Shhhh. Wifey doesn't know these are in the safe yet. Labor Day sales were too good to pass up. I was looking for a plinker, and I did a lot of research on the Taurus TX22 Gen 2. PSA had this one on sale with 3x 16rd and 2x 21rd clips for $250.
The CZ P-09F had very good reviews as well. So again, there's one in the safe now. I haven't ruled out Cajun-izing the trigger. Many of the reviews say the trigger warms up the more rounds that goes through it, turning it into a less than 6lb trigger. if that happens, I won't do the Cajun conversion. Found it at a gun store going out of business for $489 new. It comes equipped with 2x 19rd mags and a DA/SA platform.
I have one more arriving at my FFL tomorrow. The Beretta APX A1 Tactical. Again, a lot of research went into this one too. My preferred firearm is a full-size flat shooter with a high round capacity and large accessory capability. The Beretta checked all the boxes. It comes with 3x 21rd mags, threaded barrel, and optics cut slide. After the $75 Beretta rebate, I will be in for $359 on this firearm. I'll try to post again on their performance after a day at the range.

 

I was able to get out to the range with the Beretta APX A1 FS, CZ P09F Nocturne, and the TX22 gen2. The TX22 is a lot of fun. Not a single issue. The CZ was as advertised; a flat accurate shooter out of the box. The Beretta gave me a mag issue (21rd). Not only are they extremely hard to load, but the spring nearly popped out of the mag frame. I also didn’t care for the suppressor height sights with no dots. It was inaccurate out of the box. It is a smooth shooter, but I bought a Vortex green dot for it that arrived today. Now I have to buy the mounting plate from Beretta. I expect to be satisfied after the Vortex is mounted.

 

My Wife doe

sn't care one bit how many guns I buy, she buy's me guns for my Birthday and Christmas: I reciprocate, she just has to ask. No "Sneaking".

 

Good for you Daddy Warbucks. There’s also a thing called Mad Money and Girl Math. Many different ways to slice it, but it usually goes both ways. No shame in playing the game.

 

Just got a Remington 541 T. I'm really looking forward to wringing it out.

 

another discontinued beauty

 

Just pick her up Saturday

 

I always thought the PPK/S were pretty cool little pistols. Very nice one you have actually made in Germany. I had an American made one back in the late 80's. I have medium sized hands and I really needed that magazine with the finger extension to properly get a decent grip. I never had any issues with the so-called slide bite, but, I hated that ridiculous, super long, super heavy DA trigger pull. It was accurate because of the fixed barrel. But, that DA trigger was so bad I sold it.

 

Pure impulse buy. I always thought pistols are pistols and rifles are rifles and I enough of both. (A LIE) But something about this just got me, so I ordered one and paid too much. But Man. is it Fun!

 

My latest is a Hammerli Force B1 22 rifle. Straight pull toggle link action, easy swap barrel to go to 22 Mag, except you can’t buy another barrel, and uses Ruger mags with an adapter for 22 L…which are also vapor ware, but it comes with three, so…ok.

Had to refinish due to removing finish trying to get the sticker residue off.
Before, and after with a light walnut stain and BLO.

I just ordered one yesterday. Probably won't have it for another 7-10 days based on past experience with Palmetto. Great price. I had a Tanfoglio many years ago and sold it unfortunately. Thought I'd add this it my "metal pistol" collection, which is 90% 1911s.

What has been your experience with your SAR 2000?

Doug

It’s been reliable and accurate. Great addition!

 

I just bought a CZ 2075 RAMI, it is to be delivered to my FFL guy today for me to pickup either this evening or tomorrow morning. Look forward to getting it to the range.

 

Good find, I hear they are fairly rare NIB.

 

Purchased Shadow 2 Carry yesterday. Arrives at FFL Friday. With all the NYS bs I need to go through, I should be able to bring it home in 3 to 4 weeks.

 

They let you possess guns in NY?

 

Vermont has 72 hr waiting period as well sucks but could be worse

 

Don’t complain. NY gov and the dems are now pushing for a 10 day waiting period.

 

Just got a P-01 and a question popped into the brain...when using the Plus two bases on the 15 round mags, there's a small gap between the mag baseplate and the grip...maybe 1/8". Is there a magwell available that would fill that gap?

 

Sorry to the OP as we are WAAAY off topic

I get it but sadly and truly this country is split down the middle. I don’t see a choice but there to be a reset … what will that look like and will it be in my lifetime is my question. The tragedy of Charley Kirk has even some the Left saying WTF

again I apologize to the OP

Oh there's a reset coming and a choice to be made with it and very soon and the two sides will be joining in to bring it [two wings....]...Hope everyone thinks VERY hard about it.

I did just buy an H&R 686 with two cylinders.

 

I wondered why they stopped making them, but the shift seems to be polymer, so maybe that's it. Not really inti sub-compacts but this is one neat gun.

 

you should have bought the Mcarbo Trigger kit
CZ 75 Trigger Spring Kit
which would have "cajunized" it at a fraction of the cost of CGW, but with equal results

 

Went on a spree...All Ruger's even though I generally don't appreciate Ruger
Mark II Standard; all I need is a Mark III and I'll have the set.

SR9 with 3.5lb trigger, 5 mags and case.

And a 9" Single Six New Model

 

The latest here is a 1916 production DWM P-08 pistol. All numbers match, to include the magazine. It came with a late war hard shell holster in quite decent shape with the multi-tool in its pocket, but no spare magazine. After Hoppe's turned patches good and green the bore cleaned up beautifully. All in all, a well cared for service pistol in good working order. Es gefällt mir
