stonegraham Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hi all, I know everyone has a bucket list of some gun, hand gun or other. My question is: When you realize your bucket list handgun, are you satisfied after waiting all that time to get your gun? (Mine, on bucket list, Luger P08) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Depends. For me, does it shoot up to expectations? Is the quality meet the standard it should have? My bucket list of guns has dwindled but I imagine the ones I still lust over would make me warm and fuzzy hitting the bang switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have .40 Smith and Wesson M & P which I enjoy playing with, but I'm a lot my accurate with my 45 ACP Springers... the 460 is capable of some real fire power, a very cool round, and that little hog leg ought to keep you entertained!

DNP Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 Nope. Gotta beat a safe queen. It would be like having a Ferrari just sit in the garage. What kind of center of uranus does that? Get out and use it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgecrusher Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 So if you hang around this crew long enough you will be rich in guns and poor in the bank account. Currently I’m listing after the Staccato XC. Also a Korth NXS 8 shot in 6” with their compensator. Or a Nitehawk TRS Comp. Alas, I will be attempting to acquire SIG 320 X5 Legion before years end, I really liked the way it shot and it’s much closer to my budget. Which is nill.

Radioactive Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 Not that I need another round to load for but I always wanted a 1911 in 38 super. Any one of the custom guys make 1911’s I’d be satisfied with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any one of the custom guys make 1911’s I’d be satisfied with. Here's basically what I started with, a Rock Island Armory 38 Super that a friend of mine picked up on a trade and let me have for $200; I had the grips and trigger on my bench and picked up a few more parts from Brownells. Fitted everything and did a relief cut under the trigger guard and checkered the frontstrap and did a nice 4# trigger job on it. Trigger group is all RIA parts except for the Commander hammer, and they cleaned up really well for a great trigger pull. I did a quick black parkerizing job on it (functional as hell but not real pretty) and put it all back together. This is the finished gun with about $400 total in it; I hadn't even shot it after I parkerized it and reassembled it. Matt got to break it in for me! That RIA barrel seems to be really accurate.
