Let's talk about 45s. No grip safeties allowed. I think pic related will be my next purchase. Can you think of a reason not to get a p227?
>>28530754
>Can you think of a reason not to get a p227?
yes, the fnx 45 exists
>>28530915
squishie squishie
>>28530754
Planned as my next purchase too so no argument from me.
>>28530754
1911s and Thompsons are litterally the only reason I would ever get a .45.
I love my 220 elite. Carry it every day.
>CZ97BD
literally the only noteworthy modern .45
>>28530754
You have to get fuckhuge extended mags to hold 14 rounds. That is absolutely unacceptable.
Literally a waste of time, you are better off buying >>28530915
>>28530754
Here's my old P220. It was the only gun I have ever regretted selling...
So, today I fixed that and put money down on a P220. Now I'm just waiting for funds to clear into my account and I'll go back to pick it up. Feels good. Feels reeeaaal good.
My Jericho 941 in .45acp is my favorite hand gun... Next to my Colt Trooper .357 magnum Florida highway patrol version 5' nickel plated, a work of art really.
>>28530915
>>28531740
This. And I'm a huge sigfaggot.
If you're gonna get a sig in a .45, just get a p220
Here is a pic of my HK factory color honey mustard baby-shit 45c. I snatched it up the second I saw it. I love it and carry it pretty frequently.
>>28532317
That looks tasty I don't even live in a desert but I want it.
>>28532335
I live in Virginia.. nowhere near a desert. Not at all compatible with the terrain in which I live but it's still great. Most people find it to be a disgusting color so I'm always impressed when other people take a liking to it because its pretty rare
>>28532001
One of the guns I've always regretted selling was my P220. Will probably pick up a 226 though soon since I'm a fag for 9mm

>>28532377
I was in the same boat as you. The only gun I ever regretted selling was my P220. I just passed up a P226 Legion today because I wanted another P220 so badly. Maybe I was stupid. But I fucking missed my P220.
>>28531992
I'd get one if they had a full length barrel option

my USP 45 I know it will not fail me that why i love it can't wait until i can get a P220 or HK 45 (black or green)
>>28532422
Man I love those things, the old S&W metal-framed autos were gorgeous
Especially with the squared triggerguard

>likes polymer that deforms in your hands and has no rigidity

>Wanting a jammomatic that can't reliably feed hollowpoints
>>28533622
the fixed the feed ramp issues on the early 97s more than a decade ago, bruh.
>>28532422
Forgetting at least one, my man.
>>28533642
Did they? I've read more recent complaints on different forums of people still having the issue, but maybe they've just got old guns or something. Even if it was truly fixed though, I still wouldn't feel confident trusting my life to it.
>>28533181
Have you ever had issues with the rounds failing to chamber completely and the slide not closing? I rented a USP 45, and while it was a joy to shoot, I had 4 such malfunctions. Granted, it was a very dirty, beat to shit range rental gun (who knows if it was ever cleaned), and I was shooting Remington UMC, but I was still somewhat disappointed. I really want to like the gun because of how great it felt though.
My favorite gun is the USP series in 45. I have the compact and the tactical, one carry EDC and one for field carry/hunting sidearm/shtf.
>>28532422
Owned one, didnt much care for the single action pull but the DA was godlike
I find /k/'s lack of MK23 disturbing.
The best, unless you're a babbyhands manlet
>>28533896
Lol no.
>>28533894
Dimple suppressor.
Hnnnnnnggggg
>>28533894
I really wanted a Mk. 23 for my first handgun and get the suppressor and LAM and shit but I don't have the four grand to do it
>>28533988
$4000 and it doesnt even come in 10mm
wtf?
>>28534009
I know right?
Well, that's with the LAM and the proper Knight's Mk. 23 suppressor

>single stack being hard to hold for anyone
That's hot a brickgrip like a 45 USP, CZ 97 or FNX 45 bud
>>28530754
I find, comparing the P220 and the P227, the 227 just feels like a cheaper version of a sig with double stack mags.
>>28534223
What's cheaper about it? It's litteraly the same type of construction, locking system, decocker, etc. It's not like the P22x series compared to a P250/P320 series gun.
>>28534009
Well the thing IS built to eat a steady diet of .45 Super at least.
>>28534038
>hating 10mm
>>28534241
Maybe it isn't actually cheaper made, though knowing sig, they'd do that too. I mean it fealt off, like it wasn't actually a sig. Didn't feel smooth and rigid like a high-quality pistol should.
>>28534327
I have had the same experience with the P227, it doesn't feel as solid as a P220.
>>28534053
Thats been fixed
>>28534313
>>28533685
Sounds like a shot out recoil spring. Will happen to any firearm
>>28534975
Has it though?
>>28534987
I highly doubt that, and I'm a 45 shill myself.
>>28533644
fuck I new I missed one
and a CZ too
Going to monitor this thread. I have a .45 can on the way and although I have a 9mm that it can go on, I really want a dedicated .45 host. Local ish shop did have a Mk23, but there's also other HK, FNX45, Sigs, Block 21 etc. Anyone have any recommendations? Either needs to come with or have a threaded barrel available. Sights I'll deal with, it's an Osprey anyway so suppressor height sights aren't a deal breaker.
How is the Glock 21?
>>28535973
A bit big but manageable I guess. I just don't find it comfortable.
>>28534403
I felt this as well but when I commented on it the guy said they shaved a lot of weight of the alloy frame so that the gun was not horribly unbalanced with a full mag. It makes the gun feel very front heavy and much lighter than you'd expect
USP .45 is a good choice too
>>28534060
Shot the USP
Handled the 97
Own an FNX and a 4506
they're all pretty close, if the 4506 has hogues

That's like the same size as an fnx 45 magazine except their tumor is round. Way to double standard.

What's the verdict on the P227?
>>28537345
One of these guns holds 15+1 from the factory.
>>28539065
Just dont. Sig fucked up the design and cant into magazines.
>>28539065
fucktardedly long trigger pull, basically have to make a fist for the thing to go off in DA mode. Sig fucked up with moving away from the wide stamped metal trigger. All skinny triggers on Sigs (as the one pictured) suck dick
![px4stormfull_zoom002[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/ctscGv0.jpg "px4stormfull_zoom002[1].jpg")
Any of you have one of these?
Does the rotating barrel actually do anything?
>>28539821
It spins your suppressor off if you use one.
So is owning a Mark 23 a meme?
Im looking at a first pistol and since Canadian can only have 10 round mags anyway.
I was pretty sold on 9mm because I associate 45 with 1911s and some fag Vermonter i meant once who told.menthe 1911 is thebgreatest pistol wver built.
Anyway, I also thought, since I can only have 10 b00lays might as well go larger and get 45 and I know the Mk 23 is as big as a house and costs 2 grand + but i also read about how well its built.
I see a lot of USPs in here but honestly, Mk 23 is just fucking cooler.
So would I be a fag for buying a mk 23?
To give you perspective...my other gun is a Tavor.
>>28538520
The black quad was alright. The rest was just stuff I hadn't had at HEB.
>>28540110
You're a fag for caring about if it's a meme gun, and the fact that you call it that doubly so.
Just get one if you want it. It's a nice and reliable, if slightly outdated, platform.
And remember that you're a fag whether or not you get one.
a challenger appears.
>>28540134
I personally dont see why its outdated.
I think striker fire is gay and DA/SA is the best.
I knownim a fag. And i know no matter what /k/ is gonna shit on my gun choices.
>>28540153
I would agree with you. Just some people get all antsy cause it doesn't have the tacticool rails. But yeah, go for it, faggot
:)
Had a P220 a while back, ended up getting rid of it. This one was made before Sig moved to Exetershit. Overall the older Sigs are just not as refined and well built as the newer CNC machined Sig.
-way looser slide/frame fit
-trigger blows compared to modern Sigs
-crap Blued finish instead of Nitron
It's super reliable though, but older German Sigs just really can't compare to modern Sigs.
>>28530754
>No grip safeties allowed
Awwww, but what about XD?
Does a Mk 23 absolutelt require +p 45 or will it cycle reliably with just regular old 45?
>>28540291
>Hahahahaha
>XD
>>/reddit/
>>28540300
The MK23 will cycle anything, people say shit about the USP as well and that shit cycles anything. Its designed to shoot +p and has the chambering to shoot +P better than any other pistol.
Almost walked out of Cabelas with this today. If it was like 40 bucks cheater I could of justified paying the premium over buying it online and having it to to my FFL
>>28540153
well the tavor does suck but youre not a fag specifically for your gun choices
yes get the mk 23 its a very solid gun and sell the tavor
>>28540383
>$730
>full size Glock
What the hell? Did the assault weapons ban panic already start?
>>28540421
Well it is the long slide Glock so its kinda like the Glock 34. Also Cabelas is over priced, they should be going for around $630 but they are a hot item so it's kinda hard to get them. Truth be told if the snot nose "kid" behind the counter (I know I know calling someone kid on 4chan but the guy looked fresh out of high school) got to me before I checked the prices of em online I would of probably bought it
Also the first time I seen bulk 22 just sitting on shelves. I'm starting to think the guns and ammo market is normalizing
>>28540110
I own it myself and it's a very enjoyable gun with some caveats:
-You pretty much have to have larger than normal hands to comfortably hold it.
-It has a proprietary rail which means unless you have the proprietary lam that it was designed for, you have to buy a 200$ish rail adapter to attach lasers and lights etc.
-It's an older design so finding accessories/sights for it is pretty difficult that doesn't come from hkparts.net.
-Mags are a bitch to buy, but that's H&K across the board.
Other than that, it's probably one of the most comfortable and accurate .45 I've ever shot. Is it worth the price tag? nah. You're buying it for the unique/crazy overengineered supposed durability of the gun and the history it came with, but it still is a very enjoyable gun to own, service and shoot.
>>28540618
>blanking out your serial number
fantastic meme.
So which pistol has the largest capacity? I like shooting and I want a couple .45s but I hate taking the time to reload. Which means either large magazines or lots of magazines. I'd rather have large magazines. I don't mind buying extended mags but I'd rather not spend the extra cash.
Not a glock fan honestly. They never felt right in the hand.
>>28540671
Glock 21 with a Kirss mag extension.
>>28534987
This picture is automatically retarded by suggesting a 9mm has a bigger entry hole than a .380
>NO STAR MEGASTAR IN ENTIRE FUCKIN THREAD
THIS WAS A SHIT THREAD
>>28537405
>best
>not a USP
Only thing the HK45 has over the USP45 is the picatinny rail which you just need a adapter to fix, everything else is inferior to the USP45
I love me a good 45
>>28530754
I want one too
XDM! Woooo! This is the 9mm but they are almost identical
>>28542339
Get that shit out of here.
>>28540671
>>28540700
Largest capacity that isn't a glock?
>>28542853
Thanks anon. All I could find was the XD Tactical 5". Holds 13 normally. I know I've never had issues with my XDs so I admit I trust springfield a bit more.
I'll take a look at the FNP .45. Though between the higher price and the reliability issues you were having I am a bit leery. If I can get a good deal on it I'll probably snap it up.
>>28542356
>FNP 45
You got the FNP 45, had one and sold it. 15 rounds in a stock mag (not flush fitting though) Trigger is meh esp for a gun with a hammer. My gun had a lot o QC issues and had to be sent to FN 3 times before I sold it. Paid shipping each time too. My biggest issue with it was how picky it was with ammo, esp bulk ammo. Would not run WWB or most cheap reloads reliablely
>xDM
I had an xDM 45 long slide, felt good in my hand, never had any malfunctions. Packs 13 in flush fitting mag. Trigger was meh, xDM has enough after market that you can fix that. The xDM snaps a little more during recoil because of the high bore axis. Sold it
>Glock
Have a Glock 41 now, 13 rounds in stock mag, I got a little +2 mag extension that i've shot enough on that i'm comfortable running in my home deference gun. Also have 2 Kriss extensions that gives 30 rounds but haven't shot em yet to know if they are good to go or not. Accessories and magazines are all over the place for these. Did a trigger bar along with a slight polish and i'm happy with the trigger. Out of the 45s I owned this is my favorite out of the plastic guns. If shit went down Tomrrow this is the gun that would be on my hip
>HK
Shot both the MK23 and USP both get a 12 round mag, Mk23. Didn't own either, would think about buying the Mk23 because of muh Soild Snake but it would be a range toy. Both are pricy and magazines are pricy and hard to find. HK has one of the worst customer service around so good luck if you have an issue. Still like my Glock better then both
>>28542911
That got posted before I was ready, here is the complete post
>>28542911
That's all I got on more then 10 round capcity 45s. M&P and SIG both are 10 or less for capacity with standard mags. My pick is still Glock with the USP at number 2. USP is just not price comparable to make it worth while. I know I know poor fag gonna poor but I got a mortgage to pay. Also like how my Glock trigger turned out after some work plus since it's cheap I don't mind singing it up. Rather take the extra money I saved on the glock over the USP and buy ammo.
>>28543094
>>28543107
Thanks again anon. Though my post stands. Leery of the FNP because of the issues you had plus it is more expensive than the XD (m or the tactical). As I said before, I just don't like glock. Feels weird in my hand.
Don't worry about the poor fag syndrome. I'm not much better right now otherwise I would have gotten a Mk 23 for .45 super.
>>28543165
They make 45 super for glocks, was thinking of getting a 460 rowland for my 41.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the SAR K2 45.

Is it safe touse a decocker on a empty chamber or will it harm the pistol like dry firing empty chamber?
>>28551712
