Anyone need any PMAGS? I know a place you can get them for $25/each.

Complete CMMG 9mm lower, $400 http://grabagun.com/cmmg-lower-compl...w-6-pos-1.html

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Want one of these now, prices are crazy right now though. I guess people are really willing to pay high prices for rifles.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Bought up some "vintage" CAVIM 7.62x51 ammo this weekend. (2005 date of production.) Seller was an old friend, he sold it to me at more or less pre-hysteria pricing. Didn't make the buy just for the hell of it though, was actually something that's been on my shopping list for a spell now.
Maybe spectrrr can start getting me more of this stuff since the factory is in Venezuela. -(P |

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Botach just tried to charge my card (they failed, cuz the card got stolen and shut down 2 days ago, grrr).... but there's not many items left on the order... could it really be so... could they really be shipping it! lol
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
:r
But, damn your CC got stolen? That sux. Or maybe Botach is trying to screw you... |
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Yeah, banks fraud dept caught a bogus transaction being made on Saturday and locked it down. So now I'm stuck waiting a week for another. Gonna miss that card, the number had enough of a pattern to it that I had it memorized, never had to pull it out to use it :)

Re: First Firearm Thread.
:r yeh i have mine memorized too.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
came in handy for some of the "buy it quick or lose it" sales in January :r

Re: First Firearm Thread.
What are your guys thoughts on Seekins Precision and LAR Grizzly parts? Was thinking a Seekins 223 lower and a LAR OPS-4 upper receiver for a start of a build. If I could only find the parts at halfway decent prices.
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Seekins makes good stuff. That's all I got for ya though lol

Re: First Firearm Thread.
I'm looking at purchasing my first hand gun. I will mostly use it at the range and not primarily a conceal and carry. That being said, I have found three that I really like. The Glock 23, Springfield's XD, and the Sig P250. I love the way all three of these shoot. I'm leaning towards the Sig because it is a modular handgun and you can buy the conversion kit to change out the full size to the subcompact size when needed. Thought?
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
I'm a glock fanboy so nothing further need be said.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
The Glock was probably my favorite to shoot. The price point of the Sig and the functionality of it are selling me right now......:sh
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Well from what I've seen the 250 is the black sheep of the sig line among sig fans
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Really? I have seen or heard next to no poor reviews on the p250.

The good thing about Glocks is that with a barrel and sometimes mag swap you can change calliber. 40SW --> 357 sig etc. Glocks are very simple and easy to work on.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
the 357 and 40 use the same mags and follower

Re: First Firearm Thread.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
Yeh. the 357 is just a 40 case necked down to take a 9mm bullet. since the bulk of the case is the same and the part that contacts the follower is the same, they have the same follower. Much like you can shoot 300BLK in a 300BLK AR with regular 5.56 mags.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
I wish some of the other polymer handguns would come out in 10mm. Got a pair of Glock model 20s. They do the job for carry in bear/wild boar country but I seem to shoot the Springfield XD guns better. Not very much hands on with the Smith Wesson M&P's but I believe the same is true for me with those versus the Glocks.
I've owned a Colt Delta Elite but sold it after realizing I was not gonna use it for carry out in the wilds. Too dang pretty. |
Re: First Firearm Thread.
That's the same as the Sig p250. It can change out from full to compact, to sub compact. Also can change cal from 9 to 40 to 45 ACP. Won't do 10 though.

In my opinion the Sig 250 is meant to compete with the Tarus Millennium and pistols of that appeal. There is no one pistol that can adapt to all scenarios, kind of like trying to use a hammer as a screw driver, paint brush or level, lol . Generally “Modular” do it all designs only attract first time buyers. Like mentioned already my Glock’s are usually my go to gun, personally if its your first CCW handgun I would recommend you look at the G19 also right now still in love with my XD's. 45 although I am not a HUGE XD fan. |
Re: First Firearm Thread.
I'm in a similar boat as Pete, I have decided on 2 different pistols and need to pick one; both in 40 S&W and both fully ambidextrous (I'm a lefty).
First is the Walther PPQ known for their excellent ergos and possibly the best trigger of any polymer pistol. Comes with 2 mags with 12 round capacity and 3 interchangeable back straps. The other is the FNH FNS. Good trigger, external safety, night sights standard, 3 14 round mags, 2 back straps and a lower bore axis than the PPQ. The prices are almost identical (within 20 dollars). Any advice would be appreciated. |
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Nevermind, went with the PPQ 40. It was my first choice and they we selling fast!
Should have it in the next couple of weeks!!! :banger |

I collect vintage Walthers / I don't think anything they made in recent years deserves to wear the banner. The PPQ looks to much like a HiPoint :r

Re: First Firearm Thread.
So here's a question. If I don't have a bore sight system, what's the best method to sight in my AR? Start at 25yd, dial it in, then move on to 100yd?
|
Re: First Firearm Thread.
Just google 25 yard zero, it'll give you what you need to know. I think it like 1" below poa.
Edit, this isn't mine just found it on google images: http://m3.photobucket.com/albumview/...rZero.jpg.html After zeroing confirm at 100yards, |

Have a Glock 20SF and will be getting a 29SF soon. Wilson Combat or Nighthawk will be my 1911 choice. Both make some really nice looking 10mm autos. |

Kimber has some good looking 10s too. May get two 1911's soon, one in 10 and one in 45. Those Kimber Gold Match IIs are nice!
