Well, looks like my debit card got yanked on Firearms Direct Club, buying merch from Null, or at a gas pump. Hard to tell which one, but make of that what you will.

Also, look at this fucking thing

Hera H7 bros, I found out that you can get a folding adapter for the H7 chassis from Hera Germany. They're available only in Europe so far, so ask your local Turkish smuggler.

I think it might be just you and me here, but interesting find.

I'm currently infatuated with s&w model 59 and it's younger brother's, but I'm debating between them and a CZ 75. Can anyone tell me how they compare or their experience with the 59's?

I like my 5946, despite being double action only.
Aim Surplus has some police trade-ins available, iirc, and Mec-Gar still makes magazines.

I think Smith finally dropped support for these, so pick up a sideplate now while you can, mine was actually broken right out of the box, an old "NIB" one that had never been fired at that.

Other than the lack of a rail as those were way before this pistols time, its been a reliable stainless brick with probably the best DA pull I've ever felt on a DAO pistol short of HK's light LEM. No "double strike" capability so I imagine works sort of like the Sig DAK and not HK's LEM.

I like my 5946 better than my CZ PO1, which is basically a CZ75 with a rail. The CZ is fairly accurate, but the finish is really shitty (an Eastern Euro gun staple, AK's from the proper place have a shitty finish, too.)

Both guns are accurate, but the CZ will be easier to get parts for, if and when you need them. The stock DA CZ trigger is long and shitty, which you can tune out a little bit with a lighter hammer spring, but the SA pull is quite nice.

I shoot both of them about the same.

I don't think that you're gonna find a CZ75 for $400 unless its seriously clapped-out, so the Smiths are going to be cheaper over all.

Good luck finding one in 10mm for less than a testicle tho, a Tanfo Witness in 10 would probably be better if you want to shoot it.

Suppressors and SBRs are overrated. The main appeal is the government not wanting you to have them.

I have several suppressors and a few SBRs, the only one I use anymore is my 9mm with a can because it’s still short and actually quiet. I have a .22 SBR with a can, but I don’t really use it.

Regular Rifle Caliber SBRs do suck ass. My 10 1/2 inch 5.56 is basically useless without a suppressor or gimmick linear compensator.

Suppressors are fun though. Subsonic ammunition + a suppressor will never not be cool as hell. Even on pistols.

Short rifles are obnoxious without a suppressor and still not hearing safe with one, and when you put a can on it becomes the same length as a full sized rifle. Rifle cans heat up very quickly, becoming a hazard, and causing mirage.

I’ve never understood this either. I can only assume the 10-12” rifle exists only to make vehicle entry and exit easier.

Subsonic .300 BLK is cool to shoot. I had the chance to shoot someone's suppressed 7" .300 BLK AR with 220gr subs and the sound of the bolt cycling was louder than the muzzle blast. It was impressively quiet.

 

[Ass to Ass]

help me out with MP5 optics fellas. the HK style irons are the greatest to have blessed my vision. i'm putting holes within holes with them, but i yearn for something illuminated. lightweight and magnified, even. i love their prisms but no way PA's SL3x has the eye relief for something like the HKParts raised mount. should i just go for broke, say fuck the iron sights and sell enough jenkem for an ACOG? maybe a mini? would the gun itself being made by MKE matter? should i shit myself and do nothing?
edit: maybe even put buffalo bore +P+ 147gr for coyote business?

ACOGs are antiquated technology at this point with little benefit. Basically a waste of money.

not exactly but i haven't had a hands on, eyes on experience with optics that work particularly well with astigmatism other than something like an EOTECH or PA prisms.

Try out a green dot sight. They work way better with astigmatism.

The barrel is hovering just above my dick. If a bullet goes off I will surely die, which is why I’m not putting one in the chamber just yet.

This speaks more to issues with fundamental skills. Your gun isn't going to just go off in the holster (well, unless you're one of those guys that carries a P320). If your gun goes off while you're carrying it, you done goofed. Look down at the holster, clear the way with your off-hand, watch the gun go into the holster. Build this routine and confidence will follow.

Carrying with an empty chamber can get you killed. Take the time to practice and train on your fundamentals. Train, train, train. If you think you've trained enough, shut up and train some more. Training's the duct tape of the firearms world.

I think this is very dependent on someone's astigmatism, because I tried a Holosun green pistol dot and it was no better than a red dot to my eyes. I have the starburst style astigmatism. Both red and green starburst for me.

Other than etched reticles, EOTechs look the best to my eyes.

Or just carry 1 to 5 o'clock like a normal human being.

It looks like they put the Taurus G2C and the S&W Shield in a blender and hit purée

I vehemently disagree that the ACOG is antiquated and a waste of money. They have a lot of benefits that other optics don't offer, such as never needing batteries (unless you get the LED model) and their rugged construction. There was a Marine during the GWOT who took a 7.62x39mm round to his ACOG, blasting a sizable hole in the side, and it didn't even lose zero. He was able to stay in the fight and didn't even realize his optic had been shot until they had returned to base and he went to clean his rifle, which is when he saw the hole and realized what had happened. That optic was sent back to Trijicon who sent him a replacement and put the damaged optic in their Hall of Fame. I think they're a great option for anyone who wants a simple, rugged optic for a fighting carbine or PCC and doesn't want a red dot.

the only thing I dislike about the ACOG is the fibre optic which gets far too bright to shoot at range, but also the battery version exists so this is a non-issue. ACOG's are still probably the king of fixed mag. Prism optics.

If they only made a 1x version of the ACOG.

I guess that is a red dot in a nutshell but they have some sort of method for shooting at close quarters with an ACOG.

And I learned while looking into ACOGs, that there are different designs for the same 4x32 which either suits the M4A1 or the M16A4.

Saudi with protective leather sleeve for his AK. I've seen similar cloth arrangement in use with Kurdish factions, they apparently believe firearm care includes protection from exterior wear

It could be that they see it like a sword, and gave it a long scabbard.

Trijicon makes a wide variety of ACOG models, from the 1.5x compact model all the way up to the 6x DMR/GPMG model. And every model comes with a wide variety of reticles for 5.56x45mm, .300 Blk, 7.62x39mm, and 7.62x51mm. I believe the 1.5x and 2x compact ACOGs even have a more generic cross hair style reticle that have no BDC hashmarks better suited for close quarters shooting with a subgun or PCC, since those types of weapons aren't typically used for engaging targets at longer ranges, so compensating for bullet drop isn't a concern.

I've actually been considering getting either a 3.5x or 4x ACOG for my MWS308 and putting it on a quick change mount that will retain zero when removed and replaced so that I can swap the Aimpoint Comp M4 for it when I want magnification. I do have a second upper for it that has an Elcan Spectre TR scope that I plan on building up as a DMR with a 20" barrel for when I really want longer range, but I wouldn't mind being able to have magnification on the primary upper without the extra weight of a magnifier and having bullet drop compensation.

piece of tape is used to cover parts of the fiber optic.

If they only made a 1x version of the ACOG.

RX series (RX-01, et c), SRS, and the dual illumination RMR are functionally an ACOG (sort of) as an unmagnified red-dot. the whole "advanced combat optical gunsight" sort of implies some level of magnification with a reticle that allows ranging and acquisition/PID with minimal adjustment for the shooter.

 

[WelperHelper99]

Well either in a moment of madness or brilliance I ordered 300 rounds of 40 S&W. 150 is 165 aluminum case Blazer, the other 150 is brass case 180 grain Blazer. It was cheap enough so I bought it lol. I'm basically getting all the ammo and accessories before I get my sd40 2.0. Probably going to get one extra 14 round factory mag since the gun only comes with one of those, and a holster.

 

[WhoBusTank69]

Blazer

They've been on sale for months on end here to the point where shops can't get rid of their shit in 9x19, .40, or .45, I think their reputation took a major hit after the coof when everyone's ammo was rushed out the factory. I've got no opinions but I've heard they were occasionally crap.
praying for u rn

It's all range food anyway, if it jams so be it, it's cheap fodder to start my 40 horde. But thank you for the prayer lol.

Probably because someone realized the 6.8x51 is DoA and that they have access to MILLIONS of rounds of 7.62 NATO..... Hmmm
