Been using the B&T collector case and placing it inside a random amazon camera backpack. But the collector case requires the gun to be stock, and I have plenty of attachments id like to add on to it. Was thinking going a Leather/Canvas Dufflebag Route or the best value for SBRs the Savior Equipment Shorty SBR bag 24" x 12" . What are you guys running? Pictures appreciated :D
They posted the application from their website on their Instagram story but kinda felt like they are going more towards content creators than customers 😅. Anyone else trying for it?
Did anyone else complete the course over the weekend? Instructor and I were joking both days that I am probably the first person to complete the 12 hour course.
100% on the written exam (20 minutes) and completed the Practical Demonstration (Based on Material from the course) in one pass (5-7 minutes including reading instructions and going super slow). I received my confirmation email and certificate immediately after they submitted it.
I do hope for injunction, but honestly I didn’t wanna wait and I made use of my club membership for the free course (Shoot Indoor Buckley). I personally don’t expect a ruling on this unconstitutional law for at least a year, but who knows… Hoping to buy a Q or a KaliberTech (Out of Cody, Wyoming) Build in the next few months.
My pro tips:
- take a hunter safety course online somewhere (I think one of the Dakotas lets you take it) and just do the 4 hour version.
I seen some insta posts of dealers getting guns in specifically this post I saw a whole line up from university gun and pawn that said they do ship to other ffls. So I’d definitely wait on over paying for items…
I am looking to buy a variety of 9mm to test with some PDWs. I’ve tried the big box stores and Firing Line and they both only had two types of ammo in stock (115gr and The Winchester Suppressor Ammo). I’ve tried these ammo before and was not satisfied. Was hoping to find something local so I can test a few different brands and grains quickly (I know at a premium), then I’ll buy bulk online.
I’m looking for this type of ammo but not limited to:
Fiocci 158gr
Federal 147 / 150gr
Speer lawman 147gr
Hush 147gr
2A trainers on here have been super quiet on what they want to charge, i saw a facebook ad recently for DCF Guns that they are charging $500 bucks for the course (Im hoping its for both course if not its 500 for a 8 hour and 4 hour slot...?) ..... So dumb.
Edit Note for Link this is the 12 hour class: https://www.dcfguns.com/event-details?event_type_id=74 $1000
Edit Update for the 4 hour class: https://www.dcfguns.com/event-details?event_type_id=75 $250 (with prior Hunters Training course taken)
Edit for more Info:
Went to their Facebook I saw Members will get the 12 hour course for $200 and 4 hour course is $100. Comment was from a post on July 8th.
First impressions was good, I did have trouble shooting some flat top ammo subsonic ammo (147g) I had. Failure to feeds happening basically every other round. But the round top ammo fired fine (115g). Hoping to be posting my full build coming in few weeks. But my gigliotti trigger comes in today and going to attempt to install it… 😅😭
Edit: Took me about 3.5 hours, everything seems to be working fine. I have never done anything like this before, the greatest amount of work ive done is cleaning the bolt assembly of an ar15. The actual hardest part was not doing what this guy did where he put the back side on the hook first and then you kinda bend the metal band to get the trigger on. Also it felt good that you take more parts out then needed to be put back in 😅 !
Edit: Potential issue im looking at??? Racking is a little bit harder then i remembered it (I only had to rack the gun like 10 times before). There was a FAQ about not being able to rack but that peg is no longer there / isnt as big as the picture and didnt notice a difference playing with it. My TP9 was also covered in grease out of the factory (I hate to sound like a teenager, but the interior was coated with a thick viscous white grease). Im gonna keep looking at this or just rack this shit like 1000 times and see whats up but im done for today.
Edit Edit: After 30 minutes I was racking like normal, I think the lube settled in and honestly my hands were hurting after install so I feel good after install.
Ordered a TP9 recently: was wondering the type of 9mm yall run. Plan to pick up a suppressor as well. Two questions:
From what I read on some other posts and comments in the B&T subreddit, is to run a 1000 rounds of round point, before running flat nose through it.
