Does that include the p320 that's firing when dropped?

I don't have much of an opinion on who makes the best handguns or not, but couldn't pass on the timing with recent failed drop tests put on YouTube. I'm on my phone or I'd post some videos.

I'm a big fan of Sig. I own, and have owned, many of their guns. I'll be the first to admit that a lot of their budget polymer frame pistols are hit-or-miss in terms of quality. Only one I ever kept was the 2022. That is a nice shooter.

Their P-series pistols are expensive but have always been worth it in my experience.

Free fix available for the trigger.

Just can't imagine trusting my life to a gun with a defective trigger though... I'll keep my Glocks.

Finally got all my parts in for my build except for the back up iron sights and scope. Just finished building her. I had previously finished the lower and already installed the trigger.





Went with:

-Battle Arms Development Billet Receiver Set

-Proof Research Stainless/Carbon Fiber .223/.556 Wylde Match Barrel. 1:7 Twist

-Rubber City Armory lighweight BCG

- Raptor charging handle

- JP Enterprises tuned buffer spring

-Spikes Tactical Buffer Tube

-2 Stage Geisele Trigger (SOCOM)

-Seekins Precision adjustable gas
block(so I can tune the gas down for lightweight BCG and Suppressor)

- BCM Compensator/Flash Hider

-BCM keymod rail

-Sabre Tube butt stock

-BCM Gunfighter hand grip

- HK flip up iron sights( Have not received yet)

* Have to wait on the scope but I am putting a Leupold Mark 8 CQBSS with Horris reticle for distance and illuminated red dot for close range.



Torquing down the barell


Installing gas block

Timing the compensator




I used all titanim take down pins, selector lever and magazine release.
Right at 5 lbs now.

Here's mine:

Working on a few ar's. The one with the black barrel is .308 and the chrome is 6.5 creedmoor. Just waiting on the triggers (geissle ssa-e triggers). Also need a stock for the .308 as well. The .308 will be camo'd. Same optics for both. Vortex viper 6x24x50.

This is my 308. Mega Arms build with Matched billet upper and lower, mega 20 inch barrel, WND NB carrier, 3 pound CMC trigger, topped off with a sig Tango 4 FFP mil/mil.

The gun so far, is much more capable than I am.

Your 308 is awesome!

We only have one Sig so far, my wife fell in love with the Sig P-238 HD with the rosewood handle. One of the most solid little pistols made.

Very nice. I have the .308 and 6.5cm I'm building then i still have another .308 lower reciever and 3 .223 lowers to build. Gonna have to get my guns thier own closet, lol.

 

[OldmanRob]

I got them a home, it weighs 450 lbs and sits in my garage. I have an unfinished 223 lower and a couple ARs in 5.56 living with the 308

I would love to build a 6.5, crazy range for an AR platform.

I will look forward to seeing your builds.

My wife's EDC is a 938 SAS. It matches her in every way; beautiful, tiny, and packs a deadly punch of you push the wrong button! Over 1000 rounds through it now and not one jam.

 

[OldmanRob]

The SAS is a beautiful gun, truth be told I wanted my wife to get a 9mm but she felt better with the P-238.

It's all a matter of comfort. The 938 are a little snappy, especially after a long day at the range. The 238's are great little pistols, too, and you can find defense ammo for them that rival 9mm. Can't really go wrong with either.

That is how I looked at it, she is comfortable with the 380 and that is the most important thing about a self defense weapon. If she is afraid of it she would be less likely to practice with it. I have a couple of 9mm if she decided to step up so its a win win as far as I am concerned.

If she wants to step up we get a new gun, if not we have a bad ass little 380.

My next build will be almost identical to this AR pistol.

This is not a pistol, this is an SBR with that stock on it, be careful...

The ATF ruled the Shockwave Blade as a pistol brace, so technically that picture is legally classified as a pistol, not a SBR, as long as you use the brace as intentionally designed. Shoulder it and it becomes a SBR according to the ATF's ridiculous logic.

They changed the "shoulder it, it's an SBR" recently... I've never seen that brace, so, that's news to me... I only am familiar with the SB stuff (I have a few).

Anyway, good to know, this looks like a better option than the other braces I've seen in the past. I just put one on my MPX and LOVE it.

The MPX is on my short-list. I was hoping the Hearing Protection Act was going to happen and I'd planned to go ahead and get a SBR stamp for one of those and a short barreled 300blk. The braces are a fun little loophole, but I'm not fond of the stipulations. I'm also not fond of needing to pay for permission to own a SBR. Damn catch-22.

Here's my little girl, brought her to Vegas after the shooting, never know...

Very nice! Don't blame you for scooping one up.

Bump stocks will be on the chopping block soon. Who knows what liberties they'll go after next...

You know, I've shot a lot of bump stocks over the years, never been too impressed. I applied to a class 3 stamp for an M16, then shot one... Realized it's not THAT great, too. Fun? Sure... But, not worth the $$$ IMO.

Glock 18 though... That mother fucker is FUN as shit. A good pal of mine has his dealers' license, so he has all the good toys....
