Hi All, I currently carry and S&W 2.0 M&P 2.0, and was thinking of upgrading to either a Walther PDP Pro E or F for the 3.5 barrel for EDC but I was also thinking of just getting a M&P 2.0 performance center for the upgrades but can’t decide on which is better to get and wanted to see if anyone can help me decide. Thanks

Hi, so my boyfriend's birthday is coming up and he recently bought his first gun (Glock 48... I think?). If it's not obvious I know next to nothing about guns but they are something he's really into, he's going to school for forensics and criminal justice so guns are just part of his day to day. I'm not comfortable buying ammo or new modifications for the gun bc I don't know much but I want to get him something he can use. Any ideas are helpful, I've been looking at a range bags and ammo boxes but I'm not sure how helpful those are, please give any feedback! Thank you

Was offered it in a trade

Do I need to adjust this H3 buffer with an Allen key before installing? If so, what’s best practice?

I’m going to get into long guns soon or just guns with 3 points of contact in general.

Whenever it comes to the conversation of barrel length, the main points/arguments I always see being made are about effectiveness at range. Shorts barrels suck blah blah.

My question is, what barrel lengths are peoples default, and how far of a defensive shot do you think you’ll actually HAVE to take as a civilian? How far do you NEED a rifle caliber to be useful out to?

I hear people say a gun is useless/bad because of its ballistics at an absurd range like 400-800 yards. Could this be LARP? Or just personal preference?

Seems like a lot of FFLs are running deals for them for under $2k, especially in 5.56. Were they just not selling, having issues or is a Gen 2 maybe about to drop?

Building my own ought six, interested in what you guys are running. Primarily hunting black bear in the pnw, but I’ll have a spike elk tag in my pocket as well. Curious to see what you all think/run.

Mossberg Mavericks are going for $250+ these days. Would y’all recommend any particular brand sub $250 or should I just go used?

Thanks!

Does it hold up compared to the 2 most reliable pistols on the market?

I just got my new Ruger 10/22 and took it to the range today to try it out. I'm loving it, but I noticed it shoots a bit high and to the right, using CCI standar velocity 40gr and also RWS club 40gr. I'm shooting at a target 50m away (almost 55 yards for my American brothers, I'm from Spain) with iron sights and just putting the gun over a table, no bipod or anything.

My question is how do I zero my iron sights (I heard that 20 yards is the best), since I'm somewhat new to this kind of rifles. Thank you in advance and any suggestions are welcomed.

By the way, I also bought a 25 magazine, the BX-25. I heard mixed opinions about it's reliability, but I will see when they arrive.

Just curious—which of these two reticles do you guys prefer: the clean circle-dot or the one with cross marks? I’m leaning toward the cross-marked one because my eyes seem to pick it up more easily, but that may just be personal preference. Is there any practical difference between them?

Just inherited this. Did some research and……with these markings, very very interesting

so as title states, i bought a mini 14 awhile ago and took it to the range and i HATED the peep sights. i took a look at the tec sights you can buy but still dont like those.

so, ive just decided screw it, lets get a low magnification scope/sight. only problem is, i know next to nothing about scopes/sights. ive always been a iron sight person.

i dont want something that allows me to see into the next county, i just want something around maybe max 4x zoom that can be used on my mini 14 AND have it not be so god damn expensive lol

any suggestions?

Since the AK reddit won't let me post this question.

i’m trying to find my girlfriend a every day carry, the only thing is she wants it pink, what brands or ways should i go about it, i currently carry a p365xl and she likes the size of it, i would prefer if it had safely switch on it aswell

I’m looking to get rid of this old Mossberg but I don’t know what it’s worth. I haven’t seen many exactly like this one and I’m not completely sure what is at the end of the barrel. Please help!

Foxtrot mike products, Mike-102 16f, side fold rifle. Picked this up on Friday, attached the afg from Magpull, random vertical grip, budget red dot. Went to the range Sunday, had a blast. Love the side fold, barrel quality, overall compactness, full top rail, index tab handguard, 7 sided M-lok, forward charging handle, and ejection port cover. The safety is left and right handed, polymer lever. Magazine well accepts ak556 magazines, they recommend AC unity, and circle 10 (some others may fit). Really want the slap mod handgaurd, makes the forward charging handle into something like the MP5 or G3 bolt lock back.

Friend brought a Sub2000, he said the Mike-102 recoil may be less than his Keltec. Went through about 150 rounds. This rifle is rad, love the controls, the feel, the low recoil, the adjustable side folding stock, love it. 10 out of ten would buy another.

It's a pistol. That also holds 50 rounds...
