Firearm BS thread

I have not shot the new Glock in 22 to compare to the m&p. I have had great performance out of the m&p22c over the last five years. It loves Winchester and Remington cheap stuff and If I was worth my weight I could shoot it better than I do

 

Can you get me a Franklin Armory CA7?

That’d be great. Thanks babe.

 

That's awesome. I'm very jealous. I just looked some up on GunBroker. Looks like about 1200 for a used swat model. As much as I like them, I don't think it would fit in my philosophy. Over the past year I sold my collection down from about 20 to 6 guns. Everything has to have a very specific purpose beyond my liking it, and has to be reliable and have readily available parts. Even if I like shooting the Sig marginally more, my DD M4 has exponentially more parts availability.

How is the trigger on your 556? I put a Geissle SSA-E in my DD. It has more take up than I was hoping for.

 

You definitely pay Sig prices.. but.. it's a Sig. And a discontinued, highly sought after Sig. That's kinda what I did to fund/get this dream gun. Wanted something I know I would keep and use heavily. My go-to. This fits the bill perfectly. Small enough to keep it with me in the truck and be able to jump out real quick to blast some Varmint.. but was easily smacking a steel silhouette 100yds out with the brace flipped out. Not a lot of aftermarket for it.. but.. it truly doesn't need a lot. Even then, there's enough out there to "make it your own".. or if you're able to.. do some light gunsmithing. Luckily I'm in a position and have the necessary equipment to be able to do some minor alterations. Mostly just custom stuff, or things to help make it more comfortable for me specifically. I plan to extended the charging handle and angle it slightly downward. Stuff like that.

The Factory 2 stage trigger is actually really nice. Took me a bit to get used to coming from my AR, but now.. I prefer it. I've also adjusted it some too.. now the stage 2 break is super short and I can feel it. Helped keep me on target with follow up shots.

 

Experimented doing a little bit more complex shapes with color fill. I have only done the safe, fire and geometric shapes with logos before. I think it turned out pretty good. Also it makes it easier for everyone at the range to see that I am in fact a poor.

 

Got some inert rounds to get more familiar with my new gun.

 

what did you use? I was going to try this on my Sig. just the "S" and "F" on my selector. was going to use my RC paints and brushes to get in there.

 

Not a great deal, but in stock

There is one at a shop about an hour from me in that price range, just havnt gotten the motivation to head over there...

 

Nice, I ended up getting a P365 (non xl) at our PX for my wife to avoid the Tax and transfer fees. Got about 200 rounds through is last Saturday, heading out today for her to get in some range time.

 

How does it shoot?

 

I just use model paints from the hobby store. I did the safe and fire on the lower a while ago and it has held up to use and cleaning just fine. I just wouldn't spray cleaning solution directly on there and scrub unless you want it to come off.

 

I dig it, shorter barrel is different and definitely taking us some time to get used to. But all in all the wife is diggin it, which is what really matters. Super small and compact for a 10+1. Had some trouble finding magazines with the extended finger grip, so we just ordered the coyote version.

 

Got to shoot my Grandpa's new P365 SAS. I was skeptical at first.. having to adjust to the rear sights.. but I was smackin a silhouette 100yds out with it. Actually really liked it. The slide release is still a PITA, but that can be overlooked by just grabbin the slide.

 

I considered the SAS but wasnt sure about the new sights, maybe I'll give it a second look.

 

You’re gonna like it a lot. It’s very easy to shoot accurately for its size. I rented one (along with a 365 and a Hellcat) and shot it so we’ll I had to buy one.
I’ve got 800 rounds (including 200 steel cases) through it so far without issue.

 

I put some rounds through my 300 BLK today. When I was putting it away I saw my wife's KelTec sub 2000, and had to take a photo.

 

I have an IWB Blackpoint Tactical miniwing light bearing holster for my P09 and TLR1. They make nice stuff.
