I can get 13 rounds in but it's tight and you really have to slam it hard to get it to seat in the pistol.
And 13 + 1 is even tougher it seems. I have been leaving my mags fully loaded since I got it with the hopes they will loosen up some.
That is the one thing I'm not crazy about with the...
On my third Shield. Still have a 2.0 and a Plus model. I went from a snubby to my first Shield. Owned, shot and carried it for years then decided to sell it. I immediately regretted it so I bought the 2.0, this time without a thumb safety.
Then when the Plus came out, I though I may as...
A big block was a stretch for these but a small block dropped right in. Fit nicely. Rumor was the car was designed to hold a small block. Not sure if it's true.
Welcome from a fellow who also lives in Bloomington but not from Bloomington.
If you have a tough time finding like minded people around here, I am available at times for a cup of coffee or a beer and to talk firearms and/or reloading. Though I don't load rifle...
I'm older than some here...
I was going to sign up but just was told yesterday that in 90 days my job will end.
So no spending money until I have something lined up. Looks like you guys are getting good participation! Carry on!
Yeah, I won't rack my slide on anything, I just mentioned it. I am typically careful with me stuff overall. For some things I have to remind myself to use a little force like hitting the bolt release on an AR vs gently pushing it.
I did a few reps today. It's a little strange feeling to me...
Before I just go to the big box and buy some lumber to re-deck my utility trailer I am throwing this out in case someone here has some wood laying around that might work.
I am looking for 11 pieces of 2x8x12' boards. I could do 2x6's but I would need more than 11 naturally.
Pressure treated...
I went through this a couple years ago when I decided to "optimize" my firearms. I went too far but it is what it is now.
As far as my AR, I replaced my Anderson upper and lower with Aero's M4E1 stuff. I replaced a Leapers handguard with the Aero Quantum handguard. I replaced a Leapers fixed...
I will play around with tilting the pistol inboard to rack with an overhand grasp. Providing that is what you mean by "inboard".
I have been told before that about loosening the dot by grabbing it. I have a hard time thinking that is a reality when the recoil of the slide when firing is much...
I was using my support hand to drop the slide on two of my pistols. Worked great. Then I bought a pistol where I couldn't. So I was losing time dropping the slide one way and another depending on the pistol.
I have gone back to overhanding everything. And with most of my pistols having a red...
