I remember an article in which a NYPD officer discharged 15 shots at a suspect only to hit everything but including multiple bystanders.
Perhaps this will help with that.
Just received 500 rounds of 9mm 124gr +P HSTs from these folks. $557.79 shipped (to PA). Not bad, $1.10 per round which is a pre panic retail price. I've actually seen them go for more than that yet in the middle of the Trump Slump no less.
I ordered noon Wednesday they shipped an hour later...
Via my phone. Apparently the backlogs in my area have been worked through- applied for renewal online, received approval 30 mins later and scheduled an apt to pickup my card tomorrow.
Can non residents apply online also? Things are running smooth again it seems.
Also- FWIW, there is no way...
Just bought a 515 that was unbelievably on sale on Midway, it's on my doorstep now, waiting for me. Now I have heard from a few different sources that Holosun's QD mount is not the best, does anyone have any experience with them? Would I be better off replacing it straight off? Ordinarily I'd...
I certainly have. Everytime I go there are multiple newbies out there. Some have questionable taste in guns, some splurge on the good stuff, some over splurge on really good stuff they don't really need. Saw a younger guy with a Les Baer for "home defense". First time owner too. None of em...

Will this be the first time these excellent revolvers have been imported factory new to this country?
Shame about the price but considering the quality of materials, manufacturer and the features I think the $3,000+ price is justified. Unfortunately I...
@Fightingfish, watch this before you start in on your surplus scrounging.
I agree with him too. I once recommended the Spanish FR-8 as a potential option for a good classic military style bolt action. However a recent perusal on Gunbroker shows them going for almost $1,000 these days. The...
I was fondling the Delica 4 I had purchased for my step father when I realized that I really like Spyderco's FRN handles....... So I got this. In a sprint run version. I have a disease.
It is crazy light and has a fantastic action, feels like it's on ball bearings even though it's a bronze...
I'm sure Glock is very grateful that they didn't have to deal with instantaneous internet dissemination in the 70s and 80s when their pistol had similar issues.

The unavailability of guns, ammo and related accessories has rekindled my interest in blades. What with the unrelenting wave of terrible news I decided to partake in a little retail therapy and I figured I was...
Has there been any further thought given to this as a paid feature? I'd pay a reasonable fee for this service and there are all kinds of videos I'd like to do for the forums. I find using a 3rd party host to be somewhat tedious. Or is there a better/easier servive than Google Drive to use?

Cost is not a consideration.
Absent regulation I wonder how much new manufacture belt fed machine guns would cost?
I'd love to add one of those new Knights Armament constant recoil guns to my collection. Hell, absent regulation I would put one on a pintle mount in a pickup bed.
I have never used a shoulder rig until now and I quite like it actually. I have carried this way at work for the past three days over long hours, 12 hour shift on Friday, and found this setup to be very comfortable and convenient. I wear it under a regular button up shirt and nothing else...
Just bought the shelves today.
5 gallon jugs of water on tge bottom with room for 5 more, 80 liters of water in bottles above that with room for 80 more and 2 mountain house buckets that I will continue to stack. And the little Sterno Inferno stove up top there that works perfectly for...

Very good price for this ammo, excellent for HD/SD and probably a good round for hunting too.
The 55gr seems to do well out of short barrels:
Trained with Ben and Rachel of @OnSight Firearms Training in Pittsburgh again last weekend. I have pretty much been sleeping during all my downtime after an insanely busy holiday schedule so I am just getting to this now.
As usual the training was excellent and fun. This being my third time...
I have never been a huge fan of bullpups but her eit makes good sense. Putting an semiauto 50. BMG rifle into a form factor that can be effectively shoulder fired is incredibly cool.
So if you will all just crowdfund me $12,000 I will let you know what I think.
I was just getting my gear sorted out for an upcoming class with @OnSight Firearms Training the end of this month, making sure everything fit, was adjusted properly ect. This is what I am currently running:
Up top is a "Invrt Bandoleer" from IC13. On it are 2 rifle mag pouches, 1 pistol mag...
Notice the front slide serrations and the lack of the annoying cutout on the front strap.
Now I have to fight the temptation to replace my current, perfectly good, G19. And the temptation center of my brain is relentless, ruthless and totally unstoppable.
Dammit Glock! This is how Glock is...
Really interesting stuff I think. Fascinating insight into not only the technical aspects of the HiPoint product but also insight into the ethical practice of the company and an interesting look into firearms forensics.
Just a few hours. One on one session with Ben of @OnSight Firearms Training.
Training was great, as per usual. Being the only student was really nice.
I learned that my grip was sub optimal and how to fix it, you just can't learn everything from print and videos, and also how to slow down and...
$189 for a 500 round case, $.38 per round. $209 shipped.
Hornady 5.56 NATO 75 gr BTHP Match Frontier 500 Round Case
According to their policy page they will ship to NYS FFLs.
In my experience the Hornady/Lake City Frontier ammunition is excellent with accuracy that well exceeds the price...
The "Commie Culler":
Now sporting Magpul Furniture and with rail covers and handstop from Slate Black Industries.
The purpose of swapping the Magpul furniture onto the DD from the NYGF carbine was to allow me to install the LaRue RISR cheek rest-
The cheek pad is spring loaded to allow the...
Oh wow, I actually posted about an NYS legal gun, imagine that!
When I finally get around to purchasing a revolver I am going to very seriously consider this one. It seems a bit more special than the 686 for some reason. Maybe I am just a sucker for Colt cachet and snake names.
But if I bought...
Moving out of state? Wanna proper AR but don't want to assemble it yourself? Just want a warranty? Check these guys out:
CM4 Complete Rifle
I have been wanting to post about these guys for a while. Not cheap but a lot of solid features for the dough. I have their Mlok rail on the NYGF...
I am bored of politics, let's talk about GUNS!
I have made no secret of my disdain of piston driven ARs in the past but I do like the PWS treatment. It seems to solve many of the problems inherent in piston AR conversions.
The long piston enclosed in a gas tube seems like it would really...
Once again this technically should go in the pistol forum........ but I am going to put it here, I think you all understand why.
Out of really short barrels 5.56 generates only slightly more muzzle energy than 10mm ammo does in a similar length barrel. I'm thinking that put of a 9" or less...
A really long time it seems. I have routinely gone for 1k+ between cleanings (I have on multiple occasions shot that much in a single range session) and have gone just past 2k a few times as well, primarily out of laziness.
I generally clean after every range trip but sometimes it doesn't...
For your benefit @Edwardteach72
I had several shooting buddies that owned the original ones and the were all temperamental creatures and not particularly accurate either.
My one buddy owned a PSL and a DPMS 308 and both were pieces of rattle trap shit. He couldn't get either to cycle...
