300 PRC is the new hotness, wheeler.

I’m not a long range target shooter or hunter besides the group I hunt with we all use 300 win mags for moose or elk. Should something happen out in the field we could share a round or 2 to get one by in a pinch. A 308 would be for deer season and if the son or wife started to take an interest in hunting it’s a low recoil caliber

Apparently going to P&D is as expensive as Cabelas.
Apparently I was supposed to ask before making this non returnable purchase.....ooops.

The FX-9 is a non restricted firearm. It does not fall under the Liberal BS laws.
Also the WS-MCR, which I purchased a month ago.

This is true, hence why I picked it up! The receivers are over an inch shorter making it non compatible with the AR platform. I’m glad it misses the Gestapo’s ban list

The FX-9, one of the funnest new plinkers in my safe. I found mine did not like the factor extended mag, got some pmags for and shoots like a dream.

I couldn’t agree more. I’m in the process of building myself a dueling tree and I’m looking forward to getting out again.
As for magazines, I have 4 SGM’s and they’ve been pretty good, but one is a little snug. In 300 rounds, I’ve had two occurrences where the bolt didn’t hold open on the last round.

How do you like the A400? I tried the A300 at the trap range and loved it, 400 is supposed to be that much better.

They are a really good gun with lots of recoil suppression.
Unlike a Benelli cleaning is required I found about every 6-700 rounds.
Bought one for my daughter and she really likes it also.
Put a mid barrel bead for her to help tracking aim point on birds.

I love the Beretta line. I have an A400 unico 12g, which is my go to shot gun. An A400 extreme 12g, and an A400 unico 20g for the wife. I had issues with the 20g at first with cycling lighter loads for clay shooting, but after a little adjustments it's working fine.

Got to see this little guy in action today. It’s an 80 caliber homemade mini cannon that shoots a 186 grain projectile. I’m going to say it’s illegal as hell now with the Libs ban, but he didn’t seem to think so as it was deemed prehistoric, and used a fuse. Either way, it’s very well made and very cool looking.

Interesting article.

#1, he’s a dirtbag. In possession while being prohibited from possessing a firearm.

#2, his lawyer is a douche. Who gives a chit about the circumstances of covid and inmates. Seniors in homes have had it a hundred time worse since this garbage has started.

#3, I feel the article got it wrong in calling a .22 caliber pistol a “prohibited weapon” as oppose to restricted. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think that is the case as of yet...

Maybe don’t flash your stolen handgun around like a circus clown lol.

So another case where the pending changes would have made no difference at all... who knew that bad guys don’t abide by the law.
