    Trying to price out a used Ar I put together

    Lol what's up. I figured I'd better make a forum post with the way Facebook is these days.

    Trying to price out a used Ar I put together

    I'll have to start making a list and looking up parts. Gun runs well, fairly accurate. With an 11.5" barrel shooting loads I had worked up for my rifle I was impressed but not blown away. Was never really sure what to expect from a pistol. Better than others I've shot but they didn't have the...

    Trying to price out a used Ar I put together

    All my ARs I buy and assemble. The one in question is kind of a mix of cheap and not cheap parts that I put together a couple years ago. Some of the stuff I remember, some I don't and I don't have the foggiest what my final cost was. A buddy of mine wants it but I am absolutely clueless as to...

    Sig P220 - Reloads - Magazine issues

    I wish I would have saved a few rounds to measure them. I'll do some experiments on the next batch of 45 and see if I can duplicate the results and at what oal the issue occurs.

    Sig P220 - Reloads - Magazine issues

    These were extreme 230gr plated rn. Loaded to 1.2". Lee carbide dies w/Lee factory crimp die on a Lee turret press. The reasoning behind the plunk test at the range was just to eliminate any possible diameter issues. I once had a batch of reloads that seemed to randomly not want to chamber in...

    Sig P220 - Reloads - Magazine issues

    I reload for 45. Recently picked up a new P220 in 45. I was loading a few mags at the range the other day and with my reloads and I could only get 4-5 rounds in each of my two Sig mags. I pulled the gun apart and all the rounds passed the plunk test in all my 45's. Rounds loaded fine in all...

    Sig Made in Germany vs Frame made in Germany

    Hi all, didn't realize I posted in one thread but not the other. Bought a 220 in 45 today. Ended up finding one new for the same price as the trade in guns I was looking at. Say hello! Thank you all for the info. I'm not a huge 9mm guy but I really really liked shooting those Sig's and just...

    Those of you that have dropped some coin on a custom handgun

    Hi all, I want to thank you for all your help. I actually ended up finding a new 220 for the same price as the police trade in guns. Say hello to the newest member of my collection!

    Sig Made in Germany vs Frame made in Germany

    Ouch, seems more research is in order. Both guns have internal extractors. If that's a $200 fix I'm not saving any money. This kind of info is exactly what I was looking for, thanks guys.

    Sig Made in Germany vs Frame made in Germany

    I've been looking at Sig 220's and have two options. Both used. First is in sightly better condition, $50 more. Markings are "Sig arms Exeter NH Frame made in Germany" and "Stainless" although the only stainless I can see is the takedown pin. Second is marked "Made in Germany" on the slide and...

    Those of you that have dropped some coin on a custom handgun

    Wow, this got some traction! Couple things. I have not shot a CZ97. I've never even seen one in person. I've only shot an SP01 and it was filthy at that. I shot the Sig 220 better. If I want a 97 I have a couple options. 1.) There is a guy 3 hours away selling one for $700 2.) Drop a few...

    Those of you that have dropped some coin on a custom handgun

    A week or so ago I went to an indoor range with the intent of renting a CZ SP01. They didn't end up having for rent, but rather just for sale. Ended up renting a handful of guns just because and loved the 22(6?) Legion. Didn't think too much of it as it's a thousand dollar gun and it better be...

    Those of you that have dropped some coin on a custom handgun

    Well, I've been selling a decent amount of guns lately, guns I bought for multiple reasons. Hunting + range toy or carry gun + range toy. Trying to move to guns for one specific reason. If that makes any sense
