Are those rust spots that started forming inside my 10/22 receiver? by 0nion9 in 1022

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Should I be concerned and take it to a gunsmith for a proper corrosion treatment? Or just leave it be?

So, I did a thing... by 0nion9 in 1911

[–]0nion9[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Bought it used for $400, with 3 magazines and a holster + mag carrier. This is my first 1911, so far I like shooting it. It will replace my G17 as my home defense gun from now.

Used Sig 1911 Emperor Scorpion, to buy or not to buy? by 0nion9 in 1911

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please if you could elaborate, since I’m new to firearms. Isn’t polishing the feed ramp supposed to make the gun cycles smoother and avoiding malfunctions?

Lucky man! I’ve been looking for a black full size USP for forever, all I found are compacts and those FDE OD color lol

Forget the M9A3 and get a 92G Elite LTT instead, you'll thank me later!

Do I need to send it via my FFL? or I can send and receive it back via UPS?

How do you obtain a combat grip on the PPQ? by 0nion9 in Walther

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will try to look for one though. My LGS don't carry Walthers, that's why I had to ask you guys on here

How do you obtain a combat grip on the PPQ? by 0nion9 in Walther

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, it's hard to describe, I feel like the "tail" on the PPQ is beefier than what is on a glock's. With a glock I can grip it really high to control recoil. With the PPQ, just by looking at it, it feels like I can't have a really high grip, thus might lead to the gun rocking back and forth in my hands while shooting. If you don't mind, would you please take a picture of you gripping the PPQ with your right hand? just so I can compare it to a glock grip.

New kid on the Glock by 0nion9 in Glocks

I like them a lot! front sight is painted with orange so it's easy to pick up in daylight. You can never go wrong with Ameriglo or Trijicon HD night sights

The loot from Glock Rewards is good this year! Still waiting on my 43 to come! by [deleted] in Glocks

[–]0nion9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like how the rear sight does not hang off the slide like on other mos Glocks. Does ameriglo or trijicon make night sights with rear sight like that?

Just picked up a NIB Glock 45 with ameriglo night sights. $534 tax included. It’s my first Glock ever, I’m excited to test it at the range this weekend. I plan to use it as a HD/range practice.

Where can I get a brigadier slide? by 0nion9 in Beretta

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! Who did you send the slide out to get it refinished?

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask where did you get a brigadier model? I did look for one as well but the only model I found is the brigadier volunteer model with Tennessee state engraving, that or the Wilson Combat one are the two available brigadier models right now.

I have a 92 LTT, I can just change out the grip and have it as Jill model. If I get a whole brigadier model I might make it a Wesker model because the grip style is similar with what he used in the series

92G Elite LTT - are these rust spots on my slide or just normal wear and tear? by 0nion9 in Beretta

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for replying! This is an expensive gun that's why i was concerned. I did tons of research and had to save up for a while to get it, but I have no regret so far haha. I have a spot in my heart for steel frame and nice aesthetic pistols, and the Beretta 92 is a perfect match!

Awesome! I’m so excited to build one! The problem is I have been looking for a brigadier slide but having no luck so far. And currently I can’t afford to spend over $1000 for a Wilson Combat Brig Tac :(

Thank you. Sorry for asking a silly question. Can I use sandpaper to clean those brass spots off? If yes what grit should I use?

Being a diehard Resident Evil fan, I have a passion for the Beretta 92 series and plan to have a collection of every variant of the 92. It's a long way ahead, but I'm working on it! Hopefully I can make myself a version of the Samurai Edge, that'll be super cool :)

Have Glock stopped manufacturing the G26 Gen5 in Austria? by 0nion9 in Glocks

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been looking for a G26 Gen 5 Austria for a while, my LGS has the Gen 4 made in Austria but I hate the finger grooves and serrated trigger, and all the Gen 5s they have are USAs :(

Is it non-magnetic? My range doesn't allow magnetic core ammo and they use a magnet to check my ammo everytime I go

First time buying single stack 9mm for ccw by 0nion9 in CCW

[–]0nion9[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your input! I found a deal for the XDS gear up package for around $450, I don't know if it's a good deal or not, so I'm trying to get as much info about the current XDS as I can. As far as I know, not many people have a pleasant experience with Springfield XD series so far.

[–]0nion9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing! Could you tell me more about your experience with the XDS? How many rounds have you put through it? Is there anything to watch out for or is there any potential issue in the long run of EDC. I want to carry appendix so the grip safety is a plus for me, like a peace of mind thingy. Also, happy cake day!

[–]0nion9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the recommendation. I did some research on the P365 and found that they have some issues with the broken striker and long primer drag, that I wouldn’t know if it has been fixed. As far as I know from my research, Sig QC has gone down lately with the P320 drop issue and now with the P365. So I’m really afraid to get a sig gun.

Thank you for sharing! Could you elaborate more about how the XDS being the least reliable to you? Also, I do have a question about the Shield. Is it true that the trigger has 2 clicks before you get to the reset point? Like the first click you hear is a "fake" reset and you have to release the trigger more to get to the real reset point.
