Oh fuck sold. I remember holding a K2 once and I was with a group of friends chatting it was mis labeled at 8k and I was like well this is dope I know nothing about it so I didn't think twice.

Later on that day I mentioned I saw it liked it but that's insane money... friend said I bet it's a typo.. Go back few days later see "sold" dealer said yeah it was 800.

FML. I need a k2.
I'd be kicking myself too. I've seen the ban-era thumbhole rifles locally for 2k. It'll be really cool if we start getting the domestic worst-Korea aftermarket addons.

SHOT Show Day 2 kinda

Ian is showing off the DSA collab with Harrington and Richardson(Palmetto State Armory), the T48 prototype US FAL. Enjoy never finding one.

Nightwood Guns, usually does a halfway decent highlight reel though he's a bit of a snob.

The Firearms Blog
Kimber has entered the 2011 market with their 2K11. And it's in .45 ACP.

BSD Fabworks, as expected, with the VSS clone. It looks much cleaner, but grinder and paint, etc.

The RB-10 Vulcan looks sweet but I doubt it's going to be purchased in any appreciable number considering you have to log into their site to see pricing.

BONUS
PSA unveiled their concept voting for the year.
 
32 is absolutely not neck and neck. 380 defensive rounds like Lehigh defense leaves wicked wound channels. 32 is a novelty and fun but hasn't had anywhere the advancement as 380.
At least in the James Revees video the salesman implied that the .32 acp was intended to be a .22 lr substitute, which makes more sense.

I guess it's far better than 22lr in terms of reliability, but it's way way more expensive. I do wish I could get my wife a full auto Vz61 for home defense I think it would be a perfect size for her. Still need to try a P90 with her. I have a suspicion she'd love it. She likes the concept of low recoil and massive amounts of rounds down range

Make sure to buy the first gen and never break off the plastic nofun tab lmao.
I've seen opinions flip flop over the years, if only because they're one of the few that bother with FALs anymore.
They started cost cutting and all the issues that brings. The inch patterned FALs suck imho since their tooling was all metric.

Everyone is focused on the .50, but i think the biggest thing here is the 10/22 clone. The 10/22 is already really cheap, and PSA is undoubtably going to make them cheaper than Ruger does. We could potentially see a future where the average joe can get a pretty decent rifle all things considered for somewhere around 100-150 dollars. Game changer.

You can get an actual Ruger for $150 easily brand new. Send the trigger pack to brimstone for $45 and you got a better than BX trigger. More options is neat but they'd have to make it better than the real thing to be a serious contender.
 
5.7 is actually about the same price on ammoseek as .32acp. .32 is a dying cartridge sadly, 5.7 is plummeting slowly in price. It's a 4 cent difference per round at the moment. I'm waiting for the day Beretta makes a 5.7
Hmmm the .32 and .380 Beretta 80s are supposedly identical except for the barrel and magazine..... So you might just get one the swap barrels and mags as needed.

I cannot imagine a better BX.... It's already something like 2.5 lbs single action
 
Shipping alone on that is $40 so we're already at $230, then we add tax (6-8%) & transfer ($25) and we end up at $270.30.
My FFL charges me $10

Y'all need to find some good FFLs lol

Oh my God
