thanks. The safety is TOUGH right now, makes me a little nervous as I cant manipulate it with my thumb easily.. steve said it will break in. If it does I will keep it next to the bed so I have a gun Katherine can shoot if she needs to. Otherwise I will sell it.

:rofl: I should get some commission from S&W!!! :mrgreen: Glad you picked one up as they are great guns. I wouldn't be surprised if you don't start carrying it more frequently as a BUG like most do.

I'll probably go sometime Saturday, but I'm not sure what time. I'm going to go in to work for a while, so it will probably be sometime after noon.

I have off Saturday but I don't know if I'm going to be able to make it or not. Dunno that I wanna part with any money right now :roll:

Yes the safety is super tough when you first get them. Manipulate it a lot and give it a good lube job and you should be good to go. Mine has loosened up quite nicely over the time I've owned it. I find myself constantly flicking it on and off when I clean it and have down time at home.

Question, if I order part 36, does it also come with part 35? I am trying to revert my 26 back to stock-length mag, and was set to order 2 of part 36 from glockstore last night, and then realized it probbably wouldn't come with the other part I need.

http://www.reviewsofthings.com/image...-parts-400.jpg

Ordered night sights (Trijicon) for the 26, if I like them I may slap a set on the 19 too. And I got on a waiting list to get the Ruger Sr1911, which god knows will take how long. Apparently Ruger only makes 40 of them a week, period.

rocknrace03 02-10-2012 10:45 PM

well today was my first time shooting guns, and i think I'm in love, i shot a 22 rifle to start and had a blast, then my friend let me shoot his 308 hunting rifle, and it was a blast but the kick was a tad much, even though i was told "thats nothin" the guy next to us was shooting some kind of semi auto assault rifle, he said it was a sks something, and he let me squeeze of a few rounds in it, AWESOME! so now I'm most likely gonna try and pick up a rifle for target shooting, as I'm not the hunting type ( hell i didn't even know i was a gun person lol) id like a hand gun, but I'm not old enough to buy one yet (19) was told you have to be 21 in pa to buy a hand gun. so whats a fun gun to play at the range and double as a tool for the pending zombie apocalypse. i liked the 22, but I'm told it gets boring quick, but i like that the rounds are really cheap, what do other gun folk say.

Smith and Wesson M&P 15-22, semi automatic, 25rd magazine, very accurate and fun. Cheap to shoot being a .22LR. I bring mine along every range trip.

here's mine

Smith&Wesson M&P 15-22 hasn't gotten boring at all! 25 rounds of .22 in about 5 seconds is fun no matter how small the caliber, and paying roughly 4cents per round means you can do it all the time.

If you want to shoot full size rifle ammo, make sure your local range allows it as many don't.

You'll probably have fun with just about anything in the beginning, so get something affordable and/or upgrade able. The Ruger 10-22 also comes to mind.

If you can shoot rifle rounds at your range and don't mind cost, definitely consider an AR in .223/5.56. Infinite upgradability and perfect for zombies!

how much do those run about, we shoot at the Pennsylvania game lands off rt309, you can only shoot 3 rounds in a clip, but my friends said he has seen people with 50 calibers, but i agree that thing looks bad ass! I'm gonna go to cabelas next weekend after i get paid, i do like that .22 ammo is cheap, i saw like 2100 rounds for 70$ while we were at dick's

Just a fun fact its called a magazine, unless youre talking about a gun that loads by actual clips such as an m1a

Can find 15/22 in a range of prices ...Mossberg makes a cheap one

thanks for the info, I'm a newbie, but i look forward to learning, definitely want to stay safe and be educated on my gun, ill keep you guys updated with my purchase, and btw, that white does look sweet!

Personally I would stay away from the mossberg one, my little cousin has one and while its nice. IMO it feels kinda cheap. The m&p 15-22 is as close to an AR platform as a dedicated .22lr is gonna get. I think its worth the extra money.

SvicksTc 02-11-2012 01:11 PM

^^^I totally agree with you on that one, however, just throwing out a cheap option...

The M&P is the route I personally would go...

InfiniteMotors 02-11-2012 04:43 PM

For a .22 there's no downside to the m&p 15-22


<--owner 2,000 rounds in
