Yeah, I could get maybe a finger and a half on that grip if I'm lucky, that would be a pretty interesting thing to fire.

You could try a kriss vector to use Glock mags.

Gotta admit those kriss's in 10mm carbine really interest me.

that would be a crime because gun design peaked at straight stick mag mp5s

glock mag mp5 would be a perversion as the mag would be angled wrong

Yeah, the company canned it before going into bankruptcy I think. I was excited enough for it that I bought three 33 rd Glock mags for it too :(

I still want a pistol carbine, but there's drawbacks to all the available ones. Keltec seems kinda primitive, hi point is single stack for some god drat reason. The Ruger PCC seems interesting, I really want a bullpup pistol carbine though.

And what's the hype behind 10 mm? It seems like it doesn't do anything 9mm, 40 s&w or 45 can't do better.

Yeah, .357 magnum oomph with .40 capacity. It's pretty snazzy, but some people find it a bit much in a handgun, seems ideal for a carbine.

You can but they're uncommon and expensive. I don't think any of the ones made by HK are transferable.

For reals though if you are stuck with indoor ranges pistol calibers make sense

You will find no one to help you here. Beth DuClare has been dissected and placed in cryonic storage.

So today I took the new shotgun (Beretta 1301 Comp 21" barrel) out to 3-gun. First time shooting it. Observations:

1. I need a tighter choke. It came with an IC and it wasn't dropping steel or flipping the spinner as well as Bloodshot with its 18.5" with IM choke.
2. The shotgun chest rig that I got dropped rounds a few times while running.
3. I need to slow the hell down, cause just because it's a semiauto doesn't mean automatically faster stage times.

Also the gel seals on the right earcup of my Sordins blew out and for a half hour before someone told me, it looked like Gumby had busted a nut all over the side of my head.

At least I smoked the all pistol stage pretty well!

I got the newer one, but in the comp lineup, there's not a huge difference outside of the serial number being relocated. (Used to be just above the loading port, now is above the trigger. This way it's easier to hog out the loading port if you want to.)

I can't wrap my head around how you're supposed to place your hand/finger(?) around that little thingamajig underneath on the front part. Does your whole hand go in front of it, or do you you thread the thing between your hand or something?

Yeah I'd honestly prefer some kind of rifle sights or ghost rings, but there's no easy way without some gunsmith mods. Something like this would be nice: https://forums.brianenos.com/topic/217452-beretta-1301-rear-sight-install/

(It's a Beretta though, you think I'd ever buy a Remington product? :v: )

Whole hand in front of it, that way it gives somewhere for the bottom of your hand to pull back against.

How is it a trap gun? Beretta markets it deliberately for 3 gun.

The vented rib and fiber optic bead said trap gun to me, but 21" barrel length not so much. Why didn't they at least tap for ghost rings or rails then, isn't that what dudes usually run in 3-gun? :shrug:

e: looking into it a bit, apparently not. Personal preference skews toward a bead it looks like.

Not really, I was the odd ball out for using ghosties on my Mossberg. (And for using a pump gun in general.) Most guys, especially the more serious ones, use fiber optic fronts.

Does that mean you have to run slugs through the sxs and the semi or pump? I'm assuming the sxs is a sawed-off to fit the pistol category here.

Speaking of short shotguns, I tried one of those Mossberg shockwaves and it cured me of any desire to buy one. The grip is angled to such a degree that you can't one hand it, and if you can't do that, what's the point?
