Well... I knew it would happen.
Getting an entry level HG tonight for easier range access.
(The one 2 exits away is indoor outdoor but only allows slugs from the SG).
So now we can go have some fun.

Sig PS2022 9mm

Am I the only one that feels like this when I disassemble my gun and clean it?

I bought some snap caps, and I've been sitting here practicing clearing the chamber and catching the casing lol.

Nice pick up.

Same exact gun I am looking to purchase once my permit eventually arrives in the mail.

I'm telling you man. I'm about ready to rid myself of all pistols that aren't a 1911 variant and replace them with ones that are! I had never shot one before and always wondered what the hype was about. One impulse buy later and i'm hooked.

Fredds112 · 07-23-2012, 10:39 PM

I believe the Marine Corps just gave colt a contract for them to start building 1911's as their new sidearm.

Yep! 100 rounds of the Remington green box 115gr. Shot fine when I was shooting but my fiancée had a couple FTLs. I have a friend with the same gun and he said his doesn't really like the Remington as much as the Winchester White Box.

So now I'm looking to buy a little bit better quality ammo for the range. Anybody have any suggestions for better quality 9mm ammo for the range? I was looking into the Winchester 9mm NATO. Supposedly it's between a regular round and a +P, so I shouldn't have any issue shooting it a lot, but I'm want to be extra cautious with the gun.

Bought a 100 pack of Winchester 165 grain FMJ at Walmart today for $36. No issues here, I also shoot Federal when they have it, also works well.

That was after everyone on here told me Winchester and Federal was good.

I was just reading about this, NICE. I never liked the Beretta

MP0WER · 07-23-2012, 10:54 PM

Beretta makes nice firearms but it's nice to see a US Military side arm contract come back to a US manufacturer.

Damn nice looking pistol too!

Agreed!

Was thinking about getting my concealed carry so I picked up a nice little subcompact last weekend...

Coding@DetailAddict · 07-24-2012, 11:48 AM

Just picked up 2 boxes of 50 Federal 9mm rounds for $12 each from Walmart.
Great deal.
Hesitant to go winchester from my experience with their 12ga.

I saw some Federal American Eagle 9mm for $14 for a 50 round box online. Was going to buy a box or two to try it out.

Coding@DetailAddict · 07-24-2012, 12:38 PM

I'm happy with their multi-purpose 12ga so I'm hoping their 9mm will be just as quality.
Check your store first since mine had the american eagle for $13 I believe

FelixGTS · 07-24-2012, 12:49 PM

It´s impressive to see what you guys in the US are allowed to buy/own.

MisterSkiMask · 07-24-2012, 07:58 PM

Do any of you guys have thoughts or experience with the SCAR 17? I find it intriguing....and a bit spendy

It's my next rifle. Badass to the Nth degree.

FelixGTS · 07-25-2012, 04:16 AM

Well we've got quite a hard gun control law. I think at first you have to prove, that you would need a gun for shooting sport or hunting. Then you would have to get a certain license from the government which enables you to buy a gun at the store.
I am not too versed in this law, but i think it's difficult to buy a gun in the first place.
Then there are strict rules, which gun you are allowed to buy and which not. So you can't buy an automatic weapon for example.
