Welcome to the IHoP v.2

[Quentin Jarrell 671]

I've got a browning buckmark. It needs a good cleaning. The slide keeps catching bullets

[topgun 262]

Hose it out with brakeleen and go at it.

Mine did that here and there too. I used the federal ammo with the copper jacket, and that helped alleviate some of the build up.

[Quentin Jarrell 671]

I use federal. It's just old. Hasn't been cleaned in ages. I use it to shoot rabbits around the house.

If you somehow don't already have a case of it

[Aaron Clinton 2,372]

Great workout.

[Duran 387]

How about a Taurus 738 TCP?

[Duran 387]

Bah, I suppose it isn't quite large enough.

[Quentin Jarrell 671]

Only Taurus pistols I have are a 850, 650, and a three inch judge.

[Duran 387]

Looking at this guy, either the 9mm or .40  http://www.cabelas.com/product/Shooting/Handguns/Semiautomatic-Pistols%7C/pc/104792580/c/105526980/sc/105529680/Smith-Wesson174-SDVE-Pistols/753244.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Fshooting-handguns-semiautomatic-pistols%2F_%2FN-1102339%2FNs-MIN_SALE_PRICE%3FWTz_l%3DSBC%253BBRprd753244%26WTz_stype%3DGNU&WTz_l=SBC%3BBRprd753244%3Bcat105529680

Never messed with any of S&W stuff. Had problems with their shot guns and we never messed with any of their stuff after that.

This is probably my favorite pistol.

That's what she said.

[Duran 387]

You dog, you

[Tirefryr 1,742]

My son says that all the time. Pretty wild coming from a 4 year old.

Depth would likely be 1". I'm trying to make some stall bars: http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/1190/stallbarsdbarclay12.jpg

Hopefully glue and screws will make up for any small differences between the indentations.

Get a set of forstener bits. You should be able to find a cheap set st the home store for about $20. They will drill flat and work faster than a wood bore.

Perfect, ordered off amazon.

I'd make a jig/guide.  If you can clamp your drill in a vice and slide the board up to it or the like.  Goal is to keep it perpendicular and centered.  Any drift and things won't mate and will look lik

e crap.

Hmmm. I can definitely clamp the drill in a vice, but can't imagine keeping the board perpendicular (8' long).

Too big of a hole to plunge route?

 

The router I have is fixed. Guess this gives me a reason to buy a plunge router. Hole is 1-1/4"

 

That'd be a HUGE router bit.  Forstner set is your best bet.  Be nicer on a press to guarantee the angle, but just be careful.

[///M5 2,833]

Another 50mi lunch.  I'm a sweaty fucking mess.  Really wish the temps would drop.

I'll just have to go slow, should be alright.

What's the current temp? Temp here keeps jumping around from 40s to 70s. Got use to 30s, then 40s, and then jumping to 70s and I'm sweating like a pig. Then I imagine summer riding in 100s. *headshot*

I wouldn't buy it...  Little more money and you are in M&P territory.  

[Quentin Jarrell 671]

I paid $250 for mine with a leather wallet.

M&P, glock, and XDm are my top picks. And they are in the 500-600 category new. You get a great kit and the ability to either costomize or replace parts easily.

This is for home defense right? If so buy the largest physical she and you can handle. Compacts are not your friend, full frame is.

It would be cool to have at that price.

[Adrian_D 520]

Nonetheless, I'm back, I know you missed v1

v2 and v3 merged in.

 

 

Thank you ! 

[topgun 262]

Buy what you can afford to shoot, she is comfortable shooting, and enjoys to shoot.  It doesn't do a damn bit of good if you are afraid to shoot the ting, don't know what you are doing, and can't hit shit.  

[dem beats 1,223]

I just wrote a lengthy post spilling all the details I could about home protection and firearms and decided to delete it.

If you want to know more, I will get into it, but getting caught up on equipment and theory is no good. Buy a quality firearm like the M&P, and a truckfull of ammo and shoot the shit out of it. That is the most important.
