Evil gun buying

Post by lawrnk »

Ok, I've bumped up my pre-obama gun acquisition and picked these up six this last week. OK, so the ruger isn't evil, but the hi cap mags are! :roll:
Thank God Hillary and Obama are going to ban .22 mags! :banghead:
Still seeking Krink, Noveske complete lower, or Dragunov if someone has a lead on those.

I see the sub gun now. the top one is still the white x. How do you like the sub? I looked at one like that, but went with the CX4 Storm in .45.

Actually, since you mention it, I should do a range report here. Its great for concealment in a duffle, but in the end, it's a keltec. Inexpensive, plastic, effective, and likely to be banned. The latter is the primary reason I bought it.

This is the CX4 I bought. Sorry, dont have any pics handy. I got it at ProDefense in Webster for 575.00. They have it in 9mm and .40SW as well, and I cant remember the price, but its cheaper than Academy. Last time I was there, they had about a half dozen on the wall.

The 9mm version uses the same magazines as the M9/P92FS. The .40 uses the same mag as the PX4 if Im not mistaken. I would have gone with the .40 for more capacity, but I have a weakness for all things .45 :fire

Sorry to hijack thread, but why buy a semi-auto in a pistol caliber? What advantage is there to it?

In my opinion, Beretta really screwed up the marketing of the CX4.

The 9mm was offered on the 92 platform AND the Cougar platform.

The .40 was offered on the 96 platform AND the Cougar platform.

The .45 was only offered on the Cougar platform and to my knowledge, never with more than an 8 rd mag.

Then they spin off the Cougar line to the Stoeger division.

I really wanted one in .45 if only it had been offered with more mag capacity.

I'd be willing to bet that some purchasers thought they were getting one thing only to find they got something else.

Imagine the person who carried a 92 or 96 and wanted a matching carbine finding out they bought something that used Cougar mags.

Oh, and when they came out with the PX4, I asked Beretta if it used the same mags as the CX4, another possibility of a matched set.

I was informed that the mags required an adapter as they would not interchange directly.

Beretta has a bunch of clowns doing their marketing!

Dare I assume you mean a long gun? I got my AR in 9mm because the mag size is easier for me to manipulate, it is the same caliber as my carry pistol, and I can shoot it at ranges that won't allow rifle calibers.

The real reason is that it is way cool and I like it! :anamatedbanana

Well..technically this would be a carbine. I think it is a comfortable size, the handgun ammo is cheap compared to rifle ammo, it is designed for around 25 yards, it uses mags that I already own for my glock, and most importantly, the gun looks pretty cool and evil! :reddevil

Nice collection. I have been doing the same thing. The ATF will be knocking on my door any day now. It must look like I am building an army to them. :biggrinjester:
