    Other than the slide length and width, my Xmacro is the same size as my P80 19. Will take pics later tonight when I get home.

    That PS90 needs a tax stamp and barrel chop ASAP! They just look so wrong in 16” rifle form!

    It’s really fun with 16” barrel. I agree though, sbr and suppressed. Really what it needs is select fire.

    After the immediate failure of the Romeo Zero "Elite" (bullshit) after 5 rounds I ordered the Holosun and a 9mm bore laser. Just across my living room the bore laser was about a foot to the right of the iron sight alignment.

    I'm probably blacklisted from Sig's warranty department. EVERY US manufactured Sig I've ever owned (aside from the P365) has gone in for warranty work because they wouldn't run through a single magazine without multiple failures. My 556R (the most expensive rifle I have ever purchased to date) went back 3 times with no luck. Using a little trickery I confirmed that they didn't even open the rifle the second time it went back even though they were supposed to replace the firing pin, firing pin spring, and the hammer spring. I've got 100 rounds through this one without an issue, so I'm counting that as a win. The dot is where it needs to be with my natural point of aim, so I may just knock the front sight off because all it is is a distraction.

    If this one goes back that will make 100% of the Sigs I've purchased since 2010 that have gone in for work. You know what hasn't had to go in for warranty work? Any of the guns I've owned from KelTec, Century Arms, PSA, Rock Island Armory, or Glock.

    Being a long gun lefty, I've tried a handful of bullpups. And yes, I know you can configure a lot to run either right or left handed, but I like to train ambidextrous. I picked up a KelTec RDB and couldn't be happier. I've heard a number of guntubers mention it has the best trigger of any bullpup and I'm inclined to agree with them. I'd rate it similar to a mil-spec AR trigger. Not a high bar, but not terrible.

    This one has one. The early guns were fixed. The later guns adjustable.

    As you can tell, that's what those classes covered. We also learned that, at bad breath distance and especially when things go to ground a gun isn't always the best tool for the job. A little belt knife like the Shivwork's Clinch Pick or Disciple or the KA-BAR TDI are great at disabling your opponent or at least creating enough distance to get a pistol into play.

    Didn't know that. I swapped the sight on my early one.

    One thing I noticed on mine is the built in rear sight of the holosun is not the same as the actual iron sight. As in it also seems off for my holosun backup iron. Also the red dot is more sensitive in showing if you are not lined up 100% straight.

    I installed a new set of sights with a thicker front sight to take up some of the light gap and it's easier to see when the sights are not perfectly inline. I'm lucky that I have a machine shop and was able to dovetail in a separate rear sight.

    The new 365x let's you keep the rear sight now.

    Not saying this is what's happening with your gun but I went through a similar experience.

    I booked my PAL (Possession Acquisition License) course today here in Canada. Which will allow me to take possession of the lever action rifle my grandpa left me.

    I have a question for all you "Gun Nuts". I have a Bushnell TRS-25 red dot on my Windham AR 15. I noticed today at the range, that the "Dot" is looking kinda dim, when turned up to #5 setting. This is the number I usually shoot with. I put a new lithium battery into it, and made no difference. To really see the red dot good, I had to turn it up to setting 8 or 9. Anyone else having a problem like this. My red dot is only about 4 years old, and has never been abused.
