Weight kinda goes out the window when looking for scopes. In reality, it doesn't matter much, besides humping the weight - it's centered over the middle of the gun, so it doesn't affect too much in gun-handling - unless it's an absolute brick. They're all gonna be a pound or two. If you want something that will do everything that the gun is capable of, look at the Primary Arms 3~18 SLX line. THey'll have a reticle that will work for you, no matter what, and it'll run you about $500. https://www.primaryarms.com/rifle-scopes/brand/primary-arms/magnification/3x-18x

It's just piling up...

Yep,when we got them, slide life was estimated at 5k rounds. Then the safety memos came out - Slide life is 2,500 rounds. Then another memo came out - Slide life is 1,250 rounds, and they'll start cracking, slides coming apart... Beretta won the contract, immediately built a factory in Brazil in order to produce them cheaper, and fulfilled the initial contract. They then sold that factory to Taurus, and Taurus walked in and started making the PT-92 right away. Taurus did 3 important thing - (1) changed the slide materials, completey, and offered a lifetime guarantee on the slide, then, (2) they moved the safety to the frame, where it belongs, and (3) got rid of that de-cocking bullshiit. I bought my PT-92 in 1991, took it out on it's first range outing that weekend, and sent 2,200 rounds through it. I still have it to this day.

I love these two - they are hilarious...

@sketch -enlighten , man - What would Sketchy Do?...

Completely see my brother doing shiit like this for a test. Already seen him do it, for a lube test...

@BrianK, that is an awesome update, man...

HELL YES, REX!!!

It's really not even a thing - it's super easy to do. So, let's do it, and solve the problem here...

Not only is Sydney Sweeney hawt as fawk, and blowing up Liberal Minds right now... She's a (R), ... AND! She can shoot... Taran Butler had her out to his property - he get's all the Hotties... Check this out... 😍

I bet I can find 1400hp from ONE LS7 engine...

Bro... You know my rule - You DON'T complicate shiit with complicated shiit... I'd rather build another 3-rotor RX-7 engine, and twin turbo it, than TOUCH Rob Dahm's 12-rotor experiment...

@JBMatt, check the above post...

So, I've told you guys for years that the SDTF is on BLM Land. I happen to work on the UTV that the BLM Agent personally has - that is assigned to our land area. Found that out about 5 or 6 years ago. We are ALWAYS Good To Go at SDTF. Because of Paul. So, he always tells me about all the crazy shiit he gets detailed on, like dune season, etc. He's been detailed to Burning Man for a few years now. I found this Gold Mine... Here's the vid: Just got off the phone with him, now his son is into doing some long range shooting - We'll see Paul more, and his son. Paul has also been picked up as an Instructor at Thunder Ranch, on his off-time. Definitely more to follow. Small World - in the Bigger Picture...

You guys ever seen the Hartley Racing Engines design? It's 2 Hyabusa engines grafted into a V8. 2.6L, 13k rpm. Fukkin monster...

I don't even know where to start - those are all epic. Very Epic.

This cook has my attention - and he's hilarious!...

This all goes back to the P320 shiit... https://www.usacarry.com/glock-coa-pistols-pulled-from-civilian-market-rumors-tie-move-to-p320-troubles/ Glock COA Pistols Pulled from Civilian Market — Rumors Tie Move to P320 Troubles Reports have surfaced indicating that Glock has indefinitely paused civilian-market sales of its COA-equipped pistols to reserve production capacity for military contracts. The affected models—including 9 mm variants outfitted with the Aimpoint COA optic via the new A-CUT mounting system - will no longer be available to the public until further notice. Glockstore posted the following announcement in full: BREAKING NEWS: We’ve received news that all Glock COA models have been cancelled for the civilian market indefinitely to fill military orders. We don’t know if this means the US military or elsewhere but have heard rumors this could be related to the M17/P320. We expect the limited remaining supply to go very quickly and that no new COA models will hit the market any time soon. The mention of the M17/P320 is notable given recent events. The U.S. Air Force Global Strike Command has paused use of the M18 pistol—part of the P320 family—after an airman’s death at F.E. Warren Air Force Base. While the investigation is ongoing, the pause reflects broader safety concerns that have also led some agencies to ban all P320 variants from service. Industry speculation suggests these developments could be pushing military and law enforcement agencies to consider alternative platforms. Redirecting Glock COA production to fulfill those potential orders could explain the sudden halt in civilian availability. I actually had one of these COA-equipped Glocks for a while and just sent it back to Glock last week. Now, with this news, I’m wishing I’d tried to buy it. I really liked it—out of the box with a factory-installed Aimpoint red dot that was rock-solid and reliable. Moves like this are a reminder of how quickly civilian access to advanced firearms technology can disappear when military demand ramps up. The COA’s integrated optic system is a nice convenience for defensive shooting, and while there are still plenty of other quality options out there, it was appealing to have a factory-ready setup like this available to the civilian market.

Hell yeah, @Albroswift - great info, brother!

@Madhouse, I love it...

SIG turning? Doubt it. More smoke and mirrors, and bullshiit out of whatever-company of them is making this statement...

`Correct. This thread explains all about it, and it's why I recommended you read it in the first place. If you're a good carpenter - measuring isn't new to you. For this, you just need different tools. Harbor Freight digital calipers and drill bit are perfectly fine, to get to the conclusion. Here's why all this shiit really matters: You've just been given a plethora of information - I suggest you read it. It explains all of what's has been discussed. ALL of it.

I'm on the Old-ish Skool MX kick today (that's what is is now). Ricky Carmichael. The GOAT.
