IMO $100 vs $1200 is a much better deal...even with a free gun, An XD is about $500, so it still costs $700.

 

I am sure once you go they will have more discounted offers. It's $100 to "get your feet wet".

 

At $100, I would even consider bringing my wife.

I took advantage of a Front Sight deal a few years ago--lifetime membership plus a glock pistol and gear for $2000! I took the four day defensive handgun course. The only reason I haven't gone back is because I could not afford to (airfare, hotel room, car rental, etc. all add up).

 

As soon as I get over my current medical issue, I'm going to get a second job to save up for another trip out there, hopefully by spring.

wow this is expensive

 

figure a 4 day course at 2k + car rental, hotel, dinner. Gun rental and ammo cost which is gougerific, and 12.95 if you want lunch delivered lol

 

on the flip side, a diamond membership is under 99k...

 

Why wouldn't you bring your own gun you are already familiar with?

While I have no personal experience with Frontsight, just wanted to point out that they have had quite a few legal problems in the past. I don't remember the specifics of the recent case, but there was a class action lawsuit against either Piazza or Frontsight (can't remember which) that I believe was eventually settled. I'm sure a google search will turn up the info if anyone is interested. I don't doubt the validity of the training provided by Frontsight, but some of the "deals" that are offered just seem entirely too gimmicky to me. And, honestly, for the price, you can probably get better training elsewhere. That's just opinion on my part, of course.

Either way, just a friendly heads up.

Not to derail this thread too much, but I don't know why he doesn't do them here.. i've never seen him offer a handgun class in NJ. As far as taking them up in NY, I forget the specifics, but something about the gun laws there don't allow non-permit holding people to handle/fire handguns. And since they only give permits to residents, it's a no go.

The second class MDTS did in NJ in 2006 was a Combative Pistol Skills course and the 2 consecutive weekend classes we did at Buckeye earlier this year were combined Carbine and Pistol Skills. I have not done a dedicated pistol course recently because there seems to be more interest whenever the Carbine is involved. Maybe this coming spring we can do a Combative Pistols Skills course if you guys have not drank the koolaide and joined up at FS!

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
