  • First Shots- Glock 44X Nelson Manufacturing Optic Cut Slide

    When I heard about the Nelson Manufacturing aluminum X slides for the .22LR Glock 44, I immediately ordered one. I did not get any consideration from Nelson Precision Manufacturing, other than great service. I ordered the OEM style slide. OEM Style Slide for G44 | Nelson Precision MFG I was one day late for the

  • Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0 Compact

    When the 5″ barreled S&W M&P (semi-auto variety…I wasn’t around for the K-Frame intro) first came out, I was excited. A plastic gun with a traditional grip angle was my hope for the future as I knew that my transition away from 1911s was imminent. I was sorely disappointed. I blamed the unfamiliar trigger and

  • Sig P365 Fuse Follow Up

    Thanks to R and M for their comments, you get a follow up. I appreciate you guys so I wanted to dig a little deeper. As always, this is my take and may not reflect your experiences. I ordered an NDZ aluminum XXL backstrap and some Talon Grips Pro textured tape. I installed this on
