I think Remington is trying to entice customers back with incredible pricing due to the bad press. They have had some hand guns in the past 15 years but I still swear by their rifles and wouldnt have a problem with most of their handguns.

This RIA Tac II Ultra CS is en route to my FFl :tu

On a different note, I just picked up a Makarov in the 9mm short. Had the egyptian version of this pistol in 380 about 20 years and its one of those I should have never let get away!

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

I took advantage of this and picked up my first shotgun this week! Less than $200 for a 870 12 Gauge. Should serve me well as I get my hunting license and begin down that path.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Good grab!

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

So I’m looking at getting a glock 43 for concealed carry. Any thought pro or con? Figured since I’ve been in Texas for a year now I need a gun like everyone else.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Nice and light to carry. I opted to get the Taran Butler +3 base pad then you have 9+1 rounds of 9mm

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Depends on on your hands. The 43 moves around in my hand a lot but it’s a defensive piece not a shoot all day piece. I use the pierce plus one pinky extension and it doesn’t stick out much. I like the slim feeling of the 43 and even with the streamlight light and laser combo it’s still very light.

Added a glock 22 rtf 2 with the fish gills to the collection. Waiting for a ria mapp to come in

Anybody here subscribe to the online Blue Book of Gun Values? I probably should. Been trying to figure out what to ask for an Italian-reproduction black powder revolver and Gunbroker doesn't have much to go on. Prices of the few listed there are all over the map.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Nice and small, grip too small for me, I carry shields, better size for me and I don’t shoot Glocks anymore.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Which italian repro and what model? I may be able to help. My blue book hasnt been updated in a few years but should still be pretty close to right unless its almost new.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

I'm with Remo on this the 43 is way too small for me but heck I got paws bigger n most peoples heads. I say shop around, try several in that size and caliber. The shield is a great option equally reliable, the Taurus curve is also a great option. If used is an option the Baikal/Makarov in 9x18 or 380 are great options . They are copies of the Walther PPK and equally reliable and very accurate. One last I would highly recommend is the Sig Sauer P225 or the P938 the are a little more expensive than any of the above though.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

+1 on the Shield. In the woods my G20 is good, but for concealed I like the S&W.

Good score Joe!

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Very nice. That will be my next purchase and will likely build my own just to say I did it.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Nice score on the AR.


On the Italian reproduction... In my experience they haven't been worth much more than a couple hundred bucks.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Finally picked up a new rifle that I've had my eye on for a while. Suppressor is paid for but waiting on them to give me the ok.

Only put 50 down the pipe so far. Figure 200 will be a good break in point.

Re: Second Firearm Thread...
 

Break-in or Break-the-bank point? .50 can't be cheap to shoot... ;)

Nice pick-up though! :banger:banger

Great cannon Hal.
