Forgot about that...thanks for the reminder. Will have to check that out.

Was at our local shop last week and they had someone trade in one of these sets on something newer. When I saw them I had to have them. Got the set of four put in their layaway. Pretty cool. They are made in 1967 or 8 WWI Commemoratives. (this is a general photo I found but not mine)

wow very nice

bonjing · 11-12-2016, 09:43 AM

Sorry for the stupid question, are these replicas or functioning firearms?

They are functioning and were produced by Colt. I will load some better photos in a few months when I have them in my possession.

Picked up a twelve inch ar500 steel gong today and went shooting. We tried spinning it and shooting the back side when it was reversed. Good times and a good waste of ammo.

Or, as my daughter would say..."Tis but a scratch"

Dang buy me some thats almost as cheap as I can reload it and lot less time consuming!

Remo · 11-26-2016, 02:32 PM

Does anyone have a .22 lr conversion kit for their AR? I can't decide on a kit or just a new gun. I can get an M&P 15-22 for $350, so is it worth it to get a $250 kit or just a new gun. Any opinions?

G G · 11-29-2016, 01:14 PM

I have a S&W E Series 1911 that I carry daily for the last 4 years. I bought a M&P Shield about a year ago in 40 S&W. I love it cause I can carry it even on my job with no one being the wiser. I also do Private Investigations on the side and work as armed security part time too. With the Florida G license I have to qualify once a year for every caliber I carry. I need to go soon and re-qualify for the 1911 and I have put off doing it with the 40. I am selling the 40 to a friend and buying a Shield in 45. Most say the 45 isn't any more felt recoil than the 40 and some say it's less. Anyhow it will save me about 70 bucks a year on not having to qualify with two guns. I would only have to qualify once with a 45. And I can do a smidgen better than Steves target than whoever shot that one with a 45. LOL

I bought one for my dad about four years ago but Im not sure if he's ever used it. I will ask and get back with you.

I am thinking this would go better here than in joke pics .. .

Carry and Conceal Canines!

bonjing · 12-05-2016, 09:57 AM

LOL, I would carry a hi capacity corgi.

G G · 12-10-2016, 10:35 AM

Not sure if anyone cares or not, but it would appear that campus carry and open carry is probably got a very good chance of passing in Florida this year.

MurphysLaw · 12-10-2016, 05:48 PM

Havent looked at new guns in a while but im wanting another sub compact single stack 9mm to CCW. I gave my Kahr PM9 to the wife when she got her permit, so i want something similar for me. I like the Kimber micro or ultra carry, i have the midsize Kimber 1911, but find it tough to conceal. Also considering another Kahr and the M&P shield. Not a huge glock fan, never could get used to the grip and trigger on my 22 or 27. Open to just about anything else.
