Firearm BS thread

Ouch, They are really proud of those!

 

Interesting, very interesting...............

 

You sticking to handgun options?

I’ve got a M1 Carbine that I absolutely love. I’m one “period correct” screw behind the receiver from it being 100% correct. Still shoot it from time to time and it’s always been a really fun gun to shoot.

I’m working on saving for a bolt 308.. after that I think my next purchase will be an over under dove gun.

What about something a little more in the toy range? An MSAR E4 or STG can be had for a decent price and they are a blast to shoot. It’s not quite an AUG but for the difference in price it’s totally worth it in my opinion
Only difference between the two, the E4 takes AR mags and the STG requires the MSAR mags

 

Uncle has an old broom handle Mauser and that thing is awesome! If I had the money.. ehh I’d prolly buy something different but I’d like to think I’d get one

 

Yup they are not cheap and ammo is expensive and hard to find, at least in my area

 

Sounds like you need an FN FAL

But sticking in the handgun realm my FNX-45 is a dream to shoot for a large .45 carrying 15 rounds standard.

 

Yes! Have had a FiveSeven for many years. FN is making hotter ammo now probably due to pressure from Elite Ammunition making some really hot rounds. http://www.eliteammunition.com/

 

Got a Christmas bonus. Considering the following:

Smith & Wesson MP9 2.0 in FDE
Ruger 10/22 Takedown Magpul Backpacker
Century Arms WASR10

Three very different options.

 

Ordered a xh30 from trex for the 509T on black friday

they shipped it out on the third

USPS stopped updating the tracker on the 15th as "in transit"

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooo it's gonna be next year before I get my goddamn holster mechanism.

 

This guy nailed it. If you have your bases covered with modern stuff look to some older firearms.

 

So I am sure you all are waiting to discover what direction I have decided to go.




Sig Sauer P226 Mk25 Navy

Found it brand new for 175 off.

 

I need to find a P239 9mm, preferably a Gen2 SAS.

Considering it as a home defense/CC for the wife.

 

I was wondering if anyone has shopped around for an MP5 clone? I was looking at PTR and it looks for the price it can do the job decently well with sear capability. That said, I could spend almost double and get a beautiful TPM outfitters version. Wasnt sure if anyone had experience with either and if so, care to comment?

 

@JDAM has the PTR and seems to enjoy it. I own the Zenith MP5k clone and like it.

If you mean a full auto sear...the PTR is US made so it can be "sear ready". The Zenith's can be converted fairly easy (removal of block) or even sent to their custom shop to have it professionally fitted. But at ~$30k for the sear it wasnt something i was even remotely worried about (that and PTR wasnt out when i bought my Zenith)

 

Haven't had the PTR long but I now have 360 rounds through it and no problems(all NATO and a few Federal HST). I'm using the two mags it comes with and two HK mags. Has a Sig Romeo sight and I'm loving it! I highly recommend the SB folding brace for it.

Some people want/are waiting for PTR to make a more classic looking clone but I'm totally fine with the updates like weld on rail and mlok handguard. Just like my PTR 91 I enjoy a little more modernized version.

 

Heh my wife just lubes it, wipes it, and puts it away. Deep decarbon just makes for more wear.

 

Took the Ruger Ranch 300blk to the range today and got it sighted in. Damn that thing is a tack driver!!

 

Ruger American Ranch with a Vortex Crossfire II

 

What caliber?

Never mind saw the post above. I’m half asleep and have a cold not exactly on my A game today.
