Re: G19 & Tirant9 Issues

I shoot my TiRant 9 on a factory threaded Glock 19, haven't had a single hiccup. My only experiences with aftermarket barrels on Glocks involve a Lone Wolf 9mm conversion barrel in a Glock 23 that was horribly out of spec (the barrel) and unreliable, and a Lone Wolf threaded barrel in a Glock 21 tha...

There have been one-offs and group buys (mp5sd and hk45ct can) here in the past, is there anything in the works this year as far as cans or other NFA items are concerned?

Re: Backpacks

Only packs I have are military; large alice, ACU Molle, and OCP medium Molle ruck which is like a larger version of the assault pack with a frame. Of the 3, the ACU Molle ruck is my favorite due to the horizontal and vertical straps to cinch down the main compartment. The OCP pack looks good, but ca...

Re: Suppressed Pistol, Which Make/Model??

Is there much of a difference between the MK25 and the P226 in terms of using as a suppressor host? MK25 internals are parkerized for swimming in salt water, and it has a cool anchor and sticker on it. Otherwise, same gun. I have a 226 Elite which comes with a beavertail, most important feature to ...

Re: Sig P229/220 with Osprey????

I don't have a 229 but I have a 228 I shoot suppressed. Wet or dry I catch more grit in the face with the Sig than I get from my Glock, dunno if it's a design issue but the Sig rarely leaves the house. I've already decided not to pursue a threaded barrel for my 226 because of it.

Re: LA Deputies blame new handgun for increased accidental discharges

Sounds like an operator issue, not an equipment issue. The gun didnt cause the ND's, the jackwagon that pulled the trigger did.
