Second Firearm Thread... - Page 33

Ashcan Bill · 02-07-2020, 06:16 PM

Over the last few years I've gotten rid of everything I don't shoot or had an emotional attachment to. Stuff I'd accumulated over the last forty years but had lost interest in. Or things I'd acquired because they were a deal. Or guns I wasn't sure why I'd picked up in the first place.

And since it freed up some cash, I also picked up a couple I'd had my eye on. So when all was said and done the downsized collection was where I wanted it, with one exception.

I scratched that last itch last week and picked up a S&W 627 V-Comp. Pretty sure I'm done now. Probably.

Sweet S&W, Bill.

Brian D. · 03-04-2020, 03:09 PM

By the way, my Sig P365 is about as accurate as a full sized 9mm handgun.

Nice Bill!

Finally decided to get a home defense handgun and went with a Sig P238 and CZ 75D Compact for greater mag capacity

A little aroma therapy over the weekend

Looks like ill have to wait a few months before I can pick up the carbine I had my eye on, Panic buyers have wiped the local shelfs clean and my go to sites are out of stock...

I went to pick up some primers and a pound of powder yesterday and people were walking out with boxes of stuff.

Im just hoping the form fours aren't held up from a shutdown....

Hippi3Slay3r · 03-23-2020, 03:52 PM

I lucked out! I found a Sig MPX carbine on consignment at a local shop with an Eotech xps2 with 5 30rd mags and 2 10 rounders for $1754. And it was never fired

icehog3 · 03-23-2020, 06:24 PM

Sweet rifle, Kyle!

Steve · 04-24-2020, 01:33 PM

New ammo showed up today to go along with Big Gurl's new barrel. May have to go out somewhere this weekend and socially distance something...

220 Gr. solid lead hard cores. Hard hitting and deep penetration for hogs, etc.

Hippi3Slay3r · 06-01-2020, 07:08 PM

MPX project coming together, Carbon fiber hand guard and a new 4.5 barrel working on a Timney Trigger upgrade at the moment and I'm thinking this one might be my first form one SBR.

RevSmoke · 06-01-2020, 08:54 PM

Nice Kyle, very nice.
Bring it along next Sunday night. I got a spot we can shoot it if you are interested.

Hippi3Slay3r · 06-10-2020, 05:19 PM

Leasing with an option to buy

this might be the most accurate pdw in 9mm that I've ever fired, I was ringing 12in plates at 100 yards all afternoon

equetefue · 06-11-2020, 10:30 AM

Haven’t been here for some time, so a few of my latest acquisitions.

Steve · 06-11-2020, 11:24 AM

Nice Edwin!

bonjing · 06-19-2020, 08:29 AM

Might be saying goodbye to a few of these today

Steve · 06-22-2020, 08:34 AM

Had a great Father's Day at the range with Boo yesterday.

Started off bustin' some clays

Then when it go hot, moved to the back and slung some lead 200 yards with the hunting rifles.

While back on the rifle line, met a long range shooter that was working up new loads for his next match. He let Boo shoot a couple of his precision long range rifles in 6mmBR

3 shots at 200 yards

Then we came back and fired up the new smoker and feasted and lounged around in the pool...perfect!
