ABrooks Posted July 8, 2019 Share If you want sub-compact that is not a Glock, the S&W M&P Shield gets my vote as well. I'm considering the compact version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanievb Posted July 8, 2019 Share If you are wanting a sub-compact have a look and feel for S&W M&P Shield 9. I am biased but really like the sights on the M&P mmmmm just watched a short youtube review, seems a visit to the local club & gunshop is on the horizon. gummibear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted July 8, 2019 Share I have the CZ83, what a stunning little compact (9mm short). Quite accurate too. With it's 12+1 carrying capacity, no need to lug an extra magazine around. Easy to conceal carry also. Sadly, I think it has been discontinued a few years back. http://fromthefrontsight.blogspot.com/2013/05/review-of-cz-83.html Edited July 8, 2019 by Wannabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know they are quite scarce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSG Posted July 8, 2019 Share I have a CZ100 9mm, polymer plastic grip and bottom piece, very accurate, also 12 + 1 if I remember correctly. Small, light and easy to carry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJR Posted July 15, 2019 Share Nicest shooting bench I've used for a while! The Caldwell Lead Sled takes away the recoil and is a truly dead steady rest. Extremely useful for testing large caliber loads for accuracy where shooting plenty will hurt and stuff up your test. I also use it for setting up telescopes. gummibear and Long Wheel Base 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mon-goose Posted July 16, 2019 Share so today i buy my first rifle. Nothing fancy but i think a good starting rifle and will give me a few years practice until i buy something really nice one day. So I'm buying a remington 783 . 270 calibre Decided not to go for the 30-06 or 308 as I won't shoot much other than springbuck for now. Once I'm a lot more competent with shooting I can look at something else. But for now I'm happy. Now to start the license application process. Can't decide if should apply for the occasional hunting and sports license as I don't have a lot of preious experience to apply for the dedicated license.

I have an old Lead Sled Solo.It's nice and compact and my AR fitted nicely with the 20 round mag. Don't use it much now though as i seem to use the bipod and sandbag for the majority of shooting.

Dubbin Posted July 16, 2019 Share Quick question guys - if you wanted to sell an air rifle - .177 where and how would you go about it? I would suggest https://www.gunafrica.co.za/classifieds.html or https://www.jaracal.com/viewforum.php?f=19 Jaracal is members only, but a lot of the ads is members advertising for a friend and giving the friends contact details.

mon-goose Posted July 17, 2019 Share so i had doubts about the Remington 270 and didn't go through with the purchase. I'm worried I'm going to regret the plastic type stock. Will give it a few more days thought as I won't be able to buy another rifle for a while Also wanted to ask if there is anyone in the pe,/ despatch area who might be willing to go have a look at a secondhand rifle for me and give me their opinion. I stay in Cape town and saw a possible option there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
