Nice rifles and pistols Brenden, I'm jealous :)
Thanks for sharing them with us.
Awesome stuff.
The oracle, top rifle now has a magpul moe stock, daniel defense quad rail, anf the front site officially has a use, and a full auto bolt.
They both also have Battery assist devices on them, which are fricken increidble for a quick fix of a jam or just to charge the rifle back, along with the BMC mod3 charging handles. They also both have the magpul XTM enhanced rail panels covering the 1913 parts of the rails that are now in use.
bottom one also now has a magpul moe grip, black.
Updated pics please ^^
Fucking hell I am raging with jealousy right now, why the fuck do I live in a country that doesn't see the beauty in things that can shoot and kill?
Oh wait I life in Ireland thats right ;)
Great for you to share this!!!
In fact may I be so bold and change this thread title for other members to show their "babies"
Here are the updated pics for you Benda. Also two of my other purchases, a walther P22 and a .45 Colt 1991A1 Compact which is my carry gun. And here's for KGCNC for some mags ;) .
Is anybody going to get the magpul SGA™ STOCK and MOE Forend for the 870?
I am going to merge this thread with the existing popular thread.... AC Gun show....
;)

the bipod is a cheap $20 bipod made for airsoft guns, but it works good enough to use sighting in ;)

My new toy...
H&R 1871 buffalo classic, 45-70 govt.,single shot, 32" barrel
As bad as being on the firing end hurt, i sure as hell wouldn't like the recieving end. yeah, 310gr bullet deer rounds (how the fuck big can deer get for christ sake).
5 shots and i was done. let billy bad ass on the next bench shoot it (done in 2...lol), then another guy wanted to try a shot. all 3 of us were rubbing our shoulders. (the one guys gf said not no but hell no to shooting it). probably didn't help I was already sore before hand.
45-70 next to 5.56
yeah... its big...
Eris, wanna come try?
H AND R. Says it all. I had a 12 gauge once from them. Straight stock like yours and all. Not much fun to shoot none the less. Lol.

I went to gander mtn today and looked at 3 one was a berreta compact did not like it my hand was to big and my pinky did not fit the grip so i looked at the 96 in which this is the one I am going to get I also looked at a ruger 40 did not like it becase of the decocking mechinizim and when the slide comes back the barrel point'shttp://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...avarone001.jpg upward way to much the 96 is bigger but it feels right and fits my hand perfect have never felt a pistol that felt so comfortable since I had my 1911 in the Army
http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h8...DOG/Web004.jpg
This was the ruger did not like it because of the safety features and it was hammerless Also I wanted a calaiber between the 45 and 380 needed distance and stopping power and price the Guy who helped me out was very helpful He asked me what I did not like about the compact I told him to light and did not feel comfortable with it Seems like if I shot it it would be alll over the place he asked why I had said that I told him my hand He handed it to me and said act like you are going to shoot it I took a firing postion and he told me its your pinky right I laughed I told him how did you know he told me that is what most people say about this pistol He said very relible pistol but People end up returning it before they get a handle on it and its always the same reason My pinky lol
I really like the looks of that rifle loco, plus the length of the barrel and the single shot makes it a great piece for some very accurate distance shooting, along with the H&R logo. I also like the choice of the handgun serpa I fired one last summer and loved it and the feel of it. As you said if a handgun fits in your hand and it feels right, odds are that one is for you. I get a lot of shit for not liking glocks because I haven't shot one I liked with the way it sat in my hand.
Well Brenden, dont know where your at in minn, but your welcome to come on over to aberdeen and do some shooting sometime...
I have the 96A1 which incorporates a picatinnay rail along the bottom. Keep in mind if you go that route (with the A1 mod) that you will have a VERY difficult time finding holsters for it.
Other than my custom made Serpa holster (Dremmel and heat gun) I have to use universal holsters for it which are big, ugly and bulky.
I get out that way occasionally loco. Plan on me getting a hold of ya in the future if I know I'll be in the area though, you provide the area I'll provide the ammo. Always enjoy shooting with another vet, and apache.
Anytime ya want. range is open sundays, but have my own land which is open anytime and have my own range. well, actually a strip mowed through the pasture...lol
Always a good time to be had shooting with someone new. traded in my ar, but am ordering a new upper friday for a build which the lower is done on so should be back in 5.56 business end of next week.
traded it on my new toy :)
And introducing my other new toy...
been looking a long time and a buddy at the gun shop called today. they got 3 in, one for him, me, and the other sold shortly after i left. weren't even off the truck 2 hours...lol
and no drooling dammit... well, Eris can drool :P
I haven't fired anything close to that loco, looks sweet as hell. What is it exaclty, I lack virtually any kind of information on more compact models such as this.
What kind of an upper are you going to get, I have been looking into POF more so than others over the past 6 months but the price kind of drives me off? Post pics when you get it put together bro.
ahh, sorry... its a 9mm uzi smg (sub machine gun, modified to semi) with 32 round mags and 16" barrel (shorter barrels are considered sbr's).
Haven't really decided on an upper yet. thinking one of these tho... http://www.ar15depot.com/uppers.htm kinda like the gpr05
and trust me, after you shoot the 45-70... everything else feels like a bb gun
Well, that uzi isn't worth crap. Hates pd hollow points, hates cci blazer, umc does better. Light strikes, failure to eject while feeding, triple feeds causing a huge jam up( fired, chambered, round being fed into the back of chambered round), every casing has an off center strike ( firing pin catches side of primer and side of pocket) which results in bulged primers and trashed cases, shears edge of case base while ejecting.
Nothing i would trust at all if ever needed.
Its going back tomorrow.... Along with a handful of trashed cases.
I'll stick with ar's which i know i can trust
Always wanted and thought uzi's were top notch, never again. I spent more time clearing than i did shooting.
Gun store is shipping all 3 back and cancelling the 3 they have coming.
could be a bad extractor/ head space timing
That's what I was thinking nasty. My AR last week would double feed after each shot, the extractor spring was shot ( even though I had only fired roughly 800 rds through the weapon). It would hook the round and not let go, causing the double feed and me having to pry the round out. I would think this could be similar on an UZI, although I am not familiar will the platform, they are all pretty much the same.
To answer... all three are doing pretty much the same. I shoot and reload 9mm. This thing makes the brass totally unusable. For what I paid I expected more out of it. Repair is out of the question, I'm not putting more money into fixing something I shouldn't have too. Çai can fix their own crap at their cost.
I never had ANY luck with closed bolt UZI's. My opinion is that they suck bad.... I am assuming by the pic, that's what it is.
I've bought closed bolt UZI's and MAC's in the past because of the cool factor. They were all garbage.... all double feed really bad no matter what ammo you use and chew the brass up, pretty much everything you mentioned above. They are simply garbage as closed bolt semi-autos.
I did have fun with the 9mm MAC though.....after putting like 900 rounds through it started to function a whole lot better and the double feeds/jams started to lessen. However the sear and trigger got worn so much from bump firing that it would fire a 5 round burst on one trigger pull. I got scared that I would get locked up, so I got rid of it.
Your uzi might need some more rounds put through it or it could very well be another issue due to a flawed part.
Just my opinion though, I am no expert.
Have you checked out any UZI forums for info?
I also had the same problem with my Desert Eagle, right out of the box it would double feed. I had the .50 AE with the .44 conversion kit. Both set-ups gave me the same problem...
I had to put around 500-600 rounds through it before it started functioning flawlessly.
Took it in today, they are sending all three in for repair, all three with some of the brass that was shot through them. he's calling cai tomorrow to let them know they are on the way and what the problem is and is going to call me with their answers, including how long repairs are going to be. we did discover today that the bolt rocks side to side in them, which is eliminated if the top cover is pressed down. may also be the reason for the off center firing pin hits. i ran 75 rnds through it last night.
we'll see i guess...
That sucks. I like uzi's.
May have discovered the problem. Seems there is too large a tolerance between top plate and bolt.may not a need yo send back. Or it may be the wrong extractor was installed.
know more in a bit
well, it seems they installed auto extractors in a semi bolt which would explain alot of the problems. mine also has a bad cover. Cai said 2-4 weeks for repairs and didnt seem at all surprised about the problems. cai makes keltec and hipoint look top notch....
on a side note... a recoil pad on the 45-70 majorly helped. now if i could find cheap ammo, 35 a box for cheap stuff around here...
well, friday I should have the uzi back. the gunsmiths at cai were working on all 3 last friday and were supposed to have them done today. so now all thats left is to wait a little bit :)
well, the pos cai uzi is history. altho it did get fixed it still had a problem... puncturing primers which isnt a good deal.
traded it on a new dpms oracle.
also bought a new pistol thats a bit easier to conceal under light cloths. picked up a s&w bodyguard 380
That's too bad about the Uzi, but congrats on the other guns :D
Have you had an Oracle before?
Nope, haven't ever owned dpms products. figured it was fairly cheap and allowed for configuring the way i wanted.
Taking it to the range in a bit here to see how it shoots.
well, i must say its pretty damn good. not thinking about it being new my dumb ass kept chasing scope adjustments and couldnt get a decent group... until it dawned on me.
pumped 40 rounds through it to heat cycle and let it cool and my groups improved dramatically. after 100 or so rounds it was keeping them in about 3" at 100. not bad for turkish fmj 5.56...lol
have to pick up a box of match rounds and see how it does then.
I did oops at the range tho. they aren't fond of tracers which i forgot i had in one mag http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-sex023.gif
And the little s&w 380 bodyguard is a pretty good grouping pistol. I thought being such a short barrel and grip area, along with a double action, that it would throw lead all over. was a bit low and right at about 30', but they would have all still been body shots. the laser is way off tho...
I had looked at a beretta simalar to this in a 40 cal though that was the one Loco I said my hand did not fit the grip But also i remember that people bought the extended mag for it and they did ok with it stood nice and firm and on target
On another note I just found out my family is putting togather the money for this My wife has a big mouth It's a late fathers day gift
http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...avarone001.jpg
Very nice :)
idiot at the range today told me I couldnt group worth shit... hmm, a 6" circle at 100yds, strong winds, and using a friggin m&p15-22... dumbass thought I was using 5.56, lol
Then he really freaked when I was shooting the 17hmr. telling me I still wouldnt group for shit. 5 shots, all within a nickle... numbnuts shut the hell up after that.
Its amazing what happens at the range sometimes. Had a guy and his son from bavaria there today. they shot a few diffferent weapons, then a friend of mine showed him his uzi and asked if he'd like to try. he accepted, then proceeded to show my friend how to really shoot one... i have never seen anyone keep that tight of a group with an uzi. then we found out he was a retired police officer from there and he carried one daily...lol
That's why I love going to the range. Two weekends ago I got to fire 240 rounds through a full auto MP5, it was a blast. So tiny, low recoil, easy to handle. Like nothing I've ever fired full auto before, to used to the 249, 240 and M2 and they are all clumbsy compared to that thing.
