  2. Taurus PT-111 Millennium G2 9mm - New Toy

    in Firearms & Hunting

    Posted

    Nice Shuan, let us know how it shoots!

     

    I go for my LEOSA Re-Cert on Tuesday and will use my Shield 40. The weather guessers are saying it's suppose to be nice so I hope to be able to get some more trigger time in on my new M&P40 M2.0, and maybe some rounds down the pipe of my M&P40 Hybrid...(full size slide on a compact frame).

     

    Happy PewPewPew'ing! :laugh:

    I will do!!!! ... Yeah, 2 days after purchasing this one, S&W put out a $75 rebate on the Shield series. Dropping many to around $250.

     

    Shit, my wife doesn't know about this one yet, so I better not buy 2 so close together. ... lol

    My new little off duty pocket gun - Taurus PT-111 Millennium G2 - 9mm, 12+1 ...

     

    I picked it up at my FFL on Monday ... This gun has a lot of nice features, especially for the price. Came with 2 12rd magazines. Has an internal locking mechanism to complete lock out the gun. Polymer body and grip, has a "loaded chamber" external indicator. Has a small pickatiny rail for a laser.

     

    It truly is a solid little gun for only $216.00 shipped ... absolutely an insane price (kygunco.com). Lots of YouTube videos that gives the gun decent reviews.

     

    Sadly, it's not a MA compliant gun. Only Law Enforcement officers can own in MA, unless you previously own and then move to MA. But that being said, I'm exempt.

  6. PSA 18" .223 Wylde - AR-15

    Posted

    Looks good. Love my PSA upper. I have a 15" M-Lok rail chambered in 5.56. Have you noticed any price decreases since the election, or pretty stable?

    Everything has stayed pretty much the same. As usual, PSA only puts out a few products at a time. So they always appear to be Sold Out.

    Damn the stock and grip look bad aSS!

    Can't wait to see your charging handle. I been thinking about picking one up also

     

    PSA has quality stuff. They are super easy to assemble with minimal tools. I've literally spent about $35 on special tools, but most you may already have. I just take my time during assembly. Don't want to rush, or mark up my lower.

     

    Get them now .... you'll be happy you did. :thumbs:

    My third AR is complete ... took about 1 3/4 hrs to assemble.

     

    With a few extras, I'm into this one for around $700.00.

     

    Palmetto State Armory (PSA) - 223 Wylde 18" Stainless Steel 1/7 Twist, Nickel Boron BCG, 15" free float Keymod rail, Bravo Company B5 Typhon furniture, Ambidextrous Safety switch. I have a Skeletonized Ambidextrous Charging handle that arrives tomorrow.

  13. my pre Hillary purchases

    in Firearms & Hunting

    Posted

    Don't be jealous. I should rename this thread to "Hillary scare foolishness". I ended up building 3 more AR's, stocked up on ammo, and 30 rd mags for the AR's and my glock 19. I figured all that stuff would go up in value if she got elected, which I was convinced she'd win. I'm glad she didn't but it will probably be at least 4 years before I can make any money off the stuff.

     

    Anybody need a AR-15. lol

    I just have all my Gun parts, mags and ammo shipped to my buddy's house 4 miles away in Vermont. Wow, that was hard. I thwarted the system. ... lol

    That's a good looking truck for a non SS Shuan. I'll bet that the supervisor is counting the years till it becomes his.

     

     

    She's back in good graces, you should have seen her a few months ago ...

     

    She got wiped out on my way home from work, back in June. It was 11:05pm and I had a deer run out, and run directly into the passenger side of the truck. The deer's head hit my R Headlight and busted that, along with denting the RF Fender. The RF door got a small ripple in it. The RR door and C-Post were completely demolished. The RR Bedside was also rippled hard. Sadly, the deer also shit down the side of my truck as a parting gesture. Just shy of $5000.00 in damages. Truck only had 8500 miles on it.

  18. LED Fog Lights - Weekend Mod

    in Off-Topic/General

    Posted · Edited by Stitches040 (see edit history)

    I have LED headlights and fogs, shine just as bright as HIDs and no need for ballasts. I love them

     

    Looks great on the Denali Shuan!!!

     

    My 2013 ccsb has leds in the fogs and the low beams, I got the 5k color temp fron diode dynamics, had them just over a year now, no complaints. I can't remember the lumen output, but they claim to measure the actual light emitted, not just calculate that 3 leds at 50 lumens per led means 150 output. They have almost a faint purple tint them, but in a way it looks good not cheesy.

     

    Sadly ... Up here in the Northeast, we must go with old school bulbs or the HID's. I need the heat to melt the snow during the storms when I'm driving. LED's don't generate heat, and the cold lenses will just pack over with snow. Eventually, no light will shine through. I had this problem with my 2013 Chrysler 300. The whole back end was LED. During the winter, the whole back end would clog with snow, and you couldn't see the car's lights. LED's are great, but on some bulbs, I need the heat ... LOL

    Hey All ...

     

    After hanging with JF-03-SS this summer, and checking out his fog lights, I finally got around to updating my 2015 GMC Sierra's fog lights ...

     

    I installed a set of Samsung LED Bulbs - 6000K ... Plug and Play, without any issue ...

     

    Just got a set in for the Wife's Yukon Denali (in the background) ... putting them in tomorrow.
