I’ve used both several times, Arfcom is smoother to browse

And there feedback system is pretty helpful

Agreed. Armslist is outdated. But it’s way more prevalent in rural western Ohio.

Relatively new to modding glock triggers. Ordered just a double diamond connector and competition spring set from TGS (which will ship whenever the crown in CA wills it, apparently). Any pitfalls to watch out for with these? I'm just looking for less creep and a lighter pull. Don't want to turn my sidearm into a sideshow.

That take it to a 3.5lbs?

Spring set can do as low as 2.5 or up to 6 i think? A bunch of different options for like $15

I’ve always used either completely custom or Ghost triggers. For $15 I’m gonna order one to try it out

I don't go crazy with glock triggers I don't polish or shave anything and I try to stick with a factory 3.5 connector I've seen glocks with aftermarket trigger stuff so some weird things after they had some rounds on them

Yea I'm generally wary of aftermarket triggers. Put one in my rifle and it was great...right up until it wasn't. Ended up having to finish a training day manually resetting the thing after every shot.

What brands and models does everyone like for sidearm lights?

I’m getting a Streamlight TLR-6 for mine

Yeah I was wondering who makes a good flashlight/laser combo for a pistol

@BugsyBaldwin streamlight I believe does depending on what it is

@BugsyBaldwin - Don't get wrapped up in the laser craze, it is a Hollywood gimmick. You will waste valuable life saving micro-seconds looking for a little red light in shitty conditions instead of focusing on the threat theatre. By the time you acquire where your beam is you have two in your chest and one in your head.

True I just figured it would be nice to have the option for it

@BugsyBaldwin - Just get the flashlight, trust me.

10-4

I’m wouldn’t mind getting my slide milled for a red dot so I could still have my irons as well

@[MS] Foxtrot795 - I just can't wrap my head around any red dot lasting a long time riding a slide back and forth so violently. That kind of abrupt movement can't bode well for the red Dot's longevity.

@[VA] JediComms from my understanding, they’re designed to hold zero even under violent hits like rapid fire situations as long as it’s a decent brand like Vortex or Holosun. I almost bought a Vortex Venom for my Shield, but talked myself out of it so I could finish my AR

The cable for the light isn’t on it anymore. I went back to a regular end cap and added 45 degree brackets for my irons

Then here’s the engravings I had done on it by mine and @yeetasaurus local gun shop.

@[MS] Foxtrot795 - The design might be good on paper but until they're been run hard over an extended period of time, I dunno. Take for example the anti-dive forks on Muscle and Sportbikes from the early 80s. Looking at the engineering diagrams and such, they worked great on paper. When they actually hit the streets none of them made a different and the manufacturers abandoned the effort after only a few model years.

Right. I can definitely see that side of the things. I do TONS of research and read reviews before I buy things like that though. If there’s not a torture test video on it, I won’t even look at it twice.

One rifle I have yet to dress up at all but it works so well just bare bones

That’s like my truck. Why on EARTH GM went away from rack and pinions and did idler and pitman arms in the OBS trucks I’ll never understand. Good idea on paper, horrible from a practical standpoint.

@BugsyBaldwin - SKS? What stock is that?

VZ58 in 7.62x39

Czech Small Arms

@BugsyBaldwin - The bolt is very SKS like.

Okay I’m a little late here and I’m sorry but I fucking HATE lasers

Unless they’re IR lasers(sometimes), but I still hate lasers

That’s how mine was. I bought it as a basic rifle and just built off the bones of it. I’ve always been a fan of the M&P series and been a S&W guy. I watched a meltdown video from Iraqveteran8888 on the M&P-15 and it made it to 820 rounds of full auto fire, handguard on fire, melting off and everything, and the only reason it stopped is the gas tube eroded, but could still be fired like a bolt action. Between that and the price, I was sold on it.

Basically the VZ58 is a beefed up cross between the gewer43 the stg44 and AK47

In full auto its 800 rpm and fairly lightweight and extremely durable and reliable

@BugsyBaldwin - How is the accuracy? SKS will outshoot an AK for accuracy but has shortcomings in other areas.

@[VA] JediComms it's extremely accurate for being a combat rifle designed for combat at 300 yards I can put one on top of the other at 100 yards with Iron sights

Holy fuck
