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? [Reply]
So I just broke down and ordered these..girlfriend came home asking where the money in the savings went
The Springfield Mil-Spec is a nice gun. I used to have one, but sold it a few months ago. Probably should've kept it. I don't have any experience with the Remington 1911's.
Are you aware of the Remington and Springfield rebates going on right now? [Reply]

Yeah someone said something about they had mail in rebates..I haven't looked into it yet but since you reminded me I am going to do that [Reply]

That Mil-Spec is a great gun to start with when you are building something custom. Remington 1911's are decent guns for the money. Ruger makes a good one as well. I have a buddy in Alaska who killed 5 or 6 deer with his last year. [Reply]
So, I kinda have new gun fever. I have about $1000 saved up so far to put toward a new hand gun. Any advice at all is appreciated, the only criteria I i want met are:
Full frame
9mm
15+ capacity
Threaded barrel
So far I like the HK USP tactical and the Beretta m9a3. Anyone familiar with either of them? [Reply]

I love H&K pistols..reliable, good shooting, like the way they feel in my hand..so that would be my choice
I hate Berettas..with a passion..probably because we had the real shitty military version when I was in the Army and they were junk..so I am biased on that side
If you can go to a gun range somewhere and rent them to see how you like them I would do that..if not go with whatever you feel like will be the best for you [Reply]

I've owned a 92a1 before and thought it was a beautiful gun, very accurate, but just a bit big for me. Going by the photos of the a3, it looks slimmed down a tad. I do miss my Beretta.
I've also heard that former servicemen either love or hate them, based on what condition their issued one was in. My vet friends are 50/50 on em it seems like.
I've never shot or held an HK pistol, but I've heard that the USP tactical is a great gun, it also has a nice $1200 price tag on it. I've been looking for an HK dealer in that has one in stock around the Lawrence/Topeka/KC area, but no dice. I'd like to shoot one before I spend that kind of money on it. [Reply]

Yeah the one I had and almost everyone around me had lived past their days..slides were loose..grips were junk..mags didn't want to seat..barrels were shot out too..horrible..so horrible..so that's why I don't like them and suggest you listen to others on that..cause I'm an asshole [Reply]

Awesome.
For a few "HOLY SHIT" moments, buy some slugs and shoot a watermelon. [Reply]
