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.

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

den9 12-22-2008 03:55 PM

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

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.

enigma 12-26-2008 10:26 PM

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?

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.

alwaysinboost 12-30-2008 09:20 AM

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.

Archie 12-30-2008 12:30 PM

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]

den9 12-30-2008 10:41 PM

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!!!
