The Official 2nd Amendment Appreciation Thread

Bought a Henry .22 lever action yesterday for the eldest grandson. I think he'll be quite surprised and happy when he gets it this summer.

 

[WallyBalls]

I have the FN P90 and the Keltec P50 as well. The more 5.7 guns, the better

How have you liked the P50?

Its just so damn weird I almost want one...

It’s a cool little gun. Mostly because it shoots 50 rounds and the 5.7 has very little recoil.

If they ever unf*** the brace rule, I have the attachment to where I can put one on

That just answered my next question. It looks perfect for a little brace…

Any issues with feeding or anything?

I haven’t shot any 5.7 since the early, early FNs came out and FN was the only ammo you could find. But I really enjoyed it. Now that its more reasonable…definitely makes it tempting.

I haven’t had issues, but I only use my FN mags. I haven’t used the knockoff it comes with.

Sounds like its worth a friday of OT...

I say go for it.

On the mag that comes with it, I’m sure it’s fine but I usually stick with OEM or P Mags for everything

Ran an IDPA competition on Saturday. First one with my Glock 19. I’m glad idpa loosened up their rules and allowed weapon mounted lights and appendix holsters. It was cool to run a setup that I actually carry.

As always, I was quite slow, but I was surprised by my accuracy. I did not expect to shoot it as well as I did. I may get it milled for an optic at some point.

Good deal?

If it fits in my 92FS holster, I might be a player here.

So I bought an Sig M18.

@YankeeVol your thoughts?

I like Sig.

I despise the M17 (I assume the M18 is the same), for a few reasons.
The military one has s*** polymer (I’d hope the civilan version is better). Plus, I don’t like a manual safety (for a defensive type pistol).

My M17 is my favorite handgun. Romeo 1pro and it's a dart.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

wow!
Henry getting into revolvers!

 

[YankeeVol]

Finally got around to picking up the 5.7

 

[YankeeVol]

By far the "greasiest" gun I've ever gotten. This thing was SLATHERED

 

[YankeeVol]

That new S&W FPC is probably getting added to the collection

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Saw that Palmetto State has a closeout on CZ Shadow 2 for $999 while they last

It will be interesting if that gun likes to run with more lubricant than traditional browning tilting barrel guns. From what I understand the Beretta PX4 needs to run a bit more lubricant for reliability and it runs the same rotating barrel delay system the Smith does.

Anybody carry an Sig 365? Thinking about getting one. I know there are several variants but I’m looking at the base original.

I currently carry a S&W MP 2.0 but find it a little bulky and usually only carry it with 8 rounds instead of the full 12.

I did the XL model for a couple of years. Perfectly fine.

Anything you didn’t like about it? I’m looking for something easy to conceal, inside waistband.

I’m really good with my M&P but I’m just about over carrying it. Looks like the 365 is smaller profile and lighter.

If you’re looking for a good subcompact the hellcat is up there. That’s what I carry most of the time.
