    Say something positive about the USA

    My moms family is Scots and English and my dads family is English and German. We don’t really think about Europe being a homeland nor do we feel the same about states we have historically lived in. My family has moved across the USA several times in the last few generations - picture moving...

    Unfortunately it’s not a robocop gun. A robocop beretta would cost upwards of $50,000 if one was available for sale. My new gun is a SilencerCo Maxim9. I waited 10 months for that approval to own it.

    Is it an original? If not, you can easily fire it. If it’s an original, you can fire it with BP loads or modern smokeless powder loaded to cowboy specs. I do that all the time in my BP pistols (smokeless in cartridges rather than loose BP and percussion caps)

    I have no preference for racks- just something that won’t scratch it. That really cool that you are getting a sharps. The quigly models are nice but it’s really hard to find ammo in any caliber besides 45/70. (45-90, 45-110 have to be hand loaded or special ordered and even the cases are not...

    I bought the Ar15 proto and AR10 as rifles. I bought 3x 601 style lowers. I bought a 601 upper and built it on one of the lowers saving $200. The 605 was made similarly but with a PSA midlength dissipator barrel. The muzzle deviChe is not pinned. That one also has an old aluminum buttstock...

    It’s been a while.... A point with regard to the video- that is a Brownells AR15 proto upper on a FA lower. It has no deflector and I shoot left handed. My hearing protection is acting as the shell deflector.

    I’m familiar with the grand power- I usually carry something used- preferably without a 100% finish so I don’t have to feel bad about what ends up happening to it via wear and scratches + drawing and holstering. BTW- an X-Trim and X-caliber are on my list to buy

    IMO A glock is a good choice (I carry a Glock 21). You may also consider a CZ P-07 if you are not super familiar with striker fired no safety pistols for concealed carry.

    Johnny is totally right about he issues with bull pups- but the M17 was particularly bad. Worst trigger- ever. Makes a moisin nagant seem like a hairbtrigger. Ergonomics were terrible. I weighed twice as much as it should have. , iron sights were fixed plastic and were worse than sights on a...

    Hey Johnny- I got the Maxim 9 because it was $930 out the door (including tax and $65 NFA transfer fee + it came with a free octane 9 worth ~$450... so it was a really good deal). Toront- I had one of those Bushmaster M17 bullpups (second to last pic you posted) back in the 1990s. It was...

    I got some new stuff to post... need to get pix. I jumped on a maxim 9 during their "Get a free can" sale (the maxim 9 is still in NFA jail). I build some AR pistols and submitted stamps on them - so those should be coming in a few months. I got the stamp back on my 9mm zenith and on my...
