  1. Will those limbsavers work on the youth stock 20g?

     

    Also, I do have a picture of me shooting it, since it was the first time I fired off my very own shotgun. How do you post pics?

     

    And btw, I'm a girl for anyone who was wondering lol.

     

    Clothing optional of course in the pic. :D

  2. (July 26) I was being admitted to Rapid City Regional Hospital in South Dakota with a broken back (fractured T-5 vertebrae) fractured left wrist, and shattered right wrist all of which are now remedied with braces, external fixators, neck / back braces, etc. I was released on Thursday the 29th six days ahead of the preferred release date that Tri-Care-Prime agreed to, and made it back to Pensacola on the 2nd of August. The prognosis is very good for my back and worst wrist, which will resume treatment here that was deferred to by the early departure from SD.... had to get back to work !!:)

     

     

    Never surf porn while mountain climbing........:cool:

  3. Is your m4 a limited edition smoked glass version or something? I don't know how you'd possibly hurt the m4 with a heatgun and a pair of manly hands.

     

    So you held yours in one hand, heated it with the heat gun, then dropped the heat gun and twisted off the tube .....:rolleyes:

  4. Hey All,

     

    I very much appreciate all opinions offered.

     

    I got a chance to rent and shoot the full size Standard USP .45 at a nearby range today.

     

    I like the general feel and ergonomics of the controls except for the mag release as used from the thumb side felt a bit awkward but since getting an XD a few years back I've grown to like using my index finger on the ambidexterous release (a feature I previously never expected to use) Anyway, the USP mag release felt very natural to use from the index finger side.

     

    I thought the trigger was great in SA and the DA felt good to me too although I haven't fired that many DA autos to compare it too. I currently own Glocks and an XD. I owned a few 1911 variants since the late 70s but I'm no longer the 1911 fan that I once was.

     

    I wasn't thrilled with the plain black sights. I would be nice if they had white outline or dots but it looks like they are easily replaced with Trijicons or others.

     

    One thing I didn't like is the empty mag didn't drop away, I'm not sure if that is normal or just because this was a very dirty range rental gun.

     

    I think I'm going to add one of these to the stable but I'm going to try out the USP Expert first to compare, A range /shop about an hour north in San Jose has the expert available for rent

     

    I'll keep you guys posted....

     

    Thanks again for your thoughts

     

    Sorry to burst your bubble Rocket W19. I guess CAs problem with the HK45 is no mag disconnect

     

    And yes Skeeter "Tejas es mas bueno"

     

    later guys,

     

    Hookster :)

     

    Give S&W MP a look. My Son has one and loves it, so do many police departments.......:cool:

  5. Looks like it was re-listed and finally sold for $600. I was really hoping he would get the one grand he originally listed it for.

     

    Oh well...one positive note, I showed my wife the listing after she was mad at me for buying mine from Botach at $225. Her attitude suddenly changed from "Why are you wasting money on guns!" to "Should we buy more gun stuff?"

     

     

    I female speak that meant, never say a word about how many pairs of shoes I have......:p
