The official Status update thread part 4

[ljadayton]

I’ve been collecting those little flat bullets and saving them to make a mixed media painting/sculpture with.

That's a really cool idea Cru Back home I had the idea to save brass and make a no trespassing sign from them

For you? Probably around $50 + shipping.

Hmmmm, have you ever used an MTAC? Any comparison?

My art studio is a mess. I’ll have to get in there and sort out how many I have now. I know one FNS I got handed a TON but some were not really good.

It’ll probably be a year or two before I start it.

 

[magic man]

Note to self: Buy a target stand from Bobcat Steel.

What’s MTAC?

I have used Raven, Mills Tactical, Custom Kydex (Grunt Soldier), and Uncle Mike, or Bob, or whoever the uncle xxxx holster guy is. OH, and the crappy ones that come with XD’s. I’ve also used a bladetech.

Least you have the studio and the idea. That's the hardest part usually

I TOLD you that wood would get chewed up. You didn’t want to believe me, but it’s not like I don’t know what I’m talking about. I shoot steel. A LOT.

Yeah, I found out after I started building it so I didn't really have a choice. Oh well, lesson learned.


And where did I ever say I didn't believe you?

Congrats Benny, that makes one of us that has a G19.

Thanks...I'm pretty stoked. Too bad this BS rain won't go away long enough for me to shoot it.

Yeah Benny, I know we’ve discussed it, but it can’t be said enough times how comfortable a Mills Tac Hybrid is. I can wear mine all the time. Too bad I have to CC with it because I love it.

But I like to OC as much as possible.

Yes, I'm amazed at how comfortable it is.

I prefer to CC, so this thing is pretty much perfect.

Never tried one so I have no opinion. I will say for $35 less you can have one that I KNOW is comfortable, and made in Indiana. You can ask Benny too, he has one.

As for the 2x4s, they’ll last for several range trips, just watch your hands when moving the thing. It’s not like it’s expensive to replace them. $4 here and there.

But I don’t want to cost Kimball a sale, so....

“yeah, buy his target stands because chewed up wood sucks!"

I'll be converting this stand to hold paper or cardboard targets and just leave it at the range.

I haven't tried one either, but I can pretty much guarantee you that you would love the Mills Tactical.

The minotaur might be a little "prettier" looking, but just by looking at it, it doesn't look like it would be as comfortable because the leather doesn't go up as far, so you'd have the back of the slide rubbing your skin/undershirt. You don't have that problem with the MT.

What a weekend... been working pretty much for 48 hours straight.

Magic man... just sent you a PM.

That was my thought. I just don’t know so I hate to say for sure. But if you’re worried about pretty when you buy a holster, you’re buying for the wrong reason... (unless it’s a WTFBBQ gun)
