    Sidearms & Scatterguns Army REJECTS Glock 19X, "It's a shitty pistol that is not worth the Army's time and money." - General James C. McConville, Army Chief of Staff

    Know how I know you did'nt read much of what I posted? Cause I laid out my experience and have no connection with group, none, nada. This article SF and the G19 does a pretty good job of explaining it. I'm sure that America will sleep safer tonight knowing that no one knows what SF is using...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Army REJECTS Glock 19X, "It's a shitty pistol that is not worth the Army's time and money." - General James C. McConville, Army Chief of Staff

    That can be a problem when you listen to folks who are not neccessarily SME in handguns. In that specific case, they had issues, but it was not the fault of Beretta. Beretta made magazines function fine, but when the war kicked off, The Army outsourced the purchase of magazines to a company...

    My point is that something like the MHS pistol means jack Shit in the big picture when it comes to future conflicts.

    Magazine that was designed to pefrom better in san Beretta had a product improved M9 that they presented to the DoD. They had implemented many good changes and offered them .Gov a good price for upgrades. But the Army was stuck on the different grip size requirment along with needing RDS and...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Army REJECTS Glock 19X, "It's a shitty pistol that is not worth the Army's time and money." - General James C. McConville, Army Chief of Staff

    congresional overview What I find interesting is that the Army, as part of the contract cannot disclose the unit price. I've read other reports where the Slides failing to lock back are counted as stoppages, and that the AMU waived it off as operator error due to them riding the slide stop...

    So then why not educate me and correct it, it's not like were giving up the go codes for the Nuclear TRIAD, were talking Pistols. I'm no Expert (Even admitted as much) and this is a Discussion Board, where we ...Wait for it .... Discuss. guns and such. I'm a Big Boy, I can take it.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Army REJECTS Glock 19X, "It's a shitty pistol that is not worth the Army's time and money." - General James C. McConville, Army Chief of Staff

    I've always seen the term "Green Side" used to describe the Normal SF units Not the SMU like CAG. I'm sure over time the G19's have made there way into the Arms rooms as SOCOM has built up an inventory of them. It's my understanding that the M9 is still on the property books of most SF BN's as...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Army REJECTS Glock 19X, "It's a shitty pistol that is not worth the Army's time and money." - General James C. McConville, Army Chief of Staff

    I see it's a Glock Bashing thread. In my 21 year career in Armor, We carried pistols, I started out with the 1911A1 and later transitioned to the M9. As an E7, I ran all our Weapons qualifications at both Company and BN level. So I got to see lots of people come thru my range to qualify. You...

    What happened to using a sling?

    Just my $.02, Slings and Sling techniques are just a good tool in the tool box. I think the secret is like using any tool, is when and for what job. I like and shoot Service rifle, where I learned to use a Sling. I also grew up in the Army of the 80's/90's and early 2000's and saw the...

    Rifle Scopes New Bushnell Elite LRHS2

    I have a LRTSi 4.5-18x. I got when Vista was doing a big rebate, got it for around $750. It replaced a long serving Leupold MK 4 10X. Scope is fantastic, the clarity is amazing, love the G3 reticle, the turrets, it tracks great. This new offering does not excite me in any way. To me, its a safe...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone still run a mk4 scope?

    I had a MK4 fixed 10X that had a Premier Mildot reticle I purchased back in 1995. Was an excellent scope. Sat on my PSS for many years. I finally sold it last year to fund a newer scope with more magnification. I don't miss it.

    Alternative to 10/22 mag ???

    I bought my Ruger Target rimfire rifle over Savage and CZ because of the rotary magazine... Savage even created there own version just to compete.

    New barrel or new rifle

    I'm going to keep it stock, I hate to screw around with a classic old school PSS, I like the idea of a Barreled action in a KRG Bravo. My range is limited to 550yds, so a 6.5 or any other caliber is not an immediate need. Thanks for everyone's opinions....

    New barrel or new rifle

    Interesting, I've heard of the Remage, does this require the stock to be modified to accommodate the nut. I'm assuming it does.

    New barrel or new rifle

About 3 years ago ,I renewed my interest in long range...I sent the OEM stock out to be milled for a PT&G mag...

    Rifle Scopes Trijicon Credo 1-8

    Why Trijicon is befuddled on how to make a reticle daylight bright puzzles me. Perhaps too many years playing with Tritium and Fiber optics and never having to. The Only LPVO I look at are ones that are daylight bright. to me, that's like making a scope that does not have zero stops. It's...

    Yeah, I purchased a 10x MK4 with a Premier Mil dot reticle back in 94. cost me $1200. Shot it for many years... finally sold it to fund a newer Mil scope. For it's time, it was a great scope.
