What two common guns would this general consider to be between a Ruger LCP Max and a S&W Model 69? I'm thinking SP101 as the revolver step down but I can't decide on an auto step up from the LCP

i purchased full size for home defense and range. as long as she doesn’t have baby hands she can work the pistol and recoil will be better. foids conflate smaller 9mm with being easier for foids when full size would be better to train with.

>>65068679
>Between a .380 micro semi and a .44
wut? That is a yuuge range.
M&P, or any other striker 9.

>>65068699
Fair point. I would like her to carry eventually though. I considered the F series, but she isn't tiny, for a woman, she's 5'6".

>>65068702
Talking about two guns
Combat Magnum>SP101>?>LCP
I'm hung between a compact 380 or a compact 9 like an M&P

>>65068706
set her up with a nice full size 9mm and then send her to range 2-3 years forget. one phone call 6 months.
get her a glawk ramjet set up if you’re really worried about 9mm recoil with her, or tell her to man up.

>>65068708
Micro 9
M&P-C, Hellcat, 43(X), etc

>>65068631
>Is PDP compact good choice for my girl?
I haven't handled either of those, so I can't tell you from first hand experience.
>>65068706
>I considered the F series, but she isn't tiny, for a woman, she's 5'6".
Have her handle different makes/models to see what fits her hand best. She is in the position of every beginner trying to make a first purchase. She doesn't know enough, or have enough experience, to decide what 'feels best' and will work the best for her. She may 'outgrow' whatever she starts out with. Important stuff is that she can reliably, confidently, and independently manipulate it (load, clear, make safe, etc.). Even 9mm recoil may be too much for her initially. She may be better off with a .380 like the S&W EZ series? If she can't enjoy shooting, she wont practice and improve.

>>65068721
I want something she will be comfortable with and want to shoot though. I've dragged exes to the range before and except for .22 rifles they all bitched after.
>Muh wrist, muh shoulder
As long as she shows proficiency and keeps it handy and loaded at home I guess I should be grateful, but it would be nice if she actually wanted to go out and shoot with me.
And I would prefer to BOCO. I hate having to sort through retards for private sales, and I don't need another 9. Guess I could try and sell to coqorkers if needed.
Do appreciate the input, you aren't wrong.

>>65069204
Typical Holosun spec is 12-15 inch/pounds. I don't know about the SCS specifically, but I'd guess it's the same. Use Loctite Blue or Vibatite VC3, don't rely on the chinkshit thread locker that comes on the Holosun fasteners.

>>65069213
you know if their oem mounting screws are fine? i read some conflicting stuff in a few forums. not even sure what i’d use to replace them if they’re ass.

File: IMG_1416.jpg (2.2 MB)

2.2 MB JPG

>>65069221
Yeah, the fasteners themselves are fine, and it would be quite hard to replace them with aftermarket ones, because you'd have to exactly match head angle, thread pitch, depth, etc. They just come with a smudge of dry thread locker on them that is no substitute for the real thing.

The SCS sits quite low on the gun, which is a good thing, but just make sure that the screw isn't too long on the extractor-side. You could potentially impinge on the extractor channel if the screw is too long, but I'm sure Holosun has thought of that, and will ship the optic with a short set of screws. If the screw is indeed too long, you can just file it down a bit. I had to do that with my EPS on my P365.

>>65069221
>>65069240
Like anon said, the head angle is important in this case, Holosun uses a different angle to literally everyone else, so you are very limited in aftermarket alternatives. I only know of 1

tl;dr Unless the factory screws are damaged or incorrect length you pretty much have to use them

Go watch JaredAF. He makes suggestions for pistols for each type of bullseye if you sift through his videos. I think for centerfire, I heard him mention something like a Colt Gold Cup in the interview he did. His latest is him shooting bullseye with a stock Gen 2 G17.

Huh, first time I've heard of a full size 1911 using a plastic MSH. Is that a weight savings thing for an aluminum model, or is that a holdover from when Kimber was cheaping out because of their penny pinching CEO?

I did one of their trigger kits myself for my P-01, it’s made a HUGE difference in single/double action weight and reset. To be fair it took me 4 hours to install it (mainly because of the trigger cage reassembly), but I’m confident I could do it much faster this time. I’d never taken my pistol apart to that level, but it’s not so intimidating now

I will answer your question. The Ruger is worth the money for accuracy, longevity and ease of use. The Glock 22s are not as reliable and I've seen more than one model having a catastrophic failure. The Walther is very finicky, not very reliable with cheap ammo which negates the reason why people get a 22 in the first place. The Ruger will eat everything

When it comes to 22, I dislike both Ruger mk whatever and Umarex/Walther.
Walther PPQ 22 is a very nice, soft gun to use. Attaching suppressor to it sucks, because it unthreads the barrel adapter with it after shooting and noodle thin barrel rattles in its sleeve. Cleaning the fire control assembly is absolutely fucked up procedure described absolutely nowhere.
Ruger 22/45 was my idea of upgrade, I like that barrel is solid, but the ejector RIVETED to the upper is sending me into autism rage every time. Why would you put it there and permanently attach it right in the middle of the place I need to brush? It's also much rougher when it comes to controls.

92fs anon here… more misery. Does anyone know where I could buy a super tall rear sight by itself? Can’t be too bulky due to the optics plate.

Dry fire is actually the best training tool. Live fire is to test your dry fire practice. Firearms should always be used responsibly because they are deadly weapons. Idiots will fuck up.

>something completely unrelated to dry fire is why im skeptical about dry firing

>>65070979
Okay but what if I accidentally load it and point it at my dick (I don't have a family) and pull the trigger? That's pretty dangerous right? So you can see why this would be a problem with dry firing.

nearly at a 1000 rounds with vp9a1F and still no malfunctions on the 115grain target loads. very impressed. even put 60 through with one of the 30 round ets mags and it was chugging. i didn’t think i’d like handguns more than rifles but i do.

>>65070912
Leaning very heavily towards dual hammers. To the point that the slide will be in the mail as soon as fusion confirms the lpa sight height. Figure finish in their dlc black. I could get an inox type look from Jarvis but more cost.
>>65070964
I’ve had my eyes on this one, but the concern is that it won’t clear the plate.

>>65071070
Those LPA adjustable sights won’t work with a Beretta/Dual hammer optic cut. Only sights would work are the Beretta suppressor height sights, either the M9A3 or 92FS .22 sights

>>65071092
And the M9A3 sights would only work with specific optic plates

Again, the beretta cut is inferior to the LTT cut. It’s taller, less secure, and back up irons are a bitch to get. Give Mr Langdonstein his money. The EPS/RMSC LTT plate is almost low enough to use the stock irons (but you’ll shoot high since the front is too low).

>>65071092
Yeah, this is what I figure. Most don’t want to sell the rear individually. Doubly so, need confirmation on the height. I mean I could probably just send the slide on and deal with the rear later. Secretly hoping dual hammers can handle the lpa install. Think this is drill press territory and not something that can be done with hand tools.

>>65071114
The LPA installation video the Italian guy does it with a hand drill.

>>65071111
It’s the same issue with the Langdon and afaik they make only one specific height with their rmr plate. I’d still want the lpa front. How is the Langdon more secure?

>>65071121
I better track down that video then. I’d like to drill it before refinishing.

>>65071122
It’s 3 screw instead of 2, slightly dovetailed into the slide, recoil lug cut into the slide matching the plate. It’s also lower, which is one of the more important things about optic cuts.

I can’t wait for Beretta to drop their plate design for Langdon’s so I don’t have to do this argument again

The EPS/RMSC plate has lower BUIS irons since those optics are lower.

EPS, Stock height, RMR height

>>65071145
All three of these slides are Cerakote, I have no idea why people have problems with Cerakote

The stock beretta finish is way worse than Cerakote and I’m glad Beretta is going to stop using it. IIRC the new M9A1s are Cerakote

>>65071145
Do you by-chance have a sight picture? Trying to get that 1/3 where the dot sits just above the post. The alternative being maybe I just have the front modified for fiber if it’s low enough for stock. This leaves the cerakote issue, but I thought for certain I needed the lpa front. Also, do you know if they have issues with oem g conversions? I know safety’s are usually converted but just curious. Apologies, I bought this gun 8-10 years ago and haven’t really kept up with the finer points on optics outside of Glock.

Picrel is what I’m talking about. Sights aren’t exactly lined up but it’s the best example without clamping the thing down. Dot sits just right on top of the front post.

>>65071159
OEM G conversions IIRC required a new plunger slot drilled into the slide, the one LTT installs is a M9A3 style which is easier to install than the OEM, they have to shave the top of it since the optic plate sits so low.

BUIS are kind of a meme, nice to have, but in emergency situations are you really going to use them and not point shoot? Is the optic shattered or lens covered so you can’t even see the irons through it? So the front sight being too low isn’t a big issue IMO

>>65071192
nice I like those. The new a1 naming convention is kind of dumb though.

I want to find a VP40 to shoot, I feel like that is a criminally underrated and borderline forgotten handgun

Mine didn’t require any drilling just a pain in the ass install of the plungers. I accidentally used an inox one and have kept it since.
>BUIS
I’m trying to achieve >>65071194 where the dot sits just above it. It can be helpful to help index the dot when it’s especially bright out and the dot has washed out. They’re still usable and available, but not the primary means of aiming but they are immensely helpful. I suspect the Langdon rear for rmr would be too low for the lpa front.

>>65071211
The mark 23 is fantastic. My only complaint being how much hk wants to charge for it.

I had a dream that I had a silenced burst firing pistol that was so fast it put 3 through the same hole and so quiet that it couldn't be heard 2 rooms away indoors. It was so cool that I started firing bursts through the ceiling, then lining my eye up to see sky light indoors through concentric holes in ceiling-rafter-roof. I got carried away and ended up with dozens of holes through walls and ceiling. Then it then turned into a panic dream as I had to repair the house before my parents found out but I knew it was impossible because I know they can hear me walking on the roof and I'd be found out then I woke up

>>65071249
This. If you wanted a customizable 92, you should have gotten a different version. With the amount of money you'd have to put into a 92FS, you're better off buying a separate gun

Complete accident. Was looking for videos on a different gun that he happened to shoot (poorly) as well. Recognized the range floor painting, and the dual targets that he puts up in other videos as well. It looks like he rents/trys out guns from a range, or a shop with a small test range. All his accessory 'reviews' also appear to be rental guns at that range.

Honesty the regular P365 size is the play, I don't understand why the bigger versions are at all popular especially in the P365 famiry where the grip is so small in circumference. You're not getting any more of your hand behind the grip and there are no fingers left hanging so why bother with the length

Also we don't have those here, jelly

The bigger ones are likely just due to Sig shidding and farding over the 320 debacle, since the 365 is far safer to carry. It does what I wish the G26 could do. I agree that the base model is the best version though.

He wears right wing politics like a skin suit and does some very T coded stuff

They get nothing from that deal. You would need to give information that leads directly to an arrest not just make vague suggestions. He's weird for sure but this is a retarded story you're cooking up. Feds don't have to do anything at all, people just come here and admit to breaking the law without anyone even asking. They don't need to say anything they can just sit here and watch. They don't watch nearly as closely as you think though, that sheetzo guy made death threats all day every day for like two years straight before they got him.

>>65071811
>but I hope you have painful shits for a week for using AI.
Are you fucking retarded? Rhetorical question, don't answer. AI overview is baked into practically every search engine return. Plus, the fact that Kydex is the most common holster material, is so painfully obvious that the search screenshot is just for laughs.

>i dont like the material of your holster!

Are you able to draw while maintaining target focus and sight awareness, pull the trigger without either prepping it nor disturbing the sight picture too early, keep your grip and input consistent with every repetition?
