Not a new member, but returning after several years away from the shooting scene. I just picked up a gun I've always wanted (CZ-75DB) and can't wait to get to the range. I do some .22 pistol and rifle plinking as well. Going to have to satisfy the shooting urge scanning these forums and...
I would definitely encourage you to create a shooting set-up, but would vote for air-pistol over firearm. I had a Baikal IZH-46M for a while and shot it in my basement. I made a pellet trap out of a frame of 2x4s and plumbers putty. I think the Daisy metal-box style traps are less than $30...
Is it shorter or lighter by design than other guns in SA mode? I'm not comparing it to DA or SAO triggers.
I suppose the heavier-weight metal frames of 1911s also help the shooter capitalize on the trigger, reducing felt recoil and target re-acquisition time.
Recently I've come across several references to the particularly crisp break of a 1911 trigger, such as in TheTruthAboutGuns' review of the Kimber Super Carry Pro HD, in which the author eloquently writes:
Is there some inherent design advantage to the trigger mechanism on 1911s that makes...
I've fired a few, but had the same thought - it's so close to 9mm in size and recoil, that why not use 9mm? So, no, can't say that I see a purpose for it.
I agree with your response to his attitude and the situation. I would have done the same.
One thought - perhaps he perceived the transfer you proposed to run afoul of ATF regs/inter-state transfers or the like; hence, he was saying "I run an upstanding business here; how dare you conduct...
Thanks for that bit of info, wlewisiii. It hadn't even occurred to me to check this, as a friend of mine was told by Ruger that his jamming problems were caused by off-brand ammo and Ruger's tight tolerances. This was a large part of my hesitation to use it in the first place. .
Good...
Hi all. I'd like to mount a scope on a much-beloved Remington 550-1 semi-auto .22 in order to take it squirrel hunting this fall. The dovetail grooves on the receiver are quite shallow, and even having found the correct mounting rings, the scope won't sit still. I get it on and sighted in...
