Combat Auto

LOL!

anyone shoot one of these? The traditional looks better IMHO. But if it really really compensates?

There is a 44 mag 629 custom being bided (not cheap - but a really nice gun)... It has a REMOVABLE compensator...Is this legal in NJ? I appreciate it - don't have enough time in 2 hours to figuire this out myself.

Who is Osage?

I back-ordered my S&W 44mag 629 4"er...But am looking at a back-up plan if it dosnt show up before my permits expire... Any opinions on this 44mag Taurus? It looks pretrty cool..Anynoe have a Taurus revolver? Almost everything is out of stockl - but this is one of fe that are available (hum, does that say something?) Thanks https://www.impactguns.com/taurus-444-ultralite-44-mag-4in-444multi-725327351252.aspx

+1for Spacemanvic...I do not think the GunGrabers would negotiate in good faith...Their ultimate goal, is for us to give up our guns totally, and be more dependent on the Nany State...I have been asked by a very respeced member of this fourom (who I respect and like also) to not call the GunGrabers Liberals. Yes, indeed not all liberals are gungrabers - but probably all GunGrabers are Liberals/socialists...Their concious or subconcius (i don't know) belief system is that it is all about the "State". And they do not like individualism in the main. And fortunatly or unfortunatly we can not seperate GunGrabers from the Socialist/Liberal movement in this country. They are two sides to the same coin...And the biggest hypocrocy of this two sided coin is the fact that in the main (again; always exceptions), the same Gang that claims they are saving kid's lives by grabing your gun, supports about a million abortions a year...To quote the great TX Governer - IT DISCUSSED ME!...

great insight guys...After I clean this SG saturday, I will keep rounds in the mag but no rounds in the chamber...No kids - but a Cat who is always playing around - so I keep my pistols with magazine full but not a chambered round...Purest say run chambered but it is a trade-off I am willing to make considered that likely I will never need the guns in action - but if i do cock and go...My only concern with the shotgun is to make sure I do not endager my cat - so I plan to shoot any bad guys in my house shoulder/head - my cat is always at foot level or knee high at most on the coutch.

Sorry, BEAST (not Beats).

Wow, Guys - thanks for al the great insight! This would be a "novelty" gun for me - so wouldn't be shooting 200 rounds every 2 weeks like I do with my 45 autos...But I do intend to have fun with it from time-to-time....The 500m is tempting - but I do have a 44mag Marlin-lever-action carbine (it is a lite-weight Beats ;-) and very accurate) - so I'll stick with 44m and one less round to stock...Sounds like all good experience with S&W - so I will get the 629 when they are available (all the usual places are out right now).

Link dosn't work (for me anyway)

Anyone own or have own this and would care to offer an opinion on quality, accuracy, reliability, functionality, etc.? I have permits in hand and am looking to buy 1 and only 1 revolver to add to my semi-auto collection... Appreciate it!

How do you start the process for Utha CCW? Is there a link you can provide? - Thanks,

Shoot a Budies 45 first - recoil is very acceptable - it will convert you to the 45 ACP for all time ;-).

+1 on thie Got mine last Saturday with the Marpul "trim"...Took all the butt extenbsions out (there were 4) amd it feels great swinging it around (I am 5'10" so your results may vary/keep some extensions in)..First clean this saturday (Rem-recommends a full clean) and then ist shoot next week or so.

Here we go with the "personal attcaks"- put the two bullets side by side.-Dhu!

Don't get a 9mm - they are becoming "dinosours" with the smaller mags society is migrating to - Get another 45 cal --you gotta have at least one 1911...What are you going to do with a 22?...I have a 3rd bucket also - for me it is a S&W 44 mag 629 with 4inch barrel in case a bear breaks in (see my other post under amo consolidation). I looked at the 500 but it comes to a point where enough is enogh - for me that is 44mag (if I went looking for "Bare", maybe I'd get a 500 - but it the Bear breaks in my house, .44mag+pots/pans should take care of him :-)).

9mm is not as effective as a 45 for 1 shot stopping power...And with our society leaning towards smaller magazines one may argue the 9mm (big advantage) is gone...I have a similiar problem as you trying to decisde what rifles/pistols to buy...More is good just to piss off the GunGrabers but I have to practical alos with amo storage...I am totally into stopping powers so I have settled on: 45 acp for all my hand guns 12 Guage recently aquired to fill gap btwn above and below -00buck and slugs M1A .308 How is that for stopping power? (Oh yea, I also have a 44 mag - just in case a bear breaks in ;-))

Thanks, I ordered a case - felt best to get some while they are there...On-line reviews were excellent - says it has something similiar to the federal flight control/wad-watever :-).

SG Amo has a case of this and it ain't cheep - anyone ever use thi amo: 250 round case - 12 gauge 2.75 Inch Hornady Superformance Buck Shot 86246

There seems to be a 00 buck shortage - all kinds...Slugs are still available...Is it always like this or have shotguns fallen victum to the recent scare also?

It seems everyone is out of Fed 00 Buck with flight control wad.Where are you folks getting your amo right now?

My appologies, I meant 2 3/4" vs 3" (shells)...You answered the the slug side, what about 00 buck? -Thanks.

Do you Folks run with 2 3/4" slugs or 3" slugs?

I watch about 1/2 of first video (3 vid set) last night...It is very good - especially if like me a person never owned a shot-gun...I have most of the "Art of Dynamic gun/rifle/carbine" sets and think they do a great job.
