Official T4R "Firearms" thread

My latest "project" took my Ban Era Colt 6920 cut the front sight post, added a surefire mini scout, and upgraded the Aimpoint PRO for an H1.

Anyone got experience with the vortex strikefire ii and 3x magnifier? There is a bundle on amazon for $380 and it seems like a solid deal, especially compared to eotech or aimpoint and not paying over a grand for a similar set up. I understand there is a quality trade off, but I'm not going to the sandbox anytime soon.

Not those specific models....I have several different Vortex Scopes, bino's, and two different red dot sights. Nothing in their premium scope lines...I think the highest level scope is a Diamondback. Scopes track and hold zero well with average clarity and field of view. Red Dots track and hold zero fine, average clarity/field of view, but battery life is very, very poor IMO. (Spitfire AR,
Spitfire 1X) If they did not have the etched lens aiming point they would not be used at all the battery life is that poor. Next red dot I purchase will be an Aimpoint model.
 
Picked up my ECO last friday, love at first sight! super slim, light weight, great balance. Definitely a new EDC.

Classic smith Semi-auto. Loved the one I had, wish I never sold it.

I rarely let a gun go that I regret later, but that was one I regret selling.

If you haven't already- grab a Wolf 17# hammer spring- it makes the trigger pull so much nicer.

Enjoy it!

Yep... These things are tanks and seem to never be for sale.
 
So I was looking for a multi-caliber can that can handle full auto 9mm and looking at the Dead Air Ghost-M and saw a familiar sight.... the interior of a 4Runner! Just thought I'd share with everyone.

Finally got around to getting everything set up and purchased...trust formed last week and made my first suppressor purchase--a SilencerCo Omega. Originally thought I was going to get a Saker 7.62, but then they came out with the Saker ASR 762 which was a lot longer and heavier than I had wanted. Paperwork was officially submitted yesterday for that and this morning I went to the post office to pick up a money order and mail my F1 in as well so I can SBR one of my pistols...looks right at home on it. I expect a decently long wait, but the silver lining is that they are inching closer and closer to the 41F deadline submissions and I expect there will be a fairly sharp dropoff after that.

Congrats!! you made a great choice. I've been really impressed with the omega on all calibers. Thinking of picking up another shortly. fingers crossed that after the 41F backlog is finished, we can go to 2-4 month waiting periods. Have a feeling that if HPA does pass, it won't be until late next year.

These ought to be enough. The KAK brace is for dedicated 22 upper, think a 9mm pistol upper for one and the rest, who knows.

I am not one to question firearm purchases. However, that's a very odd collection with a lot of "why?" in it for me.
