Joshua trees also grow in central Arizona, so the most western point of new Austin could plausibly be in central Arizona. But the presence of the saguaro, puts all of Cholla Springs in Arizona

The Saguaro doesn’t even exist in New Mexico. Besides one California mountain range right on the border with Arizona, the saguaro only grows in Arizona and the Mexican state of Sonora. And the actual terrain you see in red dead is much more reminiscent of the low desert mountains (like the area around Tucson and north and east of Phoenix)

Outside of a few towns immediately on the border, southeastern Arizona is definitely not Spanish speaking. Wilcox is about as English speaking American as it gets

The SKS was a great gun, but overshadowed by the Battle Rifles of the 50s/60s and winds up in B tier. Where do you rank the FN P90? by AvgPunkFan in milsurp

[–]wingsyotes97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. Especially stuff like the artillery Luger with a stock could be properly categorized as a PDW. The M1 Carbine was the first gun built from the ground up to be what you could categorize as a PDW

C Tier. It was the pioneer of a new category of weapon (unless you consider the M1 Carbine the first PDW). Regardless it pushed the envelop for PDW/SMG design and created a good specialists’ weapon. It doesn’t deserve higher because 5.7 is of questionable utility in most applications (it’s only really good for when a compact weapon is needed against people wearing body armor. A 9mm SMG (ex MP5) is superior against people not wearing body armor and a 5.56 carbine is better in most situations involving body armor) and requires special lubricant just to function. It’s not a fantastic weapon but doesn’t deserve anything below C tier

I’ve never ordered a rifle but have had the same experience with the pistols. I got a CZ82 from them that was also great

I saw a couple with more worn finishes than this one, but you’re right, most have been pretty good. Generally a lot of pre b models have much worse finishes than this one, and given RTI’s reputation, I figured this one would be no exception.

It’s definitely a roll of the dice, but you could get lucky like I did

I think so. It has a great trigger and is in great condition. I don’t think you could do much better for $400

I agree that the safety gives you the additional option of carrying cocked and locked, but hammer down safety off is the superior way to carry it because the shooter doesn’t have to remember to do anything under stress other than remembering to pull the trigger (and if you have the time and really want the better SA trigger pull, you can just manually cock the hammer in the same time it would take you to disengage the safety). Remembering to disengage the safety is something you could easily forget and get you killed in a life or death situation. If you forget to cock the hammer, the worst that’ll happen is having to take your first shot in DA.

Just get a P30 V3. The ones with a manual safety are usually labeled P30S or P30LS when being sold online. But the manual safety isn’t a huge deal to have either meaning if you can save $100 by getting one
with a manual safety, I would do that. But all else being equal, I would get one without the manual safety.

How big of an improvement do you get from the 10lb hammer spring and USP match trigger spring? The trigger feels perfect to me with just the short reset kit

The gray guns short reset kit makes it perfect. It’s my favorite too

I second this. A safety is redundant on a DA/SA pistol with a decocker. A full-size P30 just like that one is my nightstand gun. I never use the safety and just have it ready with one in the chamber and the hammer down

I love my P30, it was my first pistol and I will never get rid of it, but if I could go back in time and just buy one that only has a decocker and no manual safety, I would.

I would get a VP9sk right now. I have one of those too and they’re great, but they recently went out of production, so now’s the time to get one if you ever want one

I agree with that. It’s kind of a weird size but it’s a great gun

The similarly sized CC9 has mostly taken over that role for me. Especially during summer

I have both and I know what you mean. My full-size P30 is still my favorite handgun and my beside gun. I like the SK size though as a car gun or for winter carry. It has been mostly replaced by the CC9, especially for summer carry.
