Thanks to eveyone who responded. I've looked through a couple of the scopes and fully anticipated needing an IR illuminator. I just need the unit to be able to see a coon at close range and hold 0 on a 22lr; surely they can do that...? Lloyd Smale, express away man. I'm looking for...

I'm in the market for a Gen 1 scope for a very specific task, shooting racoons and other pests at 15-35 yards. I'm aware of the limitations of gen 1 products, but for the price and close range, I believe these should be sufficient. It will be mounted on a suppressed savage mark ii fv-sr 22lr...

You ought to try holding one of the Glock SF models. The slimmer grip makes the glock 10mm a much more attractive gun in terms of comfort. I've got a Glock 20c and a 29sf, one of which is always on me when I'm at the farm. I actually prefer the larger grip, but I've got pretty big hands. The...

Everywhere the law allows. Generally carry a Glock 20 as backup when hunting, though.

sorry, too graphic

Stuck one with an arrow at ~30 yards outside my camp last year sportin' only some crawfish print boxers... does that count?

What are you wearing these days? Picking up my SR1911 this weekend (my first 1911) and naturally can think of little else. I see there's an IWB thread below, but I generally prefer wearing on my belt. Curious about what brand/style folks prefer.

Well, it's on the way. Thanks again for all the replies. I'll add my .02 after I pipe a few rounds.

Yeah I've checked Academy in Shreveport, Monroe, and Lake Charles, and called the other local gun shops along I-49 and I-20. They've all got a Taurus and an R1, but no SR1911. Atleast not in the last several months. The guy at the gun bar at Bass Pro actually laughed at me when I asked if...

Here's the link by the way incase any of you can't resist. http://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/104507 As a disclaimer, I have no affiliation with this store. Have ordered from these guys before though and they are top notch. Called one time to see if a gun I...

Thanks for the replies. Nah, no body has one for rent. Matter of fact, no body has one with in 100 miles... at least in Louisiana. Played with one at a gun show a few months back. Really liked it, but they wanted top dollar. Just recently found one online for the best price I've seen in...

That's the feeling I'm getting. Still looking for folks with some first hand experience. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727

About to pull the trigger on one. Really interested to see if there is a good reason not to buy. I've read about the superiority of all things Colt, and I'm sure I'll get one soon. But for now, I'm really interested in the Ruger. This'll be my first 1911 purchase, so any and criticism and...

The scope is stamped VX II on the rim of the objective and the box says VX II. As far as I can tell the thing is blemish-free. One thing I did notice is the word "leupold" is printed on the side of the dials instead of the traditional leupold "L" symbol. Perhaps this was just old stock they...

Thanks for the replies. The VX II was roughly 350. the VX-3, roughtly 450 but has the Boon and Crocket reticle, which has it's appeal. Optics plant has the VX-2 version of my vxii for 479. Guess I could always get the VX-3 and just find another rifle so I can mount 'em both....

Need some advice I bought one of midway's blemished leupold scopes (VX-II 4-12x50) the other day to put on my Rem 700 .270 after I robbed it of the old Vari X III which now resides on my AR. The problem is I just got an offer for a VX-3 4.5-14 x 40 for a hell of a price; however, it's still...

GP 100 with 6" barrel was my first handgun purchase. I've probably put thousands of rounds through that beast without a hiccup. The stock grips are great. Probably the most comfortable of any revolver I own. I'd give them a try for a while before switchin' up.
