Phooey! My first gun was an HK P2000 LEM. Sold it to one of my partners at work when we got Glocks. I have to carry a Glock for work. I won't buy another HK until I retire. My next pistol will be another G35 (Glock number 6) that I will chop to G23 grip size for CCW with my RMR slide.

The more I see that 870 fore-end mod the more I like it.

Also, if it's for two people there should be two bags. Every adult carries their own load and supplies and equipment should be shared/split. Of you carry everything and something happens to you, then what?No holster for you!!Who else is going? Interested in the 3gun format for this comp. Anyone done it before? What is needed ammo wise for each gun?Good find and good price!I think he and Mr. Eastwood give it nothing less than their very best. Looks good. I will be taking my squad to see it for sure!I put my EOTurd on mine. I only use it for training and an occasional .22 competition so I won't care when it shits the bed on me again.I'll give you $1 more than Checko will payOne of they guys at work has one. It is much more "shootable" than my LCP. Better sights, much better trigger, and the larger size makes it more controllable; but the LCP better fits my needs for a .380 pistol and the way/reason I carry it. I do like the updated LCP with updated "real" sights. Mine has the vestigial nubs that are barely useful which makes qualifying at 25 yards a but spicy. The S&W Bodyguard is very nice. More shootable than the LCP - comparable to the G42 - but closer in size to the LCP. If I didn't already have the LCP when the Bodyguard was released, I would have gotten that instead. If I could find a way to trade for one I would, but when it comes down to it, I don't need or want to pistols in .380ACP. My advice, the G42 is a nice shooting .380 pistol in a compact package. Reliability is still unknown as it is a new item, and there were early reports of some issues - but those have dried up. But if you are planning to use this as a carry or self defense piece, I would wait for the G42 sized 9mm that's rumored to be released next - same size, same capacity, but fires a cartridge with tremendously more effective terminal ballistics. I am eagerly awaiting it's announcement and release. I am still flummoxed that a .380 ACP single stack subcompact Glock went into production prior to a 9mm in the same configuration and size. IMO, if the gun is gonna be that size, it should be chambered in a more useful caliber.ETA: Oh and this is straight up what I want, no need to mix and match parts - The AAC Honeybadger PDW in .300BLK with long handguard:You weren't getting much traction in this thread so I asked around some of my contacts, including some big name trainers that see hundreds, if not thousands of student a year. No one I know has seen one, and very few have heard of it.... I call that a clue. I know that's not the answer you were looking for. Anyway...... Go DI!!!Thank you! I heard back from Ron today. The ball is rolling.....Also, Would you mind posting some photos of your carbine and a quick review of specs and reliability you have experienced? Thanks again for indulging me.Excellent! I have an email in to Ron as we speak. Waiting anxiously to give him my $$$$.If you are only a few miles apart, Motorola Talkabouts work decently. Not great, but decent. HAM may be great but it's a big investment in equipment and licensing.Shane, that's the video I was telling you about a few weeks ago and I couldn't remember the guys name at the time. He is partnered up with T. Haley. Ron Avery definitely understands the "WHY" and he can convey it to students in a well thought out manner that gets results. He combines his knowledge of "How", "Why" and "When" with applicable and useful drills that gets you to improve. He is one of the trainers out there that when he talks, I listen - because I am guaranteed to learn something. Check out his trigger-stripe drills for diagnosing recoil control. Very cool.That's the story I linked and quotedSo claiming combat experience in AFG as his creds but actually going AWOL prior to deployment instead is "no big deal"? Do you think someone with that kind of character flaw would be a good instructor? I don't care who he endorses or not. My problem is an integrity issue, on multiple levels. Not to mention that while he can shoot, he doesn't really know what he is talking about. Personally, among other things, an instructors background - and their honesty about it, absolutely makes a difference. There is a why behind every how. Without real world experience in what you are teaching the why usually gets lost - making the training less than what it should or could be. Think about trainers in your profession - the folks that only have "book" or theory learning are not usually the best ones to get the job done or train the guys who are.Note: All links are cold (replace DOTcom with .com) to prevent any cross forum shenanigans. I knew something about him bugged me and it wasn't just his association with Yeager *spit* He just teaches shit he learned from other instructors with no understanding of why the TTPs he teaches should or shouldn't be used and passes himself off as knowledgable. He's personable and has a hot wife. That's it. The proof to me that he really does not understand gunfighting at all and is merely shooting is apparent in his incessant need to speed the damn safety on at the end of every drill. It drives me up a god-damned wall. He takes himself right out of the fight before it is over every damn time. Apparently this all started with a thread on Snipers Hide: http://forum.snipershideDOTcom/training-classes/263930-corey-alan-jackson-range-time-terre-haute-indiana-stolen-valor.html The Lies and Stolen Valor: Cory Alan Jackson, of Range Time http://sofrepDOTcom/36718/stolen-valor-cory-alan-jackson/#ixzz3Ea0bgkgn The article at the link contains a lot more info all with links and sources. Frankly it is just too much to put it all here. Full Disclosure: I admit that I would occasionally watch some videos but mostly for: Oh, and this made me giggle:
