Nzoner's Game Room>Off Season Lets Talk Guns, Part 2
HonestChieffan 11:58 AM 01-23-2011
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.


Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon?



Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware?

Very nice.

Are those the grips that came with it, or something you added yourself?

After market. I have smaller hands for a dude and it wasn't the most comfortable thing to mag swap without a thumb notch.

They're really nice. I got some new black G10 grips with the thumb notch for my STX. The wood grips that came with it are really nice looking, but not very practical.

Damn that's not hand loading more like production.

And he doesn't own a .243.

Also.... ouch!
No shit... I could end ISIS for less coin than a few trips to the range!

Pretty much. Originally it had a hand lever - he added the drive system and tablet a few months ago.

Kind of makes you wonder if he actually took the shot or not. :-)

I bought this Colt lightweight commander. The magazine is supposed to hold eight rounds. It does hold eight rounds of Hornady critical defense 185 grain. I can not fit the eighth round into the magazine using Hornady critical duty 220 grain +p or any 220 grain FMJ.

Why?

It's possible that the magazine just needs to be broken in a bit. I know that can happen on occasion. You might want to try to find a Colt or 1911 specific forum and ask around there.

Or, you might consider getting better magazines. I only use these for my 1911s.

I have two Chip McCormick mags and another Colt coming. All eight rounders. Is it not weird that the 220 grain rounds won't fit? The rounds are the same size as the 185 grain aren't they?

I've never had problems with Chip McCormick or Wilson Combat 1911 mags.

Like Frazod said, it probably needs to be broken in.

It does seem strange. Do you have a micrometer? Maybe there is enough of a difference in size that can't be seen with the naked eye.

Also have you tried them in other magazines?

And Chip McCormick mags are a good choice as well. :-)

No meter. There must be just enough of a size difference.

Waiting on the mags to come in. I might call Colt tomorrow and ask them.

Not starting off good with this gun. Hopefully it's just a junk mag.
