What do you feed the volunteers at an IBC?

Pulled Pork and Smoked Cream Cheese. The Pistol IBC at Albuquerque New Mexico is going to be well fed.

If you go home hungry, it's your own fault.

Shield X Range trip.

Went to the range with my new Shield X. I am really liking it. I'm debating on pulling the optic from my Equalizer to put on it. Did a group where my arms were resting on the bench, and it was 5 rounds touching at 7 yards. The group was about an inch low, but I was just using the target that was already on the stand. Forgot to grab targets from the house.

I ran my Octane 9 and AAC Ti-Rant 45 in the short configuration on it. This is what was interesting. With the suppressors, the recoil was completely different. I could feel it straight back into my hand. Almost a little jarring, nothing painful by any means. It's just not what I normally get when shooting a pistol suppressed. Granted, these were full-size suppressors.

Overall I am liking it a lot. Need to get a holster for it, but I'm debating on getting a TLR 7 for it first. It will be the carry gun, and I will probably sell the Equalizer.

Buy or Mod?

I want to get a full size 9mm Pistol with a red dot. I have an M&P 9 full size 1.0. I can either buy an M&P 2.0 that is optic ready or send my current slide off to get the optic cut. Looking at DP Custom Works, it would be just over $200 to get the slide milled, dovetail added, and refinished.

Is it worth modding the current Pistol, or is the 2.0 a huge improvement over the 1.0 to justify the extra cash?

Pistol would be the first step in getting into shooting competitions.
