Tarnished projectiles from American

Was a little bored so I loaded up 50 of the newly cleaned 115's and boy are they good.  Loaded them at 6.2 Power Pistol so we will see tomorrow!!  Craig

Hopefully they will work well for you

The GX4 is about as lightweight as it gets unless you get into something really small with a potentially lower capacity. I carry my GX4 periodically in the Vedder Pocket Locker and is perfect when the utmost discreetness is necessary.

Keltec P15, which just released, is a whopping 30% lighter than the GX4, but carries 15 rounds.  By my math, using 124 grain speer +p Gold Dot weight (197 grains), the P15 will weigh in 21.5 oz fully loaded 15+1.  There are 13 round (maybe 12) flush fit mags for the P15 and with one of those the P15 weighs the same loaded as the GX4 empty.

The P15 is 0.20" longer and 0.60" taller, but is 0.125" thinner.  And, according to a puff piece by TFB-TV it has resolved the heavy, gritty trigger that plagued the P11. 

Note that the P15 barrel is a full 4" barrel the 3.0" of the GX4.  This will deliver a significant boost in ballistics.

Right now they are selling on GB for over MSRP, but after the "new gun" frenzy dies down I may have to grab one of these.

Hum I have always liked Keltec stuff so I will look at one when I can find it.  I miss my PF-9. Craig

I don?t know anything about the P15 that Sqlbullet was referencing, but would be worth looking into. The only Kel-Tec I have shot is my friends PMR-30, and is surprisingly fun weapon in 22WMR, not to mention, the trigger is incredible for a sub $400.00 weapon

Here is the video where I learned about it.

I looked a a couple of local places and they didn't have it. Most hadn't even heard of it. That sums up the local crap I deal with.  Craig

GB 😀

[gadabout]

Yeah Ken one store looked it up on GB and they had it but I need to hold a gun in my hand before plunking down large money. GB was even a little high priced compared to other local dealers but they did have it where as nobody local had it. Craig

[Kenk]

Good point on holding it first. My best friend from high school is a huge GB guy, and has learned their system well, a little too well as he put it. Dave?s one of these guys that?s single, makes a ton of money, and just bids at will, must be rough huh 😀

I realized a few years ago that I bought guns as I didn't get enough free time to shoot.  So instead of enjoying the guns I had, I dreamed that the next gun would be fun to finally shoot.

I now have a smallish collection by true collector standards, but quite a few guns by most other standards.  Also, lots of my grown kids still keep their guns in my safe rather than in their apartments/starter homes. (and don't get me started on the cost to get a home these days).

Absolutely, our youngest daughter at 24 just closed on a townhome in the city?s. It?s an ok place, but has substantially less of everything than our 3 bedroom rambler out in the sticks, and for a ton more money. Just glad we bought ours 20 plus years ago

Just got in another 1000 tarnished 9mm 115g FMJ from American. I think I have like 200 left over from the first 1000 but this is nice as I can clean when I want but 200+ are in the wet tumbler as I post this. I don't think these are as bad as the first one's were but I though what the heck I would polish them anyway.Isn't but something to do.  Craig

[gadabout]

Well the first group came out like new so i have another group in the wet tumbler. I did something different this time as I used the same water with the Limeshine and Dawn already in the water. We will see.  Craig
