I love the design, it's simple but very reliable. I had a Jericho 941, which is an IWI CZ clone. But it was bulky and it was polymer frame, and it didn't have a full length barrel. I found the CZ 75 in a local pawn shop. I did a trade plus an extra $130. I'm ready to start putting rounds through it. I'll probably do it today. The weather is nice.
I'll be getting a SP-01 next year :)
Unfortunately, safe storage laws mean that you have to store them in a safe in several states.

This is a gun grabber lobby but the list speaks for it self (Archive). They range from any time not in your immediate control (CA), to when a child is likely to gain access (MN), to after someone gains access and does something (TX).
"
Requires that firearms be stored locked, unloaded, and separate from ammunition in certain circumstances

When does the law apply?After child gains accessHow does the state define child?Under 17Does the state law require storage to prevent access by other prohibited people?No"

Only applicable if you have a child living with you and is probably going to be used to go after retards who buy their turbo sped adam lanza type children firearms who ten go on to shoot up a school.

That said good luck with this prosecution in Texas and defining "separate from ammunition"
 
Oh I am very familiar with the Jericho. It's my favorite gun on the planet. The finest culmination of firearms design. But only the Pre-IWI, full size, full steel versions. That was a good trade.
It was reliable and never had a jam. I did have a round explode in it but that's because the casing was weak. It almost blew the sear out of the gun. It didn't get damaged though. I liked it, it was just too bulky as a conceal carry. So I got it's Czech Republician grandfather

I've got a BUL mid-size cherokee and an IMI full size Jericho I swap between. The BUL is essentially the same thing as the early Jericho plastics, and boy was I fucking blown away how fat the thing felt compared to my slim, sleek Hebrew Hammer. I'm used to it now, but early on it was a bulky feeling motherfucker.
 
If you go to handgun hero, you can compare just how trivial the size differences are.

For example:
G19 vs snubbie, and G19 vs P365

P365 is also thinner than standard. Not much, but try it and tell me it doesn't make a difference.

Very bad idea. If you're buying it for home protection, turn off all the lights. Set an alarm on your phone for 3:27 AM. Fall asleep on your couch.
When the alarm wakes you up, pretend you have exactly 15 seconds to get to, unlock, and ready your rifle.
If you have reasons, kids, shitty roomates, etc...maybe leave the rifle out and hide the mags away, but close by.
The gun safe is for guns you don't want stolen, and guns you bring to the range you don't need to leave out.

The underside of the bed you sleep on, or the nightstand next to you is where the gun you plan on defending your life with goes.
Wife and I both have our carry pistols on the nightstands on our sides, and our rifles slung on the headboard on either sides. Everything else is in the safe.

Also, consider training with a pistol and picking one up. 99% of the time, the pistol will be on you or near you, and you don't have to rely on getting home to have a firearm when you need it.
I will continue to harp on this in the gun topic even if it's not directly related, reinforce your fucking doors (perimeter hardening section). It is the single best thing you can do to give you more time to get a gun.

Are you a Cowboy Bebop fan or a Jewaboo? They're aesthetic guns but I've never had any trigger time with one.
Is it not possible to be both? I think Spike (((Spiegel))) is supposed to be Jewish anyway.

I'm just clowning I love the show and am indifferent to Yids.

Hardcore Bebop fan. Started watching when I was way little. Grew up hunting, but was never a full blown gun autist, too poor. Mostly family and friend's old SKS, bolties, got to fire a .50 a few times. My very first purchase as an adult was the used import Jew star Jericho I lovingly bully. The beauty, simplicity and ruggedness of that jew gat led me to appreciate firearms as more than just cool guns. I have trained everyone to shoot with it and everyone became strong shootists almost the first day because of how well it works. That led me to my deep, deep rabbitholes of gun history, smithing, and overall appreciation of the artistry.
Without that (From the) Ghetto Blaster, I may not even be in this thread.

Can they run CZ75 mags or is it a proprietary design?

That's the beauty of the CZ75 design and it's derivatives. Unless it's something like a shortened grip Tan, every single part is interchangeable between all the clones. I can take the entire slide assembly off my BUL and put it on the Jericho and vice versa. I can take the firing pin from a CZ75 and pop it in the Jericho. It has IMI and IWI mags, but I use mecgar CZ mags in mine, because they work stupidly well and are cheap. Basically, if a part works on a CZ75, it works on the Jericho.

I fucking love Mecgar mags for my CZ75B.
 
the key difference between the raging judge and judge magnum is the frame and cylinder. very early raging judge models (as in dealer samples) had the raging bull frame/cylinder with a normal judge barrel but that changed for production after a few months. you sometimes find the early barrels on normal judges, but unless you have the heavier raging bull frame and cylinder (which have two latches, not just one), it is not safe to fire .454 Casull (and probably unlikely to more than once).

in most revolvers, the pressure is borne by the cylinder (which is functionally equivalent to the chamber of a convention rifle barrel) and forcing cone. the barrel itself experiences moderate pressure unless there is a bore obstruction.
I'm aware of the difference between the two. This is most definitely a standard judge frame and barrel. Wonder if they misprinted it when engraving? Cause if so, would that be grounds for a lawsuit if someone who didn't know better shot it?
 
Of course he's not. It competes with his 8.6 Blackout.
It seems to compete with 300 blackout more than 8.6
P365 is also thinner than standard. Not much, but try it and tell me it doesn't make a difference.
I’ve found a 1/8” thinner gun makes no appreciable difference to concealment or comfort, but does make the gun less fun to shoot.
 

So I came across this today, A Soviet soldier in Afghanistan with a double barrel smg. Doesn't to my knowledge match any double barrel smg design that we the public knows about. Never seen this before nor have I ever heard any reference to it. Your guess is as good as mine

One last small but interesting thing. Q LLC to seemingly little notice has publicly talked about how they have a concept for reducing standard deviations in subsonic loadings of cartridges by the creation of custom lathe turned (or injection moulded) cases with reduced case capacities (that is the "bore" of the cartridge is the diameter of the projectile, essentially creating a super thick case wall)
Discussed here from 0:45-2:45

I hate mounting scopes, no matter how lucid I am it always feels like some esoteric voodoo ritual that seems like it shouldn't work.
Mount the mount, mount the rings(fuck you Leupold I'm not buying your ring wrench), get out the alignment rods then try the other alignment rods because I'm thinking about retiring the other pair and then try the new weird alignment rods because those are supposedly better, then lap the rings because they're aligned horizontally but not vertically, put scope in rings, wonder if it's too tight and then watch it sag to the side with the heavier turret, attach levels that are probably calibrated, eyeball it for good measure and get thrown off by the asymmetry of the gun while second-guessing the levels so bring out the other pair and eyeball it some more, hope I'm not damaging the tube as I tighten the rings, pop the bolt and stare at the wall wondering if I'm looking up the bore at the right angle or not, wait until I can get to the range and bam. Somehow consistently end up on paper.

The whole process is delicate and dumb and I hate it.
 
Well I bought a Desert Eagle XIX 50AE, .44 mag really got me on some shit. Press :1: if I should daily carry it in the ferguzone :deagle:. Its just a basic bitch black for now, I will probably buy a gold one if I like it but I expect a year wait before that.
 
The regular gen 2s are cheaper without the combo deal. Throw on 10 for free shipping and then use the promo code. Art of the deal. You save $20 and get 3 more mags.
I’ve got 5 coming today.
while true it's a better deal if you just want magazines, some people might want a range bag and enough mags for a fighting load.
The whole process is delicate and dumb and I hate it.
1. mount rings or ring base to a rail section (3/8 weaver, 1913 section, et c) square with referenced flat base.
2. turn the rail section upside down and use a flattening stone set on a base to even both rings out so they sit absolutely flat and parallel.
3. check each ring for height across the flats to be the same +/- 0.001".
4. mount the ring or ring base to the rifle's receiver following the manufacturer's instruction. typical is needing rocksett or other thread-locker and torquing to something like 30 in-lb for the ring-to-base mount.
5. test fit scope to rings, check for level using a flat on the scope. if there isn't one, you can level using a strung up plumb bob in a bucket of water and superimpose the cross hair so the vertical hair matches the string. works best with high contrast, good lighting, and about 10 meters of distance. be sure to use a magnification power no higher than 3 or 4, alignment should be consistent across all magnifications.
6. verify the scope level on a flat again as in step 5, but now add another level across a flat on the receiver (typically a bolt raceway with an L shaped magnetic tool that is also verifiably square). the bubble between the scope and receiver levels should match.
7. loosely install the top of the rings to the ring bases finger tight in a cross pattern one full turn at a time. be sure to alternate between rings.
8. insert alignment rods that are verified good to check alignment. if not aligned, lap until they are, you may also opt to remove enough material for a shim.
9. install the scope again, verify level again, tighten rings in cross pattern, not to exceed 25 or 30 in-lb. if it's an older scope or ring consider stopping at 15 in-lb and verify with live fire later on. most modern scope rings do not need alignment, lapping or more than 20 in-lb. vertically split scope rings should never be lapped, lapping is purely for horizontally split rings. misaligned vertically split rings should be exchanged for a new set.

you can also forget all that noise and get a one-piece mount and worry only about rotation and over-tightening. for military equipment with an integrated mount (ACOG, Wilcox, Aimpoint, Steiner, et c) the good old M14/M60 "hand tight and a quarter more" works great, also a half dollar works great as a field screw driver, as does the back of a bayonet, edge of an entrenching tool, and so on.

I hate those too.
I just dislike the scope mounting process because the methodology is old and based upon what someone deems "good enough" in most cases. Years ago I would happily entrust the local gunshop to mount a scope and boresight for me but because I've done it so many times I don't trust them not to skip steps and go for that "good enough" point.
