What gun did you buy today?

[benenglish]

That was my first and last Herrera video. What an idiot.

Like any YouTuber, when he strays out of his lane he can look bad. That was one of the worst vids I've seen from him.

Give him a few more chances and you might actually become a fan.

FN 502 Tactical 22LR. Can't wait for the weather to get warm so I can get to the outdoor range to try it out.

Mine is missing the carry handle which I will try and replicate. And I am already working on a flashlight mount using the factory mounts.

A few years ago I heard that Sarco had parts, enough to actually make full functional guns.

It might be worth checking into that.

That was my first and last Herrera video. What an idiot.

The gun he borrowed is beat to shit, and missing the butt detent. Looks like he was shooting low brass yet it still functioned. I really question his self proclaimed “weapon design” background based on some of his observations and comments.

Every word of this were my exact thoughts while watching this video!

I held my tongue to prevent someone from getting a case of the butthurt, in case that was someone’s fav Youtuber.

Unless, I missed it in the video, the M10 B came out in the 70’s and was pretty radical for the time. Heck, I don’t know if the term “bullpup” was even used back then.

I can’t believe these experts couldn’t figure out that the twirly buttplate was designed so you can rest the gun in the crook of your arm with the twirly against your bicep. Yeah, not so tactical, but neither is a Mossberg Shockwave.

Another radical thing about the gun, it had a 2 D cell flashlight mounted on top. For the 70’s this was very forward thinking! Most of the ones I have seen had the flashlights.

1950s, actually. Designed by a police officer who sold the design to Hi Standard, and they refined it. A complete, non-damaged example is reliable and easy to use, from what I've seen and read. When you start with one that's busted, you get shitty results like Brandon did.

Sooooooo, this happened today. Pawnshop find. So ugly, but kinda cool at the same time. High Standard Model 10b.

I've wanted one of those for YEARS.

He's usually not that much of a dipshit. I'm not sure WTF was going on in that video, but he seriously fumbled. Starting with using a beat-up example that's missing parts and building from there.

He did at least admit that it didn't misfire or fail while he was using it. But he made a fool of himself in the process.

By all means, if you are referring to me, don't hold your tongue on my account. I shared the video because I found it a coincidence of never hearing of the gun before Herrera's video to someone on the forum purchasing one almost immediately after I watched the video. As with anything, I take everything on the internet with a grain of salt and encourage others to do the same.

It's funny...after watching Hererra shit all over the 10B (and make himself look like a fool for the way he went about it), I did a quick YouTube search and found a bunch of others showing how easy it is to shoot and how innovative it is, especially considering the design is over 60 years old now. A common complaint was the swiveling buttstock, but none of them had it fall off because of a missing part and blamed that on the design. And all of them understood why it swiveled.

But I think he was referring to criticizing a YouTuber and being dogpiled by said YouTuber's fanatical fans. Which I don't think is a danger around here.

Had one back in the late 80's. Brings back memories.

No, I was referring to anyone and everyone. I’m not a big YouTube guy, so I didn’t know if this guy was loved like Hickock45 or not.

2.5 to go with the 3 inch I bought last year.

 

[Grumps21]

Against my better judgement, I picked up a S&W 457 at the local pawn. It’s their value line of third gen autos. This particular one is a .45acp compact single stack

WE expect a range report.

Couldn't pass this up. Got an ok deal on this bundle.

Picked this one up this week. A very sleek CZ 457 Jaguar in 22lr

Something that is now my most expensive 1911 I've bought to date....Wilson Combat Supergrade Profession X-TAC 45.

 

[Cool 'Horn Luke]

I like those alternate grips. What are they? Will look even better sticking out of a custom leather holster.

Thanks - not sure of the wood, but they're Wilson grips, so they should be able to tell you.....
