I bought a 43 and it would have been perfect but my sister “borrowed it indefinitely”. I got. 43x and sold it when the 43x mos came out and I like it. I also have a SIG P365. I have carried both in pockets. I do have a Beretta 21A which is tiny but I try not to carry the .22. I usually the SIG for pocket carry.
I ordered a 42 direct from Glock in June to try. It hasn’t shipped yet. They told me up to 6 months.


stupid me, saw Springfield Prodigy mags on sale so I bought a bunch. I haven't even decided if I'm buying the gun yet. lol

My EDC is a sig p365. Right size. I hated carrying a full size.

I shot that same model usp at the range last week. I was VERY impressed with it.

It will happen again next year. Bigger and better. The dates haven't been announced yet, but probably around late July or early August.

Only for the 365 family of pistols. Stock, optic, and open divisions. Similar to IDPA, but more relaxed and fun. Appendix carry allowed and IDPA "shoot me" vests discouraged.

So here I am...after the class: 3hours: 2 safety and 1 shooting, I love it!

Anyone else into it? My first gun is a Glock 19, 9mm. It's very cliche to buy a Glock but I fired a lot of guns at the class and it just "felt" great...I had to have it.

Any one else into it?
Been shooting since I was 10 years old. Own multiple, shotguns, rifles, pistols, revolvers, AR'S, Garands and M1 Carbine. It's a passion that I thoroughly enjoy as much as cars.

You're spot on! What are our options other than cash?!? I think MC, VISA and AMEX pretty much have the monopoly on credit cards.

My understanding is pay less than 9999.99 after taxes.

I am 99% sure this is how they cracked down on organized crime etc. What law abiding citizen needs more than 10k in cash to buy X. Only Gangstas have that money lying around!!!!

Hence the need to 'wash' money.

Offering my 2 cents here - it's not so much the 10,000 limit per transaction now (and by now, I mean in the past few years)
It's trend-spotting now - using AI, ML, all sorts of automation shit.
So it's not an arbitrary number any more - it's looking for spikes and trends...

In other words, that won't cut it.

Hey fellas,

Considering a nice / cool / unique PCC chambered in .45

Top 2 candidates at the moment are the KRISS Vector and the CZ Scorpion. Having a hard time settling on one and usually I'm more decisive in the kind of matters. Any suggestions based on experience and or familiarity would be appreciated.

If you have suggestions outside of my current top picks, I'm always open minded so those comments would be appreciated, as well.

TIA.

Personally I would prefer the Vector, there are plenty abilities to mod or change parts due to a big market for this weapon.
Tbh I have not too much experience with the CZ.

Use personal checks or cash. Let's see 'them' try to 'outlaw' personal checks..

Vector has many PROs , especially compatibility with Glock magazines which are inexpensive and easily acquired. I'm definitely into modularity, as well.

Finally joined the red dot club. I daily carry a P365 SAS I love, but even those great sights make me strain - hoping the red dot a cowitness supporessor height sights will be the perfect combo for my blind ass. That is if they don't dig into my waist with my normal appendix carry.

We're about to find out. P365X Romeo Zero Elite LE model (with 3 mags). So far I am liking the feel. I'll keep the SAS till I am sure.
