I am very much a 1911 guy and probably always will be.

But I must say the HK P30 series is an outstanding option, I espically like the hammer fired V3..DA/SA. My P30sk is rapidly becoming my go to carry gun. I do like and own a couple of the HK VP9 series also. I really like precision and quality HK puts out.

I've shot both the gen 4 and 5. I think I prefer the no finger slotted grip of the gen 5 better, that's why I'm more partial to it haha.

When not at a range:

-Practice presentation from CCW.
-Practice reloading with empty mags - no live ammo near you (preferably in another room)
-Practice malfunction clearing drills
-Practice the above in low light or the dark

You will be presently surprised at how these actions will build muscle memory.
Absolutely! You just repeated everything I sat and heard in the classroom for 8 hours, can't wait for it to come in so I can get started! Thank you for your input

Sold the Glocks and the 20 mags.

M&P for the win. Can't wait to shoot a M&P 2.0. Grip is fantastic.
Duty weapon is a G37 Gen 4 but my new M2.0 Compact is amazing. Wish my agency would switch over.

Firearm related.
Local store cleared out their American Gunner .300 blackout.
$299 CDN for 500 rounds. ($230ish usd)
Federal XM855 for $440 / 1000. ($340usd) and I get a $50 rebate
You Americans are dumping all your ammo up here now. Thanks.

Ammo and firearm manufacturers down here experienced an eight year buying spree. Which ended last November when Trump became President.

Now they have huge overstocks and many products are simply not selling at all.

We are starting to see some REALLY NICE ammo and loading component sales right now. Some of the prices on .223 , 9mm and .22 rimfire ammo are the cheapest we have seen in YEARS. "Buy it low...Stack it high"!

We work with alot of agency and tier one guys and most are now using Glock 17 and 19's. We can shoot anything we want and for tactical purposes the Glock work really well.

Here are some images I thought you guys may like. I never post our work here but these are special for the charity events that wanted us to do something special for them to live auction. The Glock 19 Gen 5 we did our custom stippling, machined the slide, added an RMR cover, Trijicon suppressor sights to co witness when someone adds a RMR. This was done for Friday's Chris Kyle Memorial Run/Operation Valor and charity event in Dallas, TX. The other is a 300WM with a McMillan A5 stock. We built this for MARSOC Foundation/Marine Raider Foundation for their live auction coming up in Scottsdale on November 3rd. To see more of our work follow us on instagram under atacsol or Facebook under Armageddon Tactical Solutions and ATACSOL Precision Rifles.

I also use Graf's but have a Dealer acct with them. An FFL is needed for that. The top two will get You going. Selway is a good one. All sorts of sales time to time.

Black Friday after Thanksgiving may prove interesting this year! Save Your money. LOL. Good Luck.

Cabela's had (maybe still has) 7.62 x 39 Red Army Standard for $4.59/box, or cheaper than 'Cheaper Than Dirt'.

So I picked up 50 boxes to feed this ↓↓↓ (not a stamped steel receiver, NJ-compliant as is the 15 round magazine shown).


Light trigger with a bit of take-up, seems to be shooting high even though it is claimed to have been bore-sighted at the factory. But having only put 90 rounds through it at this point I'm not going to go all crazy with front sight adjustments just yet, some of it is probably me.

Right?! I read a bunch of reviews and looked up some YouTube stuff before I got it. Its really tough to beat for only $200. Going to the range to put some rounds through it.
