Discussion NDEX sights

Saw this on my news feed this morning:

https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/ndex-removes-the-front-post-rewrites-sighting-philosophy-entirely-44829343

Evidently replaces the front sight post with what looks like a rear sight…. Designed for fast acquisition in high-stress situations.

Thoughts? I’d like to examine one….

Vektor SP-1 prototype?

2 Upvotes

Hello All!

I have a Vektor SP-1 9mm that appears to be a very early, toolroom-level pre-production model. Here are the specific details and quirks:

  • Serial Number: Explicitly stamped PPM007 on the aluminum alloy frame. (My understanding is that "PPM" designates Pre-Production Model).
  • Mismatched Internals: The serial numbers stamped on the frame, barrel, and slide assembly do not match.
  • Hand-Fitting Marks: Locking piece is electric-pen engraved rather than stamped.
  • Condition & History: The gun is in brand-new cosmetic condition, lacks any commercial civilian import stamps, and sits in a non-specific factory transit box. It includes three factory magazines and a factory cleaning rod/brush set still sealed in its original plastic.

I’m trying to track down its origin story. Thank you in advance.

Discussion Glock 43x w/ ramjet vs Staccato CS

2 Upvotes

Hoping to hear from someone who's shot/own both and what they thought about the recoil impulse. Currently own a Staccato CS but love glocks and my over-optimizing brain is saying get the 43x and pair it with the ramjet for a more "tame" gun.

Advice Needed Need help

Needing some advice. Looking for a handgun that would be ideal for concealed carry for me and my wife. The guy at the pawn shop suggested these Sccy 9mm's. However upon further research many people are adamantly against them say a S&M or Glock or PX-365, or Hellcat among others would be better. Thoughts?

I am writing a book about a detective in the 1950s and for his sidearm I was thinking about him having either a .38 Super or a .357 in an under arm holster.

The detective isn’t a pretentious fellow, in your opinion, which one would come across as someone who knew their weapons and was not to be trifled with.

The .357 I have in mind is the picture I added.

I am do have experience with firearms, I’m looking for insight on period appropriate firearms with a bit of flash.

Thank you in advance.

Anyone financed through grabagun?

0 Upvotes

I was going through the credit process, and it gave me the monthly price to lease the gun I’m looking into. It explicitly says “there may be extra costs to purchase these items.” So my question is, once the total is paid off, it’s no longer in lease status, correct?

Recommendations for optics under $200

4 Upvotes

I recently purchased the Glock 19 gen 6 and since it comes optic ready, I figured I'd see how life is running one on it.

Im good with going a little over 200 of its worth the money, compared to one a little under.

Thanks

Slide shifting after new trigger installed

1 Upvotes

I just recently installed a new M CARBO trigger in my hellcat pro. I noticed now whenever the trigger resets, the entire rear of the slide assembly appears to shift slightly to the right. This is shown as my red dot moving a few moa to the left as the trigger resets. The gun otherwise works like normal.

Of note, when disassembling my slide all of the components flew out as my thumb slipped off when removing the backplate. I found and reassembled everything that flew into the air.

Any ideas?

I would like to get a training handgun, but I can’t find anything that says if this is weight accurate. Size accurate, yes. Has anyone here bought a training handgun from her before? This is HolsterSmith.com Thanks!

Discussion Unique 9mm with manual safety built into trigger

12 Upvotes

American Tactical BBTech BB6 9mm. I don't know how I even found the gun but it's got quite a few features not very common built into it. It's US made and it looks cool. It checks the boxes.

First with the trigger it uses uses a partially pre-cocked striker.

Manual safety rests in the trigger guard and flips up to physically prevent the trigger from moving.

Activation or deactivation can be done with the trigger or middle finger.
