Came across this video today and I figured I’d share it because it a good video for training. IMO

Great example of an Accidental Discharge, how to handle it and why pointing your gun in a safe direction is very important while loading.

For the less educated among us, unlike Negligent Discharges which are caused by the shooter an Accidental Discharge usually happens due to an equipment malfunction and are rare. The shooter in the video was using a heavily modded CZ for competition shooting. The sear didn’t engage fully and the hammer followed the slide and since the firing block pin safety was disabled the pistol discharged.

I have to give props to the range officer for reacting positively to the situation, immediately using it as a training moment and praising the shooter for handing it well.

Huge shout out to 2A3D print. :tup::tup:

They 3D printed a drill guide for us visually challenged individuals, so we could drill straight holes in our P80 kits. :yum::yum:

Both my full and compact size P80s are drilled and have had the extra material removed on the rails. The only thing left to do is mill out the recoil spring channel. I test fitted the two metal parts that make up the rails and they drop in and line up with the holes I drilled. :tup::tup:

No real world experience with DD but I haven't heard anything bad about them.

I love that an internal DNS mess up caused it and it was soooo bad that it physically locked them out of buildings and that the techs had to physically access routers/serves to fix it. :icon17:

The best part is, with all the whistleblower stuff and now this FB lost $7B today. :rofl2:

Indeed! :tup:


Back to firearms:

Looking for lightweight semi auto 308s that run AR10/SR25 mags.
Other than the POF Rogue (5.9 pounds :icon14:), what other rifles are out there?
