Qualified with my new S&W BG 2.0 to add to my CCW Permit

It definitely shoots to the left, but once I learned how to adjust for it was spot on. For something so small and light it shoots really well! While shooting it feels like I’m shooting a gun that’s bigger than it actually is.

DONT GO TO GUNWORLD

Gunworld has a Gen 3 spare Glock slide at 499.99$ and the fat guy at the desk said “guns are expensive” …. Mind you the actual Glock store sells them for 340 and gun stores for 350-380 and aimsurplus has the oem glock slides for 299$. Gunworld in Burbank CA is just trying to price up all the new gun owners that don’t know any better making them think their high prices are normal. It’s sad and pathetic.

Bought my first gun

Got it for about $1000 after taxes and everything. What do you guys recommend with it?

It’s the Springfield bundle so it came with a dot optic and 4 magazines. I just picked it up today after the 10 day hold lifted.

Finally got her out of jail

Just picked up my BG. She is stiff af. Only way I can get it to chamber is to lock the slide back then throw in a mag. Then I have to use the stiff slide stop. It jams when I try to pull the slide and release. It only will chamber flat nosed ammo that way. Go break her in soon and throw some HST through it. I hope the flat nosed Remington ammo will cycle. G26 is my normal edc for size comparison. Pic is of it in my pocket. It has a Aholster on it. I sure hope after break in it will chamber by pulling slide back and releasing

P365 Loaded Chamber Indicator Spring: DIY Replacement

I was installing an optic on my Sig P365. I dropped the LCI, and I lost that tiny spring that comes with it. The only replacement I found comes from Sig Guy, but they require the whole 1263 form and stuff, which is an additional $10 but the spring is only $5!

So, I took apart an old lighter, cut up the spring to fit, and installed it. It works fine now. I will likely get a plug soon, so I don't have to keep dealing with this. Note: pen springs are too wide to fit.

Benelli M2 in jail today!!!

I’ve always been more of a handgun guy, but I wanted something totally different

Figured if I was going to add one, I might as well get something I’ll keep forever!

Was looking at M2 and M4 clones.

Saw this at turners brand new for $1099 and couldn’t pass it up!!!

Any recommendations on upgrades? Pic rail? Optics vs ghost sights? Pic rail?

Would love some input from those who already own or clones.

This 10 days is gonna suck!!!

Echelon 4.0

Last week I made a Reddit post saying I wanted a compact handgun for EDC. I said I wanted a Glock 19, but I don’t know if it’s worth paying $1,000+ for a used one here in California. Most people said no. Most recommended the P365 or the Echelon.
I shot the Echelon and liked it, but I only put about 25 rounds through it.
The question I’m asking:
Does anybody here actually EDC this gun? Or have a few thousand rounds through it?
How do y’all like it? Is it reliable? Any problems or things you dislike about it? Has anyone experienced any reliability or safety issues?
Would you still tell me to pick the Glock instead? I’m just looking for a reliable gun that I can trust my life with.

Tenicor Certum Lux4 AIWB with Olight PL-X?

https://preview.redd.it/ujqq3bb4hebh1.jpg?width=1149&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=56e4f11bfe74b26e3e91ea2cd012f7b26e4cc281

Wonder if anyone tried Tenicor Certum Lux4 with Olight PL-X yet ? does it kinda fit but not secure or does it actually click into space and secure? Some said with bigger spacer would fit but i don't want it to be loose and just sitting in there, thanks for your help.

Newest Member of the Family

In jail, is a Browning Buckmark Camper Ufx, I'm really stoked about this one. I didn't get it because it's the cheapest, I wanted it and treated myself.

Calling all Buckmark Nerds. Where do I start. The daydreaming has begun! What upgrades, what order? What's yours look like.

Also, as much as I don't like Sportsman's Warehouse, this paperwork session was by far, my best experience there to date.

Pic. Looks oily, from the factory.

Might sell my Glocks

I'm wondering what the reactions to this will be. I have five Glocks. They are all G3, except for a 43XMOS that my son got for me when he lived in Arizona. All totally legal, straight up stuff. I like them a lot. Totally reliable. I shoot the 19 pretty well. Not a great shot overall, but good enough I think. I also really like the 26. Significantly more than the 43X. But that's been hashed out in a separate forum many times. The reason for my thoughts is simply this. The prices here are insane for used Glocks. Way more than they worth. Also I don't need five. I actually need two. There are many new guns on the roster that offer at least as much, and probably more. I am loath to give Sig any money but must admit that the 365 is probably better than my 43X. I don't shoot that one particularly well. If I keep my Glocks, when I renew my CCW early next year, I will substitute the 26 for the 43X on my permit. I shoot the 26 better and it is much more pleasant to shoot as well. It's concealable in my opinion. But the Smith & Wesson M&P 2 compact doesn't give up much if anything compared to the G3 Glock 19. And the 365 doesn't give up anything to the 43X. At least not as I can tell. So tear it up, down me, whatever you will. Just thinking along those lines at the moment.

Edited to add: I am not selling anything here at all. I won't respond to anybody asking to buy mine. That's an absolute. This is just for discussion.

Added a S&W BG 2.0 to my carry rotation. Crazy how small & light this is!

Excited for this new addition to my carry roster. Can’t wait to actually put some rounds through it. Never fired a 380 before, how is it?

Rost Martin issue

Was curious about the Rost Martin RM1S comp. Ive heard great things on this subreddit and online about it and it’s not super expensive so I went for it.
Picked it up yesterday and went to the range today with it.

Had two issues with it.

  1. Every other mag, I got a jam. Spent casing would eject new round would go in the chamber followed by another round that was attempting to chamber as well. Didn’t matter which of the 4 mags it was, or the different grains I ran, continued to do it.

  2. Dude at rifle gear told me that it has a super grainy trigger and to upgrade that asap because it’s due to the ca mag disconnect. Told him that I didn’t know how LASD would feel about that on my ccw and all.
    He was right. Was pretty grainy but I thought maybe after after 500 it would loosen up a bit. Felt like it got worse.

There was even times where I had to physically push the trigger forward to be able to fire off another round.

Don’t know if this has to do with anything either but I’ve heard that the rifling in the barrel is supposed to stop at the comp/port, but mine goes all the way through. And did see a few copper shavings at the table after I was done at the range.

Wondering if anyone has any ideas or recommendations.
I didn’t expect a ton from a new company and on the cheaper end of a firearm, just a little disappointed after reading all the people on here that were satisfied with theirs after spending some time with them.

I did send an email to Rost Martin today after explaining as well and will hopefully hear from them in the week.
