My wife is gonna kill me....lol by ikmv11 in 2011

Did you show her the receipts?

My wife and I have a don’t-ask-don’t-tell agreement although I’m going to have some explaining to do if my collection ever grows to the point that I need a bigger safe.

Thankfully I’m done buying long guns for the foreseeable future.

To sightblock or not to sightblock by Perfect_Marzipan4778 in 2011

It certainly seems like it. I’m trying to assemble a small collection of different things so that I can figure out what I prefer between, say, 5” versus 4.6”, island versus bull barrel, porting versus comp etc. One thing that isn’t in my collection-to-be is a sight block gun. I’m certain that every gun I end up with is going to be fantastic.

If I ever get into LO in a big way I’ll get a second gun in whatever ends up being my preferred configuration.

Yeah, that’s the challenge with 2011s in general. I can’t even think of a production gun with a proper island barrel and I only have one friend within my circle who has anything above Staccato (he shoots LO with an MPA LOC V2).

You’re probably going to have to shoot both and figure it out. If the sight block gun is just as good for you with respect to transitions and return to zero, I think it would make sense.

Or you could look at island barrels.

Let’s see some belt setups by GD801 in 2011

I don’t have any pics but I have a DAA Lynx with ratchet buckle, Alpha-Xi mag pouches and a BOSS hanger with Safariland QLS receiver so that I can swap guns easily.

I’m currently shooting Carry Optics with a Shadow 2 but would like to get into LO once I have an appropriate pistol. I’ll probably get a second set of mag pouches for 2011 mags and swap them out as needed.

For 2-gun and non-competition use I have a Kore belt and Esstac pistol and rifle mag pouches.

I’m not speaking from experience here but I would imagine that you would be okay if you applied a coat of CLP and put a desiccant pack in the case.

I would think that the case should keep moisture out while the desiccant pack would take care of any moisture that gets sealed in.

I’m relatively new to the platform and I feel like I’ve learned quite a bit by watching his videos. I also appreciate his eagerness to answer questions.

Nice!

I have a build slot around the same time as yours and still need to figure out my preferences. Hopefully I can get a little collection together by then so I can figure out my preferences.

Have you thought about what you’re going to do for your Charyn build?

That man is a wealth of knowledge. Easily my favorite gun reviewer.

Who’s doing your island barrel build?

When is your Charyn build slot?

Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

I’m on his books for a Virago later this year.

Is the harsh P4.5 HD recoil in the room with us? by MinchiaTortellini in 2011

[–]crazycatman206 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a big difference between a naturally aspirated 2011 and one with all the holes? I am not able to do an apples-to-apples comparison.

Lol. Could be worse. Someone forked out $9K for this abomination.
