NE Firearm BS

I have.
A friend is a retired state game warden and now a game warden type for a large water co. near me.

 

My experiment on one-handed pistol firing, has taken another angle.
This exercise focused on the S&W 340 PD. The question: do I have greater accuracy firing the revolver with the oversized wood grips or the stock, smaller, rubber grips?


Interesting results. The larger grips had better results when firing two hands. BUT, the one-handed results were much better with the smaller, stock grips. Not what I expected !

 

Few of mine..

 

@7mMike
Which 2011 is that?
And details on the bolts?

I'm hunting for a new chassis for my old rem700, and sometimes I fee l like starting from scratch....lol

 

Staccato is the 2011,worked up to the max.
Bolt guns are accuracy international. If you don’t like spending lots of money on guns then don’t google ai rifle prices.. lol

 

Ai does make a chassis for a rem700 but yet again I think there kinda pricey.

 

Few more toys

 

Is that a Boyt scabbard? I have a Boyt double shotgun scabbard that looks a lot like it.

and speaking of Henry rifles and M1A's and other precision guns, these occupy my safe along with a plethora of S&W magnum revolvers and 1911's:

Henry Big Boy, in .45 Colt

M1A Loaded

AR15 6.5 Grendel

 

I like the Henry.

 

My initial guess was Staccato, but, the grip nd trigger cutouts didn't match what I've seen, so, I wasn't sure. But, a full work up, I wouldn't recognize anyway...lol

Familiarity with AI is only the mags. Don't think I've seen one of their rifles in person.

I've been eyeballing a KRG stock for the rem, just not sure how much money I want to put into it. Old .308 with a huge varmint barrel.

I'm not shy with my firearm spending, my favorite range workhorse is my M1A Scout. But, I have other hobbies that soak up my income, bikes definitely take the most money.

The rest of that hardware is freaking just as beautiful.

 

Now a days you can buy a nice action for about the same money it used to coast to true up a 700 and some other goodies. Then get a nice barrel and a chassis of your likings.

 

I have no real complaints with it. Just the stock. Lot of soft tissue damage(and bone crumbling) in right elbow. Pistol grip is the way for me now.
I'd love to get the barrel threaded and a decent brake, but, can't find anyone around here. Not a priority right now.
Personally, I'd love to build something up.
But, I'm thinking .308 bolt, 16" barrel, accept my M1A mags, etc.
I know there is off the shelf stuff that fits my bill, but, you got me thinking......

 

Sent you a pm.

 

The rifle case is Cabela's brand.

 

I have a few of the Cabelas extreme hard cases. Happy with them. Was debating on some 2 rifle soft cases, to make range days a touch easier... but....

Question for y'all....

Am I the only one hesitant to post pics?

I mean, I've always kept this topic quiet... but...

 

No

 

Nope

 

Looking for a practical, comfortable IWB holster ?
Barsony holsters do the trick. Made in Oregon.

 

Here’s my S&W Bodyguard in a Barsony IWB holster. Super easy carry.
Here’s the same piece in a DeSantis pocket carry holster. Good stuff.

The .380 Bodyguard shoots a little squirrelly. Talon Grip stickers really help.

 

Colder weather + thicker outer garments = bigger carry pistol.
Ran the S&W Compact at the range this morning. Good shooter.
