What distance are you shooting?

Let your friend shoot your gun and see if he shoots as well with it...

It's a varying distance qualification between 10-33 ft. It's two rounds every time "Shooter Joe" faces you with the gun. The other side of the paper is "Unarmed Joe". The paper travels a distance, rotates to show you one or the other. If you shoot "Unarmed Joe", it's an automatic fail.

The partner I'm referencing is definitely a better shot than I am. You have to shoot the expert qualification (…with our standard full-size Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0, which is the gun I shot my qual with) and pass to be able to carry a 1911/2011 on-duty. I haven't ever run the expert qualification because I have no interest in carrying something like a Staccato on-duty. I have another partner at the station who is dead center with his Glock. His groupings are amazing!

And on second thought, 308 isn't THAT great. Maybe I'd pop Garand out of the safe. 30:06 is sending a message that robo dog wouldn't misinterpret.

Haha! I sold my Garand a couple years ago. I should've kept it. I still have a bunch of ammo links I need to get rid of too.

I went back to the gun shop today for some accessories.

I swapped out the EOTECH on my Q Sugar Weasel SD from the EOTech XPS2-0Tan to the EXPS3-0Tan, & added a MagPul AFG Angled Foregrip as well. The EXPS3 has side controls where the XPS2 had rear controls and the magnifier would restrict easy access to the controls.
I also added a light to the new P320 RXP XCompact. I don’t like the light to protrude much past the barrel so I was limited smaller pool of options and went with the TLR-7A. Also ordered a custom QVO kydex IWB holster for the new addition.

Love it, the large sight picture makes for quick target acquisition. It’s one of the best optics I’ve used.
“Overview
The HWS EXPS3™ is an excellent choice for professionals. The EXPS3 offers true two eyes open shooting for fast target acquisition, night vision compatible settings, and a 7mm raised quick detach base for lower 1/3 iron sight co-witness.”

I’m selling the XPS2-0Tan that I replaced today. I believe it’s already sold but if that falls through for some reason I’ll post it up on here.

Since we're posting muzzle flashes, here's my 500SW. Side note, anyone in the market for a muzzle brake, check out the precision armament hypertap. Feels like a cheat code for ARs.

Do you have any ejection issues with that thing? My desert eagle fails to eject like every 3 when I run .50 ae and that's factory ammo. I've tried all kinds of holds.

Its my friends but I have shot it in .44 and .50, it did fail to go fully into battery twice (think it was the .50), but ejection did not seem to be an issue.

Not so quick. I think one of these is going to eventually be taken up by SCOTUS. And the resulting ruling might strike down a lot of current federal and state laws. This might be the straw that broke the camels back. It is CLEARLY unconstitutional. In fact it might blow the lid off of NFA and bans on fully automatic weapons. Which would cost me as I own an M16 and MP5 but I'll take that hit to be able to buy a new SAW.

Betting the protestors outside the justices houses would be working overtime if that happened.

That's a valid, working possibility that proponents of this bill probably haven't considered, but we know Biden's new Justice will be completely on board with the agenda. They'll just pack the court and try a workaround, but that sets a dangerous precedent (…just like Biden rendering everything an "emergency" and overusing E.O.'s to push the agenda).
