Re: Beretta Tomcat cracked frame

I have one that my wife bought me when I completed basic infantry school way back in 99 that the frame has cracked on. I just shot them an email, we'll see how this goes.

Re: 7.62X39

I just got 1k of Tula 124gr hp for 229 shipped from sgammo.com. Not too bad.

Replica M1 Carbine paratrooper stock Austin

Going back to the original stock on my Carbine, so its time for some one new to get this stock. I'm not sure of the manufacture, but its really nice walnut, also built with the original war time rivets instead of the brass ones you see now. Asking 150 ftf in the Austin area, prefer not to ship. Will...

Century Arms M1 Garand for sale Austin area

I've got an old Century arms Garand that I would like to part with. It's built on Centurys cast receiver, and has an issue with stripping rounds off the clip. Honestly I've had it for years and never really messed with it. It is quite accurate and fun to shoot, but a bit rough around the edges (like...

Re: Weapon suggestions for the wife?

She's good with the trigger on most pistols, DA revolvers are a no go though.

Re: Weapon suggestions for the wife?

Update! We mastered slide racking tonight! She can rack the slide on the PM9 easily now, and if she can manipulate that, she can manipulate anything. Her method of choice is to lock both arms out straight and pivot her upper body, works like a charm, and seemed to improve her confidence a bit. :thum...

Re: Weapon suggestions for the wife?

I actually have a PM9, and I think it's a great little gun, especially when paired with a CB Minituck. The wife hasn't shot it yet, but maybe we'll make a range trip this weekend.

Re: Weapon suggestions for the wife?

The decision will be all hers, as buying a gun really is a very personal thing, and the more she likes her new gun, the more inclined she'll be to go shoot/carry it. We're in the Round Rock area, and I've been suggesting that she go to a shoot with the Girl and a Gun club, but her confidence with a ...

Weapon suggestions for the wife?

Well, last weekend whilst watering the front yard, my wife had an enlightening experience. Nothing really bad, but she has grasped the concept of situational awareness, and may have avoided a confrontation with some bad guys by getting back in the house before anything happened. Since then she has d...

Engraving needed in Austin.

I need to get some NFA engraving done on an ak i have and was hoping to find some one locally who can do it. Anyone have a suggestion? I also need some drilling and tapping done on it as well, so if both can be done together that would be a big plus.

Austin IDPA match this weekend

Is anyone going to the IDPA match this Saturday? I'd like to go just to watch, so I know what to expect when I shoot at the next match. Anything I should know before just showing up? :tiphat:

Re: Anyone carry at their job?

Yep, 24/7. My boss keeps a pistol gripped 12ga. on the side of his desk, so if it were to come to light, I don't think it would be a big deal.
