  1. There are several reliability issues associated with making a G21 shoot 10mm. They won't affect you having fun at the range but they are enough to make me think twice about using it as a SHTF gun. First of all, the breechface is larger on the 45ACP slide. That means there is a lot of slop room for the 10mm rim as it slides up the face under the extractor. The 45ACP extractor is intended for a shell that has a larger circumference. The ejector is different for the 45ACP than the 10mm. Again, it should function OK, but all of these little differences add up to a reduction in reliability.

    The slide on the 45ACP is a good deal lighter than the slide for the 10mm, so a stiffer recoil spring would be called for if you will be shooting anything other than mild 10mm factory loads. I recommend Double Tap and Swamp Fox. They make true fire-breathing 10mm ammo, the way NORMA intended. :)

    All of this said, I have read very good things about the Lone Wolf G21-->10mm conversion barrel. If KKM makes an equivalent barrel, their reputation is even better than Lone Wolf so I wouldn't hesitate. All you need is this barrel and a G20 mag and you are set. If you really get serious about 10mm, you can get a full Glock 20 upper from Glockmeister.com. That is a few hundrted dollars though.

     

    Glockmeister was out of G20 uppers. will try again soon........

    The KKM conversion barrel has a good reputation in reviews , although with a steep feed-ramp........and there is the extractor bug too.

    I`ll probably just get an upper when they have it in stock...

     

    Thanks for the info.


  2. Would be interested in a 10mm KKM converson barrel.

     

    I want to make a G21 shoot 10mm...........Is this all i need? Maybe change the spring too .

     

    Or can a stock 10mm barrel do ok.

     

    I saw a post on GlockTalk that they are the same size.

     

    Just got the gun friday with a GSSF membership from BH.


  3. In my opinion, Brian is grearing up for a major lawsuit against the state. And he will walk away with a lot of money. They were fixated on him not being able to see his son for 2 years and how he will never get that time back. Mark my words.

     

    Smells Lawsuit

     

    If he does a lawsuit against the state................can we finally hear the 911 call his mom made to the cops...............which started it all.


  4. And Here he is in person. I was introduced to a guy recently who is an insurance agent and he has dinner with him 1-2 times a year......I think he goes to North Carolina for some reason....maybe owns property.

    Inside the secret and violent world of Gaston Glock, maker of the most popular firearm in U.S. law enforcement.

    He is the man behind the gun. You don't mess with Gaston Glock. His most trusted associate tried. Lured into a dimly lit garage in Luxembourg by his colleague Charles Ewert, the Austrian Glock stopped to look at a sports car at Ewert's suggestion. Suddenly, a massive masked man leaped from behind and smashed a rubber mallet into Glock's skul..............http://www.forbes.com/global/2003/0331/020.html


  6. For years now i have a belief that state of NJ wants us to all move out but they also need us to keep sending the property tax money every year even if we leave the state.

    I think that that is the most convinient way for them :icon_e_biggrin: . It`s hard to find a state in this union that acually sinks faster.

     

    If the math is right ,, do it...........train is a good idea now that we have broadband coverage.......

     

    I`ve been doing a 50mile each way in NJ for years....you numb out after the first year and a half.

     

    Best part about actually going to freedomland is that the people are much nicer and not so stressed as many Jersey folks.

     

    Whatever you do , make a decision and ACT ON IT. ( I don`t know if you have a family but as we all know that is a major factor).


  7. Great news. So it was just to appease their reciprocity states.. mostly around revenue. The states that have reciprocity want to make sure they get license $ instead of their own citizens running out and just getting a Utah.. then calling it a day.

     

    Utah rocks, being they re-worded their bill to still enable the rest of us in occupied America the ability to get a non-resident CCW. They really didn't have to do that.

     

    I read on the web that half of Minnesota has a UTAH CCW since it is cheaper than their state fee.

     

    KUDOS to OBRAMS for calling Wayne Niederhauser.

     

    I`ve seen him at a local event in Sandy,UT. The guy is very efficient and doesn`t waste time.


  8. I'm gonna be there this Tuesday if anyone wants to bust some caps.

     

    I`ll be there......................but

     

     

     

    1st time after Christmas big snow and the guy did`t open the place. I can understand since the snow was really overwhelming.

    2nd time 2 weeks ago again snow and the place was not open.

     

    Is there any way to confirm that the range will be open , you said the guy lives 4-5 blocks away

     

     

     


  9. Somtimes they will knock it down to a broken speedometer or emergency brake. Pretty much they are looking for the money, not to put the points on you. I used to live in the area and most speeding tickets ended up with a deal before going to the judge. depending on which town the ticket was issued. NY trooper will call you out before seeing the judge to discuss it. If you have a LEO friend maybe bring them along...No guarantees though. Fines are usually upwards of $100 or more with court costs.

     

    It was in Kingston when i was returning from Plattekill ,

    Never had a state trooper tell me that i need to plead not guilty, go to court with him and we talk about it and knock it as a parking or other violation.

     

    Thanks for the advice , i appreciate it .


  10. Uh - I drive through the Newburgh area all the time to go play Airsoft (Up in Plattekill). I've never seen anything there that could compare it to Camden...

     

    Unless I'm not actually driving through the bad part of Newburgh... Route 300 area... Anyone else been up there?

     

    Just got back from right there (Newburgh and Plattekill).....was there on a company seminar in Roxbury then dropped off the boss at Stewart airport.

    Since we were in a hurry i was speeding........... Ny state trooper nailed me with 20 over...........................

     

    Anyone with advice how to handle this in NY state !!!!!!
