High Exposure

I do this a lot. Never had an issue.

Yeah man! Now holster and mags!!!

This is 100% wrong Ray. Just because that is how you would treat these two guns does not mean that is what they were built to do. The truth of the matter is the RIA is built for the recreational shooter that may put 500 rounds a year through their gun and kept in the safe the rest of the time. The Wilson is built to be more robust and more reliable over a longer lifespan. To be “used and abused” as you say, by people that fire thousands of rounds (if not tens of thousands of rounds) a year. Lets take Shane’s scenario a step further - you have the two 1911s on the table that you can use to save your life. One Wilson and one RIA. They are both beat to hell. Dinged up, scratched, covered in sand and mud. I mean, really, really beat to hell. Looking at the two guns, you’d be surprised if either of them work at all - but it’s all you have: Which one do you grab?

Doesn’t make it untrue.

Yes, Aimpoint and Trijicon are expensive. No, they are not overpriced. As with most things, you get what you pay for - and no, I’m not referring to just the name stamped on the side. When shopping for anything, best value is the goal, not lowest price. And in my opinion, you get the most for your money with AP and Trijicon. You may pay more initially, but generally your money will go further before it all shakes out. I just traded an Aimpoint Pro for a Trijicon MRO. I’m excited to try it out. First impressions are positive - clear glass, no noticible magnification or distortion, crisp dot, uncluttered view, nice controls. Retail cost is between $370 and $430. That is pretty competitive with some of the “cheaper” Primary Arms Type optics. That being said, Holosun is growing on me. I bought a T1 clone (can’t rememebr the exact model number now and I’m not home to run down to the basement and check). I put it on my PCC 2 years ago and other than a slight issue when conducting an initial zeroing (the dot didn’t track - I had to bottom out the adjustment knobs for windage and elevation before the dot tracked with the clicks) I have been unable to break it. I am looking to get 2 more for other project guns. I am not at the duty/HD/SD level of trust yet, but I’m getting there. I will it’s that a few other guys that I know - and whose opinion I hold in high regard - are using them on duty and SD guns with no hesitation. In my line of work, that’s a clue.

No end-users call it a “series”.

Never had the class. Pat passed before I could attend. I ended up unloading the parts I had amassed and going back to straight AR platform.

Nope. ALS for a G19/23 with TLR1/X300U. 7TS holsters we’re not out yet. They are not a series. It’s a model number.

Yup I have. In fact I bought a Safariland holster from him.

Currently - I don’t want to go back to work tomorrow. I could use another day off.

Yes.

I got to mess around dry fire with all three a few months back. There was also a VP9, M&P 2.0 and my Semi-tricked Glock. The CZ has the nicest feeling trigger of the bunch.

Bullshit. Practice makes permanent, not perfect.

Necropost alert bit it is relevant - (cold link below, replace DOT with .) https://wwwDOTreuters.com/article/us-dicks-sporting-results/gun-policy-under-armour-weakness-hit-dicks-sporting-sales-idUSKCN1LE1CQ Gun policy, Under Armour weakness hit Dick's Sporting sales (Reuters) - Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS.N) reported a bigger-than-expected drop in quarterly same-store sales on Wednesday and forecast further declines this year, hit by tighter gun controls and a drop in Under Armour sales. Shares in the company fell as much as 10 percent after it posted a 1.9 percent drop in same-store sales, bigger than analysts’ average estimate of a 0.62 percent dip. Dick’s was one of the first retailers to stop selling assault rifles and high-capacity magazines as well as bar the sale of guns to people under age 21 following a massacre at a Florida high school in February. The company had predicted that its hunting guns business would be pressurized by the change in policy but said the move should also attract more people to its stores. Dick’s said on Wednesday it expected annual same-store sales to decline by 3 percent to 4 percent, compared with a 0.3 percent decline in 2017. Chief Executive Officer Edward Stack said Under Armour sales fell as a result of the sports apparel maker’s decision to expand distribution to a broader range of stores. Shares in Under Armour Inc (UAA.N), for whom Dick’s 700 stores have played a major role in efforts to challenge Adidas (ADSGn.DE) and Nike (NKE.N), fell 6 percent to $19.66. “We had expected comp weakness in hunting and electronics, as well as continued pressure in Under Armour and less benefit from store maturation, but these trends caused more pressure than anticipated,” Telsey analyst Joseph Feldman said.

It raised its earnings per share forecast for the year ending February 2019 to between $3.02 and $3.20 versus an earlier forecast of $2.92 to $3.12. “The improvement in the U.S. athletic market should overcome the weakness in hunting, electronics, and Under Armour as we get into 2019,” Feldman added. The company’s net income rose 6 percent to $119.40 million, or $1.20 per share. Analysts had estimated $1.06 per share. Net sales inched up nearly 1 percent to $2.18 billion, below the average Wall Street estimate of $2.24 billion.

Slip 2000 EWL That’s all you need.

+2 for the Desantis Nemesis. I have one for my Kahr PM9, one for my J Frame and 2 different ones for my Riger LCP - one for a regular front pants pocket and one for a cargo pocket. Great little pocket holsters.

Yup ”Made in China”

Botfly.

Bunch of savages in this forum.

I always liked a pool sign that I saw at a friends house when I was a kid that said: ”Welcome to our _ool. Notice there is no P in it. Please keep it that way.”

How do you eat Weiner Schnitzel without lemon or lingonberries? Doesn’t that break your food rule? You didn’t save me any.

Get them up against the wall.

What do you mean “you people”? Monte Cristo is good! Need some maple syrup for dipping. Mayo on fries? Oh lord

“My culture is not your culinary option?” Griz, you going liberal on us?
