New Acquisitions July 2020 - Firearms Only

[Pariah1776]

Hey all, newish here.
Just showed up today.

@Pariah1776 Nice SVT. Remember if you use corrosive in it you need to break down and clean the gas system too. And don't use heavy ball, keep it around the 150gr weight.

Just got this M38 bayonet today in the mail

 

[majspud]

Tough find; worth almost as much as the rifle. 1940 Terni.

Wasn't fishing for likes....posted in solidarity with knucklehead....got this last year. These folding bayonets are quite rare.

Picked up a Ruger American Predator in .223REM. Because why not confuse your local FUDDs when you slap a 30-round mag into your “hunting” rifle.

Picked up a nice Glock 42 for the wife as an early anniversary gift.

 

[GunCat]

Sig P226 Tacops that I picked up along with a Steyr M9A1.



Edit: Threaded barrel just asked for some attention. And got some new 20-round mags, as it only came with a 15-rounder.

USP45 says, "Don't worry. It's not my blood."

 

[beaker]

For me its my G 17M then G 45.

G17 was definitely my favorite, but the G45 grip/trigger combination tends to work a little better. Maybe if I had a Gen5 G17, it would flip again. Hmmm...

I was doing homework on this rifle. Is it as good as the reports? any pros and cons?

I was doing homework on this rifle. Is it as good as the reports? any pros and cons?

So far, I’m really liking the platform. I chose the Ruger over the Mossberg MVP because I wanted more barrel length. Stock out of the box I was averaging 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 inch groups at 100yards using (when it was) cheap 55gr .223REM. I wasn’t a fan of the feel of the factory stock; the angle didn’t feel right for my firing hand. Plus, I can’t stand the “bladed safety” type triggers. I also didn’t like that the magazine release on the factory stock was half shrouded.

Pros for me is that there’s pretty good aftermarket support, specifically companies like Anarchy Outdoors and Boyds Gunstocks. The bolt handle isn’t braised onto the bolt body like a Remington 700, so swapping it out is super easy. Right now, the rifle looks totally different after all I’ve done to it. I’m gonna try sourcing some heavier match .223 and see how she does.
