Firearm BS thread

I can confirm that it not only punches but comes with an uppercut and a few jabs.....

 

Come on it can’t be that bad. My buddies Buffalo Arms derringer we’ve shot with .38 special and .357 mag. It stings a little, just because it’s solid steel basically, but you just gotta be a man

 

That derringer is 6oz heavier than the LCR, or in other terms, 50% heavier. I could see the LCR being a mule of a gun.

 

Up to 6 more oz. not sure what the weight differences is but it’s showing between 13.5-17.1 assuming that’s empty. Fully loaded they would weigh about the same the LCR possibly more. You’re going to get a lot less shock through a polymer frame than you will solid steel. Plus with a revolver I would assume your losing more gas out of the side of revolver than you would in the derringer. I’ll have to see if I can get my hands on one but I’ll gaurentee the derringer stings a lot more than the LCR ever would

 

Well building a .308 AR. Got a nice CMMG hand-guard for free but it’s to short just over an inch. So my initial though was to put on a gas block with a rail and a fold down front sight like a MK12 that would cover the gas tube from damage. Anyone have experience/or can measure the tube on a similar rifle it’s hard to tell from photos if mine would end up being comically exposed. Hesitant to buy anew hand guard as that will run $200.

 

Ouch!

 

Lol.... the LCR is a small beast and digs right into the heel of my palm my 640 SW pro is more pleasurable to shoot

 

the LCR is ridiculously light.

 

And that’s why I shoot 38 plus P’s I still like the gun and it’s awesome to carry do to the light weight but damn it’s a hand full

 

Shot a .454 casull last weekend. That thing kicks like a mule!

 

From last night

XDM 9mm - Still trying to improve my shooting. Pissed about the two shots in the 8 area since I knew it as soon as I shot both of them.

 

Embarrassing

 

Knowing you pulled (or yanked) a shot is good - you are aware of your sight picture as the trigger breaks. You know how to fix that problem (as verified by your other shots.) Don't be mad about them, just learn from them.

All part of the process.

 

lol ^_^

Thanks! Appreciate the words.

 

Any suggestions for a high quality punch set?

 

what are you going to be doing?

 

AR builds / mods. Handgun maintenance / mods.

 

I use a Stanley punch set. I got mine at HomeDepot around $10. Mine was blue but still the same...

I got a Winchester punch set. Has brass and steel punches. Also think there is 2 plastic punches in the set too. Nice little kit for what it is.
