Good, I hope you learn and enjoy yourself. Just keep your mind on the other guys shooting too. I am sure your rifle will have a few malfunctions and thats a great way to learn how to deal with them quickly while in a more stressful situation.

Doesnt it shoot 223 NATO as well?
Ive been looking at Bushmaster reps and that gun is kind of hard to find....or I could be looking in the wrong places

5.56 NATO and .223 Remington are dimensionally identical. The difference is pressure. If you have a 5.56 chamber, you can shoot the lower pressure .223 Remington. But a .223 chamber will take a beating from 5.56 ammo.
And actually the opposite is true of .308. 308 Winchester is higher pressure than 7.62 NATO. So if you have a 308 chamber, you can shoot both.

I found it used on Auctionarms.com for $1500. I couldn't pass it up at that price.
Just look around and I'm sure you'll eventually stumble on one. Or wait for my review to make a decision.
I was between the ACR,the SCAR 16s, and initially wanted a Barrett REC7 in 5.56. It was even harder to find and I could only find them in 6.8 SPC. And the reciprocating charging handle on the SCAR 16s was a deal breaker for me.

Years ago I had an MK9 with laser grips and 6 magazines. I think I sold it for like $400 on gunbroker. I'm not sure what I was thinking.
I also had a Taurus 917 with 6 high cap mags (including 2 19 rounders). You can hate on Taurus all you want, but that thing always worked and shot really well.
Those 2 guns (plus Nibx Glock 26 I sold for $400) are my biggest selling regrets. Hopefully I've learned my lesson about selling guns.

Taurus has come a long way. Their guns are pretty good quality now.

Yeah, my brother wants me to sell him my Ruger SP101. I don't think I can do it.

Agreed. The CM9 is probably the smallest reliable 9mm out there ..
I am with you so much on this.
I wanted to try kimber solo sooooo bad but couldn't justify the extra money for it. After looking at it from a cost and reliability aspect, it was cm9, hands down.
Kimber solo was quite sexy, but this is a gun that belongs in my pocket. Not out for all to see
Furthermore, handGuns in general are made for protection , not a dog'n'pony show.

The Solo is real finicky with ammo. You can't even shoot 115 grain target rounds.

OUCH. That is brutal man. Hope you learned your lesson.
And I like Kimber Solo's looks and trigger but for a CC gun, I shouldn't have to get ammo that ONLY works for it. I should be able to get ammo that works in any other 9mm as well. That to me isn't practical, especially for over $1k.

Have to say I'm tempted to buy the Remington R51 when it's available.
I always carry IWB anyway, so if it's a bit longer that's no issue.
Not sure about Remington's ability to make handguns, but the R1 has a good track-record, right?

Well it's based on an old design that owners were a fan of. A lot of people are bashing the R51 but I happen to like what they're doing. There are hardly any new metal-framed guns coming out now. I like seeing companies do something different.
Now whether or not I will like it I have yet to determine.

Solo is finicky. I will say that hornady critical defense 115 gr works well with any pocket 9.
Posted on 1/20/14 at 4:55 pm to dstone12
Do you own the Solo?
Posted on 1/20/14 at 5:08 pm to LSUlefty
no.....meant to quotation "Solo is finicky" from previous post.

Just saw your vid on Kahr CM9 and 380. Liked it.
May you have hickock45 types of numbers/views.
What is your opinion of the P380 vs LCP?

Maybe in my wildest dreams... fingers crossed though.

No one on YouTube comes close to the amount of viewers that Hickock has. He's just a real likeable guy. I also watch Sootch00, fateofdestinee, Theyankeemarshal, and Iraqveteran8888.

I also really like Colion Noir and Nutnfancy. Well, if I want to marathon through a video I like Nutnfancy.
Posted on 1/21/14 at 8:46 am to bapple
His videos are too long.
Posted on 1/21/14 at 1:41 pm to bapple
Nutnfancy has sooooooo many haters ,but he actually made some great vids.... A lot of them. The anti glock folks can't stand him to the point of busting a vessel.
