Gun collecting

So whats the difference between the inox and blued version besides the color?

 

[darkknight]

I think stainless steel not really sure about the rest, never really checked out any other model

 

[Kross]

I like the inox version but the blue version is cheaper so i just thought the inox might be different

 

[darkknight]

I was told that the inox was a bit harder to maintain from a gun shop owner. I also was told by another that stainless steel is also harder to maintain vs blued when I was buying my 1911 pistol. Maybe someone here with experience in both can chime in.

I myself would get the regular 92fs, I guess it's preference.

 

[Kross]

Yeah that what thinking about doing getting the regually 92fs

I'm thinking about ordering a Remington 700 SPS tactical and putting a Vortex Viper 4-12x40 on it.

What say you?? Yay or Nay??

I collect airsoft guns, especially ones mostly used in movies/video games. Some people ask why don't I just buy real guns. Well since I like all the famous models and not variations of those models, real guns of the following will cost me upwards of $250k (for example, a SR25 cost about 7k, a HK416 around 3k, and 1911s around 1k each). Airsoft is the much cheaper option

I just got into Hot Toys, so I am letting some of my collection go, but I am definitely keeping all the sweet ones-

Enjoy the photos!

Did my first bit of browsing for a sniper rifle and assault rifle at a gun show this weekend. All of my previous trips had been for handguns, so I never looked much at either. I think a good customized AR-15 or similar rifle may be my next purchase.

I liked the HK416 ... but it was really expensive, and I'm not even sure if a semi-auto version exists (I didn't bother asking). Any brand recommendations? I've heard Stag Arms and Knights Armament are good ... but that's just hearsay.

Looking for something with quad rails ... not sure whether to go with the .308, 30-06 or 5.56 NATO caliber. Get a good enough scope and a bipod, and I might be able to use it for sniping practice anyway. I don't think I want an AK or anything in the 7.62 round at the moment. The AR15 models have some cool gizmos -- really liked the foregrips and holographic sights. Never messed with holographic sights before ... quite impressive.

They are on somewhat the two ends of the spectrum; KAC is about as good as it gets, while Stag is a somewhat more lower end brand. For the price you would pay for Stag, etc; you would be better off with either a Daniel Defense or BCM (Bravo Company). With Bravo Company specifically you can essentially customize your upper, or maybe in your case keep it basic until you really know what you want. That way all you would need to do it purchase an assembled lower, or BCM sells complete lowers as well.

HK MR556, I want one
Or if you want a 7.62/.308 there is the new MR762

 

[915stag51]

if you got the cash just get a Scar 16s or a Heavy, you wont go wrong with either one

Does anybody know if the Beretta 92fs 9mm is a good gun

i just picked up the M9 today.

 

[darkknight]

Anyone ever heard or used Frog Lube for their firearms?

 

[jonny88]

i just picked up the M9 today.

you are lucky, l am pissed l can't get one of those M9's with out a big headache. Not to mention only being able to shoot one at a shooting range. Here in Canada handguns are restricted.

I like these pistols a lot. Very nice purchase!

I use it for all of my hand guns. Works pretty well, and it's pretty easy to maintain. Once you do the break-in coat and get a couple cycles throughout it cleaning is a breeze. I just wipe mine off with those microfiber towels that are for car detailing. Use some of the liquid lube for cleaning out barrels and it's easy-breezy.

Good to hear, I just purchased the kit with the liquid bottle and paste bottle with brush and microfiber towel.

Do you heat up the metal parts with a hairdrier before applying or do you just apply it?
