    Took a concealed carry class to get the “enhanced” permit, the shooting test was stupid easy, 36 rounds total, 3 different distances with 12 rounds each, keep all shots inside the silhouette.
    I shot with my P320 “frankengun” that has the tungsten frame because I wanted to shoot it since it’s been so long.

    This is unacceptable, I guess I'll cancel my optics planet order and order direct from safariland.

    That's gotta be a joke. Has to be.

    Quick question for you guys, I've got a few guns I want to let loose, trying to figure out where best to list them. Given that I'm in DFW Texas gun trader would seem to be the best course but it seems dead to the world, low activity.

    I mean you could pay to list them armslist, put on consignment at a local shop, or sell them to like Buds or something

    Depending on what they are, I'd likely put them on gunbroker right now

    You’ll get good activity on TGT. Just put though must have valid LTC and/or must fill out Bill of Sale to help mitigate the scammers. Also doesn’t hurt to say must meet in person with cash because you’ll get the scammers sending “certified checks” with you shipping h first.

    I usually get hits same day if not within the first hour or two. Plus you can sell for a premium and they’ll pay it because the panic buyers are on there.

    Good to hear. Between a breakup and politics I'm something of a panic seller so I'm hopeful to get them moved. Don't need more than a couple lol.

    I'll probably post them there first. I always prefer GAFS/TW and other communities as places to sell, less skullduggery.

    My daughter did some shooting this weekend. Her first taste of handguns (they missed their mark but she liked shooting) the rifle was right on the money though and she should be ready for the deer youth hunt this coming weekend ... And exit holes look better even with .22 shorts (thats all I could find a few months ago) thats my mom's taurus 8 shot 22 mag revolver.

    Tip I learned from a guy on reddit. Cut a 1 inch hole in the top of the pumpkin and fill it with water, then replace the plug if you like.

    It's messy if you're too close lol

    Haha yeah I have blown a few up with some .357 hollow points. She sank every shot in that sucker and that's plenty good for hitting the kill zone on a deer for me. Got an ar15 set up she shot a few times last year but the biggest thing she killed was a possum. Its just so frickin hot right now I wish it would cool off a few degrees by friday

    Would everyone agree this is 3/4 and not 5/8ths as listed on the box?

    Looks like 19mm which is roughly 3/4”.

    First box is thread, third box is Major OD.

    Awesome. Makes sense.

    I got to thinking about it and 5/8ths just didn't make sense on a 50 cal barrel so I decided to bust out the trusty calipers and lo and behold.

    The 5/8-24 makes the barrel profile really thin (About .0625) on 50 cal but some manufacturers do it anyway, I don’t understand why.

    Looking at the photo I would bet it’s 3/4-? thread and there are quite a few 3/4 thread muzzle devices for .50 cal.
