HK Mk23 Mod.O LAM - .45 ACP


CZ75 - 9x19mm


CZ P10C - 9x19mm

Second one is a CZ P-01. The P-01 is decocker only and has an NSN on the side. I love that gun. It was my carry gun for about six months until I replaced it with the P365 shortly followed by thr P365XL.

Easy peasey....
Lease a 1 mile section of elevated rail track between Waipahu and Kapolei.

Charge a fee to ride the train to set up targets and return to the firing line.

The city derives some income from an otherwise monetary black hole.

We get a long distance range in first class style.

Sounds like a win-win situation to me.

Are you back home?  Or still on the mainland?  If you're back home, I got some ammo for ya.   :thumbsup:

Thanks!! I'm in Ohio. I got a small stash going, but it's been enough to make me feel a little better during this 'rona n riots mess :-\

Running low on TP tho...

PHIL!!! You're back!  At least online.  Haven't seen ya in forever man!  How have you been?  Besides gallivanting all over the US.   ;D

Oh man, gallivanting all over the US...that's one way of putting it  ;D

So far, so good.  I learned some things hazardous to my wallet like ordering ammo online, range membership, and AR pistols.  I've been meaning to visit since March, but I'd only be able to take a few days off of work at a time and I don't wanna spend the entire time quarantined in my parents' house.  Hopefully soon!!

Howzit?  I'm Phil, and I used to be pretty active on here a while back.  I have since changed careers a couple times and moved more times.  Sometimes I miss Hawaii and would like to keep up to date on what's going on.  I may stick around again here or maybe not...don't know yet.  Either way, here's the first step!

was it hard to find more .22lr mags for your upper?  how much do they cost?

Never bought an upper.  I searched for one I wanted, but none held the bolt back through a reload.

Tried a drop-in conversion and didn't like it.  Failures just about every other round, shooting it both dry and wet.  If you're not using plated bullets, you'll be fouling your barrel with lead.

Just about all uppers don't hold the bolt back on reload (they'll hold the bolt back on the last round, but it goes shut once the magazine is removed).

I can't believe I waited this long to get an M&P15-22.  Works exactly like my AR, with a few additions, looks exactly like my AR, and is just as fun (if not more fun…I'm spending less!) as my AR.  I was iffy when I first paid for it, but now I have absolutely no regrets…well, other than not buying it earlier!

the thing about a good all metal GBB airsoft G19 is that by the time your done buying all the crap needed for one, you might was well go out and buy real one and save on the price of a toy.  You can buy paint bullets for a real G19 although idk what the legality of using them would be here. 

if you want to shoot at home, you can always use wax bullets and just primers in a real glock check this out some backyard or indoor fun



AFAIK, Simunition® doesn't sell to civilians.

Wax bullets won't cycle a semiautomatic, and I found that the primers slide out of the brass just far enough to lock up my SP101.  Since there's no powder, the case doesn't get pushed back by the expanding gas with the primer, and it could potentially lock up a cylinder, depending on the model.  I had a no-so-fun time unloading my revolver after trying.

The pic comes out right side up when you tap on it.  May just have to finally make it down to Murphy's to try their Guinness draft.  Would definitely like to try the Smithwicks draft also if they got it.  Enjoying a few Longboards @home right now though.

All I got here at home is a 25 oz can of Bud.  Oh well.  I'll be there Thursday night!

He is a nice guy, but is that the only shirt he has? Maybe he's waiting for somebody to give him a cool new 2A shirt!

I talked to him a few times at WGS, and he really likes his tattered shirt!  He said his daughter keeps trying to get him new shirts, but he prefers what he has on.  Very nice guy though.  Maybe we should get him a 2aH shirt?

Is the Guinness on tap a lot better than what's in the stores?  I've never tried the draft, but didn't really like the store stuff.  I do really like Smithwicks though and it's become one of my favorites.

I don't have a genuine Guinness glass at home (yet), and there's something nice about having a bartender pour you a cold glass of Guinness after a day of hard work.

Chad is the MAN!  He used to always draw clovers on the Guinness head with the pouring beer, but he made bats, jack-o-lanterns (Halloween), turkeys (Thanksgiving), and now, Christmas trees.  Every Guinness served by Chad has his personal art in it!

EDIT: Sorry, the picture was right-side-up on my computer.  IDK why the forum tilted it 90º left.
