    Sidearms & Scatterguns new polymer 45

    Re: new polymer 45 I have a Glock 21SF and will be getting a M&P45 as soon as I can find the model I want. Those two and the HK45 are the three poly .45s I would consider. Possibly the FN as well. Handle/shoot each of them and see which you like best.

    Rifle Scopes Scout scope recommendation?

    Re: Scout scope recommendation? I can't pick the rifle up for another 2 weeks (pawn shop hold) but I'm thinking of putting a 4x pistol scope on it that I have laying around, just to try the concept. It had the XS ghost ring sights on it so I might just use them but the scout setup seemed like...

    Rifle Scopes Scout scope recommendation?

    I just bought a Marlin 1895 .45-70 Guide Gun and am thinking of doing a scout type scope setup. I know this isn't the typical type of scope or rifle discussed here but I'm sure there is some experience with this style here as well. Any recommendations? It looks like Burris and Leupold are the...

    Re: Griffin Armament Checkmate II giveaway - I signed them On an unrelated note, I finally get to pick up my Checkmate Stainless tomorrow. My first NFA transfer (not the last) and it took way too long.

    USMC 40X barreled receivers

    Re: USMC 40X barreled receivers Anything you get from the CMP is a bit of a roll of the dice. You can check with the CMP North store at Camp Perry and see if they have barreled receivers in the store. If so you can drive over and handpick one. Might not be great but you would be able to see...

    Age For First Gun?

    Re: Age For First Gun? My daughter isn't due until Nov but she already has a pink Crickett .22 rifle. I've had it since July. If I have a son eventually he will get my great grandfather's JC Higgins (Marlin) .22 someday (I'm sure they will eventually get more of my guns as well). As far as...

    40X HELP

    Re: 40X HELP The standard barrel is basically the same as a varmint or PSS barrel contour. The HB is quite a bit heavier.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns General ?s about Smith and Wesson 1911s

    Re: General ?s about Smith and Wesson 1911s The S&W 1911s do have some MIM parts, exactly which ones I don't recall offhand (they aren't as big of a deal as some people make, Smith make pretty good MIM). The new E-series does not have a firing pin safety, the older ones do (though it is not a...

    Affordable and Quality 22 Revolver?

    Re: Affordable and Quality 22 Revolver? You can still find deals on S&W .22 revolvers, I have a model 18 and 617 and had a 34 that were all under $400, but those deals are harder and harder to find. Ruger Single Sixes seem to be more readily available in the $250-300 range used. I had a Rossi...

    rem 40X Stock Old one

    Re: rem 40X Stock Old one I have one that is almost exactly the same. It came on a 40XB HB .22 from the CMP that was a "short stock". Apparently quite a few of them were cut down for use by youth shooting organizations and later returned to the Army then CMP.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns pistol in 357sig - recommendations?

    Re: pistol in 357sig - recommendations? I have a Sig P226R in .357 and a Glock 35 with a Lone Wolf .357 barrel in it. Both shoot very well and are completely reliable with decent ammo (the only issues I've had have been with some cheap frangible that gives everything issues). While I'm happy...

    I F###ING HATE RUGER!!!

    Re: I F###ING HATE RUGER!!! Sorry, never had a problem with them. Not that bad if you can read and understand basic pistol function. If the Ruger is bad never try a Mauser Broomhandle or a Rem Nylon 66. Heck a 1911 is about as complicated as the Ruger, just different. Everyone feel free to...

    Suppressors Griffin Armament cans

    Re: Griffin Armament cans I have heard good reviews of their .22 cans, I have one being transfered now. Not sure about the centerfire cans, I think the current versions are relatively new revisions and I haven't heard much about them yet.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 21sf Concealability and Surefire tac-lite???

    Re: Glock 21sf Concealability and Surefire tac-lite??? Redmanss pretty much answered it. I have carried my 21SF IWB in a Galco Scout (thats what I had) and it was fine. Not as easy as something smaller and I had to go up to a size larger t-shirt but doable. If you are going to carry IWB with...

    Remington 722 Build

    Re: Remington 722 Build Believe the 722 is a short action, the 721 was the long action (I had one in 30-06). I'm not sure if you will have an issue finding a DBM but the other parts should be the same or similar to a 700. I think the extractor is a hard to find part on the 722 if there is a...

    Need info on this Hi-Standard 22 pistol

    Re: Need info on this Hi-Standard 22 pistol Nice gun. Not sure on the current value but five years or so ago when I worked in a gun shop we would have sold that for at least $700 and it would have sold in a heartbeat. Around here there are (or were) quite a few collectors who wwould have...

    22 Suppressor Host Opinions

    Re: 22 Suppressor Host Opinions I'm planning on ordering the 22/45 tomorrow. I would only get the Sig if you have to have a "combat" style. The guns designed for .22 seem to work better on average than the conversions in my experience.

    40x and Winchester 52 on CMP website

    Re: 40x and Winchester 52 on CMP website LEO will also cover all the requirements. I was thinking about a 52 but the 2 40Xs I got from the last batch will have to do. There are supposed to be few complete rifles but plenty of barreled actions if you want to build.
