CM or CW series are alot less expensive! CM is virtually the same weapon other than stmping instead of engraving and doesn't have the match barrel, which on this gun I don't think makes a difference. Its not like your going to be taking 20 yard shots with it

Way to validate my purchase!

Here are all the differences.

1) Conventional rifling in the barrel instead of match grade polygon rifling
2) Stamped logo instead of engraved
3) Pinned-in plastic front sight
4) One magazine instead of two
5) Injection molded slide stop lever (instead of machined)
6) Less machining on the slide assembly

I knew the CM was an option...sometimes I think I just have champagne taste (on a beer budget).

How do you manage 30 rnds and 22 rnds. Do you mags fit in the "box" at major matches. 170mm for big sticks and 140mm for all the others

I run Grams engineering and Dawson basepads and can only get 29 in my bigsticks 9mm major, and 20 in my 140mm 40 cal Brazos custom and still meet max mag length rules. My mags are SVI

[Run and Gun]

I have a weld up 170mm mag from a gunsmith that has grams guts and a DP snl basepad that barely fits the gauge. As for the 140mm para mags,I use ISMI springs,factory followers and a DP basepad. All mags fit the gauge. I rarely fully load them to full capacity because it really hurts the springs and normally if the stage is that big there is always somewhere to reload.

Are you shooting the DoubleTap Championship this year, usually the 2nd largest pistol match in the country each year. The Doubletap Ranch is my home range and is 8 miles down the road. Only 6 members locally. Its nice to go practice and have 14 bays with all the equipment and no one else there. I am RO'ing stage 2 this year i believe. We have over 300 signed up so far for this years match.

I wish I could. I'm working 6-7days a week right now. I'll make it there one day.

Love this lil thing, took it to the range today, shoots great! My easier to conceal carry this than my full size 1911

I really like the look of the LC9. I'm kinda thinking of getting one...

Selling my LCP if you want something a little smaller.

[2010SS2SS]

"I" just ordered two LC9's, Two CM9 Kahrs, and a couple more odds and ends.

And just to clear things up I do think the money is well spent on the difference as far as resale RUSS!

Should have read "I just have champagne taste (on a champagne budget)." I've seen your car and your weapons!

Picked up a Sig P290 at the gun show over the weekend. I like it

Nice...Sig makes a great weapon.

Here's my newest weapon - FN FNP-45 Tactical.

Picked it up last week, but just put the Trijicon on today.

Let me know how it ejects brass, I have heard it can throw casings right into the RMR

It is gorgeous though!

[SamHouseIII]

Huglu Super Poze or Ruger Red Label. Have a chance to purchase either one, The Huglu (which I actually think is a Dehaan) is so nice and smooth, brand new, but all I can find for a model number is Huglu Super Pozed TS87O (eight seven O not Zero). I really want this gun, but if not a Dehaan, I don't think 1300 is a good price. I might offer 1200. Again nothing turns up for the Huglu on the net other than current models?? 103, 103D, 104, 104D......Not much out there on them. Any thoughts?

My understanding was that Trijicon actually worked with FN on designing the weapon for the RMR, so they obviously tested the two together.

I heard the same thing you did, but researched some more and found out the RMR wasn't the issue at all. Apparently they had reloads that were short cycling the slide. Here's a great video on it.

[2010SS2SS]

Never had a problem with mine! Russ you know your gonna make me pay another one.
Black is just alot sexier...

[blake-b]

If there are any .308 reloaders in here, I can get you a pretty decent deal on Sierra 175gr matchking seconds...

I put this here because I didn't think too many reloaders would be in the non-automotive section looking for firearm related things.

PM me for details.

[BullF-16]

name the caliber and i reload it. big into the 300 blk now and still have a few K of the 150 gr 7.62 laying around. what cost

[AzItaliaSS]

FYI, considering moving my Mauser 2000 30-06 Krupp barrell,Werke A.G. Oberndorf ,redfield scope. Good condition, stock in great shape (looks gloss still.)
PM if anyone might be interested, i just never use it, comes with black padded case. have had a few offers, just not sure if they are avg or low so still thinking of moving it.

[Dangeruss]

Maybe this should be my next handgun.

I've got a Ruger P89, the wife's looking for a nice "lady" weapon. Any suggestions for a small, petite type?
