    Nice piece, looks like it may be pinned bbl. so recessed. Is it a 3 or 4 screw? I may have a set of faux Stag grips for that.

    Bet it’s interesting to shoot it at night.
    I need a backyard range to test that night flash, but on a 80-foot wide lot in town, not going to happen at this time unless I want the police to visit me. Maybe next New Years Eve or 4 July? :lmfao:

    Not sure on the screws, here is what I see. If there are 3 or 4 then at least one must be under the grip.

    Ya, typically there is one under the grip.

    Guess you will have to wait on that night shoot. Nice gun, great find. :thumbsup:

    RAR in 7.62x39. Content on it to come at some point. In the queue for 2-gun where I look forward to the slowest time ever.

    I bet I could compete with that slowest time aspiration!

    My draw to first shot is longer than folks drop an entire plate rack!

    I put one together yesterday, after getting a frame in GB, (“don’t tell the wife”), guess what it is?!?

    Hint: It starts with the letter “G”.

    Bought a Ruger 22/45 lite and waiting for a Dead Air Mask suppressor. Hopefully get it before I grow too old. Swapped the trigger internals for a 2.5 lb pull.

    Also upgraded my Keltec P3AT with a Ruger LCP Max and a couple of 12 round mags.

    Thinking 6" new Python or a Delta Elite (deer rig).
    Have an old shooter grade E series Python, w Colt Custom shop trigger job.
    Dunno why I think I need stainless/stronger when I hardly take the other hunting.

    Picked up my first two guns ever, a PSA dagger and Winchester Wildcat. Both pretty cheap, but they've been a ton of fun to shoot. I almost didn't buy the wildcat, but I'm really glad I did, it's a ton of fun at the range. Just wish I had more mags lol

    I said I was done after the first pdp. Then I found another one. I said I didn't really want that 10mm hi-point. I bought it anyway.

    If the first 3 months of 2023 are an indication of how my year is going to go, my wife might leave me. 20230316_065237.jpg
