Shame they didnt make it compatible with M9/92 mags.  My beretta 10 round mags are the only 10 rounders I couldnt sell before I left island.

The PX4 with 2 Beretta branded LaserMax lasers stacked on the single rail.

Did it just for fun since I have 2 lasers.

Problem with these are not enough vertical movement on my PX4.  I had to use stainless tape to move
     the lasers enough to get either one sighted in at 10 yards.

     

Best thing about them is 20% off and Free shipping.  Got what I order in less than 10 days.

Will most likely get the new combo light and green laser when the price drops.

here are my only 2 children so far.

IA Norinco Hawk 982 & M&P 15-22

the speedfeed furniture on the 982 is somewhat of an anomoly to me. i found myself searching
ebay's shotgun parts section, page by page, not searching for anything in particular (as i'm sure
many of us have found ourselves doing at 3AM) and saw this Speedfeed I set in FDE. i then set
off on a 5 day search through the internet to find ANY other source for non-black speedfeed i stocks.
couldn't find a set and to this day cannot find a set. so i fought for the one set i ever saw in my life. hahaha

the 15-22, being my first firearm purchase, i of course had to add a few things just for fun.
half a year later, i handled and fired an AR-15 for the first time and instantly knew why the 15-22's
are being hailed as excellent training tools. i knew the ins and outs of my friend's M&P 15 despite
having never touched one in my life.

needless to say, when i complete my real AR build, all my trinkets from the 15-22 will find their way
onto the big brother and i won't have to spend an extra dime!

Nice 1903, I got mine in the mail today off of Gunbroker, Rock Island 1903 made in 1918 with a 1912 springfield barrel that looks like a new one. I'll get some pics up as soon as I can. Love those old school rifles!

if you want a quick and easy way to adjust the size of the pic for forum use,
find the file in its folder.
right-click it and select "Edit."  this should open the picture with MS Paint.
in the "Image" tab there is a "Stretch/Skew" option.
now you can enter the percentage of what size you want the picture to be
just be sure that whatever percentage you set your "Horizontal" to, make sure to set your "Vertical" to the same exact percentage so that the picture won't distort.
best to try 75% or so to check size and detail, then if you want to go smaller go lower and lower slowly.

oh and make sure to "Save As" a new filename or you will have changed your original to that size.  :thumbsup:

its from the magpul school of thought where a combat reload is made faster by orienting the shell brass up in a sidesaddle. 
basically, when you get that click with no boom, open your action, cant your shotgun to the left, and load a round from the top.
subsequent feeding of the tube can be done quickly from the other brass-down shells.

practicing in the living room while watching movies probably makes the neighbors wonder just wtf i'm up to hahaha


oh and i ordered it from buds and OGC received it for me.

I was guessing that you had different types of shot. Is there any reason you don't orient them all that way?

i haven't had a chance to take it to the range and practice reloads since i put on the sidesaddle,
but playing in my living room with dummy rounds made me realize the magpul videos aren't all show lol

i tried combat reloads their way (the way i described above) and i tried it the traditional way (pulling a shell downward out of the sidesaddle and reaching under and around the gun to load the breach)
and while both can be done fairly quickly, it was much more likely for me to drop a shell trying to load the traditional way quickly.
turning my gun so that the breach is facing up, pulling one of the first 2 brass-up shells and just dropping it right
in the breach...never dropped a single shell no matter how fast i tried to do it.

its just my preference though. this is my first shotgun. some people have been shotgunning for years
and their muscles may have memorized the traditional way SO well that it would be impractical
to try and learn the way i've been practicing.

and the only different loads i have on the gun are in the stock. 4 slugs are tucked into the speedfeed.
other than that, 6 rounds of 00 buck in the tube and 6 rounds of 00 buck on the saddle  :thumbsup:

Nice shotgun Palaina!  Just curous, why are two of the shotgun rounds are facing a different direction?

Where I have seen this apply is that it would be the difference between your slugs and shots.  If the guy ran out of your effective range you would transition and it helps to have a physical indicator of which was which if you were shooting in the dark.
