I am not a gun guy but I own a Beretta APX and I enjoy shooting it.
Have you considered throwing it in the trash?

Nope. I’m not a gun guy. I own one gun for home protection.

I really don’t care if it’s a top notch gun. Plus, it got good reviews.

Some good info here.  I noticed scopes cost a ton. There is a big gun show in March (no hanky is not holding a show) so it will be nice.

For those of you with a suppressor on you AR. Do you find it effective?

I’m looking to start a collection and  I need the following but when I start to Google I get overwhelmed with different manufactures, models and cost is all over.  Here is what I want.

1. AR-15 type rifle
2. Shotgun. Preferable a magazine fed 12 shell capacity type. Like the RIA VR 100
3. Long range 308 type rifle
4. Handgun.  I do have beefy hands so something big and comfy without too much recoil.

I’m aiming for about $3-5K Max for all.

Thanks.
Don't bring Shizzo into this.

I just got the primary arms platinum 1-8 optic..had one for months that I had for test an evaluation and ended up buying my own..it’s a $1500 scope(I didn’t pay full price) but even at $1500 it would’ve been the cheapest optic I’ve gotten since 2010.

Optics are expensive..but a magnified optic should always cost as much as the rifle or more

I was an agency armorer at one point where they allowed berettas..the failure rate was amazing..especially the 92f in regards to the locking block..for reference I’ve never seen a locking block failure in a sig P320 or any glock..I’d fix sometimes 20 a month in berettas

I was completely unimpressed with the 92f. For a supposed iconic pistol, it was a huge let down. Glad I borrowed it before I blew my money on one. ;D

I picked up a cheap ass $200 no brand scope that has been sodomized and has kept ticking. Gotta be better than bouncing around a 2k Trijicon.

I’ve bounced around $5500 S&Bs..the more you spend on an optic the less you nanny it because you know it can take it
