Gun range 2022,2023,2024,2025

[Czed]

Never handled or shot one of the PSA dagger's

Very nice trigger I didn't care for the sight setup
Somebody could probably get it for 200.00
Seems like a decent pistol.
I have the Ruger rxms and gforce exodus and rapture I'm good on glocks or clones
The rugers are my favorite.

They just got these cz p10f optics ready in the od Green is 30.00 cheaper than the black version for some reason
And 100.00 cheaper than the p10s that's not optics ready.

Looked at this used gp100 today

Probably get it for 450.00

I believe that GP is a distributor special and a good deal even at $550.00. If you want it then I would go ahead and make the deal, that gun will never go down in value. Alot of folks are into collecting Rugers nowadays, especially the distributor specials and limited editions, and they will pay a pretty penny to get the exact variation they want. A new regular catalog GP of any type is over 8 bills around here.

I gave my Rossi 92 .357 some exercise today. This is one of those guns that just keeps getting better as it ages and I put more rounds through it. The action is alot slicker and the trigger pull has improved alot since I got it in 2022. She wears a Lyman 66 receiver sight and .340 (I think) front sight with 1/16 white bead.



My favorite load right now is 6.8 grains Accurate number 5 under a Lee 358-125-RF lead slug and a CCI magnum primer. This load is dead on at 80 yards, the three rounds in center of the page. It runs out of gas pretty quickly after that, the four rounds on the bottom are at 100. I may try the Lee 358-158-RF as the heavier bullet would theoretically retain velocity better and have a flatter trajectory. The biggest thing I use my .357's on is coyotes. Interestingly, on my Rossi and Marlin .357 lever action carbines the point of impact and group size never changes no matter how hot the barrel gets. I would guess that is because the revolver cartridge doesn't create nearly as much vibration in the barrel as an actual rifle cartridge like .30-30 would.

I gave away several thousand.357 brass and bullets when I quit reloading for it
I'm debating getting back into it.

The striker hook is referenced to the slide in most if not all modern striker fired pistols. The sear is referenced to the frame in said pistols. There needs to be *some* amount of play between the slide and frame or the slide would not reciprocate.

Given all of that *any* striker based pistol will release the sear if you preset the system right up against the release threshold and then wiggle the slide with respect to the frame. My M&P will do this as will my 'ol 1915 P-08. I trust the M&P just fine.

My current thinking (could change) is that Sig put a target trigger on a duty pistol and accidents happen as duty hours accumulate. Also IMO the sear/striker hook interface looks to me to be more capable of holding debris than M&P, Glock etc.

IMO these Youtube tests don't demonstrate anything useful. Well - don't carry your pistol with a screw jammed in front of the trigger. I know I won't. I also won't holster a P-08 with one in the pipe or... own a P320.

The world is talking about the 320 series at nauseum but I found this very interesting

Court Records Reveal Sig Sauer Knew of Pistol Risks for Years

According to a court exhibit, Sig Sauer identified several deadly risks with its P320 pistols as early as 2017.

smokinggun.org

They pulled the glock coa from civilian sales for a reason
I'm not a glock hater they just haven't advanced to market needs I still have a few and I'll keep them
I just prefer other more advanced platforms
Honestly my 239.00 arex deltas are probably my overall favorite the only thing they share with glock is the takedown tab
Completely different otherwise.

 

[Freak007]

More P320 fun...

Oops... I see I posted old info.

A Houston police officer says his gun fired on its own. Now he’s suing the manufacturer.

Officer Richard Fernandez’s lawsuit is one of many filed against SIG Sauer.

I stopped by my gunstore and looked at the cz p10f again and noticed it's the bundle pack
It's optics ready with 3 19rnd mags,range bag and optics plate
It was mispriced at 400.00 the non optics versions they had were 499.00
This is the first fullsize pistol I've bought since a m&p .40 gen 1 13 year's ago
Really comfortable pistols with great ergos and trigger the accuracy of it and the cz p10c are excellent.

 

[dieselfitter]

That CZ P10 is a great deal. CZ's regular price is a good value. I think I might like to try a P7 for carry. I like the SA/DA hammer fire and the added safety above a cocked striker. And, the trigger is still pretty good, way better than a Glock.

Strangest pricing on any pistol I've seen
For instance online the non optics versions are like 350-352.00 before FFL and shipping.
But locally in all the gunstores the non optics are still around 500.00 with optics ready around 540-550.00
Same price as the new p09 nocturne.
The honest outlaw guy said they are around 300.00 local for him.
I'm very comfortable now with striker fired pistols
I wish they'd all take the smith and wesson m&p route and offer thumb safety versions
I really like using them as thumb rests not necessarily as safeties
I really believe the p10 series is the best
For the money.

Wildly different prices online that was the only mention of the range pack I could find.
At my gunship the Black version range pack is 429.00
My od green was 399.00

Good deals at rural king

I chronographed my load of 6.8 grains Accurate no.5/Lee 258-125-RF through my Marlin 1894C and found that this load effectively duplicates the good old .32-20. No wonder my rifles like it so much!

Low: 1216

Does anyone have a colt python? I've wanted one since I was a kid. I've never really been able to pay that much for a gun at one time. But since I'm 62, I figure it's now or never. Just curious if anyone has any first hand experience.

Too rich for my blood but I've got friends that have me shoot 2 of them
Both blued 4.25" and a 6"
Excellent revolvers very comfortable and accurate.
I stuck with my 300.00 ruger security six's
And gp100s
But would like to have a python or a
4.25 king cobra.

I go next week to find out if my cancer is coming back or not. If not, I think I will start the search for a 6" stainless one.

I hope you get through it ok and you're all clear

anymore I just buy what I like
why not I've worked all my life why not enjoy it.
really don't know what I'm after next
The new ported pistols like the echelon,p10c,canik mete,rost martin and m&p are Interesting
Also one of the 2011s no idea which one might be nice
Mostly looking for the m&p 22x I like a good .22 semi auto
