It sucks that ruger basically took the p3at design for the LCP, I have found the LCP more dependable and better at feeding hollowpoints, but ymmv.

I hate ruger because they don't support the second amendment.

I hate kel tec because their mad scientist owner likes to make awesome guns, then have runs of 100 of them once a year, because he is too busy with R and D on another awesome gun.  They never pick up the slack in manufacturing, and spend all the efforts in R and D.  Then you end up with RFBs and KSGs being IMPOSSIBLE to find, and EXPENSIVE.

.380... eh.


.45 Colt Commander... can't wait till I get one for myself or convince my father to sell me his.


My dad has a Commander too. I'll get it from him... when he dies. It has a stainless frame and a blued slide. Nice looking gun.

Can't argue with you on the kel-tec points you make... The rfb/ksg/rmr situation pisses me off too.

I have absolutely nothing planned yet. I'm leaning towards a pistol, but nothing is set yet.

Out of curiosity- why the integrated trigger guard?

That's just the way Quentin runs them. I'm not that much of an AR guy so I'm not sure of the disadvantages, especially since its big and will allow the use of gloves easily. I personally like the way it looks.

Are there any disadvantages? I can see so if it were small and you couldn't go bigger, but not the other way around.

I personally don't see any disadvantages from it.  Although one could say if you dropped the gun and it landed on the trigger guard it might crack or break some of the lower, rather on a standard lower just crack the guard piece.  But that probably wont happen.


This is cool:

The only real downsides are that you're limiting some grip options, especially those with integrated guards (magpul), the breakage factor and inability to replace just the guard, and for me the aesthetics. I like the flat guards... I've ran plenty of M16's while wearing thick winter gloves and I never felt a need for an enlarged trigger guard. Same with the other soldiers I've talked to.
