  1. Have a permit to burn next year and an am looking to get another 1911. Need to keep it under $1000. Needs to be in 9mm. Looking to use it for steel match competition but could be just a range/fun gun. What do you all like?

    Lately I’m getting really into the idea of competition shooting, but don’t have the first clue on how or where to start.  I’ll definitely keep my eyes open for the meet and greets.  

    I started steel matches this year thanks to the recommendations of a few members here. Can’t say enough good things about it and it’s a great way to start off. Central Jersey Rifle & Pistol has public matches every month along with members matches if you decide to join. I haven’t done one yet but I hear bowling pin shoots are a ton of fun too.

    Picked up 320 from @remixer. Good people, interesting experience ( he can tell that story)

    Popped cherry last Saturday with @blksheep. Solid dude. Gun is awesome!

    Hit range this am with @Bighungry618 he can give his feed back. Ran some hornady cd through it. No issues 

    Received and cleaned.

    last Saturday 200 rnds zero issues .

    this morning, uncleaned from previous. 300 rnds. Zero issues . 

    Gun fits me like an extension of my body. I’m in love! Hard and strong like!

     

    Nice. I have 6 or 7k rounds thru mine with no problems. Solid gun.

  4. Steve at Monmouth Arms is being nice and holding onto my Dan Wesson PM9 until my permits come in. Going on 8 weeks now. Sitting on pins and needles waiting for them, hoping this week.

    It’s  the nicest gun I’ll own to date and maybe ever. So I know I’m being a bit over the top with worrying about the finish but that’s the way it is right now.

    I’m still leaning towards the Safariland 014. Saw Zeke asking about the new 7 series holsters and might go that way down the road if I go single stack “division”. :D I like the limited division, seems like the most people are in that one. Like I said before, right now doesn’t really matter where I’m at. I’m just trying not to suck and ring some steel.

    Going back to the 014. Any one share there experience with that one?

    They are divisions bud, not classes.

    Lol... I’m still new to this.

    I saw the DAA. Why do you like them better? Right now I see the safariland for $130. The DAA were much more then that.

    The one reason I’m leaning toward the “open” style holster as opposed to a kydex is I really don’t want to put any holster wear on the gun. Like I said I’m new to this and speed and scores are really not a concern right now. My 3 main goals are have fun, don’t embarrass yourself and don’t shoot yourself.

    a little off topic but has anyone had experience in blocking HexMags 15 rounders to 10 rounds?  I got 6 hexmags that I bought which are 15/30 and just sitting tight on them.  If there are cheap conversion kits that meet the regulations of "permanently blocked" i'd rather just do that than buy new 10 round mags.

    I tried this, didn’t work to well. Ended up just buying a 10 rounder.

    Get the MP44 much better rifle from the same company. Get the wood box version.

    Very cool. That might be on the list down the road.

    Right now I’m looking for a handgun for the kid in 22.  Leaning toward the Ruger SR22 but am open to better suggestions. Looking for a gun to fit a youngsters hands so am not sure a 1911 will work.

    Quandary......got a Very nice assortment of cigars on Fathers day. But...my daughter told me i cant smoke one of them , its a "collector" and cost too much ! WTF?  First I'm pissed that the guy would sell it to her with that stipulation and that she paid that, now, well.....So its a Padron 1926 series 80 anniversery. maybe a $35 stick, a little out of my league lol. Guess all I can do is save it for a special occasion like her wedding if ever. 

    Take the band off and stick it on some other cheap cigar. Smoke the ‘26. Just do it when you can sit down and enjoy it. 


  9. Very happy with mine. Did send it back for the "upgrade". Sig was awesome with customer service. A few thousand rounds thru it with no problems.

    I did recently change the trigger to an Apex flat trigger. Love it.

  10. I’m just starting out myself so by no means am I an expert. But after researching I went with Safariland brand belt, holster and this holster hanger.

    https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1016613589/safariland-uspsa-kit-adjustable-hanger-for-5198-holsters

    Haven’t used it in competition yet but holster drawing at home using my itarget setup I’ve found it very comfortable and was able to easily adjust position to where I like it.

    Yes

    The Turkish government supports terrorists and wants us and Isreal wipped off the face of the planet.  

    There are plenty of other options in the mid-size, 9mm, 15 round, striker fired world.

    Ruger Security 9

    Glock 19

    CZ P10c

    M&P Compact 2.0

    Sig P320 Compact

    We are living in good times, so don't settle for Allah's junk.

    +1.  At that price point there are many other great options as Ray pointed out.

  12. Anybody using a .22 conversion kit on their 556 AR? I plan on getting a .22 AR for the kid down the road, but am thinking of getting a conversion kit for myself. Reasons would be cheaper to shoot and stay proficient with my rifle. Not sure if there are any cons.
