    typically the seller is an FFL dealer OR has a dealer and you find a gun shop or place near you that has and FFL they call the people you bought it from, transfer/ship from them to the dealer you found then he transfers it to you. fees are usually involved and vary.

    Allegedly...
    I read or watched a video last year (I think) that stated pointy rifle rounds (such as .270) were tested in a tube fed in harsh conditions (recoil and drop) and no mishaps, additional testing showed that it’s almost impossible for a round to go off in the tube even with the pointiest of tips.

    I would like to see more research/testing on this though.

    Gonna post this one everywhere because I forgot who was interested and in what thread. I'm in love with the color and the machining. Good work by Primary Machine. Only flaw in the works was a mildly shaved roll pin on reinstallation that was binding the firing pin up. All it took was stripping the slide to see why the bind, and given that they didn't have a way to test for that eventuality because I sent only the field stripped slide, I'm gonna let it slide.

    Nice!

    I'm about to polish the pins and hammer tab, replace the springs, and firing pin. I just had my slide Cerakoted grey. Really a great pistol.

    Bought a new Sig Scorpion 938 as a suppressor host/carry gun last night. Got a Silencerco Hybrid in jail.

    What color 938 did you get? They're perfect carry guns.

    Anybody use Monstrum Tactical Sights?

    You can get one of their 1x prism scopes for $80. Can find zero info on them though.

    Yeah there is very limited info. I saw something about Ana adapter from a .22 Gemtech I think. Thanks for the heads up!

    That looks front heavy :)

    SiCo makes an 'XL' piston that may solve your issue. I needed one for a Beretta for the same issue. Sold that gun a while ago.

    Does anybody here have any experience with the Walther PK380? I know the PPK is blow back/recoil operated but it’s also heavier and carries a bit more kick, but I am not familiar with the PK. I want it for my wife to carry in her purse and I also might stick it in the car when traveling. The PK is priced far lower than the tried and true PPK. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I’ve also read decent things about the Berra Thunder as well and would be curious as to how it stacks up against the PK.
