The Polymer 80 PF45 frame will work as an option. Finding one with a serial number may be a chore. You can run it on a Gen 4 frame with an adapter for the front of the slide. Use the Gen 3 recoil system but with an adapter.
This is for 9mm/40S&W. Not sure if they make one for 45. You’ll have to...
I reload, handload and I cast bullets. With components purchased under Obummer, I can load 50 rounds of 38spl, 158gr LSWC for less than $.50 using old/used brass. Most of my lead, around 500lbs, I got for $30. I load my own carry ammo but use purchased JHP bullets for them. I’ve done that for...
A hole in air does no good though. I’ve always said: “It doesn’t matter how big the caliber is that you miss with….”
Since the advent of good 9mm hp bullets the “45 won’t shrink” argument is a moot point.
I have read lots of posts, not yours, but from others, where it was obvious their manhood...
I’d look at the 9mm S&W Easy pistols of one kind or another.
The optic comment is a good one too.
Best to him. I really hope he can find something that works for him.
True. I have a great friend that is a Marine sniper, former police sniper, former USMC Pistol team member, current firearms instructor, and a major contributor to “The Armory Life” publications and videos. He’s truly a great man and dear friend. He has been teaching civilians varying firearms...
I’m not a fan of the DA/SA action but I did shoot it well when I carried a P226. No safety, decocker only. I understand your reasoning for the DA/SA action and hey, Ernest Langdon is a Marine so…. :)
(From 2010. I’ve lost 70lbs since then..)
I agree with this statement. If it’s got one you HAVE to train during the draw stroke to remove it. I have several 1911’s, I have a BHP and I love those old nostalgic pistols. IF I carry one of them, I carry Condition 0 when I get into a “YELLOW’ awareness situation.
The pistols I normally...
Yes. No manual safety for me either. I’m getting older and while I can still bench press 215lbs at 67 years old, "snicking" a safety off can be hard on my XL and old thumbs. I can “run” 5 miles on an elliptical in 44 minutes too but my left thumb is a bit arthritic and has to be wrapped when I...
These rounds did not go all the way into battery. They are not light primer strikes but out of battery primer strikes. This shouldn’t happen either but, the problem MAY BE shooter induced, I said MAY BE. I’d like to see your grip. I’m wondering if it isn’t interfering with slide movement. The...
Okay. Justified shooting and then civil action is the basis of my quandary.
A judge would have to ignore this section of Indiana code to go ahead with a civil trial though, right?
The civil “accuser" is then liable for the “defendants” legal fees.
Am I reading that right or not?
Well, you asked for opinions and, as you’ve probably read, you’ve gotten quite a few! That being said, since everyone has an opinion, I’ll voice mine here too.
I make my own Kydex holsters.
I make several types of IWB ones. The ones I like most though are regular OWB’s with straps or hooks on...
