NICE Larry... Looks sick... :tu

I like the rail... any future plans?

whats the capacity?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Stag used to make a lefty.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

not sure if I will use the rail. I am wanting to CC this and dont need the extra bulk or weight. Capacity is 9+1

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Rob Stag makes a lefty. They're 2yrs backordered on all ARs. :r

You could always get a regular AR and put an ambi selector and bolt release and charging handle. Would make it easier to sell to anyone should you decide to sell in the future.

RIP New York State :sad

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

It is still only a Bill..... sitting on capitol hill and i hope it falls off the steps and into a snow bank

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Doubt that buddy. It passed Senate with flying colors, You know the Gov is all for it. Just has to pass the legislature now. And NY already has a pretty restrictive ban going, as I'm sure you know.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ankle holster? Anyone have some experience with this and care to weight in?

Been bouncing the thought around for my LC9.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I had an ankle holster for my PF9 and didn't really care for it. The LC9 is just a copy of a PF9. Walk around a few days with one of those lil weight bags on one ankle and see how you like it. :D
YMMV

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I will try it while at work. That would be the often place I would use the ankle holster.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Why ankle and not IWB?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Won't be concealed.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Why not tuckable IWB? :D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

little blurry but here is the work uniform.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

you couldnt pull off having a tuckable iwb holster? you could try a pocket holster depending on ur pockets

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Pocket no. Maybe I'm not looking at the right tuckable IWB

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

So the shirt is just over it. The holster I just got closely resembles that there, the super tuck.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

basically you put your holster on. tuck your shirt into your pants but over the gun and behind the clips
Like so. Clips will still be visible but thats it.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Well then, I can do that with mine. Main reason I was after the ankle is my work doesn't allow to carry. So if I really wanted to, I think I would be more comfortable with it hidden well, where it won't affect my movement to much.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

with an ankle holster youre gonna look like ur limping until ur used to it lol

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I can hide that better. I play softball year round.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:r why not try the one u have first

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I will, around the house and when I got out. See how it does.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

for anyone using a .40 loaded with "safety ammunition" for home defense, these ballistic gel / wall test videos should be very interesting.

40S&W Glaser Blue 115gr Safety Slug penetrating Interior Wall

40S&W Federal 135gr EFMJ Versus Interior Wall (SHOT 2)

40S&W Speer 180gr Short Barrel Gold Dot versus Interior Wall

40S&W Speer 180gr Short Barrel Gold Dot, Gelatin + Interior Wall + Gelatin

Moral of the story - doesn't matter what ammo you're shooting, shot placement still matters, A LOT.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

In 40 I'd use what we issue, 180gr Winchester ranger t

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I carry Hornady Critical Defense in my .40. My fiance carries Hornady Critical Defense in her .380. I love the stuff.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'm sure all the stuff hits hard and works good... the point is, it ALL goes through walls, even the fancy safety slug stuff. So shot placement still matters.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

In my Glock 23, I carry the Federal HST rounds. :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Holy crap sig has a double stack .45!!! The 227. Feals like a 226 e3, not bulky at all

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yay my 10 D&H usgi mags shipped today!!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Wish I could have afforded one of those as well.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Don't forget the added cost of $200 for the ATF tax stamp and waiting 6-9 months for the paperwork to be processed. :sad

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'm suddenly getting the urge to move to Texas :dance:

That right there is gorgeous, in more than one way :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Does anyone have any first hand experience with carrying the G27 or springfield xdc inside the waste? I already have an LCP for the back pocket but i have been wanting something for IWB option. I have made a chart of all the different .40s I'm looking at and the Glock 27 and xd are very close in size. The big size difference between the 27, xd and the shield is that the shield is .23" thinner. However the xd and 27 both hold 3 more rounds. Thoughts or opinions on any of the guns above?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

What's ur height and weight? Both those are thick

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

What do you recommend for IWB carry for a 6'5" 330lbs guy... Just curious... Didn't know H&W factored into CCW carry but it makes sense... what factors does this change?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Bigger u r the easier to carry a bigger gun.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

that makes sense... however even for my size i still find it difficult to hide my full size Ruger P-89...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Is the 1/4" between shield and other two really that noticeable? I havnt had a chance to hold any of them yet as all my locals are out.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I carry my g26 with a Galco king tuk IWB holster to be honest cant really even tell the dif when carry my g19 other then a little more weight with the 5 extra rounds.

While you are looking at the shield I would look harder at the XDS .45 they are like almost identical size, I would rather have x6 .45 over x7 .40

Here is pic of my g26 compared to y xds

Happy MLK's birthday to me

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice.

Just saw they are now introducing the XDs in 9mm. That will be a hot seller.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Maybe u need a better holster?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'm eagerly awaiting it.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

To ME generally width of the pistol effects how easy it is to conceal than any other factor.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I agree on this.. Like them slim.
