I was hanging around the range on an uncharacteristically slow day. I’d just put 250 rounds through a rental Glock 34 because I was thinking about purchasing one. My rationale was that 9mm ammo is cheaper to shoot than my 1911’s .45ACP.
As I looked at the pistols the staff were carrying I...
An RIA 1911 is the best budget 1911 you can buy-period. Buy one and trick it out to your liking before everyone else finds out about them....
750 rounds (3 UMC multi packs+ carry ammo[185gr Golden sabers]) plus through my Tactical- bought it last week, XS Big Dots, Wolff Springs EGW "melt"...
I watched The Way of the Gun last night for the first time. Rumor has it the tech advisor was a SpecOps guy. I was terribly impressed by the gunfight at the brothel and the way that Ryan Philippe and Benicio Del toro's characters moved and communicated.
Any comments?
My employer provides CHL instruction at no cost to it's employee's. This combined with the State's veteran's discount (50%) allows me to obtain my CHL for $70.00
Our instructor claims heritage from an elite unit of an already elite branch of our armed forces.
In the course of the five...
JP. Taurus makes a fine firearm. I believe the one I handled was a production anomaly. Congrats on your purchase.
Thanks for all of your input everyone. I just came across some info about the Steyr's. The SA-1 is scheduled for release in March. I think I'm going with the M40-A1 ($409- can't...
Thanks AACD, I've looked Springfield 1911's are at a premium around here. Seems like everyone and their Grandmother wants one. I won't buy a used pistol sight unseen so I'm stuck looking for one at a gun show.
Thanks for the input. I looked at a PT1911 at a local sporting goods store. The Slide/ frame fit was horrible. I went across town and for curiosity's sake, looked at another. This one was as good as any S/A or Kimber I've seen but was $100 more expensive.
I don't know what it is about the G22 I...
I have to buy a pistol for work. My choices are a used G22 for $450 a new Steyr M40-A1 for $409 and a new Rock Island Armory Tactical 1911 for $419.
I'm familiar w/ the G22 (I've owned two and I wonder if there is a reason I don't own them any more)
I've always Liked the Steyrs but Magazines...
Of all the choices you listed, ther is no doubt that you should choose the XD. Ypu have a great company with a huge aftermarket. If you want something obscure- find a Steyr MA-1
I recently purchased a WASR at a gun show. I spent about a hundred bucks and added TAPCO furniture on it. At 25 yds it was dead on, at 50 it was still in the 9 ring, at 100 I was about an inch.5 low. At 200 I was about 8" low.
I fed absolutely everything through it and it functioned flawlessly...
I've heard that the designer of the Steyr pistols was a protege of Gaston Glock. Supposedly he left and improved upon the design. I recently shot a Steyr .40 and was impressed. It has trapezoidal slide rails, Those Trapezoidal sights, A great trigger reset and it sits really low in my hand. What...
