I just traded in my sr9c towards p365 xl. I found I shot my cz p10c better than the sr9c, so it went away. It was a very reliable gun. Since it was discontinued, I sure didn't get much from the gun store for it.

FWIW, I got rid of a family of raccoons in our chimney when I was a kid by taping a mag light to the bottom of a Crosman B.B. gun barrel and aiming with the light.

I bought the SR9c since when I compared it to similar glocks, m&p's, xd's, etc available at the time, it had the best trigger and most comfortable grip of the strikers I tried. I have since discovered 1911's, so the sr9c does not get much love anymore. I wish I shot it as good as the 1911's...

I picked up the Stern Defense upper and block. I am hoping it does the trick.

Actually, maple needs a dye stain to get really dark. Maple is too dense to take pigments stains well. If the molecule size of pigment stain is the size of a skyscraper, the particle size of a dye stain is the size of a single brick. That allows it to penetrate into denser woods like maple.

When I had the target 9mm itch, I wanted a 210 but they were not being imported and the old ones were rare/too expensive. I ended up with a Dan Wesson PM9. I am happy with it and am not looking at selling it to get a 210 now. I would love to shoot both side by side some day. I feel my full...

I have a 10.5” ar pistol that I want to swap between both 5.56 and a soon to arrive 9mm upper. The current buffer is a standard carbine H buffer. Is there one buffer set up that will work well for both? I know some people use a heavier buffer for short barrel ar's. The oroignal configuration...

Does it mean that as long as the overall length full extended is over 26”, the barrel can be under 16” then and it is an “other” firearm? It is kind of like how a pistol braced AR with a shorter barrel that measures over 26” can have a forward mounted pistol grip and is now an “other” firearm...

I bought a Sig MCX a couple years ago. I still have not shot it either. Main reason is I have only been to indoor pistol ranges and don’t see the point of shooting it at 25 yards. Eventually I will join an outdoor range again, I hope.

I guess I am an oddity. I started with a striker fired Ruger sr9c and migrated to 1911s. Never cared for glocks.

For me, it is extend mag if carrying IWB and the flush one if it is in a pocket. That is what works best for me overall.

What magazine is that on the bottom picture 938?

I really like my Dan Wesson pm-9.

I read this article http://www.garrettcartridges.com/penetration.html years ago on the 45-70 vs .458 and thought it was interesting. I have no personal experience with this, so just posting it since it seems to provide good info for this topic.

.09-.10 per round. CCI stuff, federal 0711, etc. Maybe 0.08 for the federal 325 auto stuff.
