I had to get bigger wrap around grips since the stock ones were a little small, and the exposed backstrap started to get painful after 100ish .44 magnum loads.

If you didn’t know, the Anaconda and Python share grips, there is no difference in size.

>>65074073
Nice. I have the pachmayr presentation grips with the enclosed backstrap on my Python. Which grips are you using on your Anaconda?

>>65074027
No, you need the CCW card to buy and start the DROS, else you pay $25 to take the Firearms Safety Certificate test (it expires every 5 years). THEN you need to pay an approved DOJ vendor to qualify you for that gun, THEN you pay your county sheriff/local PD $35 or so to modify your existing CCW license.

>>65074167

Yes, and it will be all SAs now because I'm going to fall for a 4chang meme again.

Because I'm literally getting the license this week. I wish the 'ech spammer started earlier so I wouldn't have to do a modification.

>>65074237
understandable. just seems sort of odd to worry about a test that works for 5 years and costs 25 bucks vs a test that costs 10x and only lasts for 2 years.

who or how are you getting the permit if not through the sheriff btw? i'm in butte county i think we have one of the more forgiving systems to get ours. really gay they upped the renewal hours to 8, half the class is shilling for insurance or range time or some other bullshit because there really isn't that much to talk about in the classroom.

Just lift and reload.

I've seen spooky skeletons handle .45 way better than how HRThands handles 9mm

>>65074337
9mm 1911 are awesome to shoot, carrying 1911s is a fashion statement and way suboptimal anyways so you might as well get the best shooting caliber. I would get one with rear adjustable target sights and high viz front. Dan Wesson PM9 is probably the ideal, but Tisas and Springfield have similar models. Avoid cerakote like the plague.

>>65074337
Do you mean like actual target shooting competition? If so, you're probably going to want a gun with a collet bushing you can pay a boomer to accurize.

Not really. Depends what you mean. The quality of their slides and frames never really dropped. Superb slide to frame fit and finishing. Colt slide stop pins are good.

They fuck up just about everything else. Lazily fit barrels, poorly tuned extractors, bad thumb safeties, loose grip safeties with laughably loose tolerances around the tangs. bad sears and disconnectors. bad spring selections.

You have to look at a Colt as a project gun. Contrary to what people say Colt 1911s have been ass out of the box since at least the early 80s. I would not buy a GCNM unless you are in love with blueing for some reason, they are really not good enough for bullseye shooting. Buy a Tisas and handfit a Kart/Barsto/Nowlin/Nighthawk/Remsport match barrel and bushing on it, get a drop in ignition set from anywhere.

is it gay to wear gloves when training with your pistol because you don’t want to develop calluses? if anything it feels like a hack

>>65074980
I wear gloves when my guns get too hot/when I use suppressors.

>>65074985
oh yeah it helps with that too, just not my main reasoning. it actually helps a lot because after going through a few 20 rounders mixed with direct sunlight the barrel starts to retain a lot of heat.

>>65074980
>because you don’t want to develop calluses?
Unless you are shooting full power 44 Rem Mag, or greater, yes, that is very gay.

>>65074980
It is gay, but it's okay to be gay

>>65075038
I shoot decent volume 9mm, and i don’t want hard calluses all over my hands. im not gay i just don’t like how they look or feel. i got a little worried with all the dry fire that high pressure contact points would callus but im not putting on gloves on and off all day when i get free time for dry fire.

>>65075049
>I shoot decent volume 9mm, and i don’t want hard calluses all over my hands.
What gun are you shooting? I can't imagine wearing gloves unless it was freezing cold outside. Wearing gloves drastically decreases the contact area, and friction between the gun and your hands. When you use your hands for manual tasks they get a little beat up, that's life. Have you ever seen the hands of someone that does manual labor day-in, day-out? Part of getting better at things is literally and metaphorically building up a little bit of a callous on yourself.

>>65075065
vp9, usually 200 rounds every 5-7 days but sometimes my range buddy and i shoot 300 each if we don’t have time constraints.

I thought it was the most colorful example of his work.

For sourcing a medal by itself search for custom pins/buttons/challenge coins and see who does something small enough for gun grips. There's a billion stores on etsy alone who'll make stuff like that. Pin and challenge coin makers are probably your best bet for the Noble Witches logo to get the borders on the top and bottom of the circle properly shaped and not just as one big circle. Or 3D print it get it painted if you don't care about it being metal.

There is no amount of lifting that makes .45 ACP have the same, or less recoil than a 9mm. Reloading 9mm is always cheaper than reloading .45 ACP.
>>65074357
>Avoid cerakote like the plague.

>>65075585
>No .40
come on now, I'll admit that I wouldn't mind a compact because thats what Spain has

>>65075596

I wouldn't ever own a .40. I'm probably going to get either a mk23 or a P2000sk 9mm V3 for my next HK pistol.

>>65075600
a 40 gun is great to have when 9mm goes on a shortage

>>65075604

True, though I'm 38 and thus have had enough time to stockpile 9mm and .45. I've been through enough shortages that I learned my lesson in 2008 with Obama.

>>65075613
I'm 10 years younger than you and I kind of had to just stick to whatever is available
I just think that most .40 guns suck but the USP 40 is the best of the bunch

I agree with that assessment. Its an overbuilt pistol, it handles .40 and .45 beautifully, no argument there.

>>65075615

Hell yeah

>>65075628
Yeah I had the pleasure to shoot a USP40 rental years ago and fell in love with the gun
I bought the USP45 however but now I decided that with everything kind of going to shit I might as well just snag a USP 40 now

Oh and the only other .40 guns I shot were the M&P40 and Glock 22, and I have the M&P 40 and it is just meh at best
I did put some money into restoration and gave it trijicon sights but it is just meh

>>65075642

I shot a P2000 in .40 back in like 2007, it was okay. It did make the decision for me to choose the USP45c (first handgun) and I've never looked back.

“Why do you handload your ammo”?

Pic related….

Fwiw 500 bushwacker is like 140$ for 20 rounds…. However they sell the dies and share load data because the TII guys rock. That said my reload cost is between a buck and a buck fifty per round….


The contender is a wildcat in “50 Alaskan mag” so that’s technically priceless.. or at least impossible to just buy…. Finally got the reamer for the cases in and that’s gonna end up being a 450 gn .510 bullet at about 1300-1400 fps…

Some of that reputation is likely because a significant number of people shooting 45 acp are using a 1911 with some heft…

>>65073807
44 mag model 29 is the classic answer, but I’d say it’s worth considering a 460 xvr Taurus or if you can swing it an x frame…. You can shoot 45LC from them for light stuff, and splurge on some 454 casull or of course 460 xvr for real kaboom..

It's prone to that, but only because muscle strength grows far faster than ligament strength in general. If you build up over the course of months/years and aren't an unga bunga retard about it then it's fine.

Doing this exercise would put strain on your tendons, not your ligaments, and it would actually be strengthening your tendons not weakening them, unless you overdo it and try jumping into a grip strength trainer you aren't ready for without any progression. I have the #1 gripper and it is not even that much, 140lbs of grip strength should be the BASELINE for any man, nowhere even close to causing permanent damage.
