Firearm BS thread

That’s our government, hard at work!

 

That's a call history not a WiFi network

 

Don't know how I missed that but I'm going to go with too many beers

 

Interested in the new Remington 870 DM. Anyone have one yet? I'm curious if the bolt locks open on an empty magazine. Not a deal breaker either way, just wanted to know.

 

Don't have one so I don't know ,
But can't see how they would have engineered that (meaning the 870 bolt doesn't lend well to any hold open function , take a look at a pic of one ), and you wouldn't want it .. would interfere when you run the gun dry and need to drop shells straight into chamber to keep shooting .
I'll place my bets on no it does not .

In the odd chance it does I wouldn't touch it

 

The bolt isn't the same as the regular 870. I could see it being easy to engineer an interlock between the bottom of the bolt and the follower of the magazine. Again, not saying I want that feature, just curious if it was designed that way. I agree that needing the ability to combat load a round into an empty ejection port is important.

 

What's different about the bolt ? I'd be curious to see .
I'd also be surprised that Remington build it any different than the regular 870s .
Folks like black aces tactical (where Remington likely lifted this idea ) have been converting 870s and 500s like this for some time using factory bolts




Edit : after some searching I read that the bolt indeed is specific to the DM gun

 

I think there are two new ones on the market this year. Remington and Mossberg. I've only handled the Mossy. I call it the "Ram Rebel" of shottys because it's so ridiculously overwrought.

 

Yes you should

 

Also- This is probably the best advice I ever received as a young person. Kept me out of a HEAP of trouble as a teen-young adult.

 

Hi all, I am looking for a owb holster and or paddle for a Glock 19. It needs to accommodate the gun with X300U Surefire light. Even better if it could take the surefire or the Streamlight TLR-1 HL. Non leather. Thanks in advance.


posted this in the Glock thread, but thought I would also drop it here.

 

There's a Glock thread?



G34 here......

 

Safari land with the ALS system, I believe the 7395 will work for you.

 

Wow - you guys are that quick with holster recommendations? How about an IWB tuckable for a Ruger LC9s?

 

I love my Black Arch holster for my Sig P238.

Thanks - that's a great lead.

 

Don't think I ever posted my HD shotgun. Call her "meat and greet" hahaha!

Mossberg 930 security with extended mag tube, flashlight mount, QD mount, and modified to eat any shells I feed to her vs really hot stuff.

 

Don't know if anyone has seen this yet but if anyone is looking to get a suppressor SilencerCo
is having a sweet promotion going on now. I think it just started today. I have been thinking
of getting their Maxim 9 integrally suppressed pistol for some time now. Seems it is on sale too
and if you spend more than 700 - 800 you can get a free suppressor.

https://silencerco.com/summer-kickoff-promotion/

The maxim 9 is on sale at a site outside SilencerCo for quite a bit less than on
their website so if you have an LGS that will price match, good deal

Correct me if I am wrong.......

 

Has anyone had issues with .22lr constant misfeeds? I bought a G36 from Walther (can't afford the SL8 conversions...) and had a tonne of rounds not entering the barrel fully and a good portion of them wouldn't pull out. Brand new gun: broken down and cleaned/oiled before shooting, used Remington Thunderbolt. Had some Federal as well, same problems but not a frequent. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thunderbolt is some of the dirtiest ammo I’ve used. I try and stick to Federal or CCI.
