What reasonable gun do you want, but haven't pulled the trigger on?

Really considering selling my Girsan M9 clone for a Tisas Aviator....those things are NICE....

Tisas 1911 Aviator 9mm 4.25' Aluminum Black Slide Black Rubber Grips 10100127 (+$19.99 Shipping)

<p>The Aviator is our newest carry sized pistol built using an aluminum frame and forged steel slide for a lightweight, but rugged firearm. The reminiscent form factor has all the features of a classic 1911, but we have added an enhanced set of GI style sights with a brass bead insert in the...

needs to be in cart for price. That is aluminuminum frame version.

Even if you don't suppress it, the suppressed gas plug really helps. The aug is extraordinarily over gassed. Make sure you get the standard aug, not the NATO version

After having a pizza at Juliet’s in the Austin Arboretum Wednesday, I could really use one of those gas plugs.

Very nice looking picture,
But the description in specifications shows: Caliber .45ACP
The heading and block at the bottom of page shows correctly 9mm.
This is really a good price. Turkish money has devalued a lot in past 5 years. But they are capable of making good firearms.

The 9mm is what I want. Thought I linked it. Sorry for the confusion....

It is 9mm correctly in 2 places, but in one it shows 45ACP. Suspect they use only 1 image for both calibers and did not illustrate both images.

Great catch, TX! They offer both, same price. Buy both, then decide.

Have you done business with that company? I have never heard of them. Turkey is trying to break into markets in the USA, their economy is a disaster, very high inflation. If Erdogan the Islamist was not the President (aka Dictator) of Turkey I would not feel bad doing business with them.

I recently bought some old fashioned cake shaving soap that was made in Turkey, Williams shaving soap went our of business a few years ago, and I still shave with a mug and brush. It is very hard to find. Before that, I bought some made in China. The Chinese shaving soap was soft, but it lathered easily and did the job. I have not tried the Turkish soap yet, but it looks good.

Still shopping for components to build a lightweight 10/22

It’s fun looking at the options

It‘s not cost effective (can buy one with all the upgrades I want for cheaper)… but just like the ARs I assembled… it’s fun to mix and match and build a unique one

 

[Pistol Pete]

I'll know it when I see it.

Unfortunately I have done biz with Family Firearms and they were top-notch. They didn't charge me sales tax, but I'm not sure if that is still the case. They regularly sell below my dealer's cost somehow- volume?

Mossberg 590 with Ghost Ring sights.

Smith and Wesson model 66 (2.75 inch) with Pachmyr grips. I have a -69 with the 2.75 inch barrel which is a great trail gun.

So USPS shows they delivered my DOE upper at 2:28 to the front porch. I did receive my 4 new Colt's SMG magazines, they were in the box. I sure as hell cannot find any box on my front porch. I sure hope that lazy bitch did not slip it onto a bag & hang to from my out going mail flag like she has been doing.

I all ready contacted the guy who built it. Tomorrow at 8:30 I'm calling the post office. Perhaps it went back with her on the truck, she better hope so!

I order this back in December on the 18th. Having to wait that long again just aint going to work for me. Just more reason to look down on out government.

Glad to know that. I like those kinds of companies.

On the web today many are not real, just scams. Makes you appreciate the solid businesses, especially the Non-Corporate type.

I have my dads shave mug and brush.

I bought the shaving soap made in Turkey from Drug Emporium. It was a new line, I bought 2 cakes, wished I have bought more. Most of them had disappeared when I went back. They have a mail order place on the East Coast

I have never bought anything from them, but here is what appears to be the Turkish company outlet.

If you can find them at Drug Emporium, you might get a great deal. They buy right on a lot of things.

I buy my Personna double edge razor blades in a 100 pk for something like $18. That lasts me a year or two. Bought my last 2 orders from an place on Ebay. There is not other blade I even consider now. Very sharp, each blade wrapped in waxed paper cover. When you use a blade take the new wax paper and fold it over the old razor blade and Scotch tape it shut. Throw it right in the trash.

I'd like to get a 4" Model 29 or 629 44mag.

And a Browning Hi-power.

I'm getting close

[billtool]

I’m eyeballing a 10mm. Would likely go Tisas. I don’t want another caliber though. That’s the reason I don’t own a .44 like @db_tanker mentioned above just because of that. Dammit.
