[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Am I missing anything? (Page 1 of 2)
Posted: 10/25/2015 11:13:44 AM EDT
Let's leave mags, holsters, ammo, etc off the table. Strictly from a weapons standpoint, do I have any big gaps?
ETA: somebody asked to see my suppressed Nagant 1895, go to page 3 Updated as of 11/10 "ghetto blaster", Nagant back from threading, picked up a USP 9 which I'm not terribly fond of, got a threaded barrel installed on the 1911

CZ-75 Yup, definitely on the list. I'd probably buy a SP-01 first though. Quoted:
Are any of those chambered in 10mm? Nope. i would love the new glock long slide in 10mm or an EAA two tone Quoted:
Quoted:
Full size revolver? Something LCP sized Sold an LCP last summer. I admit, a 7rnd 686 or something in 44mag is appealing to me. I'm thinking another .22lr host might be good. I have another .22lr suppressor that should be approved around Christmas. A gig 1911 or M&P 22 compact are on my radar. |

Quoted:
226? Dark elite or something with a threaded barrel would be cool. My collection is definitely lacking a Sig and HK full size. I did have a USP 45 for a short period but I just don't shoot a lot of 45 and it was too big for me to realistically conceal. And mag prices  I might have kept it if it was a 9mm.

Thanks guys. I'm working on a S&W 10-4 although that probably doesn't count as a full size revolver K frame definitely counts as a full size, and also a great choice. Pretty much the standard of a "combat revolver" IMO. Be careful though as Model 10s are a gateway drug. |

My personal policy is that I would never want less than THREE of my primary carry pistol. If you shoot someone, depending on the juridiction you may lose your pistol anywhere from a week or two to permanently. So, I want an IDENTICAL pistol to replace it with.....and a "backup"/Spare to that one.....So, Three pistols it is. The other thing is, you need to be shooting/practicing with your primary carry gun.
Just two weeks ago I was doing some dry practice with a Glock 17 and a chunk of the frame busted and fell off! It's at Glock right now. Stuff breaks if you use it, even "good stuff".... There are not too many more "bullet proof" guns than a Glock 17....but right now, mine is in Smyrna and not doing me much good HERE....shit happens, spares are good. And really, they're cheap as hell- any of the modern, polymer guns.... I have never paid more than $500 for any of my Glocks including 34's. They are common as dirt and if you shop can be bought cheaply, so why not have 3-4 of them? Hell, I have custom 1911's I paid $3k for.....having a pile of cheap, plastic, pistols only makes sense in this day and age..... |

Since I got you to buy a 5906. How do you like it? Quoted:
Since I got you to buy a 5906. How do you like it? Heavy, has a freakin' mag disconnect, the rubbery grips on mine are worn out, and a weird barrel profile where you can't get it threaded for a suppressor. It's a soft shooter though. I didn't want it to turn into an "sks" scenario where I could have bought it for $250 but I really didn't want or need it but then a decade later I have an itch for it and they're $750. Quoted:

I like that Beretta. Thanks. Italian turn in 92s for $299. Race hammer, cerakoted slide by an arfcommer, surplus magazines, custom made LOK g10 grips, and threaded by Morgan at Class III machining. Quoted:

Quoted: The Hi-power will get a new trigger, slide stop, sear and hammer, and sights   Quoted: Quoted: Send the Hi-Power off to Cylinder & Slide or Novak. It needs better sights. Also you can disable the magazine disconnect from both the Hi-Power and the 5906. The Hi-power will get a new trigger, slide stop, sear and hammer, and sights Here is a Novak 5903.  |
