The general rule of thumb is don't use reloads (overpressure) or +p ammo. Your GLOCK will outlast you. :) Any and every handgun out there has kaboomed at one point or another.

This is a picture of a Springfield XD with FACTORY ammo that kb'ed (picture taken and gun examined by gunsmith on another forum), XD's are supposed to have a supported chamber unlike the GLOCK, so people say they don't kb in the chamber. :lol: I made the photoshop, so excuse the poor quality.

Now post up pictures of that 37!

A moment of free time used for a quickly polished barrel.[originally just dull bare steel]

this thing is amazing, more comfortable than i thought a .40 cal would be.
think i wanna upgrade to the 357 glock

u can put a 357 barrel in a 40 caliber. it will wear out the gun faster maybe, unless u upgrade the spring. on some guns atleast

and then kaboom??......

One of my presents to my g/f for xmas (it's legally hers, I just paid for it). We just picked it up about an hour ago.

Now I want one. :mad:

Nice G27!

I love those p22's, I'd like to get one soon. that 22 ammo goes a long way too.

TST range day anyone?
Now i gotta decie what iwant more, an AR, or a 30-06.

I'm down for a range day. it's gotta be on a weekend and it's gotta be at state game land #43. it's the only outdoor range that's free around here. I've got like 400 rounds of .223 that I need to fire off lol

no brainer, get the AR before prices get even more retarded.

I'm in for a range day at SGL #43. I still have to sight in my BA50.

Yeah, i just picked up a Remington chambered in 223 today. Collapsable stock, camo, looks like this- http://www.remington.com/images/prod.../lgsil_r15.jpg

French creek?
I was just up there last weekend with my dads 30-30 trying to sight it in. Cold as a mudderfudder.
And holy crap, a BA50?

a 357 sig round is a neck down .40

:bigeek: for what?!?!? and dont you already have a 50cal?

interesting

The BA50 is the 50 cal, and I haven't shot it yet, thus it's not sighted in. :lol:

enigma, how do you like that Remington? I haven't' heard much about them since they were released not too long ago, no accuracy or reliability reports that I can recall. It would be nice to have one posted up somewhere.

I need to get some pics of my recent purchase up here. Its nothing like what some of you have but I think its a nice carry gun.
I'm going to the range today at like one to kill some paper. I'll try and remember to bring my camera with me.

what do you have?

i actually started with a jennings 9mm witch is discontinued now, cant stand the thing and dont know what to do with it. i asked the dealer if i could trade it in and he told me to go to the police drop off and try to get a grocery vouvher for it![/QUOTE]

my friends dad sold his smith and wesson 45 last week for 150 bucks, dont know what model it was but im so pissed becuz i was gonna ask him if he wanted to sell it, if i known he was gonna sell it for that cheap i would of even offered double.

Offer $600 cash and see if he bites...

The mags are about $35 each though, so you get over $100 in extra value in that $700. It's not a killer deal, but it's a fair price at $700. $600 would be a great deal.

And
http://forum.pafoa.org/firearms-6/43...-5000-max.html

Offer $500 cash, and work from there.

Also, these prices obviously include the transfer fee of anywhere from $10-40.

EDIT: DOH! Just realized earlier you said compact!!!

thanks for the lookout, i seriously dont have any money at all, and if i did id probably have to hold on to it for emergency use. if i finally save some extra money im going for a 40 and 45 usp compact or a glock 26. thats been my plan for years now, although id love to have a nice rifle and scope.

One of the stores I frequent had a TEC-9 for sale yesterday for $340 in awesome condition, but I didn't know enough about the value of it to buy it. By the time I go back I'm sure it'll be gone. I had a one of the Mossberg 500 variants in my hands but when I opened the slide the chamber was all scratched to ****.....huge gashes on the inside of it. Def wasn't about to buy that POS.

Ewwww if i am assuming correctly u mean a 500 variant by another company making a copy of the 500 I wouldnt go near it, but if u mean other mossberg product they arent bad, but go remingtom 870 if ur going for a nice pump shotty for cheap, i have an old Arizona Highway patrol remi 870 that i got for $100 out the door (they will withstand MANY more rounds than the mossbergs will, and a little used you barely pay any more)

No, it was a Mossberg, but there are about 25 different versions you can buy the 500 in from Mossberg. This was one that was originally very basic but the previous owner had slapped a bunch of parts on to make it look like a different version. The parts were right, but the work was done at home and looked like **** up close. plus, I didn't want that ****ty barrel to cause a round to blow up in my face.

got it, good decision my man:cool: haha

anyone seen a decent bolt action .223 anywhere? I've been looking for something like a savage or tikka but trying to save some cash because I'm in no rush. I figure if I cant find one in the next week though I will just order it. I'm also looking for a used progressive press for reloading.

Anyway, TST group shoot? anyone want to set something up

It seemed like a nicely built rifle, but after i found out that i could only safely fire .223 in it, and not 5.56 and .223, i swapped it out for brand new bushmaster M4A3, same basic gun, only a little stiffer trigger, no full floating barrel, and all black. Plus the bushmaster has the chrome lined barrel(remington did not), and came with a larger mag(but its a crappy military-like issue). A3 sights are sweet too, once i get consistent with iron sights, i'd like to get a TA31. The M4 is a gem, i got about 100 rounds through it plinking at TM monday.

lolz

Ah, that stinks, I didn't know they only came in .223. 100 rounds isn't even through the "break-in period", keep shooting. :mrgreen:

my bf got me a nice little ladysmith - hopefully it doesn't have too much kick for me when we go shooting for my 110lb ass lol

No thanks to the lady smith. It doesn't make for a very fun plinker :lol:. On the other hand, for a concealed carry gun for a trained user, it's a great choice.

And be careful with the word usage of who got who what...certain (multiple in this case) legalities involved.

good to know. what's crazy is we live in philly near the tacoma bridge, and travel between pa and nj a lot - and in nj if they catch u with a gun, bullets or anything like that it's one year in jail mandatory and a felony. isn't that crazy? regaurdless of having a permit to carry in pa or not.

Yeah, i gotta find me some bulk ammo now.

just wanted to put it out there that im a pround owner of a new oly ar 15 as of today......... woooohoooo



as for ammo check out cheaper than dirt.com

I was at the range today. My buddy and I shoot about 200 rds of 223 though his AR and 200 rds of 7.62x39 though a RPK

what brand of rounds and what brand ar were you shooting i found a good deal on .223 rounds but when i read the customer reviews on the rounds it was split about 50/50 with great and horrible

The rounds we shoot were from a case of Remmington 223.

http://www.ar15pro.com/DisplayPic.aspx?PIC=40717

We didn't have a single problem and shot pretty well.

I usually run either wolf or silver bear through my AR. I've never had a problem with either and they are usually the cheapest online. I use aimsurplus.com or ammunitiontogo.com

got a 1000 rounds of .223 for the AR in the mail last week, after like a month back ordered

just picked up my permit today, walked out in 45 minutes, i thought it would take 2 weeks.
