You should check out Rare Breed FRT-15 triggers if your into binary triggers. The Rare Breed totally blows the binary trigger our of the water based on it's design.

Is that the radial delayed blowback version..?? I've heard of others having similar issues as well.

'Regular' blowback works just fine w/ other PCCs, but it would certainly be nice to build a soft shooting 9mm via AR platform for sure...RDB seems like the way to go once they get the bugs worked out.

[chowser51]

Yep, it's their RDB. I didn't make it two mags. I had a select-fire lower ready to try but that never happened.

I'm still waiting for the Glock mag lower to hit production. My girlfriend ordered both the upper and lower at the same time.

What holsters you guys rollin with these days? The options are almost endless.

The Urban Carry leather contraption seemed interesting at first, but real reviews show that it's not very effective.

CCW in question is a G43X with AIWB being the goal location.

[chowser51]

I'm using my old Raven Vanguard on my 43X.

It's a minimalist holster. If you draw, you cannot reholster while it's on your belt, you need to remove the holster, clip it to the gun, then holster everything.

let me see if i have a hosted pic somewhere

[Fly320s]

I've gone through a bunch of holsters over the years. My current favorite is the T-Rex Arms Raptor AIWB. It works great for my M&P with a light.

Normally, I don't like a clip-on holster, belt loops are much more secure, but this holster stays put. I have never had it work loose.

There are several companies making similar holsters, so look around and pick one you like.

You'd think a gun range is one of the safest places to be...lady from my hometown was shot and killed at the gun range I train at over the weekend. I just had my baby cousin there with me teaching her how to use my firearms. Ugh... what is wrong with people.. Dont answer that, I already know

I wasn't there when it happened, but it's scary since I was JUST there. Hug your family.

That's terrible, range accidents aren't something you hear about very often.

It wasn’t an accident. It was intentional. 3 people are dead including the suspect, and others hurt

You hear and think that all the time, hell I even feel safer at a range but obviously never let that guard down. Be safe out there.

I'm a big Versacarry fan - I use their ZERO BULK every day with my P365 and have a Comfort Deluxe I use when I don't wear a tucked in undershirt. I like them both.

The clerk who was killed sold me my first Glock . Such a nice guy.

There's a go fund me set up for the family: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-for-...UN31TVJKgXGEow

ON 2/20/21, NOAH FISCHBACH, A LOVING, DEVOTED HUSBAND AND FATHER, WAS GUNNED DOWN IN COLD BLOOD BY A DERANGED SHOOTER THAT ENTERED HIS PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT, JEFFERSON GUN OUTLET, SEEKING HARM TO INNOCENT PEOPLE. NOAH'S HEROIC DEFENSIVE ACTIONS SAVED NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS AND EMPLOYEES FROM THE EVIL ACTIONS OF ONE INDIVIDUAL. NOAH UNFORTUNATELY WAS FATALLY HIT BY A BULLET THAT KILLED HIM INSTANTLY. HE LEAVES BEHIND HIS BEST FRIEND AND WIFE, NANCY, AND HIS 13 YEAR OLD SON ETHAN.

NOAH WAS WELL KNOWN IN THE GUN INDUSTRY AND WAS A TRUE PROFESSIONAL IN HIS 30 YEAR FIREARMS RELATED CAREER. NOAH WAS 47 YEARS OLD AND HAD MANY MORE YEARS OF LIFE TO LIVE. WE ARE SETTING UP THIS FUNDRAISER TO RAISE MONEY FOR NOAH'S FINAL EXPENSES AND TO FUND HIS FAMILY'S EXPENSES FOR YEARS TO COME. NO FAMILY SHOULD BE THROWN INTO FINANCIAL RUIN BY A MASS SHOOTER WITH NO REGARD FOR LIFE. THE SHOOTER WAS KILLED ON SITE AND WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ENDING TWO INNOCENT LIVES ON THIS TERRIBLE DAY.

IF YOU WANT TO HELP THE FAMILY OF A HERO, PLEASE DONATE WHAT YOU CAN SO WE CAN PROVIDE FUNDS TO KEEP HIS CHILD IN SCHOOL, FOOD ON THE TABLE, AND MONTHLY BILLS PAID. A DEATH IN THE FAMILY IS HARD ENOUGH, FILLING THE SHOES OF THE PRIMARY FINANCIAL PROVIDER OF THIS PRECIOUS FAMILY IS EVEN HARDER.

It's unfortunate... reminds me of the Chris Kyle incident. Taken too soon - with family left behind to grieve....

Bipod recommendations please?
Specifically, MLOK (don't have Picatinny) - need a bipod mount for a 308 (tired of using sandbags)

Well I would recommend get an MLOK adapter to picatinny rail.. Then you open up your world for rails. How much do you want to spend?
Atlas are great rails but expensive. Bobro if they still make them. GG&G makes a okay one.
Rainier sells a new manufacturer one that looked interesting but I can't remember the name. Magpul makes a really low cost ones that works okay.

Magpul bipod

[Fly320s]

I have a Magpul bipod and I would not recommend it for a precision rifle. The bipod is too flimsy and wobbly even when fully tightened.

The Atlas is a great bipod, but like Rhidium said, they are expensive and a bit heavy. I have one on my precision rifle and it is awesome, but might be overkill for a light-weight hunting rifle or AR15.

I still think the best all-around bipods are the Harris models. They may have an MLOK mount by now, I'm not sure.

Good to know, I was lookin at the Magpul bipod for my RPR. I'll check out the Atlas

Total noob here...just got my HQL...looking to start with a Glock 19 gen 5. Going rate for new seems to be around $1k...if you can find one. Does that seem right?

No. Don’t pay more than $600 (plus tax). Wait until more become available. It’s sold out at the store near me but they’re online selling price is $599.99

Thank you! My local shops have 'slightly' used going for $649, but I want a new one. Crazy times for sure. Thanks again.

Unless your personal safety is at risk and you have no other firearms, just wait until it's back in stock. I only buy new. To me, every used gun is a previous murder weapon

Don't waste your money just to get it now. You should be able to order it online off Glock's website and when it's available, it'll ship to your local gun store.
