  1. Love the P10C When I first started shooting I loved the hogue rubber grips. At some point, something clicked or changed and I went to as aggressive as I could get. lol. Probably due to shooting mostly in matches... the rubber and plastic grips get too slippery as your hands sweat in the summer time outside.
  2. IIRC, battery/spark. The entire bottom panel is still sealed up with tape. lol Have not opened it to check it out.

    There is the CZ75 Compact... but it is not that small. but there is this guy... https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-2075-rami-9mm-black-alloy-14-rd-mags/
  4. Most recently, these talks are essentially sales pitches for US Law Shield which he is part of.
  5. Neighbor? It's all about the windchill yo! And Duh, that is what happens when you live in Canada!
  6. will have to play with it to see, but on a smaller gun that we are talking about here, guys with big paws using front serations would generally be from the topand assuming it would cover it in some degree, or get your hands pretty close to the barrel. With RDS, why do you say it is necessary? I would think with RDS it is even easier... and I often just rack the slide with the tall rear sights or the RDS unit. yes. Playing with a full gov size 1911, front serations my palm gets really close to the barrel, only way it does now is from bottom of the gun but still seems unnatural. I would also think, since you are racking it back, would be easier from the back of the gun rather than the front serrations. Perhaps I am taking it over the top/safety wise, but especially with 40 S&W chambered 1911s which are much more prone to ejector kabooms. https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/23313-ejecting-live-rounds-from-1911/
  7. Thanks. The thing is new and never been used. Of course completely understand there may be leaks. By HVAC I meant tearing apart the condenser and figuring out what failed... can I figure it out? I am sure but at that point I would get someone who deals with it on a regular basis. Same thing for hard wiring a generator into a manual switch and plugging into an existing panel. It really is about plugging in a tank. Can we pressure test the system? Sure... just like I suppose we should be chamber checking every piece of ammunition that we reload or even buy new... would I rather a gun blow up in my face? As soon as I am done with the generator will take a look at the fireplace but... there is no long gas lines, that stub literally goes a foot into the fireplace on the outside wall. Inside, the vent pipe still has Styrofoam in it. If we take everything to the safest level, we would not be shooting guns or driving outside. =) Yes there is risk with everything and I am comfortable with essentially using the fireplace. Not installing it or running gas lines, etc. Believe me, I get and value professionals and everything is a balance between time and willingness to pay... but I am not going to spend time or waste someone's time essentially coming out to change batteries in a remote. =) All the way is about a foot.
  8. Electric ignition. =P
  9. Yes, absolutely feel comfortable hooking it up. Only part (of home ownership) I am not comfortable with is electrical work and HVAC... but this is plug and play. Was primarily wondering about if I need any other regulators or safety shut offs in between. If I can plug in a propane tank to my grill and hook it up to my wifi... I am comfy with this. ... besides, when the zombies come I need to be able to take care of the basics.
  10. ah true... but I really do think I saw something in my email box for 48 and 43x with lights... Will have to dig up.
  11. Hah, Thanks. You have been here since 2012... by now you should know we have plenty of members here who are professional and in that same line of work, including two here who are precisely in that business. Asking people here for help is a very good idea and generally better than your average "professional." There are very active members here who are plumbers, electricians, and general contractors.... on top of the endless amounts of engineers. Absolutely. Will have to clean it out but it was inspected before and seemed fine. Just wanted a backup plan just in case. But... the house is only about 10 years old... so was not messed with over the years.

    You have a CZ P10C but certainly missing the finest CZs.... a CZ75 variant. Nice sigs... sell some of those Glocks or M&P's and replace with an HK or two... Or more 1911s.... Of course, revolvers are missing... and why not add a Browning Hi-Power, Makarov, PPK, or something like a Luger? =) Thanks for sharing! Lovely gun porn.
  13. No clue. We are not fireplace people and neither was the previous owner. He thought it was a wood burning fireplace based on the gas log in it. lol. Really only brought it up as a backup in case power goes out as our heat is electric. Would rather use the generator for other stuff, i.e. well pump, septic, electronics. Outlet pipe for? i.e. gas grill? Our house does not have any gas inlets.... nor does anyone else in the development. I know, hard to believe but legit no natural gas. =) Everyone here is either electric or oil. A few are adding pellet burning systems. Overall, cost of energy here, at least electric is about 40% lower than what we paid in Jersey.
  14. Yes. There is NO natural gas anywhere near here.
  15. Holsters are already out, Crossbreed and Galco already have them. I am sure others do too. Oh, no doubt it will sell well and I would likely buy one myself, I don't see the point of a light for a carry type gun. The Glock fanboys and girls are going to go nuts for them. Having said that, for JERSEY folks, I don't think there is enough benefit to the G48 or G43X versus a G19. From the ecosystem perspective it just doesn't make sense to go 48 vs 19, especially if you can go 19 anyway. BUT... this is why I suspect Glock has chosen to make it two tone... to provided some points of difference because you sure as hell know, if they were both the same finish, folks would not be able to tell them apart, especially the new shooters. To me the biggest thing is the mag and accessory situation... and call me silly but I like the finger grooves... and the front serrations are pointless from the "safe shooting" perspective as using them, you are either cover the ejection port with your palm or have your palm exposed to the barrel... just stupid stupid stupid. From a weight saving perspective... yes... but as actual "serrations" for gripping the slide... warning signs... I don't think in 10 years of shooting or USPSA match shooting I have yet to use front serrations.
  16. Humn, wow, they are close. Great to see them side by side. I wonder how much thinner the grip is and at the same time, it is not like 10 round mags for the G19 are tough to find? Front serrations? Eh... never use them, only use the rear. The big thing is, the magazine supply and prices. For most people yes, they will not buy extra mags, but the appeal of Glocks is the direct cheap mags. As long as you are right handed, you can shoot any of the 5 generation of mags and they are dirt cheap. Furthermore, if you go out of state like many do, you are not limited to just 10 and can always make the Glock "standard capacity", or even use Glock 17 17 rounders, the 33 round mags, or even the Glock mag drums. Also... the lack of front rail.
  17. The Black pipe? That is just a rake. the thing sticking out of the house goes straight into the built in fireplace on the inside of the wall. So just needs a connection to the tank I believe.... and a tank. correct, no natural gas around here. Everyone on oil, forced hot air or pellet.
  18. So getting ready for potential electricity outages from the storm. We have a gas fireplace that was here since we moved in and previous owners never used it. Still new. What do I need to do to hook it up? On the outside I have this... So besides the tank, what else do I need? Thanks!
  19. Hey guys, working on a project for this collection effort. Are some towns requiring to print forms at home and bringing?
  20. May run out and pick up a tank tomorrow...
  21. ??? Actually we do have a propane fireplace that was never used. No clue how to hook it up, need an outside tank for it too.
  22. Thanks, that answered that. I did not know the OAL was shorter. That explains it 100%... bullet essentially sits near the top of the chamber... empty space when the primer goes off, KABOOM. I have not really spent much time with 300 bo, but assumed it was about the same OAL... That is kinda stupid that it is shorter.
  23. Actually shopping for freezers... why not a chest?
  24. In Jersey, unless you are going to supress it in the future, it just does not make sense. If you want .308 caliber bullet, just go 7.62x39 in a cheap package. Was also surprised that the 300 chambers... are those barrels that loose? Will have to take a look at the dimensions. FYI, this is also why you do not shoot ammo you find on the ground out of your stock guns, especially after matches. Too often a 9mm round at the range after a USPSA match is actually loaded to 9mm Major specs, designed to be run in compted guns. Shoot it in your stock Glock 19 and Kaboom. Just dumbfounded someone can confuse a 22 caliber bullet for a 7.62
  25. Congrats! Yep, VERY doable especially with a CZ75. Interesting, I thought it was just 1 shot. hehe, 8... should be very doable. How many others did?
