ChiefsPlanet - Other Sports Off Season Lets Talk Guns

Haven't got that far yet. They've certainly got some interesting stuff on their website, though. Damn.

I should check with my friend in the Air Force (security forces major) and see what he knows about them.

I tried to check out their website, but it is blocked at work. :mad:

FN Herstal 45 acp, 14 round magazine. American made. Their website claims they provide 70% of the sidearms to the military. Looks pretty bad ass, and if I'm willing to drop $400, what's an extra $100?

Bump. No luck with my Air Force buddy - his issued sidearm is a Beretta.

All the reviews I've found on this are very positive.

LOL, no. I ordered it on Saturday. I'm sure it'll be a little while. How long does CDNN take to ship guns anyway?

I thought FNH was a Belgian company? Either way, they make quality shit seeing as they're responsible for the SCAR.

Yeah, doesn't look like I can go wrong with that one. I'm going to make some calls and see if anybody local carries it.

FN is top drawer stuff. Not sure about the 70% claim with the array of weapons the military uses.

Should be interesting to see who comes out on top of the competition to replace the M16. I bought some Smith and Wesson stock on a flyer just in case.

went to bass pro to get some ammo for the 12. Really ticked they didnt have a better selection. Seems these 'Home defense" rounds have taken over. Ive always shot winchester super x in #4 buck 3 in mag. ended up gettin single O.

Anyone have any hands on with the home defense stuff federal & winchesters puttin out? Thoughts?

My FFL had the gun I ordered within a day or two.

Bushmaster rumored to be closing up, kicking the line to Remington (same ownership). Gonna be a ton of folks go after the next generation just like when they deep sixed the 1911 and moved to the Baretta.

Oh wow, OK. I'll call CDNN today and see what they say and then I'll call the FFL.

Anyone play around with Garands here?

I am looking to put a rail and possibly an Eotech sight on mine and I was just fishing for someone who might have direct experience.

Looking to do the same with my Saiga .308.

I have plenty of experience with the Eotech sights, which are awesome, but would something like this be a good alternative (since I don't want to spend $500 on each rifle):
