    @teamhypoxia I thought you'd enjoy the paragraph below for all its errors and being from CO and all. I will make an attempt to use Garand next time.

    The winner of the 2017 BLFC was Kat Russo of Loveland, Colorado: The elven city of Losstii faced towering sea cliffs and abutted rolling hills that in the summer were covered with blankets of flowers and in the winter were covered with blankets, because the elves wanted to keep the flowers warm and didn’t know much at all about gardening.

    X2.

    Operators gotta attach their apparatus to operate operationally.

    And I have to admit, even though a 1911 with a rail is like a hot girl with buck teeth, a 1911 with a low-profile light looks badass.

    I have been running them on my daily carry guns as well as my zombie slayer now for about 4 years. I shoot a LOT. At 50 with eyes that aren't what they used to be, I can say without a doubt that they make a huge difference for me. I have to shoot the FBI q twice a year and they have improved my scores noticeably. With that said, they do require some practice to get fast presentation. I actually had to change from a Glock (which never fit me right anyway) to an M&P in order to get the dot to show up immediately when I pointed the firearm. If you have specific questions, I would be happy to chat live, PM me. I have an FNX45 tactical with an RMR, and M&P with an RMR and was running a deltapoint on the Glock 19. At the moment, I am not using one on my BUG.

    Made with a little plywood, a couple of 2x2's and some clothespins. The gong is a railroad tie plate.

    Yes. PVC and rebar.

    3/4" PVC makes the stand/frame, and 1/2" rebar pounded in the ground holds it.

    You can make the frames any size (within reason) you like.

    By using 4' long pieces of rebar, you can pound about 1' into the ground, and have 3' above ground, to support the frame.

    I can get pictures if you are interested.

    Both of my EDC pistols have an optic.

    They make target acquisition and follow-up shots stupid easy to make.

    Looking for a hammer fired sub compact or smaller handgun with a de-cocker, not a safety. Anybody got any ideas. Only thing I've found is the CZ Rami BD and of course that's impossible to find.

    Doesn't that new Springfield XDE function that way? Although it's really just a compact, not a sub.

    Yeah, just not a huge fan of their business practices. But, they do have a de-cocker on the XDE.

    I agree, the BD Rami are rare, likely due to more desirable. On my short list when I am ready for next one.....

    Been looking for a long time for one. Of course, you can find the safety version all day because no one wants the safety.

    Revolvers have been my best choice so far because they a easy to conceal and double action. Just would like a semi auto pocket pistol of some sort. I can't always carry my compact in the summer.

    Between the wife and I we have three Bersas, and we love them all. The CC model, pictured here, can be hard to fine, but the regular "Thunder" model is only a tiny bit bigger and can found most places. Affordable to.

    You think the CC could fit in your pocket?

    some and more and more and more and
    I had a Bersa also. And it was a very well-made gun I will say, but for my size hand, I found the sharp edges of the frame digging in to my hand in various spots as I shot it.

    I have the "Combat" model. It's a little bigger than the CC model, and I pocket carry it all the time.
