I'm running my Vortex PST 6-24.

I have one. Rainbow. Wanna borrow it sometime?

Life Hack: How to fly with a rifle and NOT pay oversized charges.

Working on it...

Another shot. Chamber rough in. I was so busy paying attention I really didn’t take any pics. I’ll take some when I get home of it all before I screw it together. Ill be hitting it with BBQ black for the “season” and breaking it down this fall for a real paint job.

Dude, you have no idea.

Not quite yet. @Zeke

Negative. Your ignorance has led you to believe so. It is not.

You need to look into machining videos on YouTube and Instagram. With the capabilities of CNC 4 and 5 axis machining and Wire EDM, it's totally possible. It would just be more than you and I would be willing to spend, most likely.

I totally think they could re-create the Python. Honestly, they could make it better than the original. Problem would be cost. I've not taken this apart, and I don't plan to, but apparently they need a bit of hand fitting to work smoothly. That hand fitting adds tons to the cost of an item. Think Toyota Camry vs. a Koenigsegg 1:1. It could be done but the cost would be considerably more than a PC Smith and less than a Korth. More than many would spend. And the bluing...

Another first...

Thanks. I’m hoping to get it to the range on Monday depending on how tired I am.

Thankfully it’s all inside. Im looking to be thoroughly exhausted by Sunday night from absorbing tons of info.

I would argue that law abiding firearms owners aren’t the only ones that are losing something from this FBI screw-up.

It's just amazing to me that he is pushing for laws that will be completely ineffective. These politicians should be looking inward at the electronic infrastructure that allows/disallows people to purchase firearms. The FBI should be stepping up and saying "We made another grave error and we need to fix the NICS system right now." But we, on this board and others, know that that isn't going to happen. I said it before, and I'll say it again, if any of the firearms rights groups wants to REALLY do something, they should have a political wing that brings up grass roots candidates into the statewide spotlight. That's what I think we need and I would give what little money I have to a group like that. However, so far, it's not something I see happening.

I'm leaving Friday after work. I can't believe that it crept up this quickly. To say I'm stoked would be quite the understatement.

@Rob0115 The law in Illinois seems to make it clear that they cannot sell standard cap. mags to anyone other than LEO/military. Sec. 54-212. - Assault weapons, and large-capacity magazines; sale prohibited; exceptions. (a) It shall be unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, offer or display for sale, give, lend, transfer ownership of, acquire, carry or possess any assault weapon or large capacity magazine in Cook County. This subsection shall not apply to: (1) The sale or transfer to, or possession by any officer, agent, or employee of Cook County or any other municipality or state or of the United States, members of the armed forces of the United States; or the organized militia of this or any other state; or peace officers to the extent that any such person named in this subsection is otherwise authorized to acquire or possess an assault weapon and/or large capacity magazine and does so while acting within the scope of his or her duties; (2) Transportation of assault weapons or large capacity magazine if such weapons are broken down and in a nonfunctioning state and are not immediately accessible to any person. (b) Any assault weapon or large capacity magazine possessed, carried, sold or transferred in violation of Subsection (a) of this section is hereby declared to be contraband and shall be seized and disposed of in accordance with the provisions of Section 54-213. (c) Any person including persons who are a qualified retired law enforcement officer as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 926C who, prior to the effective date of the ordinance codified in this section, was legally in possession of an assault weapon or large capacity magazine prohibited by this division shall have 60 days from the effective date of the ordinance to do any of the following without being subject to prosecution hereunder: (1) To legally remove the assault weapon or large capacity magazine from within the limits of the County of Cook; or (2) To modify the assault weapon or large capacity magazine either to render it permanently inoperable; or (3) To surrender the assault weapon or large capacity magazine to the Sheriff or his designee for disposal as provided below. (Ord. No. 13-O-32, 7-17-2013.)

Same here. So far.

I've actually lost count of the amount of reasons that I'm not terribly fond of you.

I have a 686+ 3" and after a few hundred rounds the trigger smoothed out really well. I'd buy it over a PC any day.

If they’re as “nice” as the Cobra, I’ll hold. And they’re broke if I remember right.

If you get up this way and want to shoot my CZ, I'll bring this along as well.

I would personally grab that 627. Of the two you posted, it's what would catch my eye. Good luck.

Gotcha. I had a Canik. It’s a CZ clone. Honestly it’s not in the same league. I’m in Bergen Cty. If you want to shoot my P-01, let me know.

They shouldn't.
