Seriously, this ^^^^^^. While I too would recommend starting with the goldilocks 4" 15 round polymer pistol or your choice, NOTHING matches putting a mag down range to develop an idea if a pistol is right for you.
This too happened to me, also with a Winchester branded safe. I was very lucky that I was able to get it open one last time before the digital lock failed permanently. Sergeant Greenleaf went in to replace it, and I think I will stick with mechanical locks from this point forward.
A laser trainer cartridge, and a barrelblok magazine cartridge https://bloksafety.com/ provides a safe and repeatable training environment.
I will use all three of the cartridge simulators for mag changes, along with the laser cartridge and the timer. Helps build solid skills.
I wrote about my experience with a Holosun HE509T on an M&P 5" 2.0 in another thread.
The first 509 survived a mount failure, release from the slide under recoil, struck my head, bounced off and flew through the air for 12 feet, struck a sheetrock wall, and dropped 6 feet to bare concrete. The...
My wife purchased me a Teslong borescope for Christmas. I spent days cleaning "clean" bores and chambers. The Garand chamber had a nice carbon ring that took quite some time to remove.
Really disappointed in a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 Pro Series 5" C.O.R.E. Really poor engineering with the plastic adapter plates. The action is not as smooth as my broken in compact. The trigger, while different than the compact is arguably not "better". Smith and Wesson's customer service has...
I purchased an M&P M2.0 5" Pro series model 11828 UPC 022188871388 in December, as the intended host for a red-dot. Prior to purchase I had concerns regarding Smith & Wesson's use of plastic optic adapter plates, but was assured they did not carry loads and were therefore a non- issue.
The...
I had minor may issues until I changed my loading procedure.
I know looks a single round at a time with the follower manually pulled down so that the round just slipped in. I then poison the follower up and back down before paying the next round.
I found the above technique aligned the rounds...
Gunny, outstanding!
How accurate is your TX22. Mine is on its second barrel, and no longer leads, but it's marginally accurate. It appears to keyhole a round one in a while as well.
Received a Teslong scope. Now I have three rifles to clean!
Used a relatives gift certificate to my home range to get an Uplula. Got tired of blood blisters.
He did not hurt anything. On any quality pistol a human being is not going to generate enough force to bend, break, or stress the metals involved.
On nearly all modern semi automatic pistols the slide at full recoil is going to impact the stop built into the recoil spring assembly. Only with...
