Springfield Mil Spec with Surefire 310R Service Grade Remington Rand 1911 from the CMP lottery

P226, P229, P320 X5 all in 9mm

They're made by Stoeger now. I made sure I got an original Beretta though!

I would be interested too in something decently close to NJ!

I just signed up for the Courses of Action pistol class with Johnny Primo (https://www.courses-of-action.com/products/coa-p?variant=19730202165346) in May. It's 30% off until Sunday with the code "thanks." I might do 1 shepherd and am waiting for Joe's schedule from S&T.

I'm in

If any members are willing to sponsor me I'd greatly appreciate it! Please feel free to PM me

I definitely agree. Though I will say I made the mistake of thinking Joe's Carbine I was Carbine 101 when I took it the first time. I think I actually took that class with HE and checko. It was still a great experience but definitely higher level than I was expecting

I will probably take Carbine I again with Joe. It was a great class!

Any recommendations for Austin? I'll be there in February and was really hoping to do all the CHL pre-requisites then. When I ran a search it seems like everyone's experiences were in the Houston area.

Done

I use this at EFGA http://www.amazon.com/Celestron-52229-Refractor-Spotting-Scope/dp/B001UQ6E3K It's decent on the 100 yard for a pretty cheap price.

Another option if you ever need more in the future. I've used the Kytex holders for my Glock and AR15 in classes and like them a lot. Very low profile, quick on and off, and relatively inexpensive in comparison to some of the other options. Found them via a Kyle Defoor recommendation on his blog. They're not always the fastest with shipping but well worth the wait. http://www.kytexgear.com/products-page/rifle-mag-carriers/ar15/ar15-mag-carrier/

I'll hopefully be there Sunday

I would be interested

I use a Pistolwear PT2 for my G19 with an empty chamber (due to there being no no trigger guard) when I'm wearing gym shorts. http://www.pistolwear.com/ProductDetail.jsp?LISTID=ia1321496070781 It works pretty well for me

Great video. I just saw this article posted in defense of standard capacity magazines http://www.lawofficer.com/article/training/officer-down-peter-soulis-inci Guy takes 17 .40 cal shots center mass and keeps moving

If you're looking at Tactical Tailor, they're actually running a 35% off deal on all their branded equipment in memory of their late founder right now.

13/13 but I'm studying for the MCAT

It's $9.99/box again right now. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Shooting/Ammunition/Handgun-Ammunition|/pc/104792580/c/104691780/sc/104372280/Herters-Select-Grade-Handgun-Ammunition/1305056.uts?avad=48247_c312a065&WT.mc_id=al35987&rid=12&WT.tsrc=AFF $5 shipping on purchases over $99 with coupon 82FLAT I picked up 600 last time and have gone through maybe half of them so far. Haven't experienced any FTFs in my G19 yet. I'm a big fan of the small form factor boxes.

Oops. I was messing around with the rails the other day and guess I just didn't notice when I put them back on. Thanks for catching that.

For comparison, my 14.5" + pinned Nordic comp with a 13.8" Troy MRF

I've lurked here for awhile and forgot to post an introduction. I've learned a great deal from the site and wanted to thank you all for being so informative. After great recommendations here, Paul recently worked on my first AR and it came out great! I can't recommend him enough. As soon as the financial situation permits, I'm hoping to take classes and participate in practical shooting competitions. I just have to lock up my wallet or stop visiting slickguns. Matt
