    I was on-board with their tacticool lever-gat silliness, proprietary magazine and all even if I would've grumbled about it, on the assumption it was under half that. Like...High hundreds I understand and would be amenable towards--probly wouldn't buy because I'm a cheapskate, but the thought...

    Just 'cuz the above came up in a different thread and I didn't wanna continue the derail there. Pretty sure this'll ping the folks referenced, but just in case @LordsFire I would emphasize that SERPA holsters should probably be avoided--there was a big dust-up about them that has resulted in...

    Honestly, the main point of sale I can see--being something of a total ignoramus on bullpups--is how well it'd fit as a Halo cosplay-piece for the funsies of it. It's got that big, battle-rifle energy. Admittedly, since I haven't followed development of it basically at all, upon first being...

    Mentioned earlier that Springfield Armory was making a Hi Power clone, and I was extremely interested. So prinCZess spent November and December on mailing lists from online sellers for one of the things, and regularly peeking-in at new arrivals in the pistol case at a handful of local FFLs...

    I lack bail money, but I do have the good advice dear old daddy gave me: To make sure you never need bail money, don't break the law don't get caught.

    Never handled a 365, but a friend runs a Hellcat pretty regularly with her and she has only good things to say about it. The times we've swapped-out on the range it functioned well for me and was pretty comfortable in my (smaller) hands--and cool to have the capacity it does in something so...

    Yeah, probably going to. Put myself on mailing lists at a few places for one, and'll probably investigate around local shops over the weekend 'cuz...Yeah. I want. And this actually made me smack my head and firmly settle on 'want' because it didn't occur to me and of course I could. Think...

    prinCZess grew up shooting a Browning Hi-Power (very occasionally...too occaisonally) of her pop's that ended up getting sold, and desperately wanted a new one before they discontinued 'em in 2018, but there were so many other things to spend money on and it was mostly a vanity thing. She never...

    Henry is the one I have been hearing as the go-to in recent years--and have also heard the same thing about Marlin's quality and service going down. Have heard some people saying good things and others badmouthing Winchester so...dunnow about that one either way (and, in truth, am only passing...

    Guessing 22's. When the one she keeps going with locks-back it has that goofy middle-of-the-slide action on it that some folks use on their semi 22 pistols. So...I mean, I suppose if anyone wanted to be real pedantic and no-fun they could clutch pearls and say she shouldn't have dropped the one...

    Unless they've declined from the ~$400 they were running...they seem kind've an expensive toy that I'd have questions as to the reliability/ease-of-use in general and how much they'd mangle accuracy in use (I cannot imagine that what seems like a bump-trigger type of thing would be very helpful...

    Went to a gunshow the other day. This is very accurate. Entry-ARs of the S&W, Sig, or Palmetto State variety are 400 or 500 dollars more expensive than they were before Wuhan flu. I haven't actually juggled numbers, but I'm 90% sure that someone is better off from a price-inflated to quality...

    I am...utterly and completely baffled at what PR-intern running the ATFs Twitter-feed thought THAT was a good idea. It is nearly-inconceivable they are unaware of how often and loudly the agency is shit on using that format... ... Unless Mr. PR-intern is aware, and underneath his glowy exterior...

    Maybe it's the flair of the exotic and uncommon, but they're very pretty-looking guns. Cool from a historical perspective, too. And anything with roller-delayed blowback has always piqued my curiosity just because...Well, exotic and uncommon again, and while I'm basically terrible with...

    Neat to see tinkering still happening, especially when he's apparently been doing it for...six years now? Seven? I mean, I'm no one to talk about procrastination or taking too long to do things, but still... Independent of that, boy is it sad how his timing is just garbage. Even presuming the...

    A competitor to the 5-7 is nice to see. Maybe it can inspire some price competition, because the thing has always seemed overpriced to me even as I'm tempted by its cute little cartridges. Then again, FN seems to have a bad habit of going the H&K route in their pricing...Though I've heard less...

    So here's a softball-pitch to folks on the general topic: Do you have any idiosyncrasies or particular things/manufacturers/etc. you look for or enjoy in firearms? Have a company you have slavishly devoted yourself to defending no matter what (or, alternatively, to shaming whenever possible)...
