Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

Of course, if you're (Rabbi) able to, shoot the SR9, XD9, and G17 (and as many others as you can). For YEARS, I thought I wanted a Berreta 92FS for my first pistol.....until I shot it. I had all but made up my mind on getting that gun until I shot it. Nothign 'wrong' with the gun etc, it just didn't fit very well in my hand, and I - personally - didn't shoot it well. I tried others, but fell in love / tore it up with my XD. |

that's what I thought I remembered.
Is a drawback of DI a dirty/dirtier bolt carrier group etc? I think I remember reading once that one of the reasons AKs can run dirtier ammo is because of the piston. ...but I'm a novice on the subject. |

Based on personal experience (well documented in this thread) I initially purchased a pistol mainly based on price, and within a few months purchased another based on actual quality and performance.
The first one I got (the Ruger) is now the only gun in the house that I don't keep loaded - it's in the case I bought it in and I keep trying to sell it, but nobody's interested. |

Frankly, I think you're better off saving your money and getting something else. But if you're interested, drop me a PM. There's a picture of it in post 145 (Viridian laser/light NOT included ). |

I have to ship my AR-15 to get a quad rail put on it; what's the best way to ship it? Should I seperate the upper and lower receiver?

June would be good. I'll be working and have money to spend. Not a big deal, if you don't get it sold between now and then hit me up before you come down this way and make sure I'm still in the market (which short of a money issue, I'm always in the market for another gun).

Posted this in the survival thread last night. Figured this was an appropriate thread for it as well, and a quick search didn't show it being posted yet. Sorry if I missed it and this is a repost.

I got a couple of boxes of .45 as self defense loads. It's Hornady's Critical Defense round minus the nickel plated brass shell and green tip instead of red. I carry the CD anyway, and for the same price, why not?
