AZ PewPewPew Meet aka @Mike330R shooting diary

Workin', 3rd weekend in a row.

 

I did the math on my OT the other day and I got fucked by taxes so bad that I really didnt make more per hour.

Anyways, on another note, I'd be up for shooting this Holiday week/weekend if anyone wants to Freedom it up unless I decide to trek to Sedona or Payson or both.

 

Maxim 9 approved July,4th.
Merica!

 

Been a while since I got a new plinker.
S&W 629-4 Trail Boss. Some what rare.
Hope to pick up the Maxim ( when my FFL get back from wherever the hell he is

 

Got my Maxim and filled out paperwork for the free can! Hopefully a 45 can in the next 10 months to complete my collection!

 

Looks like we did the same thing with the BOGO deal, Maxim9 and a 45 can. Maxim9 was approved on July 4th of all days.
Except my FFL is 'out of town' for a month. Gets back next week.

Have you looked into new trigger springs for the Maxim? I seem to remember someone makes a kit but forget who. I know I'll want one for that trigger.

How do you like the trigger as well as the gun overall?

 

You get used to the trigger! I went this afternoon and put 100 rounds through it and thought it was ok! Cleaning this baby is entertaining too! First integral suppressed gun so a learning curve!

 

It really liked the American Eagle 147gr loads and my reloads! Need to try it out in the desert!

 

Reunited most of the family, my HK G3 clone is missing but it is on the way too.



Need to find a good spot out here, and start stretching the legs of some of these.

Also bought an Aero AR10 lower because I have problems.

 

4.11 or 5.3 pull over the 8.8 OEM.

Looks like a good start!

 

Dude! You need to actually fill that bitch up like a man! I can teach you how! Just give me your cc!

 

Need suggestions:
I have $650 worth of Cabelas cards on the way, what should I buy?
Leupold Delta Point red dot for the maxim 9 is $400
Could also get a vortex red dot for $230'ish.
Marlin 45/70 lever action is $699- always wanted to try one but probably wouldn't shoot it to much.
Kimber revolver -$900'ish.

How are those FN pistols in 9mm w/ threaded barrel?
Or maybe something used from the gun library I may find.

Hoping to combine these cards with a sale or a 10% off day like they used to have on Tuesdays.

Suggestions?

 

You could buy me another safe!!!!!
I vote for the FN9 with threaded barrel! I want one but don't need. The Maxim is a sweet shooter without optics so that would be last IMO!

 

Anybody have a good "advanced" gunsmith they recommend? Need some milling done on my Noveske lower, been meaning to get around to it for years but never hand much of a reason to either.

It's just a little bit of material that needs to be removed off the rear flaring on the magwell to make it take Gen 3 PMAGS, EMAGS and so on. Too much for just some dremel work, and it would need refinishing.

 

Yeah I haven't done it partially because I haven't shot it in forever and partially because I did just that, only used compatible mags.

In the back of my head though I keep thinking it should be able to take any mag I throw at it...

I need to strip the whole thing back to basics to be perfectly honest- when I got it I was the manager at a gun store and the bloodlust was strong, I threw every stupid meme gadget on it and bought a .300blk upper for it.

 

I have the same lower but only run Gi type mags but if its the same problem as the HK416 ( Gov full Auto Model) its an easy DIY we run HK 416s at work and I have done the fix to run Pmags its easy to do with a fine hand file and a sharpie take ur time it only takes about 15/20 minus finsh the job with some fine sandpaper

 

Yeah I could mod all my Pmags but, I have this compulsion about having my kit be able to run 100% in any imaginable scenario.

It's why my go-to glock has very few mods to it, never want to come into a situation where it needs to go "bang" and can't.

Plus it also gives me an excuse to go get it cerakoted maybe...

 

we mod the lower so its a 100% fix. the loudest sound in a gunfight is a click when theres supposed to be a BANG haha

 

it'll work.
