Starting my 10 day wait of these 2 Dirty Harry revolvers. A 1957 Pre Model 29 6.5 inch and a 1968 4 inch Colt Python. I always wanted the 4 inch python after seeing the Dirty Harry sequel Magun Force.

Hey guys! So I just got my final approval for my CCW, my investigator had called me on the 15th of this month telling me she put my CCW permit in the mail that day. Does anyone know if permitium order tracker updates and lets you know when it gets mailed out? I’m guessing I had missed the cutoff to get mine mailed out on the 15th since I haven’t received anything as of today.

As title says. More fun / curiosity question than anything else.

With all the newer polymer pistols now available on the California Roster from Sig, Walther, M&P, H&K, Springfield, and others, I keep asking myself if any of them are actually worth switching to. For me, so far, the answer is no. Not because I’m a hardcore Glock fanboy - I’m not. I own and have shot CZs, H&Ks, Walthers, Springfields, Sigs, and others. But in California, Glock made the most sense when I started: affordable, available, reliable, and well-supported. Over time, I built heavily into that ecosystem with mags, holsters, optics, spare parts, support gear, training, practice, and competition time. At this point, Glocks just feel natural and seamless for me.

That’s where I have trouble justifying a switch. Most newer service pistols do not give me a significant performance advantage, and with California’s magazine disconnects, extra 11% tax, and the added cost of mags, holsters, optics setups, parts, and time needed to get equally comfortable, the value just isn’t there. I also prefer keeping my pistols mostly OEM, aside from grip tape, slide milling, and optics, so buying something new just to start messing with internals to disable the disconnect does not appeal to me. I have not bought a new handgun in years, not because there is nothing good out there, but because nothing has offered enough of a real advantage to justify buying into another platform.

At this point, instead of another polymer pistol that does more or less the same thing, I’m starting to think I should just save up for a 2011 and get something that actually feels like a different category altogether.

Thoughts?

Excited for these to come in

Threw in the mystery shirt for shits and giggles plus we the people had a 30 percent of code

Is a dealer exempt from AB 1263 if they are selling items on a peer to peer site like TacSwap or GafsHub? My understanding is that I’m a dealer and selling items as a dealer then I must follow the laws. What is your understanding? TIA

​If you had a $5,000 out-of-state gift budget for 1–3 off-roster handguns, what would you get?

​My dad lives in Arizona and has been dealing with major health issues for years. He’s currently waiting on a heart transplant, and feeling his mortality, he wants to gift me a few handguns since he knows how much I love shooting.

​Considering what’s already in my safe and the fact that I’ve wanted a P226 for a while, here is my top 3:

​Sig Sauer P226 X-Five Legion

​S&W M&P9 Competitor HD

​S&W M&P9 Metal Carry Comp (Full-Size)

​Curious to hear what you guys would pick.

Edit: I have an AR pistol, a bunch of ARs, a Shadow 2, and a Staccato XC among other handguns.

Trying to see where everyone is at with their timeline. I had my interview june 8th and uploaded certificates June 28. Been 4 weeks after uploading, no progress

Longest 10 days of my life, but they’re finally home!

Second pic is the SP5 next to my AP5P. Difference in quality of finish is insane.

Time to hunt down a PWS MK111 mod 2 and DD MK18 upper

Hey yall, so I’ve been doing some research on conversion cylinders for black powder revolvers (specifically a pietta 1851 .36 cal colt navy which I’ll be getting soon) and I know that once you put a cylinder that accepts modern metallic cartridges, it is no longer classified as an antique firearm, and could be considered a ghost gun. But if I want to install one legally, what would be the process? The big questions I have is the frame of black powder revolvers usually have factory serial numbers already engraved, would it be possible to “apply for a unique sn” with that number? Also, because it’s single action does that make it exempt from the roster?

And for additional context, I am above the age of 21, I already have my fsc and multiple other guns that are registered to me. And I’m NOT someone who is prohibited to possess a standard firearm

Got bit by the gun bug.

SW MP15 Sport III
Mossberg 940 SPX
Glock 45 Gen 6
SW MP 2.0 Full
Sig Sauer P320 X5 Legion
Sig Sauer P365X Macro

looks cool

I recently took a ccw class and was disappointed to find that I was the best shooter taking the class by far. Unfortunately the instructors' drills were limited by the newer shooters. We could've been running and gunning but ended up just doing standard stand and present type shooting.

All in all though I'd say it was a successful class, I only got flagged once. Still my experience was relatively mild, so I'm curious to see some of the crazy things that people do in a ccw class

Ive just got back into firearms and im looking to fill out my collection. Right now i have 3 handguns so im good on that aspect and 1 AR but its in 300blackout which is not that good for distance so ive been told. Anyways im looking to Get a Shotgun, another good AR or Ak and a lever action specifically 1895 marlin bc its always been my favorite gun. I need opinions on what guns would be good within my budget range. Shotgun:400-600$ , AR/Ak: 1200-1500$ and for the Marlin which round would you guys recommend, i want 45-70 but it is so extremely expensive in terms of ammo cost , so i was thinking .357 but do you guys think i should just cough up the extra money? Or any suggestions on a different round? All input is appreciated 🙏🏽 Thank you!

Tried to post in the AK reddit but it keeps getting deleted by the mods. I'm dipping my toe in the AK world but don't want to add another caliber. I already bought a Pioneer 5.56 AK but have a surprise bonus coming so I'm looking to get a better quality 5.56 AK.

Holosun ARO-CORE-RD2 2 MOA Red Dot & HM3X Magnifier Combo. Roughly $274 after tax. I picked up the HM3X for $218 after taxes from Amazon last month for context

Planning on moving just wondering what I need to change and what parts you guys recommend
I want to change as little as possible when it comes to
Functionality

Well I guess they were quicker than I thought.

Here is the HDP4 USA 250th engraved edition I guess.
