What's funny about that graph is while shooting the P365, I was landing in the area that correlates with too little trigger finger & tightening fingers but if I was to add any more finger I'd be damn near at the 1st finger crease
These hoes all dressed up, with no where to go... Hyve Technologies extended mag bases, releases, and monarch triggers on the Hellcat and P10s

Went to the range today & tried the Sig P365 XL. I was very impressed with how easy it was too shoot & didn't have as much recoil as I thought it would based on its size. Definitely no where near as snappy as the Hellcat is. I do have to get used to its grip size though. My shots were off & the rso was like a lot of ppl hold it in a way where their grip is so full that their trigger finger is deeper into the trigger area than it should be resulting in imprecise results. Gonna go back to the range on Friday & try it out again. It'll probably end up being my CCH piece as soon as I get my damn CCH permit.
I only use the 1st pad of my finger & never close enough for the 1st crease to touch the triggerDo you only use the first pad on your finger or are you hooking the trigger? May help. I can’t find enough ammo to fire the Hellcat yet but some regular 9mm rounds fell out the sky so hopefully soon. Mfs buying ammo like toilet paper when Covid hit![]()
I use a bore snakes for quick cleaning. After shooting at the range, I'll run a bore snake through it to get rid of the powder and copper right there. But, for thorough cleanings, I'll use a bore-guide (for rifles) a Dewey cleaning rod, and a Parker-Hale jag. I don't use brass brushes at all, I use nylon brushes.
Some solvents can be hard on your barrels, so I don't use anything too strong. If you clean your weapons on the regular, you won't have to use harsh solvents.
How bad are the Turkish shotguns?...not a gun guy but got some quality handguns and am looking for a shotgun to supplement home defense...not willing to spend big money on carbines but those are great...only thing I see in the stores here are TriStar, Rock Island and some other cheap Turkish joints...wont be going to the range every minute with these things...just going enough times so they don't end up scaring me when I gotta fire them...would yall have reasonable confidence that they won't fail you if something actually goes down?....should I say fuck it and just depend on the handguns I already got?
Turkish shotguns selling in the 300s....carbines not available and am on a list to get notified when they show up whenever that is...live in the DMV but not in the V so you already know its restrictiveCarbines aren’t that expensive. This covid shit got mfs on panic mode. Which has jacked up prices. What you got again? I don’t remember

Yeah by time I came back the next day the Rock Island was gone but even without knowing much about shotguns, it felt better than the TriStar....fuck it, better to have something that's so-so instead of nothing at all...I'll check the store out this week and see what they gotThere's not much that can go wrong with a pump shotgun. They either work or they do not. With that said, I'd go the Rock Island M5 route over any of the others mentioned. Straight out of the box, inspect all of the moving parts, clean, lube, test with a few different ammo types. Note which ammo it cycles reliably , practice more with said ammo. Purchase a stockpile of said ammo (100+ rounds). Shotgun ammo is abundant currently in most places that I frequent, so obtaining a couple 100 rounds should be fairly easy.
I'm in the belief that a shotgun is an important part of one's HD arsenal. It's like the multi tool of the fire arms world.
I got one...what you need to know?anybody have experience with Dracos?

Build yourself an AR pistol...Currently debating on what to get as a trunk gun. Any suggestions?
I already have a PSA lower with a sharkfin brace. I wanna use it for a 300 blackout build but just waiting for prices to normalize somewhat. I did have my eye on the Ruger PC Charger but I just watched 2 videos today where it randomly had feed malfunctions during 1st mag sessions.Build yourself an AR pistol...![]()
I know 2 guys with Dracos, and they said they wouldn't recommend it.I have one as well. The short of the long story on drums is, don't do it! I have a surplus Romanian drum. It functions flawlessly, but it is a chore to load and very impractical. If it was attached to a title II AK it would be worth the hassle, but on a semi not so much.
** Note, If you're a freak for pain, grab a Century Arms Romanian clone drum. They are known to function well in Draco's.

Why don't you sell it then if it's so bad. Rather than just have it sit and collect dust trade it in for something else that you could use and enjoy.The PC Charger is a hunk of shit, save your money. I shot mine once, and tossed that shit in the back of the safe. Now that I think of it, I need to take my red dot off of that bitch.
I have a TLX and for the most part stays in my garage at night. Since it doesn't come with a spare, the area where a spare would usually be placed is instead occupied by a split bin. One half of the bin contains a tire refill kit and the other is open as a storage bin. I wanna use that area for the trunk gun. I gotta measure it out and plan to put foam inserts inside so whatever I put in there won't move around.A 8" .300 Pistol would be an awesome "trunk gun". Are you planning on leaving it in the vehicle fulltime? I don't have the testicular fortitude for that cowboy shit. I'm way too paranoid, that someone will bag my shit and commit a crime with it.

Wow but shouldn't consignment at a FFL relieve you of that responsibility?I never sell or trade guns. Once upon a time, the ATF, and local sheriff paid me a visit at the crib. Apparently, the Taurus 1911 that I traded a dude for a G21, was found in a stolen car that some kids crashed into a house. Turns out the gun wasn't used in a crime, but It was an eye opening experience to say the least. Nope... my peace of mind is worth more than what I may recoup on already spent money. I have met a few others, that have had similar experiences
