Misc Firearms Crew LV: Come for the Guns, Stay for the Grammar Lessons

[Bft12890]

I'm up in northern DE, and can pretty much walk right into PA

Ayyyyyy DE. Where do you usually go, ohmalandan/target master??

I haven't, how is it there? I've heard many different reviews

It's not bad, $10 a visit or $50 for a year long pass. 100 yard rifle range, 25 yard pistol. Both are covered where you stand, targets aren't covered (you also have to bring your own) also 2 open spots for shotgun skeet shooting.

[GingerBrah84]

Was the dude I tried to put you in touch with any help at all?

Haven't contacted them yet. I'm really trying to find something local first. Think I might have found something other than a Subaru though.

Well, what is that something? And what are you going to do w/ ur Heep?

[Rooled]

Completed my lower today, and got some CA legal 10/30 mags. Much Excited. I'll post a picture of my guns tonight =D

Missed training yesterday because the gym was closed due to the 12" of snow we got. Finally made it in today, crushed 290x6 paused on bench...was supposed to be 4 doubles at that weight but I combined the last 3 sets

Tomorrow is gonna suck tho...squat/bench/dead on two consecutive days is rough

[jarryd2018]

Just loaded up some 77 gr Nosler boolits to see how I like them. I need to dial in an accurate load but these should shoot pretty well based off load data.

They chamber in my wylde gun too so that's a nice attribute.

[Steak_n_Taters]

So my LGS has a used 3rd gen Glock 20 (10mm) for $500.00 cash, out the door (taxes included).

I checked it out thoroughly and it looks like it's had MAYBE one mag through it. Really it looks like is has possibly never been shot, but it's in the used counter.

Comes with standard Glock sights and 2 mags.

I've wanted a 10mm for a while but can't really justify it. It would honestly just be a "my pistol is more powerful than yours" gun.

But the price seems really damn good. $500 OTD for what looks like a brand new Glock. Of course I'd have to get a light, better sights, at least 5 more mags, and holster for it so tack on $400 eventually.

Should I just say fuk it and get it?

ETA: Bought 3x 80% lowers today lol. BRB ghost guns.

[Ikeman83]

I have MBUS Pros, I can take a video of my daughter pushing it against something showing how little effort is needed to fold them if you are serious. I thought you had some Pro LRs, though, you should realize that they are a backup sight and part of the tradeoff you experience when using them is that they don't tend to be as robust as a dedicated "fixed" sight like the DD. I wouldn't bother continuing to argue over this, but I'm surprised that you're standing your ground on this one.

Another example I might point out is like dropping a rifle or having it leaned up against a wall or something and then it sliding into another wall and collapsing the sight. If you were running the DD, you'd pick up the rifle and go. If it was the MBUS Pro, you'd need to flip the sight(s) back up.




Was the dude I tried to put you in touch with any help at all?




As far as I know, they've resolved their issues. I don't have any of them, though, just going by what I've heard/read, amigo.

I have the LRs. If I drop the rifle, they'll only fold if force is directly applied at the tip of the sight in the direction of the fold.

Will the DD fixed irons fold under that same condition, no. How often are you dropping the rifle such that force is only applied directly rearward on the BUIS? Kind of ridiculous.

it's a good price, though you may be able to find better prices. I found a new one on sale in Dec for $540.

Add sales tax, at least in Texas, and that's $585 out the door.

Well that's annoying

So the price is good by like what $100 vs what a new Gen3 10mm should go for. Usually figure $550 from a decent LGS for that + sales tax. Consider what continually feeding it ammo will cost. That $100 or whatever on the gun itself is trivial at best to the ownership cost of the pistol (gun, mags, sights, holsters, AMMO...)

Well, I guess that settles the decision on where the next patch goes.

good to know; fingered one today at the LGS

reloading bras

how did you secure your press to the table top? lag bolts? just screws?

I'm planning on laying a piece of plywood onto a cheap bistro table we don't use and attaching that with screws then attaching the press through both - good enough? or should I build a real bench?

Not sure what the bistro table looks like, but why use the plywood at all?

If the table is sturdy that should be fine. At my old apartment I had a tiny little reloading setup and did pretty much the same thing, just laid a piece of plywood across the top to re-enforce it and drilled through both to mount the press. But if your bench is easy to tip over, you'll probably get annoyed pretty quick.

been mostly going to Targetmaster since I've only been doing pistol for the past few months. Occasionally go down to elk neck for rifle, but the fudds there usually make the experience not worth the 50min trip.

Buy it. That 10mm is hnnng!

god i was so close to buying a glock 20 just out of curiosity. then I thought 500-600 bucks was a lot just for curiosity. especially when its 60 cents a round

Is it louder than an AR15 on the range?

[rtm0004]

Not sure what the bistro table looks like, but why use the plywood at all?

it's cheap soft wood that I feel wouldn't stand up to the pressure

It won't tip; it's about 3 or 4 feet squared high top table - maybe that's not a bistro table, I don't know

It's loud AF on an indoor range, about on par with .357 Mag.

Negative. 5.56 is louder than 10mm, to me. Rifles are rifle.

But a short barrel hot .357 mag is pretty loud.

I left some simple syrup out on my bar a few days ago. Safe to consume still?

I think it's been there since Monday...
