    The things I appreciate the most about Glock is simplicity and safety.

    Several common designs have a striker block that is located at the tail. If striker were to break, its spring will easily slam the remaining section in the primer. But on Glock, the safety is out in front, ahead of the place where the spring applies force on the striker.

    @shibao Ironically enough all I have is RMR and Acro. I know RMR is too large for modern micro-compacts, which is why every one of them does RMSc. Fortunately, RMR is an okay-ish footprint with a number of compatible options.

    @sun @kaia @4censord She's been shooting since she was 5. I forgot her name, but she was a Youtube channel. Her most famous video thus far was the one where she throws a G44.

    It was not obvious to most of the audience, but she started out dual-wielding Glock and Taurus TX. It was back when she hasn't graduated to the centerfire yet. So, naturally G44 runs out first. The then looks at it, throws it away, and continues with the TX. The magazine capacity for G44 is 10, for TX is 16. That was the whole point of the video initially. But everyone latched at how she threw that Glock.

    This passed by me, but Glock added a rail to G43X.

    @sun Wow, isn't it HK P2000? Do you have any idea how expensive that thing is? Unless it's stolen, of course.

    Purely out of curiosity, what is the source of these kits? Someone takes a gun and cuts it up. This makes a lot of sense for guns that cannot be imported as guns. The ugly side of living under the oppressive regime, I get that. But where do these come from? Are they all stolen and/or hot guns, which are cut up in order to dump the S/N?

    A Ruger 1911 goes for $700+ at GB and $449.97 at EGP. There's no way someone buys guns up at market prices and cuts them up for resale to 3D printers.

    I wonder why there's no such thing as a hesitation locked rifle. Seems like its characteristics would be similar to any proper delayed blowback system, but the energy input into the action would be better measured. The amount is not governed by a tricky balance of the mass of the carrier and locking wedge angle like in HK, but just the distance that the bolt travels before landing on the hard lock. This should allow shooting ammunition of varying power. Same principle as when an inertia shotgun collects a measured amount of energy in the central spring. But nobody did that, not even John Pedersen. Am I missing something, or it's just happened that way?

    @shibao Sadly it's not threaded. But on the gripping hand, it has no serial number. The horror, the horror! Think of all the children ... that had shoot it over the last 50 years!

    @shibao Privately I'm quite convinced that shooting a long barrel .22 rifle outdoors is hearing safe. Don't tell anyone though. This is something that tacticool crowd cannot comprehend.

    @shibao They were new in box, if that's what you're asking.

    If you mean the reliability, it was perfect for me, but keep in mind that I never shot it with the factory magwell module. To be honest, I'm quite impressed at how much damage H.O.'s review has done to the model. But then Henry dug their own grave there, so lulz.

    I realize now that I should've recorded the serial numbers of the guns for sale at the show. Then we'd know how much were getting produced, at least to the order of magnitude. My Homesteader was early, under 2000.

    BTW, I bought a Winchester 69 at the show for $350. The gun has no serial number, it's only a .22. Can use 22 Shorts. Seems like in a great condition. My Fudd collection is expanding!

    https://www.jewishpress.com/news/israel/idf/thanks-but-no-thanks-israel-replacing-us-assault-rifles-with-locally-made-arms/2024/03/06/

    Journalists generally explain it poorly, but basically IDF decided to replace Tavor with M4. The only twist this time is, they don't want to rely on American supply in the face of the demands in Ukraine and other theaters, so they are going to make those ARs themselves.

    I remember that a ton of articles were posted in 2021 about Tavor not going away. However, the 2022 SVO in Ukraine changed the calculus very much: a cheaper, easier to manufacture, effective rifle is called for.

    There's no much wrong with Tavor except the cost, and let's face it: not being an AR is its greatest demerit.

    Sorry, I forgot that I'm on Fedi. I should've added "Tavor bros on suicide watch trololololol" or something.

    Interestingly enough, IDF rejected AR-likes too (so, no Carmel). It has to be an M4. I was hoping for the death of the Government profile barrel, but apparently no such luck.

    It happened again. A customer complains that he inserts a magazine in the gun and the bolt does not go forward. Sends a photo ... the magazine is empty. This is the 2nd such case among my clientele in 2 years. Not very common, but it happens.

    TIL that M4 feed ramps on modern ARs extend into the upper. I was curious why reputable retailers advertise uppers with ramps. Previously the ramps were a hack added to the barrel extension, no the upper. But evidently times change!

    Naturally, extending the ramps into the upper opens a door for a funny mis-time, as pictured (lol).
