    What cheap mbus for ar-15

    I picked up a set of Tippmann flip up sights awhile back. They were $17 and came in a plastic bag. They're made for paintball (I assume) but they're a pretty close clone of MBUS and I've had good luck with them. Now they're on a CAA MCK and they work fine. With that said, if you're trying to...

    We the People Holsters. Buyer beware

    I wanted to update this. I finally got in consistent contact with the company and they sent me a new holster. The new one seems to function fine. They're a semi-new company selling an American made product at an affordable price. I no longer have any complaints.

    We the People Holsters. Buyer beware

    Thanks for the advice, I'm new to Kydex and didn't know this was a common problem. Today I received an email that claimed to be from the company owner inviting me to join a Facebook page. I replied to that email and received a response from the owner and then I was promptly contacted by...

    We the People Holsters. Buyer beware

    I rarely post on here, I usually just search the forums for information. I wanted to share a recent experience I had with the company We the People Holsters. I bought their OWB model for a CZ-75B. The holster does not fit properly around the magazine release and causes the magazine to eject...

    First day out with Taurus Pt709 "Slim"

    I got in the nasty habit of buying Tulammo because of my Glock 22. My Glock loves the stuff. The slide was holding open with one round left in the mag with all the ammo I tried except for Hornady. The problem was more frequent early on and it stopped entirely before the 120 round mark. I...

    First day out with Taurus Pt709 "Slim"

    I've been wanting a single stack, subcompact 9mm for awhile. I went in to my LGS determined to buy one and ended up with the pt709. I did look at the Kahr CW9, Ruger LC9, Baretta Nano, and the XDs. There was just something about the Taurus that I liked. The 709 fits in my hand nicely, it had...

    RIA 1911 .45 ACP Tactical

    My RIA came with Act-Mags. They're pretty cheap and seem to work extremely well... I bought ten of them. Just get some quality 8 round mags and call it a day.

    Self defense piece for Mom

    I had a similar issue a year ago. My Mom has Arthritis and a number of other problems that make shooting difficult. While I was trying to find a gun for her, I bought a Ruger LCR in .38 for myself..... She immediately took possession of it. She has trouble working the slide on an auto, and she...

    Interesting pistol: Star Model B

    I used to have the Star BM which is somewhat like an officer sized version of the same gun. Great little weapon! Unfortunately I sold it for a duty weapon, this was before I was getting in to concealed carry :(

    Recommendation? Single Stack for CCW

    I carry a Rock Island Compact (3.5inch). It's actually really nice for concealed carry once you ditch the fat grips it comes with. I've always like the commander sized 1911s for ccw because the 4inch barrel helps keep the gun stable when I carry IWB, however, the full sized grip is kind of hard...

    Ruger LCR thoughts (after 3 months of carry)

    I don't believe you can really know a gun and how it carries until it's been attached to you for a few months. lol

    357 ruger lcr

    I have an LCR in .38 and they're great guns. For the .357 model I think they were going for around $450 in Ohio last time I looked. Something to consider: If you're set on .357 you may want something a little heavier than the LCR. When I shoot +p out of my .38 it deals quite a bit of...

    I think Hi Point wants me to break federal law...

    Thanks everyone! I guess I fell victim to the misinformation out there. It always blow my mind how misinformed people are about the law and hear I am making the same mistake :eek: I guess this is why we have forums to share knowledge. Thanks again!

    I think Hi Point wants me to break federal law...

    Thanks for the input. I'm in Ohio and I don't believe that there are any extra regulations regarding the post office. The sad thing is that I could drive for 30mins and hand it to someone at the factory but apparently that's a no no

    Should USE of a weapon in a crime constitute a higher penalty?

    I don't have a problem with harsher penalties for the use of a gun. Like it or not, guns are a more serious weapon than a lead pipe or a knife. This is why I carry a .45. Now I would say that assault with a deadly weapon should be a coverall whether it was a baseball bat, knife, gun or anything...

    I think Hi Point wants me to break federal law...

    I have an older model Hi Point 995 Carbine in the ATI Cx4 look-a-like stock. The carbine has developed hairline cracks in the bolt so instead of letting the gun blow up in my face, I've decided to send it back to Hi Point's factory in Mansfield, Ohio. When I called HiPoint I was...

    The ultimate pocket holster is...

    +1 on the nemesis. It does kinda require big pockets but it does a really good job stabilizing itself. On some of the jeans I wear it does bulge a bit but it just looks like a smartphone. Some of the smaller holsters like the Uncle Mike's don't seem to stay put in larger pockets, I know that...

    Ruger LCR thoughts (after 3 months of carry)

    I originally had purchased a Rock Island 1911 compact for ccw but I realized over the summer that this was a little large for every day. I needed something smaller and lighter for summer. I picked up a Ruger LCR in .38spc back in July and I'm rarely without it. I carry the LCR in one of 3...

    Ruger MkII 50th anniversary

    Thanks for the input everyone! I think I'm picking up a 22/45 tomorrow since $250 is a hard price to argue with.
