empty using the upLula. On the factory 17 round mags, she was having trouble about 15 rounds in and it was hurting her thumbs. On the 32 round mag, she loaded it completely without issue. It can be a good way to get the wife/girlfriend/child/husband/boyfriend into shooting by having them reload for you with this tool. I got mine at Cabelas for $35+ tax. I probably could have found it cheaper had I looked around but I had a gift card to burn. If you have a .22 pistol, make sure to get the smaller version as the full size won't fit. The full size will load single or double stacks from 9mm to .45.

Next questions for those who know better: what to get for a next gun? I have the 9mm pistol to start. Wife and I are about to move to an area called Deer Park, because wild deer go through all the time. There are also various birds around from pheasants to turkeys. Next gun will either be a shotgun or rifle but not sure which way to go. A slug could take down a deer if controlled right (haha funny joke, a rookie shooter controlling a slug). This would be my second gun. If a shortly, I am thinking a Remington 870. For a rifle, I don't know where to start because I have never gone hunting before. A 30-06 certainly has the power, but would that be overkill? Thanks for suggestions. Also because I am trying to learn all I can in a hurry, can you please tell me why you suggest what you do? Muchas gracias.

 

30-06 is an awesome round, it will take anything in North America (don't know for sure about moose and grizzly, maybe with the right bullet)

A slug gun isn't all that bad. And the upLula mag loaders are amazing, not that big of a deal when loading 1911 mags, but anything doubke stack is worth every penny, same with the lula AR mag loader

are these any good?

 

What do you want a .22 for? Ammo is either sold out quickly or overpriced for what you are getting. From shooting a couple .22 pistols, they have almost no kick to them.

Have to agree with that. By outward appearances, I would guess that barrel would top out at very most to 6", but probably be closer to 5" unless it is really big frame meant for Andre the Giant or Shaq to use.

 

Has anyone here done an m76 build? I have the parts lined up, but am wondering if i should just get a completed rifle instead.

"Built on the AR platform, TrackingPoint’s new firearms pack the same Tag Track Xact (TTX) system as the company’s earlier platforms, allowing hunters to hit targets at up 500 yards away – the “maximum range of the gun,” says John Lupher, TrackingPoint CEO. While that’s not the 1,200-yard distances made possible with larger TrackingPoint Smart Rifles, the AR platform does make it easier for hunters to move to a new position, or shoot from a standing position."

 

Anyone here shoots a kahr? Looking at a cw9 or a p9

 

I had a CW9 that wouldn't function.

 

So I've got this S&W 34-1 .22/32 kit gun, it's a pistol with a 2" barrel. I'm trimming to figure out when it was made and what is worth. It looks brand new and I don't think it's ever been shot. I've got the original box and it looks pretty old. I don't know much about thawed guns but it has one binder on the chamber arm and a different one on the bottom of the grip.

 

Played with some paracord today, I kinda like it

 

Anyone have the Remora sticky in the pants holster? My buddy gave me one to use for a while and I think I might buy one, or his haha

 

i have a remora its nice. i also have a sticky holster i actually prefer the sticky holster but the coating comes off of it which the remora wont have problems with. i use it mostly when wearing shorts and carrying a compact like a glock 29 or a M&P etc. i also have a dual mag pouch although if i could do it over id just buy two singles

 

Pictures are key man, most of the time value can't even be estimated without pictures

 

Anyone know of a place I can download some digital camo stencils? My gf's sister has a vinyl machine and can print them out which would be much easier and faster than cutting them out of painters tape

 

I'm doing pretty good on .22, my 10/22 is getting a bit boring to shoot.
1400 rounds of 22 for 79.99 by me

 

holy fuck. 100 just cost me $40
