Non-Political Gun Talk (On topic)

[oldngray]

Thank you, sir.


Not gonna lie. I put a pretty penny on this thing. But I've been trying to get my hands on a new one for years and they just seem to be impossible to get. Still paid less than MSRP and most other listings so I made out.

A quality newly manufactured Hi Power is a lot different than a worn out war surplus one.

No matter what gun I try, I always come back to J-frame revolvers for carry.

I'm not a big fan of J-frames but if that is your preference the durned things just plain work. Not newfangled and sexy though.

I'm not buying another carry gun without renting it first and trying it. Plus who doesn't like a day at the range trying new guns? Lol. Gets spendy fast tho.

No safeties, no magazines, not even a hammer on my current one. Easy to hide because of their shape, lightweight and comfortable as hell. I also shoot them really well and that counts more than anything.

Find friends with guns you can borrow. Plus at the range most people will let you try out their new toys.

I rented a Ruger LCP one time and I hated it. The trigger SUCKED.

Too common on pistols designed for concealed carry. They go overboard on trying to be safe. I want a better trigger so I can shoot accurately.

That's what I hate about my Bodyguard. Trigger pull is so damn long I have to readjust my hand when pulling it.

Amen to that!

A proper holster is all you need to take care of that.

And never put your finger on the trigger unless you are planning to shoot.

It's actually quite scary that this isn't common sense, but I see people do it all the time.

Tell that to the "special" Agent in that video with the Glock! lol

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

I'm the only one here professional enough that I know of..BANG

I think some people get into bad habits with the Glock and its different trigger.

Extra incentive to keep the finger off.

That whole video goes off like a bad SNL sketch.

Hard to believe an Agent could be so inept. I've seen the FBI Academy and those guys are hardcore.
