15 pages of discussion yet seems like essentially no one has actually shot one
Wow, blast from the past. My 224 Valkyrie upper works fine - its been updated though. All my PST Gen 1s have been upgraded - it now has a Vortex Strike Eagle 5-25 MRAD. Handguard updated to the...
Watched the latest episode of The Expanse. Still enjoying it but this season much more complicated as the crew is split among 4 different locations all with different subplots but connected back to...
I am retired with a generator - I hope it snows a blizzard in Atlanta inside the perimeter!
I was shooting Aimpoints for several years on Open pistols in competition before the Army began issuing optics on ARs (M16-M4). I remember when the first batch of Aimpoints showed up for my Infantry...
Did not mean to upset anyone. I have been shooting red dots on pistols since mid 1980s when I was active USPSA/IPSC and Outlaw Steel Shooter. I remember when Barnhart won with a dot and the stampede...
Tom Givens new 20 shot drill touches on a lot of opportunities to practice the basics. Buddy and I ran that drill multiple times recently - I ran it with my M&P 5 inch with SRO then with my SA 1911...
I bet someone in the crew didn't like him and reported him through some form of IG, etc. reference the AK and someone higher up took the shot. Seen it in some form plenty of time though my Army and...
I am completely retired as of Jan 2. That has thrown off my exercise plans as sleeping until 8, cooking big breakfast, surfing on computer, reloading, surfing on computer, mounting scopes, surfing on...
The Army started running into this as Optics started rolling out. At some point, Optics become the primary and Iron Sights the secondary but there is a technical and cultural transition.
If COVID is as bad as it is portrayed to be, seems like there would be more US and International pressure on CCP. China purposely or accidentally released a bio-weapon on the world and caused...
For the 6.8 SPC owners - Midway seems to be running a deal on Speer 90 grain Gold Dots. At this pricing, I may shoot 6.8 90 Gold Dots for plinking cheaper than loading 55FMJ. THere are some free...
This is why you do not leave label makers unattended for Staff Duty Officers and NCOs
Benefit of living in Atlanta area is swinging by Glock Smryna to get Glock pistol inspected. Done this multiple times and left with original slide, barrel, and frame but all other parts new. Often...
I have been shooting 1911s, Para, and STIs since 1986. I have been blessed to never have the horror stories of 1911, etc. reliability issues. Any issues I had were either bad mags or my bad reloads....
Just bad timing - I suspect there are more barrels available than ammo available. I can resize 6.5 Grendel brass short term.
I am originally from Savannah, GA and daughter lives there. Wife and I visited Savannah last week to see daughter plus I got to see my best friend who also lives in Savannah (great excuse for three...
Just got some Kingslayers in with the Red Circle Dot. Will put one on a S&W 41 that has a Weaver rail on top. Debating on using the second on AR9 or MPX.
May I make an alternate suggestion - I would buy one SRO for the G34 and stick with iron sights for CCW. Learn the "dot" on the G34 and later invest in a second dot of you wish on your CCW. You might...
I'll try to find some once first etc. 6mm ARC from someone who does not reload.
I bought a Shaw 22inch barrel. Got everything to build an upper. Now if I could find some 6mm ARC brass............
It broke in half and the mainspring housing was barely kept in the frame. We will see once replaced but I am pretty confident the Para would not function reliably as it was about to eject the...
Great news for anyone who still has a 308 :)
I ran 255 LSWCs in 45 Auto a few times in USPSA with no issues other than they were pretty slow - seemed like I was shooting a mortar lobbing them in. Went back to 185 or 200 LSWC but no issue...
Shot 1911s this weekend. I was shooting my SA 1911 TRP Operator and my buddy drug out his 1st generation ParaOrdnance P14-45 that was used in USPSA long ago. He started having jams with the Para and...
