its all good. guy who put it together is gonna open the hole up a lil

Re: First Firearms II
 

Or get the Taurus counter part PT 99 or PT 92 just as reliable only difference is where the safety is and about 2/3 the cost of the Baretta.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Bah. No likey.
I looked at prices, and for all the more I'd save, I'd much rather get what I know I'd like. Actually it's the M9A1 I want.
Mainly because it'll go on my leg and I can triple wield.
Then I'll just need to get a couple of those James Bond guns you flick out of your sleeves and I'll be set. :tu

Re: First Firearms II
 

A couple of years ago that's what my son wanted and I tried to convince him to get a 1911 in 45 caliber. He got the M9 and loves it and I gotta say it is the sweetest shooting gun we have. Sweet.

Re: First Firearms II
 

i want the m9a3 when they release it

Re: First Firearms II
 

I understand that the contract for the m9a3 got shot down.
Will they still build the gun for regular folk?

Re: First Firearms II
 

from what i understand yes

ETA: http://info.beretta.com/m9a3

Re: First Firearms II
 

Thanks, Justin.
I signed up. I sure hope she comes in black. :tu

Re: First Firearms II
 

Got a chance for a 1911 at what seems like a decent price. It's a build based on an Essex frame. Anyone here have personal experience with an Essex build?

Re: First Firearms II
 

If not, there is always cerakote. I like the color though.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Is everyone in your area freaking out about the M855 ban too? People around here(Omaha) are buying up all the AR15 ammo they can get their hands on. I was at Cabelas today and people were clearing the shelves of anything that could be put into an AR. 223, 556, steel case, tracer rounds, anything they could get their hands on. The gun guy I spoke to said that they had 223 in 300 round packs go on sale yesterday and that every Cabelas in the country sold out in less than 8 hours.

Re: First Firearms II
 

not to worried my self. I have a 420 round ammo can of lake city M855 I might let go when the time is rite. I'm just happy I have a sks to play with and 7.62 ammo is cheap. Now Barns 300wm tsx and GP 7.5 Swiss are what I'm trying to find for a decent price...

Re: First Firearms II
 

Just picked up some M856 tracer rounds, anybody got anything fun to do with them?

Re: First Firearms II
 

Does anyone watch youtube gun channels? Who is your favorite? I really like watching hickok45 for gun reviews. I also like DemolitionRanch because he usually blows stuff up.

Re: First Firearms II
 

If I had another section of rail I could mount my anodized billet tactical back scratcher. Perhaps I should just start an A2 build for more real estate..

Re: First Firearms II
 

That is one badass gun. Needs a satellite dish, wifi, and an lcd screen.
And blue lights. Blue lights make ANYTHING more badass.

Re: First Firearms II
 

You mean there's a gun in there somewhere????

:lr

Re: First Firearms II
 

I just got an email from midwayUSA about some SS109 ammo. Just in case you're looking.

HERE

Re: First Firearms II
 

Picked up a rail extension for my FN. Need to order some 1.5 high rings so I can get the optics mounted. Fun little rifle to shoot.

Nice, wish I could afford an FN.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Nice

Re: First Firearms II
 

100rds was put on that target. Most must be in that big chest hole

Re: First Firearms II
 

You definitely cleaned him out. ;)

Re: First Firearms II
 

You do realize that you have to shoot Zombies in the head, right? Justin is not on my team :r

Re: First Firearms II
 

i know bro. the other targets were gay so i chose this one and shot like it was a person. fyi i shot his jaw off so he isnt biting.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Re: First Firearms II
 

Ammo is gonna calm back down after a while, but you might as well stock up anyways. 'They' are going to try the ban again...As for me I have at least 1000 rds. for every AR I own, now it's time to go 308..:)

Re: First Firearms II
 

I seem to always wait to buy ammo at the wrong times. I am in need of .223

Re: First Firearms II
 

The cabellas here had .223 on sale last week.

Re: First Firearms II
 

My Wally World has a can of ZQI 556 720rds thats been sitting in the bottom of the cabinet for over a year now. I don't own a 223/556 but I'm amazed that can has survived through the recent stir..

Re: First Firearms II
 

Glock Single Stack 9mm is rumored to be introduced Friday. Any takers? I know I am in for one.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Picked this up today so I can introduce my niece to firearms and shooting.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Very nice! Lots of fun times ahead there. I make my kids use the full wooden stock so they will appreciate it a little more when they get a nice kevlar or modular stock.

Wife just gave me permission to start my build on a blackout 300. Lots of interesting options for me to explore now!:noon

Re: First Firearms II
 

Eh i was looking for cheap and this one is the one that i found for cheap haha. $90

Re: First Firearms II
 

That made me smile, Michael.
I can remember my first turkey shoot, I was 7 or 8.
They gave me a .410. Not a problem. Then they gave me the 20 gauge. Not a problem.
I was listening careful to all the numbers and paying attention to the ammo, thought it was odd the .410 felt like the 20 gauge and was getting pretty cocky.
And sloppy.
So the old man handed me the 12 gauge which promptly jacked me in the shoulder, rattled my teeth and sat me on my ass.
Fixed the cocky and sloppy IMMEDIATELY. :lr :lr

Re: First Firearms II
 

Happy Birthday to me. Picked up a new SKB 12 guage today.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Sweet!

Scott I was that same cocky kid at that age Weighed a whole 130 lbs and the 12 ga almost knocked me on my but too. Gave me a whole new respect for firearms.

Re: First Firearms II
 

So my car drove me to the LGS and when I left, I had this

Re: First Firearms II
 

I wish my car would do that!

Re: First Firearms II
 

Oooooooo..."Tactical"
3.5 lb. single stage seems more of a target trigger than a tactical assault trigger to me. Maybe sharpshooting is the tactic.
I'd like to get something like that for my Colt 20" HBAR. I think it has large pins. I know the receiver pins are different.

Re: First Firearms II
 

typically target guns use a 2 stage trigger. they make them for large pins too

Re: First Firearms II
 

Not so much the single stage but the 3.5 lbs seems a little light to me. A little easy to set off. I have a Rem 700 7mm with a trigger like that and you just take up a little slack then think about the next bit a little too much and it shoots. It's easy too get used to and I like it much better than the squishy triggers on my ARs. I've never used it for hunting, I like my old 30-06 better for that. The 7mm is great for shooting stuff at the quarry at around 300 yds.

Re: First Firearms II
 

Its been my experience once you are used to that lighter pull it really does become more of a thought process to shoot and is easier to be more accurate.

Re: First Firearms II
 

its not excessively light. its just right to me.

Re: First Firearms II
 

As you can see by my post count I'm more of a reader , but I'd figured I'd contribute..Reorganizing the safe so I set aside the .223/5.56's to show you guys. From Left to Right:

DDMK18
IWI Tavor w/aimpoint PRO and vortex magnifier
SWMP15 Magpul Edition with 4X32 Acog, and Leupold Deltapoint on the offset, can is a M42000

Up top is a colt lower with a 10.3" LH upper, and a DD RIS II rail (yes I know I'm retarded, but shooting a RH rifle suppressed sucks as a LH'er )
