Hey, the Raven is the best of the old school pot metal .25's, give it a little respect. The Phoenix is the successor to the Raven, so it's the best of all pot metal .22's and .25's, but the Raven still has something going for it. They're fun to fidget with while bored and the chrome finish ones are fun to look at and think of how many pimps likely owned it before yourself.My friend has a .25 cal raven.

Probably many I took it apart and cleaned it for the owner. It was filthy. It had like 5 parts.Hey, the Raven is the best of the old school pot metal .25's, give it a little respect.

That was way nicer than my 80 builds
Highpoint for the win!
Yeets out babyI saw some guy on the Interwebs last night. YT. He did a multi-part deal with Clint Smith on old firearms. He was semi-clueless.
He had his top 5 guns of 2023. One was Glock. Not a model. Glock. The platform. One was a Honey Badger in 8.7mm. One was a Beretta shotgun. I forget the 4th. But the last one was a 10mm HiPoint.
Flexing on the poors!
Some day, when you want to puke, I'll post pictures of what started out as a stainless steel government-framed 6" 1911, which if the story from the homeowner is to be believed (and everything else he had said checked out as to what something was) it started life in the 90s as an early production Nighthawk with a double stack, made after Para Ordnance started making their double-stack conversion kits. The rust was so bad no markings or serial number was legible, and so we didn't want anything to do with it. Obliterated serial number and all that. Apparently, some 25 years ago he set it down, other stuff got piled onto it, and at some point it got knocked down. Then the basement started collecting water.... and the rest is just a shame. The only thing that was still visible and able to be identified was some severely molded and rotting teak grips.Flexing on the poors!
They're not RMR pattern, they're Shield RMS/RMSc patternsomebody mentioned $60 rmr cut red dots - where are they?
yeah, rmr pattern is a must. i have 2 cheap glock gen3 slides, and want to put a dot on at least one the of them. but it is not worth anything decent.They're not RMR pattern, they're Shield RMS/RMSc pattern

Asking for a friend that likes cheap optics. He needs a cheap pistol.
What would be the point? Or are DAO more shootable with a red dot since during the long pull you don't have to keep the sights lined up perfectly?SCCY CPX-1 with optic cut.... a saucy for your flintoptic.

Why does the price matter? If the gun works well and shoots well enough to consider paying to put an optic on it, what difference does the pewpew price make?I'm being facetious, and SCCY actually made some guns with an optic cut, the combination was rather comical given the price point.
Has your friend had a chance to peruse the catalog from the fine folks at Nerf?
They’ve even stepped up into the night vision game, for those more discerning individuals.
a $50 adapter plate for a $60 dot? naah.I'm sure there are adapter plates available, I'm looking into those myself.
well, the nes cheap is a, probably, a printed frame, $120 set of all lower parts and, i think the cheapest slide with completion parts kit and barrel that can be done for around $220 or so, so, a roughly $350? when you sum it all up, it does not look too cheap anymore. no good, no pinty cheap.How cheap are we talking about, here? Average Joe cheap, or NES next-level Pinty cheap?
