Noticed something about that suppressed p-7… The suppressor appears to be the same height as the front sight…. I could think of a reason that might not be optimal…
John… The same thing happens with P-22s and a larger diameter suppressor… Really it is not that bad, you know where the sight is so you just line up a small part of the top of the arc of the suppressor on the target. I wouldnt shoot a match like that but it will let you hit paper.
Figured it would be ok for point and click shooting but would not take advantage of the p-7’s accuracy capabilities. A plaything if you will as far as firearms go. I have seen some dedicated suppressors with a “front” sight on them that worked quite effectively.

Heh. Like having brass knuckles for when you run out of ammo…

The inspiration for Glock’s finger grooves has been found!

“United States Property”.
Intriguing.

It’s for that “Shoot Him to the Ground” video guy, the one who punches targets with his snubbie before he starts point-shooting at the berm.

Someone was bored at the Gunsmith a few decades ago, I see.

It is a photoshop job… If you look closely at each grip cut the same tiny blemish is on each one…

Yeah, I see a lot of pixels, man.

John’s a party-pooper. I can see what he’s talking about, though.
Thanks for the link on the Kel Tec, I dig it, too. I’m doing a CZ P01 soon.

Needs a bayonet lug if you ask me.

Jam-a-matic with a Plan B.

It may have brass knuckles as part of the gun but if it has no bayonet lug it’s just another, ya know, gun.
I want all guns to have bayonet lugs, just to PO off the feds.

I gave that bitch a bayonet lug.
Bitches love bayonet lugs.

Forget a bayonet lug, they need to attach the whole bayonet, then nominate it for the waffenposselhaft award!
think “trench knife with gun attached”
1st decent image search hit for Trench Knife

Vote, that is cool. I have wanted a trench knife since I was a kid. Relax, guys, I really am squeamish when it comes to killin’.

A gun with brass knuckles. Now I have seen everything.
