So I grabbed this from my local bass pro today. Was the last one. Was quick since they only put them out last night at 830pm. So I got the one off the wall. But I didn't let the opportunity go to waste, If my Bubby taught me anything it is to get a bargain. Anyway I persuaded the sales guy to knock another 10% off. So now I am looking for the most wish dot com / aliexpress crap to put on it. I am also hoping to source a set of anime side decals. Seems there is a trend of sticking a wrap or skin whatever they are called on the side plates that make it look more trashy. Anyone got any ideas? Also anyone know of a good source for mags? Not sure how long the supplied one would hold up under constant use.

Also why wouldn't they put the front sight closer to the end of the barrel? It would look less stupid and would give a better sight radius. Its only secured with set screws. I wonder if a smith could move it out.

The sight is at the end of the barrel... on the standard 16” barrel. Because Canada requires an extended barrel to be NR, the barrel extends beyond the front sight.

Do you not trust yourself with Allen keys? If it’s only secured with set screws, what can a smith do that you can’t?
 
I got spare mags from prophet river, but i see they only have spares in 40 and 45 right now. Might be worth giving them a call to see if they will bringvin more 9mm.
 
well I took it out today and rand a 50 pack of Winchester Forged though it and it really surprised me. that bullet is moving. I was able to hit a 24"x24" piece of cardboard reliably over and over again at roughly 110 yards.
 
I had mine out today. I quite like it, 9mm. I removed the springs on the pogo stick stock, and the lower barrel rail. Locktite the thread protector and cocking handle bolt. And it fairly accurate at 50m. 25M puts them all in the 10 ring. 50M, Fist size group. Red dot would make it much nicer. 40$ a mag is kinda out to lunch. But I got 2.

You will be alright out to 150m, after that the bullet starts dropping very quickly and significant hold over is needed.

Yes, getting rid of the springs in the butt stock is a definate plus. They are a inexpensive, accurate, little fun gun

dial it in at 50 yards.
you will be bang on at 100.
aim a little lower at very close shots

It might seem odd but I zeroed at 100m myself. I'm using a 4 moa red dot and I rarely miss what I am aiming at out to 150m. The few shots I take farther than that are usually somewhat of a Hail Mary. Using 115/124grn bullets makes a big difference that's for sure.
