Is this program still being worked on? I went to his site and saw some posts in the forum, but don't know for sure. Thought someone might know him or heard somewhere else. Thanks.

Inebriated good point for the OP; I also got to shoot the G17 Gen4 April 1st and while the ergos changed a little bit, I think it was much more comfortable than my G23 Gen3. Granted a full size should be better anyways, but the new Gen4 feels much better in my hands though. Mine however had a...

I owned a G23 (.40) so that doesn't count, way too snappy and painful for me, even 9 years ago. After that I owned the XDM9 full size and that was a too high of a bore axis, although it felt good in my hands, still a good gun. The M&P9L I bought after I sold the XDM9 and it has less felt...

10-12 years ago at Bills in Robinsdale I took a 1 on 1 course since I just got my Glock G23 (.40). He was very good I thought, I shot really well after that for a little bit. Then more physical problems and never shot the G23 for 4-5 years before I sold it for a 9mm. Much easier on me. Hope...

I also HATE the M&P standard triggers. I shot mfg reps M&P9 FS and M&P9C and they were good, but they had 4k or 8k+ on them maybe. When I got my new M&P9L last year it was very gritty, got it a few weeks to a month after I shot those mfg reps guns and it was very noticeable. However when I...

Good News, the M&P Shield Parts are coming. However there are some Apex M&P kits that already work in the Shield right now. --------------------------------------------------------- Apex Tactical Specialties Informational Release May 1, 2012 Greetings! On April 13th, Smith & Wesson...

I don't know about the Shield. I do know that you can remove the thumb safety on the other regular M&P's and have it function just fine. I'd assume they'd offer it without from the factory at some point though.

$749, just WOW. I thought I read in the local paper 2-4 months ago that Gander sells the most guns of anyone in the whole country. The times I've been in there, I just don't see how. Last time was 5 months ago or so, barely looked though. Just glanced after doing that V Sim 300, which...

I own a Buckmark URX with front fiber that I bought new at the end of 2010. It looks exactly like ForumSurfer's pic. I tried the Hegis flip which works good. I'd say if you want a Glock type angle and shoot those then go with the Ruger's. If you want a typical grip angle; M&P, Sigs...

If you still wanted to get a couple extra OEM mags. Botach Tactical has them for $21.98 with SH, they had them on sale a little bit ago for $18.95 w-SH. I hope you have fun. I love my M&P9L, should of gotten the full size M&P9 though. Was thinking I'd do IDPA with it, but then got to...

This was posted on StarTribune in Minneapolis and updated 11-17-11: The perfect Christmas gift? Firearms This has to do with some people being able to go in front of a judge and get their 2nd Amendment Rights back. It is written as very anti-gun. ….. They might get angry they didn't...

These are just my personal tastes. Now if I got a very, very good price on most of the ones below (except NEOS and Sigma) and had the extra cash I’d buy it to try it out for a while and then sell it (over .45 handguns maybe shoot 1-2 rounds and be done though, have very bad neck and hands)...

I'd also check out Brian Enos forums. I love this site, but that site is really all about competitive shooting. Just make sure if you start a post you post here and there.

Formula94; I did the Pro V Sim 300 at Gander in Lakeville, I really liked it. Yeah $25 for an hour is a lot of money. My friend and I went in together at Bills GS&R on the 20 tokens for $250 + tax, so $12.50 + tax, but we actually got 21 tokens for that price. Don't know how long they plan on...

Bills Gun Shop Range Robbinsdale Minnesota. Planning on going this Saturday (Nov 5th) around 400pm with one person for sure. I have a M&P9L that has the Apex FSS & Trigger if anyone is interested in shooting it. You have the 9mm ammo, or a few bucks then your good to go. Or I'll shoot a...
