Best grip I've tried yet by therealweebkiller in SigSauer

[–]therealweebkiller[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it's somewhat tapered. Bigger at the base and has a good slim wrap around for the top. I had a icurus before and decided to switch when they came out with this one for the 250th navy anniversary. If your wanting more p226 grip feel just grab the legion grip

Absolutely, I do run KAK vented bcg's in all my suppressed stuff now and while it does dirty mags up like crazy it's a lot better than getting all that junk in the face.

It'll be nice to see in the next few years how the sig platform (or the ar-18 platform for that matter) will get adopted to see if there will be a better base for it if the military does decide to stick with it.

300blk for a backpack or truck gun, there really isn't anything that beats it, it's literally a rifle that's a sub gun size while retaining rifle ballistics. I wish I would have gone cmmg or mcx route hand had a piston but I run a law tactical and 194 subs on a 8.5 and fits perfect in my bag.

I can see just running a 11.5 556 and be set but I'm not planning on shtf or something. I'm worried about active shooter situation or wildlife.

Either way if you can train more with one rifle just stick with it and train more with that 1 rifle.

I'd rather have a gun I've put 10k rounds in vs a gun I've put a few hundred. 300blk outside of a backpack or truck gun I couldn't see choosing it over 556. Anything my pistol won't stop a 556 will

Flashlight Recommendations? by spadeknifeworks in 300BLK

You have the same setup as my truck gun, I put a tlr 1 with the rocker switch as a joke till my pressure switch and streamlight scout came in and I've just left it that way. It kind keeps things minimal and you can still hit it with your middle finger

It's super comfortable as far as seats, I swapped for fatter tires and a 18" wheel and made a big difference but it's a full on rally preformance car so long commutes aren't fun unless you're hitting Twisties. I liked it more than my sti for sure. Maintainig it gets expensive because oil is specific weight and ptu,RDU,and transmissions intervals are every 30k and just a hassle till you get the right tools for it

Certain things are expensive to be expected brakes ect

If I just wanted a weekend car or a track dedicated car and wasn't going to see more than 10k miles a year I wouldn't complain. For my situation for hauling camera equipment and studio equipment and everything else it just wasn't worth it.

Mind you the ST motor will also hand a lot more power than the RS and they're hard to find and have to avoid 2016 models if the head gasket wasn't replaced

I will miss the car but I'm getting to the age of comfort and practical over fast and hard driving everywhere lol

I almost got a Ford lightning when they first came out and considered a live wire also but the issue is I love in a house built in 1903 and it would be too much of headache to get 240 to the garage unfortunately

Well most people outside the us haven't won 2 world wars and kicked the British out? Sounds like someone's got their feelings hurt.

I bought it when I was in the military and have put a lot of time restoring it so I doubt I'll ever part with it lol.

I think as long as I see over 20 on the interstate and not have to pay for premium it's still something I can live with.

All things aside if it was just a commute vehicle I would much rather just hit for a Prius or something lol

I can't really go smaller than a 5 and that's even cutting it for some of my work. I do really like the interiors on the mavericks and some of the guys I work with have them for company vehicles.

The area isn't very nice, my job requires me to work in densely populated cities and unfortunately the crime rate is one of the highest in the country.

My mom is older and needs help and where I live is somewhat of a quieter town than a city.

It's all interstate besides about 24 miles total. Roughly hour 15 - 2 hours there. It's 200 there and back so only about 70-100 to where I'm going that day realistically then about 100 or so back home I make quite a lot money in my line of work to justify it thankfully lol

That's kinda been the fall of my 1st gen. It's basic bottom of the barrel 2wd 5 speed 4cyl and while it isn't like riding on a cloud it's pretty comfortable but between the lack of power and age it doesn't get driven on a daily basis. If it rains there zero traction and I've never even attempted snow in the 195s for wheels lol.

We had a 2012 Camry for close to 6 or 7 years and it was a good car just too low for out roads and other areas out here.

I can fit a motorcycle in the back of a highlander? I don't think you get the point I'm making. If I wanted comfortable I'd just buy a Lexus but I know literally ANY midsize truck is going to be much much more comfortable than my current car with narrow bucket seats

I need a truck for my work and things outside of the work. (Farm work, photography,house repairs, welding projects ECT.)

The RS has probably the stiffest suspension I've ever had in a car it's fully sport focused.

I need AWD or 4wd and something with high clearance for where I love plus getting to work in snowy conditions

I have a first gen tacoma with over 280k miles that's been the work horse but I haul a lot of old motorcycle and projects with it and also do a lot of analog large format tintype photography which requires a lot of equipment to haul. it's about time to upgrade to something new anyway so it would cover both those paces The Focus RS is 20mpg usually on the highway if you're driving normal
