That's a handsome gun. Hope you figure out the trigger.No idea on the odds of Senate passing and Governor signing (I'm a Michigander) but if it was me and I was affected by this bill, say by being a 19 year old, I wouldn't comply. If I was caught then it would be a misdemeanor offense (the first offense would be).
I was finally able to make it to the range this weekend. Mainly wanted to do two things: try out the M57 Tokarev I picked up recently, and get the f'ing suppressor off my 22/47 Lite, rofl.
Here's my Tokarev after the 5 pounds of Cosmoline was cleaned off it:
Tokarev worked but there's something wrong with the trigger. I kinda think I bumped something, or whatever, during disassembly/reassembly, but I don't know. The trigger works but only if you pull it back in just the right way. I did notice that the trigger "pack" you put in the rear of the frame did not sit flush on the rails; it stuck up maybe a 1/8-1/4" inch. I just pressed it down cause it was held up by a spring or something like that and seemed fine otherwise, but I don't recall seeing that behavior in other peoples' reassembly videos I've watched.
And my Liberty Cosmic suppressor is stuck on my 22/45 Lite pistol, haha. I guess I hand tightened it too much when I first put it on there and now I can't get it off, even when rapid firing the pistol and trying to unscrew it. But it looks like you can use a crescent wrench to get it off so I gotta pick one up that's big enough, as my biggest one is 7/8" and is slightly too small. HNNNGGG
Thanks; she cleaned up quite well. I always used to think the Tokarev was a goofy or weird looking gun design, but it has definitely grown on me over time and now I actually think it looks neat, and unique. It's for a bug out/emergency type bag and something I can throw in there and forget about, but I like it so much and it's such an interesting piece of history that I might not use it for that role and instead get a cheap revolver or that Taurus PT111 or something else for the bag.That's a handsome gun. Hope you figure out the trigger.
I love my Taurus PT111 G2. For $200 it comes with two 12-round magazines and they are reliable as heck. Just compact enough, but not so much that it feels small in your hand. The grip is aggressively stippled and very comfortable in my hand.Thanks; she cleaned up quite well.

Nice, thanks for the mini review. I think finding a used Glock 19 would be ideal but the odds of needing this "bug out bag gun" are so slim and it's probably kinda dumb to put too much money into it. Well, not that I can't take it out and shoot it from time to time, but yeah. I think I'll go with the Taurus though.I love my Taurus PT111 G2.

Cool, thanks for the link. I watched a video recently by DevilDogGamer and he was singing the praises of Big Daddy Unlimited. It's a subscription site where you pay a monthly fee but they seem to have really good deals. It would probably be a good thing but I just don't order enough guns and accessories to justify the monthly fee. It looks decent though.https://gun.deals/ is a great place to look for a deal.
LMAO, those are great.Got some new pvc morale patches today.
Uhm...? Bang...? No new weapons but this thread is down to low...?
Dude wtf. Where do I find this type of legendary "wife" entity? I'm so f'ing jelly dawg. Btw yeah I used to like watching Top Shot too, haha. "BRING IT ON IN, SHOOTERS"I was thinking of buying a pair of competition 1911 acp's, one for me and one for my wife, but I haven't decided the best one to buy yet. I got my wife hooked on watching TopShot a couple of years ago and now she wants to get into competitions.
Holy poop that's a lot of .22LR!I have been buying ammo mostly. 20k of specialty .22lr earlier in the month, and today I got 4 more of the 1100rd buckets from the sale at academy.

Not much new with guns for me. I cleaned my AK recently so now I can put on the Primary Arms 1-6 scope and mount that I got a little while back. Should be a nice setup when I'm done.
I've always liked the look of an octagon barrel, and case hardening on any Henry lever gun always looks sweet. I opted for the base model Henry H001 .22 because I liked the hooded front site it came with.Thinking I'll pick up a Henry H001T soon. I'm looking for a fun plinker. I really love the octagon barrel after seeing a different .22 octagon barrel lever action at a local gun show. That gun was a special "case hardened" .22 that was $2600 though! Maybe I'll get lucky at our next gun show and find something decent otherwise I'll just buy one new for ~340 or so according to gundeals.
First shoot today with the Sig P365, sweet, going to take some getting used to.
I felt pretty clumsy with it at first, got better the more I used it. My wife and I put a hundred rounds through it with no problems.outstanding! I think one of these is going to be my next purchase when I see one in stock locally.
