PRS faggots were the bane of 6 ARC for a bit there. Haven't fired it in a while so hard to say if ammo is still as scarce. Conceptually the idea of 6mm ARC or 6mm Max are interesting. I only have experience with the ARC round but of all the compromises either of the 6mm new AR-based cartridges make, the most damning is this: market establishment. It's damn hard to catch up to the 5.56 in that department. As I've said before, I had hoped 6 ARC would offer me an AR capable of 0-600m target engagement and still be reasonably capable of fighting in a cramped urban environment. It can definitely do the first one and even if it could do the second one, we all know for sure that 5.56 works well there, is easy as fuck to get hold of, and has a shit ton of market support.

6.5 PRC is definitely still around and I'd consider it 6.5 CM Magnum. It can run a slightly heavier bullet a bit faster, giving it a flatter trajectory out a bit farther than CM. If you're shooting at steel or paper even well into LR distances I don't see compelling reasons to go for the PRC over the CM. If you're interested in ballistic effects on live targets well out into LR distances, the PRC will offer you a heavier bullet with a better BC and a bit more velocity = fuck shit up better farther away. I like running mine suppressed as it's less disruptive to me and helps to tame the rather mild recoil.

Yeah I forgot that PRC = Magnum CM

That said I already have a nice Tikka .308.... So a 6.5 CM is just what I need

I've been itching for a short wheelgun for a while myself. I'm really liking the new Pythons with the 3" and 4" barrels. My old man carried a S&W 686 with a 4" barrel for INS for many years until they were replaced in the mid-to-late-90s by the Beretta Brigadier 96D, and I've always had a fondness for revolvers with that barrel length. They just look right.

3 inch is the best of both worlds

I have sneaking suspicion that SIG is priming the 365 family to almost totally take over the 320 family and essentially had with the newest high capacity versions.

Couple that with Ruger's RXM Glock clone with a FCU, this might be the perfect time to retire that faulty retrofitted striker fired piece of shit pistol.

Thats what I assumed when they released the 365 Macro. If its true, I find it funny they're trying to replace the P320 trashfire with a gun that still had issues with striker drag.

You know guys, I'm starting to think the P320 isn't a very good pistol!

Better striker drag that all of the 320's issues.

Even then I think only the first production batch of the 365 had it.

Lets slap all this other shit on, but fuck a flash-hider/muzzle brake.


Though I do wonder about the magazine, never seen one like that before; only the shitty promags & cludged AK-type conversions.

It looks like another shitty promag one, there's a variant with a latch.

I need some help identifying a gun:

What the hell is this pistol? The guy is polish if that helps.

kinda looks like a short barreled Tokarev of some kind. it's not one i'm familiar with though.

found it: BUSS GS-90 - https://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Tokarev_TT-33#BUSS_GS-90

although the magazine has a lanyard loop, given the nature of the pistol it's likely an older modified TT magazine.

day 85. safety harbor still hasn't restocked their MP5 tailhook brace adapters.

The real problem with Sig over-insertion is that it breaks the SERIALIZED part of the gun. Everyone who owns a different gun can just go on Brownells. Sig boiz need to send it in.

Oh it's a blank firing one, Interesting. The dude holding it is polish musician Franek Kimono if anyone cares.

...but why?

...but why?

I think it's targeting ban states. Except California. But also marketing it as "you don't need to buy magazines" will surely get some people. $400 MSRP. Definitely a good gun to show up with to a class and troll the instructor with

I wish they made it a serialized FCU and someone could print a c96 body for it

But it's like selling a car without a muffler or with 1910s leaf suspension for some reason. Honestly I see it being viable only where it's an only option, like the states you mentioned (didn't know it was THAT bad in USA lol).

Depends on the state. California would still ban this. Other states it would skirt detachable magazine capacity laws.

I wish someone would make a single stack thin grip 5.7. I think it would do well with people with really small hands. Particulary some women. And even single stack it would still have a good capacity

They have a complete ban on detachable pistol magazines now?
