Official T4R "Firearms" thread

Just the basics.

Have you had any issues with your PRO mounts shifting around? I had one on my 6720 that would need to be snapped against the torque clicks a few times after each magazine or it would slide forward and backward in the rail.

Never. I usually click them three times and mount them to the upper receiver, not the handguard, and they do pretty well.

Aimpoint has ridiculous CS. I'd email them with any problems and they'll get back to you on optics a decade old.

So...
I was really into guns back in the 1990's...not so much now.
Still like 'em though.
Was a fair amount of restrictions back then.

You guys are talking 'stamps'... is that full auto?

Sorry to sound like a bonehead, guess I could look it up on the net and pretend I know what I am talking about...

Looking at the rest of you guys I am feeling like an antique.

I cant afford to shoot a full auto...

Wanted to ad this link too.

My old Hi-Power was not feeding properly, replaced all the springs...just like new now...maybe better.

Stamps are for any NFA item. In my case it's an SBR.

BHPs are good guns.
 
I spent some time in the gun room today... yes I have a whole room for gun stuff, storage and reloading. Thursday a new friend found a way home. Something I've been wanting for a LONG time but never could source one without paying an exorbitant price on GunBroker.... Century Sterling MkIV 9mm

Mostly spent time playing with the new QuickLoad program learning. But I also popped about 200 primers from .30-06 and ran them through the tumbler. I finally got shiny brass out of it! Left was my first time with the stainless tumbler, I didn't know you're not supposed to start it and then go to bed (so it sat in dirty water overnight). Left rifle cartridge was this run Lake City .30-06. Center rifle is a NEW Norma .280Rem. Right rifle is once fired LC .30-06.

That is very nice . I've been considering a 224 Valkyrie . If you don't mind , how much $ do you think you have in the upper assembly ?
 
Have a P-07. Looking at getting an AR-15 pistol or 16" can't decide, V Seven probably.


Nice P-07 . I'm a big CZ fan . It's not often we get to see something " Cajunized " on this forum ! I have a Urban Gray P-01 with a few Cajun parts ( needs more ! ) and a FDE SP-01 with a race hammer and converted to single action only and a stock SP-01 and 75 SAO .40 S&W . I'll get some pictures soon .
 
Can't list them all, as I can't think of them all, but I have multiple AR-15 SBRs, one of which is a factory Colt 6933, and a Colt 6450 9MM that I SBR'ed and run a Gemtech MultiMount can on it, a 20" AR with a surplus X Colt 20" M16 upper, a couple of 10/22s, one is a takedown lite in a Magpul Backpacker stock. 2 AAC Mini's
Rem 700 AAC with a Huntertown can
Handgun wise, I have multiple 1911's: Les Baer Thunder Ranch, Colt 5" in .38Super, and a Commander in .45ACp.
Glock 17, 19 and 42, S&W 5906, a S&W Mod60, and a Colt 1903 Pocket Model manufactured in 1923.
Ruger MKII/45
KelTec P32
Have a SilencerCo Sparrow II in NFA jail.
 
One of my favorite firearms is the benelli m2...runs like a champ; which i appreciate the most, as semi auto shotguns are prone to issues. surprisingly accurate with rifled slugs as well...100 yard target below.

8.5 inch Ballistics Advantage barrel in 300 blackout....and 11.5 inch stainless Bravo Company in 5.56.
optic is a Trijicon accupoint (green triangle reticle). Can is a 762 Saker.

700P LTR in 308...had the barrel cut and threaded from 20 inch to 18.5, so it would better fit the transport case. been slowly working on her for the last 16 years. would have been easier to just have picked up a Ruger Precision rifle! 400 yard target below.

Received the ALPHA Marksman V4 Slide G19 Gen3 - TiAlCN Plated and Trijicon RM07 Type 2 6.5 MOA RMR.

The TiAlCN ia a PVD plating process that is wear and corrosion resistant and has a Rose Gold color. It really pretties up the otherwise utilitarian look of Glocks which, don't get me wrong, I still appreciate.

I think the slide looks-wise is a nice balance between cutouts and serrations, it's not as obnoxious as some of the aftermarket Glock slides out there. And pricing is aggressive versus the competition, this particular slide with completion kit, suppressor height night sights and channel liner already installed can be hundreds less.

I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces.

pretty sweet work there Jim.

A fan of Glock for quite some time now. I used to strictly shoot 40...but broke down just recently and picked up a 17 MOS for general practice, and shoot competitions with; as ammo is significantly cheaper.

Been screwing with the 17 so much it stopped working...lol. Optic + brake caused the thing to stop cycling with 115gr. Had to switch out the recoil spring to 13 lbs, perhaps cutouts to lighten the slide would have helped as well.

Thanks!
Yeah my slide came with two springs, a 14lb spring and a 17lb spring. The 17lbs is for factory ammo with no significant mods to the gun. The lighter spring is for handloads and compensated. Looks like you got yours handled. Very nice!
 
Here is some of my CZ 75's . The 6 shot group with the black .40 was from a bench at 30 yards and the 4 inch group with the gray P-01 a test with new sights , a 16 round magazine with 5 shots from the bench at 30 yards,5 shots at 25 yards offhand , 3 shots at 15 yards and 3 shots double action at 7 yards .

I was at an NRA banquet last week and won these two in a raffle and drawing. The kimber is the micro 9. Anyone have this or have used this? I don't currently have a carry permit and not sure if this is something I should keep or trade towards something else. Looking for opinions on this little fellow. I've been looking for a shotgun and couldn't be happier about getting it.
