Oh really? It said on one FFL finder that they were charging like $45, must have been wrong. Will they do individual to individual transfers?

Thanks guys. How much does he charge?

Nice piece! I put a Wilson Combat lo-pro safety in mine. I like it a lot. It deletes the left hand (right side) safety and makes the right hand safety lever almost flush with the slide.

Hey guys, looking for an FFL to do a private sale in the Buffalo area for a reasonable fee. Seems like some shops won't do person to person transfers, only sales from other FFLs. Anyone have any recommendations or good experiences? Thanks.

Yes, I think everyone here is aware of that. I found what I was looking for check out this guy's title post, especially #2 about the Gold Dots: http://www.defensivecarry.com/forum/defensive-ammunition-ballistics/203320-top-3-carry-loads-9mm-forensic-standpoint-11.html#/topics/203320

Wow, 30" is a lot. Those Critical Duty's look good, I think tnoutdoors9 got 16.5" of pen. out of his G19. I've seen some anecdotal stuff online supposedly from a medical examiner talking about LE 9mm loads and effectiveness. I'll try to find it again, I thought it was helpful.

Geez, that was a crazy video! Thanks for posting!

@Willjr75 , if you're worried about penetration look at Gold Dot 115 grain hp's (standard pressure, not +p). Based on tnoutdoors9's YouTube test, it penetrated ~17.5" in gel. That seems sufficient to me. Muzzle velocity was 1200 fps, with ~369 ft-lbs of energy, coming out of a 4" G19 barrel.

Added a few upgrades to the 92. Lighter hammer spring, ext. mag release, and a Wilson combat lo-pro safety. All great!

To my knowledge, no. The deadline for registration has come and passed. His options are to convert it to comply with existing laws, remove it from the state and keep it elsewhere, or simply not comply with the restrictions (at his own risk).

I actually have an adjustable gas block, but I don't want to rehash the argument here and muck up Fallout's thread. I'm just saying it can be personal preference (as long as it's reliable in your gun obviously).

If you think you'll like a heavier buffer, then don't let these guys talk you out of it :D. They disagree with me, but I like the recoil impulse better with the heavier ones. As long as you test it and make sure it's reliable in your gun, then I think it's fine. But if you're looking to save...

In the next couple of months I'll probably grab something new. I'm trying to decide between an FN FNSc, some kind of revolver, or building an AR pistol in a non-5.56 caliber.

I personally like the heavier buffers. I agree a sling is a good idea.

Nah, those would make the grip even thicker. I'm trying to slim it up a bit with the ones I ordered. Besides I'm not a big fan of lasergrips in general, for me if I'm going to use a laser, I'll put it on the rail, YMMV.

I'll stick something on it in the future. Debating whether to go with a laser/light combo or only a light, I want something compact.

And I already have mods on the way, lol. Grips, a 16# hammer spring, and an extended mag release. I'm also thinking about a skeletonized hammer.

My first one, just got it

Yay! Finally got my Beretta 92A1

Got it!! And I was able to go to the range and test it out after I picked it up. It shot great!

Welcome!

Lol, that's what my first thought was too. I bet the guy raped him with an object instead.

Yeah, I'm going to put it on the license Wednesday when the permit office is in Cheektowaga, less of a drive and I have the day off. It's nice that at least the amendment is pretty instant. I should be able to get the range to mess around with it that afternoon.

Great pics, love the definition!

The "journalists" "resigned", lol.

I think the PMags are good, but I've noticed my aluminum mag seems to feed more smoothly. I wonder if it makes a difference in the long term.

You need a NY pistol permit to rent pistols. They rent some pre-safe act rifles.

Also you may want to think about getting your pistol permit application in soon if you can. Some counties take frikin' forever to process it.

Welcome, you sound a lot like how I was! Lots of great info on here to dig through, enjoy.

When I look for a carry gun in the future, it'll probably be an FNSc or something similar, maybe a Glock 43. But for my uses now, heavy and large aren't downsides. I don't plan on carrying this one.

Ordered the Beretta 92A1 online today!

Definitely going to put a "D" spring in it. I'm actually looking at grips online now. I'm thinking of some that are slightly thinner, but maybe not as thin as the Extra Thin WC ones. Probably one of the subconscious reasons I went with the Beretta is because of all the mods I can do to it, lol!

Interesting, I will probably swap out the grips. I'll keep her in mind, thanks.

Good thing I just bought a Beretta 92 online then, (probably while you were typing lol) ;)

Ok, it's done! The price dropped a bit and I jumped on it. The order going through for a Beretta 92A1! @Darth , @ECU Pirates

Cool, I do still want to try it even though chances are it won't change my mind. I keep forgetting to ask about it, doh. Thanks for the info.

I tried the FNX. It was nice, but I didn't like the safety position so the FNS made the list instead. The Beretta trigger is nicer than the FNX also, IIRC. Thanks for the vote!

The XDs are nice pistols, a little flippy for my taste, but they feel high quality. I'm down to the last 2 to choose between: Beretta 92A1 vs. FN FNS Care to place a vote to help me pick?

Hmm... Beretta 92A1 or FN FNS. Tough decision! I'll own both eventually, but which to buy first?....

I decided to rent the Glock 17 to try it after finding a backstrap that made the grip comfortable. Description added to the "Shot" list in the 1st post. Glock 17: After finding the right backstrap that changed my mind about the grip and made it comfortable, I decided to rent it (mostly to see...

Chuck Schumer lied? This is my shocked face: :D

People were joking in another thread about journalists writing '.9mm' with a period, and how small that would be. And you actually made one!! Super cool. :headbang:

Lol, it's definitely a cool gun. I think I eliminated that one because I couldn't reach the mag and slide release as well as on other pistols.
