I wonder why we can’t discuss politics on this forum but can discuss something as divisive as firearms.

Because the admins tend to lean liberal wheras a good majority of the crowd here is right... the gun thing seems like the one off that is allowed more under the guise of a hobby etc.

I’m ready to go home already. Is it 1500 hours yet?!?

Nice shooting out there. Upper left one 1 looks like the gun was cold at first attempts.

Yep, and so were my fingers.

The range was hot by 7:30am and it was 38 degrees (…cold for California). We even had a fire pit. I could barely feel the trigger because my fingers were so numb.

Whether one should or shouldn't let the springs "relax" is about as controversial as which (automotive) oil to use, change interval or what is the best wax. Mine have sat for years and still function correctly.

I shoot my duty weapon the most proficiently, and that's probably due to significantly more trigger time, more manipulation time, etc. (….and also more time drawing it in and out of the holster multiple times daily). I am not as good from the same distances with most of my other handguns.

That's probably the most important thing.

38? NOT FIT FOR MAN NOR BEAST.

Gets chilly in Phoenix too. That's why I'm in Thailand now. That and thai food. Yum

For the Sig fans here. Rare mint nickel made in Germany “compact” compared to 365 SAS. Difference is huge.

Oh I know you just didn't mistake SCAR 17 .308 mags for Glock mags.

I leave all my magazines loaded, never had an issue. I find them much easier to load after being spent if you leave them loaded at all times!

In happier news, FDE Friday is here once again! Glad to see other members here with the same fine firearms!

Nice shooting btw Sedan_Clan!

Thanks broski!!!!!

That kit looks damn good. I want! I need some nee firepower in my life. I'm tempted to purchase an MPX.

Always wanted an MPX, it’s a shame they discontinued the original and now you can only buy the small “k”.

You can still get the 16 inch PCC version.

Or you can get the K and swap in an 8 inch barrel and handguard. That is the expensive way, but doable.

I found this at one of my local hiding spots in my patrol area. It looks like some gang members have been engaging in some target practice in the city (…and missing half the shots).

I really wish they would not practice at all.

They they did not practice much. Maybe because it is loud and someone would call the cops?

Looks like 3 different calibers used. Maybe the large caliber was a revolver? 22 was a single shot...and a 9mm semi auto pistol?

All those eyes, judging your every shot placement...

How can you tell the 22 is a single shot? Or the large caliber a revolver? Seriously there must be a clue but it's going right by me.

I am 100% guessing.

The smallest holes, which I assume are the 22, are mostly far away from each other. A single shot 22 would make sense as the person has to reengage the target every time. You always give the new shooter the 22. So bad aim and far away groupings make sense. With a semiautomatic pistol the groupings would be closer. Also not many holes(takes time to load)

Largest holes I see 6 I think? So semi large caliber revolver is my bet. Had it loaded before they got there.

Bunch of 9mm is the rest of the holes. Semi auto pistol. Plenty 'close' together.

My guess is they did this fast and then bounced. All guesses. I could be 100% wrong. I don't star at bullet holes often.
