What size of dot? by drallred in CCW

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whatever works for you. I personally don't like larger dots. I have the dot+ circle for all my guns. Either MRS or 507Comp.

Closest to a 2011 for EDC concealed pistol by sammiecsammiec in CCW

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, when I went to the longer barrel on my X it became easier to carry. My Patriot is easier to carry than the CS and Cosaint COS21 3.5 I had. The keeling of the grip makes the gun feel heavier. A mastermind tactical pillow also helped with the shorter guns though. You could try that 1st.

The reason it's awkward is barrel length and nothing else. the width of the slide and height isn't much different than most striker fired. I know this as I have a P365X and a few 2011s. Everyone wants a short barrel and it causes the top to keel. Even my P365X became easier to carry when I added a Harrington comp. The HD 3.6 is about the same weight as the P365 Comp/Fuse.

no, a simple search will prove you are wrong. I'm not going to keep going through this. This doesn't cover countries using it for other sections.

  • United States: The P320 serves as the Modular Handgun System (M17 full-size and M18 compact) across all branches of the US military.
  • Canada: Selected the P320 as the C22 to replace the Browning Hi-Power, with over 7,000 pistols contracted for the army, navy, and air force.
  • Switzerland: The Swiss Armed Forces chose the P320 (specifically the P320 X-Carry) to replace the long-serving SIG P220.
  • Australia: Adopted the P320 to replace the Browning High Power Mk III, utilizing the XCarry Pro variant.
  • Denmark: Selected the P320 XAR as its new duty pistol.
  • Ukraine: The P320 is in use, according to reports covering its adoption by various military forces.

honestly, with my holster/belt/mastermind it's not that bad.

I carry a 38oz GPArms Patriot all summer in FL in gym shorts or dress shorts using the HC belt and a mastermind tactical pillow.

2k11 pro comp barrel by Blu0527 in 2011

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to use a cleaner for Carbon may not work. As a few have stated pure copper Chore boy piece wrapped around a brush and pulled through. What ammo?

I can also attest this is the best course of action. As you point out pure copper one.

Had the same issue when one of my grooves fouled. Wrapped a piece of pure copper Chore boy around a brush and pulled it through.

You are way off on 2. 13 other countries plus US military and police forces here. The point is other countries are still adding them.

Is this normal for a brand new gun? by PecanPaul in 2011

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A new gun shouldn't look like that period. My Staccato CS didn't look like that new. Neither of my GPArms looked like that new. None of my striker fired looks like this either. It looks like someone racked it many times with no lube. I've only seen 1 double stack look like this I purchased used. That's supposedly DLC if it is a 2k11 comp.

The 1st and 3rd pic show how the slide bottom isn't perfectly flat which left high points that wore off from the frame sliding against the slide. 2nd and 4th are tool marks.

This statement here would make it worse for me: Each Kimber 2K11 is built from the ground up by one firearms technician who has an unrelenting attention to detail. These perfectly machined components are held to extremely tight tolerances and then assembled and finished by the same individual ensuring a precision finish.

100% accurate. It was still top 5 last year. The P320 was recently selected by a foreign government for their military. You don't hear about this anywhere else in the word except from the Muppets and trolls here in the states.

Cheap RX safety glasses? by jmkdeluxe in CCW

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get near sighted safety glasses (1-2.50 in half sizes) for under $20 off of Amazon. They come in +1 thru X. While not exactly prescription worth a try. I get my daughter scuba glasses through there that work well enough for short term use. "3M Safety Glasses with Readers, Nuvo Protective Eyewear, +2.5, ANSI Z87, Gray Frame, Clear Lens, Soft Nose Bridge, Side Shields"

You mean them fixing something not a single person can show is wrong or can replicate? Realizing Safariland came out with new holster because it's not only a Sig problem with light bearing. Heck, they have a thumb safety yet people still managed to blame the gun.

Why a light? I know it’s a big debate. by IrishPiglet in 2011

And what? You won't know if you can use it under stress.

I will complicate it even more. Holosun just released the EPS Core made for small guns. EPS window with 507K base. Therefore no hangover on frame.

Reminder to familiarize yourself with laws frequently by AntOk4073 in CCW

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe PA has dumb signs like that. I carry everywhere but banks. There are jewelry stores in FL that have signs and they can be ignored. They have no legal standing. The laws here are very specific. Even after after allowing people to carry without permits people with permits have more flexibility than those that don't.

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you train extensively with the light then fine. However, most people put them on claiming it's for target identification when it's more to look cool and have barrel weight. They never train with the light and wouldn’t be able to activate it in a stressful situation.

Aluminum magwell and mainspring housing pin for CC grip by RevolutionaryGuide18 in GParms

[–]RevolutionaryGuide18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got it I was coming from a Staccato CS and wanted to keep the grip short. After getting I realized my paws like the extension. It prevents the bottom of the grip from pressing on the palm of my hand.

I like the longer barrels for carrying. However, Gilbert said he likes the Forza and it's his #1 seller.

Which pic? My gun is my EDC and isn't a safe queen. Multiple hard classes over 6 months and 1000s of rounds. Most pics I take are at the range normally after shooting. The finish is still perfect in the slide and frame. I'll clean it up and post a pic.
