Nice. I have one of those waiting for the FATF to approve the tax stamp.

136 days and counting.

 

[JGSFAB]

I was able to sign up and print at SHOT 1/25? and received approval 5/31.
Just put in for a YHM M2 45acp can and we will see.

Wow. Great grip.

When there's a 20oz can hanging off the front it's a little tense... my fingers are a bit fat and stupid when it comes to shooting grips.

The new one shouldn't be more than 4 days if you are doing individual. My recent purchases were all 4 days for atf approval.

Please please please. For the Love of God and all that is holy, go take a basic pistol course.

You have tons of guns but I can tell you've NEVER taken a course on how to actually use them. What's the point of having tools and not knowing how to build a house with them.

This is meant as an encouragement. Please brother, go learn how to be proficient. It will be fun to learn how to hit targets accurately and consistently. You'll be a better man for it.

It's a hit or miss. My buddy is at 60days non trust. I am at 3 weeks on one and 1 week on another non trust. I did one as a single shot trust and I am at 3 months on that one. I did have 5 cleared in one day back in May.

Time is the problem... running a business, family activities, etc. doesn't allow much real range time. I didn't spend any time shooting pistol growing up, more rifles and shot guns.
I'm currently watching all I can about fixing my grip issues, building a back yard range seemed to help getting more trigger time. Some range expansion is planned as well. My scores and hit ratios are pretty decent for a cross-eye dominant lefty :lol:
I'd say I was struggling with the weight as well.

If I'm defending my home and property it isn't going to be with a pistol and my carbine rounds are almost boring at self defense ranges.
Building things without a lick of training my life story, our way was to get tools and figure it out.

Check out a thumbs forward grip on the tube.

I shoot alot of 44mag from the 12in 629 , 50AE deagle , Babyeagle was my first semi.

I'm trying to get more proficient with my glock. I find my self torquing to the left with the trigger pull to be my worst habit.
The 629 has the sweetest trigger and it shows on target.

My apologies. That was unnecessarily harsh. That said, there's lots of great videos available online to help. One thing you DO NOT want to be doing is wrapping your support hand thumb behind the pistol. I've seen some very ugly injuries from folks doing that.

ATF must have read my earlier post...

Submitted 3/3/24

136 days.

I just picked up my first suppressor!!!

 

[JGSFAB]

Ya, I've been bit before. It's a habit from big bore revolvers. Down at the wrist joint it usually doesn't catch it. Bad habits I agree.

Trust or normal?

I'll second that. Saw it happen to a guy with a .50 Desert Eagle. The injury didn't look fun, but it wasn't nearly as bad as the guy made it out to be. You'd have thought he was giving birth to a Langolier the way he was carrying on. It was very embarrassing. Don't do that.

I hear you dude. I've got 2 kids under 2, I run a business as well, along with up keep of 5 acres up in the hills. I get MAYBE one day a month to dedicate to shooting/improvement, and not a full day at that. Take a course someplace local, should have a 4hr-ish class on how to hold, grip, operate and make solid hits with a pistol. Then get a "Dryfiremag" for your Glock and spend 10-15 mins a day dryfiring.

I get the rifle vs. pistol thing, I'm better with a rifle also. But that doesn't mean we should settle for bad proficiency and just say "I should've had my rifle". Statistically when are you most likely to use a firearm to defend yourself?….. while you're out and about. Are you going to carry a rifle or a pistol with you when you're out and about?? What about when things heat up socially you're not gonna carry around a rifle like Kyle Rittenhouse, it's gonna be a pistol.

I'm left handed, and over weight too, but I still go to the gym 5 days a week, work on my diet and do my dry fire training daily. I'm getting better. You should too. You owe it to your wife and kids.
