You will get to fondle I promise.

This may well be the last one.

That's funny. When CM said this might be the last one, the potato chip analogy was what I was thinking too. You always have room for just one more...

I promise not to bore you guys with pictures of my mini-getaway, but patience0830 recommended taking galoshes because of the extreme rainfall. As it turned out, I had to backtrack on trail#2 because McCormick's creek was clear out of the banks. Even galoshes wouldn't have helped here ...... you'd need a jon boat to cross this large area of flooding !

 

[patience0830]

Sure looks soupy.

 

[mcapo]

I remember a couple trail runs at Eagle Creek and Pokagon about that bad. By bad I mean horrible.

 

[MindfulMan]

Usually, by the time I reach that point in the trail, I'd have encountered at least a couple of other hikers coming from the other direction. The swamp kind of explained why I saw nobody else coming down the trail !

Back on track a bit. Coming back home yesterday, I stopped at Bradis gun shop. They had both a PCR and a Rami BD in the case .... which is unusual. So if anyone is looking for either of those, you might want to give them a call. I was tempted, but my gun fund is rather restrictive right now.

 

[wtburnette]

Hey MM, did they by chance have a P10c? Curious as I've had a heck of a time finding one.

 

[wtburnette]

I should say, The Outdoorsman had one of the older style black only ones in stock, but I'm looking for one of the newer models with the new sights.

What/where are some of the better places to enjoy outdoor activities around Greenwood? Looks like McCormicks is about 50 minutes away. Trying to find something to do either Saturday or Sunday with the lady friend.

 

[mcapo]

I’ve had a rough week going back and forth between a PCR and a P10C. I’m hoping Wrigley still has the PCR tomorrow as I’ve decided to stick with steel (err steel and aluminum) for only a couple extra ounces. Maybe a P10c in the future but that PCR just sits perfectly and has the same feel as my only other CZ handgun which is an SP-01.

Yes, I distinctly remember seeing one of those ! It seemed like the frame was gray .... is that possible ? Special edition, or something ? I thought that it was $600 !

'88 lives in Greenwood, so he might have the best information. Morgan Monroe State Forest is only about 30 minutes south, straight down US 37, and is great for hiking.

I was interested in the Rami BD, until I held the PCR ...... and my heart went pitter-patter.
For me personally, I've taken the oath: no more plastic !
Churchmouse is surely proud of me !

That’s kinda what happened to me. I like the Rami but I didn’t realize how light the PCR was. I’m a 1911 and 3rd gen smith fan so my perspective of light is under three pounds.

Not sure CM will be proud of me until I put my 1911 extractors back where JMB put them.

 

[churchmouse]

I am in limbo with 2 slides in the machine shop and a custom on the mill.
I need to rain in for a while.

 

[JonProphet]

Just finished up my first mods on the 75BD. Installed a CGW Blue hammer spring, 14# recoil spring and the matching firing pin spring and firing pin block spring. Put a quick 3 rounds through it. The gun is tightening up a little.

Tightening groups...???

 

[JonProphet]

No, I think the recoil spring and the hammer spring were a bit tired. It feels stiffer, tighter. Will have to wait for the paper test. Just did a function check.

 

[Hopper]

Did someone say PCR?!?

Just picked it up earlier this evening. My online go-to store had one yesterday morning, but I guess I was too slow on the click... got a confirmation email for the order, then a refund message that the last one had been spoken for just ahead of me. I knew Hoosier Armory up my way had some in stock as others on here mentioned recently. They seem to come over the ocean so rarely that I was afraid I could be waiting another year to get ahold of one.

CGW ultra-lite kit will be here Saturday. The stock sights aren't very good, but will do for now until I can decide what to go with. I recall BA, 88, and others crooning about the TFX sights, if I remember right?

 

[88E30M50]

Congrats Hop! I have TFX on a couple of my pistols. I really should go that route with more of them but I'm becoming more of a point shooter and often don't even notice what type of sights a gun has unless I'm punching paper with it. I do love how the fiber optics pop in most light conditions though.
