Off Season Lets Talk Guns, Part 2

Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.


Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon?



Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware?

If your goal is to hit a 2x2 foot target out to 500-600 yards, the 6.5 Grendel will do fine. If you want a decent hunting round to 300, the 6.8SPC will work.


If you want to reach 800-1200 yards and shoot the dick off a fly, go with a 6.5 Creedmoor.

Most 6.5 Creeds will be heavier, though, so if you want a smaller, lighter package that can kill to 700 go Grendel.


I would go 6.5 Creed if you want extreme precision and don't mind the weight, but then again I am a long range shooter.

I've never used gunbroker, although if I can't find any takers for the two I'm getting ready to sell, I may use them for that.

What are you getting ready to sell?


And welcome back.

Yep. And now Chicago's appliance murder rate is the worst in the nation.

That is lower on my list of reasons I'm not interested. I do not like the longer trigger pull that comes with every DAO handgun I have owned or fired. I also do not prefer the smaller calibers. Though if I'm not planning on using a firearm for carry purposes it is less of an issue for me.

These have both been worked on by my gunsmith. The XDm in particular has a much better trigger pull now. But not as good as that CZ.

As far as caliber, I'm more concerned with capacity, and that's a direct reflection of the places I go. I work in the heart of Chicago, and pass through a major transportation hub twice a day; far more likely I'll run into trouble there than a local convenience store. And if I do, 15-17 rounds is better than 8 or 9.
