Bought this guy last week. 17rd clip and super accurate View attachment 34047

Love my P365 Scorpion AXG. Wished I'd bought 2 so one could be a safe queen.

Building a AR15 pistol for my wife. 11.5" barrel, I'm going to put a vortex RED dot on it. Only thing I want to add is a drop in trigger. It's at the shop now to get a kerocote (sp) in a basic camo and then engraved. Engraving will all be stuff representative of her active military service. I'm pretty excited to see how it turns out. Also bummed as I might knot have time to get my AR10 (for me) to this guy before he closes shop.

WA is loosing dealers, etc., in droves lately. Even businesses that make holsters, belts, etc., are all leaving this state.

Slightly off topic but I saw Washington is trying to ban fur and hair sales which would fuck over fly shops especially my favorite shop Spawn Fly Fish in Ilwaco.

This state is trying so hard to out do Kali it's insane.

They are trying to run all the FFL's now as well.

Any guns a great gun imo. That being said m, anytime Im choosing a handgun I opt for no thumb safety switch.

Agreed, except for the 1911 style pistols which are carried "cocked and locked". It would be beyond dangerous to carry those without a thumb safety properly engaged, IMO. And I have a fondness for those 1911's ...

A bit off topic, but didn't know if this merited it's own thread. Should responsible gun owners be stocking up rn? Looks like ammo prices have returned to something equating to near normalcy. Anyone seeing any great deals?

I always miss the boat when prices skyrocket and I need something. Heaven forbid there will be any other incidents to cause that.

Since I got back into I've kept at least 1,000 rounds of 9mm for range on hand.

For range I've had extremely good luck with Blazer 9mm and have been buying 1,000 rounds for around $.25/.26 round off gunbroker.com after shipping and tax it's usually $290-300 for 1,000 rounds. No issues and I'm through about 1,500 rounds of it. It's been that price since mid-2022.

For AR range ammo I bought PMC which was $.45/round plus shipping and sales tax. The shipping is pretty steep on it.

One of the things that Sam has talked about the last month or so is a looming shortage of one of the ingredients used in the magical fire dust. Production has been impacted by the Russia/Ukraine war, and most of the available product is being steered towards military production vs. the civilian marketplace. Breakdown of a common cartridge for tPBers is shown below:



If you can find it cheap, buy it and stack it deep.

Still wanting to add more to the collection. Any thoughts on 510?

Couple good buddies recently got the 45 version so they could swap out for the 460 upper. 460 is badassery.

That's all I know about that beautiful pistol.

I debated what my next carry gun would be and ultimately decided on the p365 a couple months ago. I like it quite a bit.
Currently using the blazer ammo for target shooting and it’s performed well.
