    Milling Glock slide for DeltaPoint Pro

    https://dangerclosearmament.com/ These fellas did mine, and I’m thrilled with the work. Cost was $150ish total (no plate) with a turnaround time of under a month from the day I ordered until it was back on my doorstep. I also sent the RMR and suppressor height sights with the slide and they...

    Red Dot for SD Carry Pistol?

    I use an RMR, which does not have an auto on/shake awake feature. Battery a buck or two, is changed once a year and it’s good to go. Holosun has some models that are shake awake and seem to be getting good reviews, but I have no personal experience with them. As others have stated, optics...

    Light Or No Light On A Home Defense Pistol?

    Every self defense gun (as in, not plinkers or hunting guns) should have a light imo. Our local range completion had a low light course that really cemented this for me. The guys with a WML were almost universally faster and more accurate than guys trying to run a separate light. Does that...

    Best Investment of $2000

    The time to invest 2k in guns was a year ago, not now. Just like every other time this has happened, prices will return to some sorta normal eventually. And to echo others, guns are poor investments in most cases, but especially when prices are historically high.

    Who are the goofs who don't clean up their trade-ins?

    This is my belief. I don’t change my oil after every trip across town. I don’t polish and wax my mower after each use. I don’t clean my gutters when a leaf falls in them. Same thing with my guns. I don’t detail strip a pistol or yank the bcg of my rifle just because I shot 100 rounds. Add...

    ammo pricing question

    It’s not all new gun owners to be honest, it’s a lot of “the sky is falling” people who’ve been through this enough times to know better. 6 months ago 9mm was roughly $150 a case and 223/556 was $180/300 (steel vs brass) and readily available from every online ammo distributor. There’s no...

    Will you help a new gun owner or reloader that is caught short?

    If someone who doesn’t own a gun but is considering purchasing one or who has never shot a gun wants to try it out, I’ll happily take them shooting and provide the guns and a box or two of ammo. If someone is completely without ammo, it would depend. If we get to a point where ammo simply can’t...

    Inclusivity in gun culture will be the only thing that saves the 2A

    I’m not debating whether it is locked in currently, it most definitely is. I’m saying that’s a change we need to make happen, and it’s not a short term play, it’s going to take years/generations but that change has to start now. If our plan is to expect single issue voting irrespective of...

    Inclusivity in gun culture will be the only thing that saves the 2A

    I think you’re missing the point to some degree. Voting for gun rights isn’t something you can do individually, it’s a package deal with other conservative/republican stances that aren’t appealing to all. The point of this thread is we need to find ways to bridge gaps with other people and...

    Earplugs or ear muffs?

    Good call.

    Earplugs or ear muffs?

    Both, indoors or out. I’d add a third measure if I could. Hearing loss is both progressive and irreversible.

    Inclusivity in gun culture will be the only thing that saves the 2A

    Yeah it most certainly gives a clear example of the issues we’re discussing, no doubt about that.

    Inclusivity in gun culture will be the only thing that saves the 2A

    Great post, and I wholeheartedly agree. That said... These types of posts don’t exactly reflect that message.

    How far do you usually shoot your handguns?

    To stay on topic, 3-25 yards for a handgun, but probably 90% inside 15. I usually do dot torture every trip at 3-4 yards, move back to 5-7, then 10ish, then 15. Every once in a while I go out to 25, mostly when I’m shooting outdoors.

    How far do you usually shoot your handguns?

    Agreed. I shoot my AR’s from 7 yards out to 200 and everywhere in between. Heaven forbid I ever need to use that weapon up close, I want to know my hold. Up drills at 7 yards are something I do pretty much every trip to the range, indoor or outdoor.

    Anyone own only one brand?

    I’m a one brand of handgun guy now, for a number of reasons. Over the years I’ve owned a number of different guns from many manufacturers. Obviously a S&W620, CZ 85, CZ P-O1, Sig 226, G19, G17, a VBOB, Dan Wesson Guardian, Colt XSE, Colt Combat Commander, Some HK (VP9, P30, USP), 4 M&P’s...

    Local Gun Show wasn't too busy.

    I’ve always found it odd that anyone in a group of people who commit to carrying a gun around daily as a matter of protecting themselves and their loved ones can also be so opposed to wearing a cheap piece of cloth on their face to do the same thing. At least statistically you’re exponentially...

    Aftermarket Glock magazines

    Ive heard the Magpul ones are decent and ETS are hit or miss. With OEM mags being as good as they are, and as cheap as they are, I’ve never felt the need to try any other brand. If it ain’t broke...

    Anyone stocking up ?

    I have what I need, not necessarily what I want.

    Now what do I do

    I don’t ask, nor do I need to. We both get an “allowance” for our spending money every paycheck. The money is equal and what each other does with their money is their business.
