Yep, absolutely!! It is so different for me that it gives me a false sense that I'm better than I am. Guns that are comped shoot way flatter and help you stay on target for follow up shots and its like night and day between comp and no comp. I am in no means a pro and I only have 1 gun that has a compensator but have shot many. With that being said, my Canik TTI Combat is an extremely fun gun to shoot and is definitely a more fun gun to shoot than any other non comped gun I own. YMMV

There is a reason why they were created and they sell tons of aftermarket ones. I’ve watched many reviews and videos on comps and ports on the 364 platform and the people love them. The sig Axg legion with the comp gets phenomenal reviews.

Love my Hellcat Pro. The Comp is definitely enticing though!

Love my Hellcat, also. Just need a more comfortable IWB holster, and a pocket holster, for it.

I still keep thinking about getting another 9mm 1911, since I haven't figured out why my current one keeps having ejection issues. Maybe instead of buying another (can you really have too many 1911s?) I'll try to find a reputable gunsmith that can take a look at my current one.

I”ve become a fan of “We The People Holsters” personally. When I carry my Hellcat i carry appendix for the most part with a claw and it’s super comfortable,relatively, for me. As far as your 1911 issue,……. Fuck it , just buy another one! Kind of like when my SxS needed an oil change, brought it in , left with a brand new one. Problem solved!!!

Gen6 Glock 45 is next. I’m on the waiting list at the only blue label dealer in town.

So, I don’t really need my Gen5 45. My gun club will run superbowl like boards for guns people are selling. This one was $5 a square and you can buy squares for your own gun, I bought 3. Well, I won my own gun back. $485 and since I don’t really want the gun anymore, I’m going to run it again. This is fun.

Just bought probably only gun this year. Last week i Picked up a Marlin Mountie .22 made in 1969. Still haven't got to shoot it yet with all this nasty weather. Maybe later next week. Have to get the wife to take a pic of it since i don't do the cell phone thing.

More ammo.

Ran a board and sold my Gen5 G45 so need to replace it with a G6 for GSSF this year. Just waiting for my local blue label dealer to get it in.

That’s about it.

It's a shame that we can't freely talk about things we would like to buy on a gun form anymore knowing that this forum is spied on by agents of the government.

A new House in Alabama.

Do tell ....

Curious about your plan.

I thought you had some reason you were staying in NY?

Where in Alabama?

What specifically about Alabama is the reason you are. Choosing it?

(Just curious because I spent a hot minute looking into Al, and the northern area around Huntsville seems like it's pretty great, and the area way down by the gulf seems nice too. I thought I saw Alabama had really favorable and generous taxes and retirement laws for a low cost of living. (Obviously it's very conservative and gun friendly).

Side note, I had a room mate that was from Alabama. Super fun dude, kinda made me re think the whole AL stereotypes.

There are no laws against talking about guns you want to buy. I would like to buy a ZSU 23-4, although, the tax stamps would probably be cheaper than 100 rounds of ammo. Having 4 23mm automatic cannons mounted on tracks in my back yard would be fun.

Well, in that case I would like a Dillon Aero, but it has to be mounted on a retired and refitted Marine Super Cobra.

I had no idea that my first edition Sigma was a sought-after collectible. Maybe somebody here wants to give me 2k for it or do an even trade for a CZ Shadow 2?

What's everyone looking forward to buying this year? I hope some cool things come out at Shot Show this year that aren't just vaporware!

I saw somewhere that Ruger removed the gunsite scout rifles from their website and may be getting replaced by an American Gen II scout model. Crossing fingers.

A new 22 target pistol from Tippmann or a bolt action 22 from Bergara. And a good affordable thermal scope. Too much vaporware at SHOT Show every year.

I picked up a Mossberg MVP LR in 7.62x51 put an OA defense 2311 (think 2011 that takes Sig P320 mags) on layaway. It is about 800 bucks cheaper than the Sig 211 and about the same price as the Kimber 2K11.

I should have it paid off by the end of the summer. Have to figure out which type of gun (1911, Poly 80, or AR15) I am going to make for a Christmas or New Year’s Day gun.

I like to he 2311 series of pistols. I can’t wait for the review. I’d like one someday.
