Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I really liked it a lot.
I haven't shot the 9 compact, but I shot the M&P Standard and Pro. I love the size and weight of the shield.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Love that black stainless SA!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice Mike!

What's the little metal thing in the strap under the trigger guard?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

:2A .45 round.... Or it looks like it.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Correct it's the ranger-T that I took out of the chamber to take the picture.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Love the 1911. Was the first handgun I fired as an adult.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Is that the Rush 24? How do you like it?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

+1 decent ccw size, unbeatable price and easy to handle:tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

It's the 72. I really like it alot! I used it as my carry on to Cancun and I fit a whole weeks worth of clothes in it.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ok here's the AR build list:

Adams Arms Piston Upper OR Stag DI upper
Spikes Tactical "Punisher" Stripped Lower
Magpul BUS
PSA LPK with Magpul MOE Grip
Magpul CTR or STR stock.

Future add-ons:
Quadrail front end
Vert Grip
Aimpoint PRO

Can't wait. 2 more days of OT til I have the $ for the upper. :D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Add a good trigger to that list.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Recently traded in my Smith & Wesson .40 for this.

I shoot this one much better.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

That is the RTF version of the Glock right? I really liked that look. Do they still make that? Or is it a thing of that past?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Eh stock trigger will be fine. It's going to be a house/defense gun. Most I'd do for the trigger is the Spikes Battle Trigger.

I want an AK too but my department will only let us use 5.56/.223 AR-15 for the rifle class and such. Gonna get some free training out of this, Patrol Rifle class, night shoot class, and active shooter class. :D

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

No, the RTF or gen 3.5 was uncomfortable so they pulled the plug. I do like the crescent shaped slide grasping groves.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

As long as you know what the mil-spec trigger is like and are good with it. I don't like them.:tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Holy Hell. A lot of people own assault rifles

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I had one on my first AR build(sold that rifle to a co-worker a long time ago)
I don't mind it. I'll pick up the spikes battle trigger eventually

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Thanks for the review

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

To me, it's not an assault rifle unless it's full auto and shoots small caliber rifle ammo.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Yep. It's just a rifle. Period.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Don't know if it is a thing of the past or not. Do believe it is the RTF version though I am not sure if it is gen 3.5 or gen 4. How does one tell?

As for uncomfortable? Wow! I liked it because it was more comfortable than my S&W.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Notes in red above.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

The rtf's were considered gen 3, some called them gen 3.5??! The gen 4 has adjustable back straps, ambidextrous mag release, a one peace captive recoil guide rods (just lie the G26&27) and a different grip texture (not the same as the rtf)and they all come with 3 mags. The dead give away that you have a rtf is the crescent shaped slide serrations.

All my glocks are gen 3, I don't care for or need the adjustable back strap which is kind of cheesy. I think glock should have made the adjustable back straps that they slide in rather then fit over top of the back strap. As a right handed shooter I will also never reverse by mag release, they have the frame hogged out on both sides to accommodate this feature!!(yuk)

In 2009 my gun shop ordered me new gen 3 G22 and what came in was the rtf, I trade it before the month was over cause the texture on the grips was too much and went thru me like nails on a chalk board.

At end of the day If I had to rely on modern pistols any glock would be my first choice, enjoy.

And so it begins....

Love that receiver! :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Thanks. It's pretty badass. It's a Spikes Tactical, they make good ****.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Great looking lower. I picked up a tee shirt for my 14yr old son that has the Punisher logo on it and he had no idea what it was, LOL. The little punk won't wear it, guess its going back.
I just picked up a aero precision lower that I'm going use for my 18" build. Love my ARs. Head over to AR15.com, if you haven't already, great group of guys over there.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'm a member over there. Same user name.


Look what arrived today...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Total noob to firearms, but have really gotten into it in the past year. I am on two shooting teams here, and will be shooting in Air Pistol and EIC / Bullseye matches. Other than the .22 for air pistol, I am shooting the 1911 for EIC. Loving every minute of it so far!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Is that a spotting scope built into the partition??

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

A lot of shooting gun/gear boxes are specifically set up for bullseye type matches and indeed have various ways to build in the spotting scope.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Has anyone here handled/shot the new(ish) Sig Sauer 938? I am eye farking this one really hard.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Anyone here check out the new RIA XT22? I'm really tempted...

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Bought a Benelli Montefeltro the other day, I've owned some pretty nice shotguns before but this one takes the cake

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Handled one, no trigger time though. Nice compact size, fans of the 1911 (and the old Colt Mustang) will probably like the P938. Just a hair bigger than the Mustang (and Sig 238) .380 pistols.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

My new toy. Been a while since I picked up a new gun and needed a 9mm for range and possible off duty carry.

Cz p-07 duty with fiber optic sights.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Very nice Frank. Anyone interested, the local store here (Shooters Jax) has the new Springfield XD-S 45 on sale currently for $499.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice price. :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Anyone have any feedback for the Mossberg 100 ATR Bolt Action in a 270? Thinking of picking one up this week with a Bushnell Banner scope.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I"d avoid it. When on a budget, you'll be hard pressed to beat a Savage.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I have shot my buddies a couple times he loves it, and it shoots well. I have a hunting rifle already but if I didnt I would consider buying a used one

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

This looks amazing! Takes regular AR15 mags, can shoot .223 or 5.56 and it's a bolt gun.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Sick!
Cheapest at shows by me is $600.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I'm sure you could order over the phone and havbe them ship it to your FFL for the transfer, not sure how much under 6 you'd be at that point though lol.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Having not read through the entire thread, I apologize if this site was mentioned earlier. But, cheaperthandirt.com is a great site with some pretty sick deals.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Damn nice gun. I had a Super Black Eagle, but it rarely got used so I sold it about 2 yeas ago. Still have my SuperNova pump. That gun is bullet proof. Shoots any shell I feed it. Never a single FTF.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Thanks Chip, I'm pretty happy with it so far
