No pics but:

H&K P30 9MM for primary and Kahr PM9 for concealed carry. Very hard to beat a Kahr PM9 for concealed carry.

I agree, those things are so small you can put em in your socks lol (not like I would want to anyway). They're pretty accurate for aiming too.

I agree, I will pass on the socks but most days it is in my pocket (in a holster of course). The 9mm is snappy but I am still amazed that such a small gun does not have more of a kick, and as you said, they are accurate as hell for such a small pistol.

What?

Lead poisoning?
Indoor ranges with poor ventillation?

On the line you are getting a pretty good dose, even in busy open ranges.

If you are a regular,....
.... what does it hurt to ask for it to be added to the battery of tests?

hmm well I gotta hand it to u...after reading that article it had me thinking. I might not know much about lead poisoning but being a regular at that range for quite some time now, I can tell u I feel perfectly fine though (physically and mentally). Are the dangers from lead long-term or something? I guess I'll have to bring this up to my doc at my next visit.

Good issue to be brought up nonetheless, thanks.

I think I spend close to $250 on ammo alone in that place lol.

When it comes to ammo, I either reload or order from online vendors.

I don't bother with retail anymore except for my reloading components which consists of just powder and primers. I order brass and bullets online as well as ammo for my AR's and AK's.

My poor mail lady hates it when I have an order of 2-3000 rounds of 5.56, 5.45x39 or 7.62x39 come in. I also order my .45, 9mm and 10mm bullets online. She has to bring them to the door loaded on a hand truck.

I got nothing to brag about. I had a lot of my guns confiscated from HPD pigs 15 years ago. I never gotten them back because they gave me the run around. Those a$$holes.....

Ever tried the New Taurus Slim 709? It has even a lesser kick then the Kahr.

[Wakeup]

As most of you know, I'm a SSG in the Army. As an NCO I could give a shit about flashy, I train as I fight, and if I'm going to the range to spend $.50 every time I pull a trigger I don't want it to be for fun, it's going to be training. When I go to the range at American Shooting Centers I go in full battle rattle, body armor, full kit, Camelback, kevlar helmet and uniform. I don't shoot from the table, I shoot prone, kneeling and standing. If I could do a moving stress shoot out there I would.

My weapons are as close as I can get to my personal issue weapon from the Army as a Squad Designated Marksman.

Colt Match Target M4, 5.56mm. Knights Armaments front rail system. Pentagon Taclight with palm switch and IR filter. Grip Pod Systems front handgrip with extendable bipod. Trijicon 4x32 TA31RCO-M150CP ACOG with killflash. Wolf Hook single point sling adapter. Mag Grip dual magazine holder.



Beretta 92FS, 9mm. Blackhawk S.T.R.I.K.E. SERPA holster with MOLLE attachment.



I shoot military surplus Lake City M855, 62 Grain, Steel Core, Full Metal Jacket ammunition which is what the bullet drop compensator reticle markings in the ACOG are set for, allowing me to engage 90% accurate out to 600 meters, and at 70% on man size targets at 800 meters. The only differences between these weapons and the ones the Army issues me are no 3-round burst on the M4 and neither one have the U.S. government stamps in the side.

do you shop from GunBroker.com? I usually get some sweet deals off of there for pistol and shotgun ammo, not so sure about AK's and AR's though, only because I dont own any.

BTW, I feel sorry for your mail lady lol

I used to hit up gunbroker, but the deals have pretty much dried up there; too many mom n' pop operations wanting sticker price for their hardware. No thanks, if I'm gonna pay sticker, I'd rather head down to Collector's and give them my business.

Now, if I shop online at all, I use:

http://www.galleryofguns.com/genie/default.aspx <-- great site, allows you to search for make and model by zip and it will let you know what local retailers have what you're looking for

and

http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/index.php <-- if you can find better deals online, I'd like to know about them.

[thebodyguard_69]

thanks for those links, I heard of GOG but not Bud's so as I was browsing around on it just now I found a Beretta 92FS in like new condition ($409 shipped) that I might be pretty interested in. Check this out:

fellas is that a good deal?
