fatty

Of those choices and your use - I would go with the valor without a doubt. The valor is REALLY nice. I hear the 9mm version shoots like butter In 45acp, I went with a stainless TRP.

I completely agree with you. In most cases, most of us would be completely SOL.

I'm cross eye dominant too. Shoot rifles as a lefty and shoot pistols as a righty. I just learned to shoot with both eyes open and it's worked fine.

Get the vbob in 9mm... such a beautiful 1911. If I had extra cash I would've gotten either the valor or specialist in duty coat. I got a springfield stainless TRP instead and couldn't be happier.

Lambo - honestly it sounds like something is probably off with that rifle. -$300 for a NIB PTR32 is kind of.... crazy? Not trying to dissuade you from buying if that's what you want, but if it's a lemon you're kind of screwed and it's not easy working on those HK clones. I would ask the seller to at least show the bolt-gap measurement. Is the seller an FFL and a PTR dealer? The price just doesn't add up to me. $600 shipped is crazy and sounds like bait to steal your hard earned dollars.

there isn't much you can do with that kind of transaction.

^ what a lot of us have done. I run a BCM 14.5 LW upper with an anderson lower. Not 1 hiccup for thousands of rounds

Lambo if you buy it, make sure you check the bolt gap on the PTR with feeler gauges (empty rifle - slam the bolt home and press the trigger in safe direction - then check with gauge). It has to be in-spec for proper head spacing which is easily adjusted by changing out the rollers. I forget what the numbers were... Easy to find on hk forums This is something you have to keep an eye on with this type of action, unlike a typical gas operated system. Roller delayed blowback guns are pretty sweet though. Really miss my 91.

thanks for the heads up.

Can't go wrong with a S&W M&P Sport II for $700. Plus you get their lifetime warranty. I had the original Sport model and it was a fine rifle. Others would suggest assembling your own to your liking if you're up for it. It's like a lego set for a grown man with minimal tools.

Well, damn. Even more depressing haha.

I know you already have a 1911.... but.... OR The SR1911 wouldn't even compare...

That's what I'm saying... I'm at newark airport quite a bit.

You sure they weren't referring to bullethole??

Somewhere safer? I travel a lot as well so there's a good chance I'd be fighting my way home. Well, depending on what happened at least. This is depressing

Freedom munitions... - Starting at $0.18/round for the reman stuff and $0.20/round for new (115gr RN) I feel like I should support them more. I ordered a bunch of 45acp REMAN and was instead pleasantly surprised with brand new ammo. Like others have suggested - SGammo.com and targetsportsusa.com are great sources for cheap plinking ammo

getting back on topic... I'd keep most common calibers. 9mm, 223/556, 45acp. 22lr.

I completely agree with you. For me - a lot of my neighbors are complete asshats and would probably make situations worse in one way or another. *IF* if were possible, I'd try to get my family out early to a friends place or to a relatives that are like-minded... but that gets me to thinking of what and how much stuff I could actually pack in the family SUV. lol... thinking wayyyy too much of the walking dead with this Realistically I guess we wouldn't really be safe anywhere depending on the threat we're encountered with. Reminiscing on hurricane sandy... yeah... things can get bad pretty fast and roads get jammed up even quicker. This thread makes me want to bulletproof the exterior of this house and build a bunker beneath it.

realistically... if a SHTF scenario really happened... wouldn't the vast majority of us be on the road? how much ammo could you possibly take with you along with other necessities with your families?

haha I like that t-shirt!

nice pickup hows the trigger on it?

Nice!

i'm betting its a really easy fix... sorry to hear that

I was really considering buying the VP9 from you... but other guns peaked my interest sorry lol keep your listing up - i'm sure someone will grab it at that price. might just be bad timing

try selling it on armslist. I've had great luck selling thru that site. LGS trade-in should be your last resort....
