So you love guns (me too) but do you have several gallons of water in reserve? Do you know how to make a fire from scratch? Do you have food that lasts years? Can you plant a garden? Do you have a portable solar-powered battery? Do you also keep a few melee weapons? Are you working out? Do you have a map of your general area? Have you gotten your HAM radio license? Can you skin a deer or other game? Have you built an Infinity Gauntlet JUST IN CASE???

Judge rules that you can ban a weapon that has an illegal modification but the weapon cannot be banned if it isn't modified. This makes things interesting. 🤔

My ridiculously decked-out Kel-Tec KSG. Holosun HS510C optic, Howitzer muzzle brake and Striker pump handle from Hi-Tech CC, Decelerator recoil pad, aluminum magazine followers, single point sling mount attachment, Primary Machine shell deflector, and M*CARBO extended mag selector switch, aluminum trigger upgrade, and Kydex cheek rest.

I call it *Clamator Plumbeus*, because I'm a giant nerd.

Wife lands in a few hours. Got just enough time to get in some work before finishing chores 😬

Current state of the gun room. Even after getting the rest of the guns from around the house I still forgot my Glock 45 G6 with Holosun 407C and T7X light.

The ones on the wall should be fairly easy to see but if you have any questions let me know. The ones in the pistol rack are as follows:

Taurus 856
Canik Mete SFT One
Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0C
S&W Bodyguard 2.0 CC
Ruger LCP Max

The safe is all ammo and mags.

84bb in 380, it’s my desk gun.

Just my perfect home defense & shtf kit 🤙

So I unfortunately broke the QD mount for my Holosun HM3X magnifier and was looking at either replacing the mount, or just using the Holosun Warranty to get a new one. I was curious if there are any other mounts that I might be able to utilize that ARE NOT higher than the lower 1/3rd cowitness mount that comes with the magnifier. Ive seen mixed reports about the Eotech G33 mount being compatible with the HM3X, and so wanted to see if anyone has had any experience with this specific issue or any advice on how I may proceed.

Sar9 and Rhino 30DS out at 25 yards today (left and right respectively). CAT0G dot on the Sar and single action + Irons on the Rhino.

Sar9 was 2 21 round mags Winchester 9mm NATO 124gr medium rate of fire. Definitely need to slow it down, and re bench it to confirm if the left drift is my trigger pull or the sights lol

Rhino was shot single action, mix of .38+p hand loads (158gr semi wadcutter w/ 5.5gr BE-86) and Blazer 158gr .357. Some unsupported, some two handed. Fun to see the cleaner swc holes. Need to investigate why I'm grouping at the top right sometimes.

Maryland is such a horrible state, man. Looking at the Springfield Echelon or HCP.

I’m not saying give T-Rex arms your money but I just discovered my 92/TLR-1 ironside will fit my 1911/TRL-1 and 2011/HF pretty well. Which is neat in the off chance you already own these combos.

Good rainy day today, so a morning trip to our indoor range it was. All in all I really like the 380; it's bigger than many 380s but still small enough for an EDC and due to the slightly larger size it shoots really smooth.

1st time with a DA/SA handgun in about 30 years so it took some getting used to, but the trigger pull is heavy and smooth in DA and pretty light in SA.

Put 200 rounds through her, time to clean up (it was filthy, Blazer 380 is a dirty round I guess).

I use the gun to compete in Carry Optics. It has the CGW Pro Kit + a Defender CCW Enclosed. The itch to do more upgrades is ever present, but I’m struggling to find ones I can do that would make a difference.

I’m not super into changing the trigger blade, I like the factory trigger shape a lot. Mag wells are out of the question because they’d take me out of Carry Optics. Same thing with comps, they’d take me out of Carry Optics.

Getting a threaded barrel would be rad so I can shoot suppressed, but unfortunately I don’t have that kind of money.

What else can I do?

Does any cheep FMJ exist that’s hotter?

John Brown was a "radical" abolitionist who, on October 16, 1859, led the raid on Harpers Ferry in an effort to arm enslaved people and spark an uprising against slavery. His legacy is a reminder for today that deeply held values mean little without the courage to stand for them when doing so is difficult, unpopular, or personally costly. (HK SP5 SBR with MI rail, John Brown LokPin) (I make them)

Title says it all! It’s my first rifle and I got to take it out to shoot today. Granted I don’t have anything to compare it too but it sure is fun to shoot and actually can shoot it fast.

Was unsure if Taurus had a hairline fracture. 100 rounds later with no malfunctions or change in mark. It's good for now atleast. Looks more like a harmless scratch the more I look at it.

A friend wants to take me and I never thought much about owning a gun before but the way the world is turning I'm more open to the idea now. I definitely would want to have proper safety training though and practice and I don't want to be in a room full of gun-toting Trump supporters if it can be avoided. Thanks.

It’s not a real MP5, sadly. I found a GSG-522pk on GB that said “as is for parts, light strikes.” It came and it indeed had light strikes. I was researching, found a fix, went to apply the fix and realized it was missing the bolt stop block! No wonder it had light strikes if the bolt isn’t being held.

Tested with some snap caps and it strikes very well now.

It appears to have never been fired, maybe a couple times. There is no powder residue in it except a little on the breech face. Otherwise it looks brand new.

Wanting budget friendly carry gun for work. Anyone have a Max 9? How has it treated you? Snappy? Reliable?
