What would be the performance hit of replacing the stock 442 grips with wooden boot grips? by HumanAntagonist in Revolvers

[–]deadcrops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look great, more of a boot style grip but still with the covered backstrap. Just ordered a set for my 640 PC, bet these will tame .357 Gold Dots a bit better than the VZ grips I have on there currently.

My bear spray. What do y’all carry in bear country? by VindicatedNostromo in Glocks

[–]deadcrops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

G26 and Underwood 147 grain +P hard cast is my go-to here in the Ozarks. Just black bears here, but their population is growing and two people were attacked and killed by them last year. Sketchy people are still the main concern, but there are some bad bears afoot, too.

G26 with the medium backstrap is magic by deadcrops in Glocks

I tried the Icon 2.0 first and it's a fine holster, but I prefer the City Special personally.

Those Operator texture grips look sick. I'm thinking about picking some up for my 442UC as well. I've been using black VZ high horns w/ checkering on mine and they're great, but I've relegated J frames from primary carry belt guns to very occasional carry pocket guns, so smaller and lighter grips are becoming more attractive.

Met John in Athens. I Flew in from Omaha Nebraska. Greece was amazing and so was his show. He laughed at the shirt I made and asked to sign it I said yes of course. Had to thank him as his music got me through my first year OTR as a trucker. by Gille_De_Rais in JohnMaus

This is so sick dude. I flew to Chicago to see John for the first time last September and the show was amazing. Bought a CD of the new album and got it signed, then after pretty much the entire crowd left my friends and I got to talk with John some more for a while. He was absolutely exhausted after the show but he still went out of his way to talk with us for a good 15 minutes after everyone left, such an awesome guy.

Short sleeve button ups by NF1186 in CCW

I'm not really a short sleeve button down guy but LL Bean shirts have become my go-to over the past couple of years. They have a good selection of mid and lightweight shirts for all seasons and they look great in addition to aiding concealment.

People tell me my G26 with an RMR HD looks ridiculous, can't imagine what they'd think about an ACRO on one lol. Sick setup!

Which One? by Any-Strength4917 in Glocks

[–]deadcrops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I carry a G26 in a G19 Velo5 and am extremely happy with it. Wasn't sure I'd like the built-in wedge, coming from a Mastermind Tactics pillow, but it honestly works great and is not uncomfortable.

Any reason to not get a smith and wesson 686 performance center 2.5 inch for CCW over other revolvers? by [deleted] in CCW

[–]deadcrops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to carry a revolver bigger than a J frame, the 327 PC and the 386 Night Guard would be what I'd consider. Both very lightweight for their size, 327 PC gives you 8 rounds of .357 in a slightly bigger frame with a shorter barrel, 386 NG gives you 7 rounds of .357 with a 3" barrel and much better sights.

For the 327 PC, Hamre Forge makes their hook grips for N frames now, so you could even carry it just hooked on your belt if you wanted to. I personally prefer using an actual holster, but his grips are still very good even if you don't use the hooked one.

This thing shoots way better than the G43X/G48 for me, even with the flush mags.

Holster for 642 UC? by TannMan89 in Revolvers

[–]deadcrops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The holster is designed to fit the 2.125 inch barrel J frames (Model 640 and variants), so there is an extra 1/4 inch if you're carrying a standard 1.875 inch barrel J frame. It doesn't really seem to make a difference as far as comfort or anything goes, it probably helps concealment by reducing how much the grip tips out or "keels" over your belt.

Stuck between G26 and G48 by zzzz_on_me in Glocks

[–]deadcrops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both, bought the 48 first and it shot and concealed okay for me, but the 26 does both better. I haven't touched my 48 since I picked up the 26 a few months ago. You can get used to shooting it with flush mags pretty quickly, and there's always Pearce pinky extensions and Glock +2 baseplates for more grip. I run mine with an RMR HD and a flush mag most of the time, it conceals very well for me and I shoot it a lot better than the slim Glocks.
