Bianchi green nylon POS holster: “Hold my beer.”At least it's not a SERPA model.

Ah the old level 0 retention option.Bianchi green nylon POS holster: “Hold my beer.”
That holster was about as good as having a borrowed pistol in my pocket of my Cbt Shirt.Bianchi green nylon POS holster: “Hold my beer.”
I liked that you can just pull it out from the back with the flap closed. That’s pretty neat.I think it was actually a Level -1 retention because the holster would actively try to drop your pistol on the ground.
Hence, the lanyard loop. At least you'll feel it dragging behind you.I think it was actually a Level -1 retention because the holster would actively try to drop your pistol on the ground.
That stops you from throwing it at the target when it inevitably jams though.Hence, the lanyard loop. At least you'll feel it dragging behind you.
Or *retrieving it and trying again if you miss on the first throw…That stops you from throwing it at the target when it inevitably jams though.
It appears that the slide is our of battery and the barrel is missing.Actually in unit. I for one am shocked.
Just catching up. You are, of course, correct. The M9 is dimensionally different enough from the BHP to cause the holster to be wholly unsuitable unless you were standing very still.It was for the M9 not 1911
It was a massive mistake to acquire that holster and the fact they figured it fits an M9, it should fit the Inglis No2 Mk1* was just ineptitude.

You need to stage your photos better.Well yes the slide isn’t going to stay in battery without the barrel in, barrels stored separately because CAF rules of course.
OK question - will the continued rules contribute to the wear and tear of the pistol - continual assembly and disassembly to store IAW the rules?Well yes the slide isn’t going to stay in battery without the barrel in, barrels stored separately because CAF rules of course.

I can say for certainty we overcleaned the FNC1A1 - the whole spotless weapon thing reduced their life IMO.
The Army spends so little effort on proper, quality pistol training, that this shouldn't be an issue.Due to the nature of the Sig striker mechanism however, dry training will need to be monitored and wear tracked beyond just a round count.
You're aware that the buy had already been made, right?Well, 2 years later, I can say that I like the opinions here, but from these year's choices, I will choose the Girsan MC 14T.
Girsan MC 14T has a distinct feature we rarely see in handguns: a “tip-up” loading barrel. While others have used this style before, the MC 14T is currently the only tip-up .380 on the market.
To load the MC 14T, you activate the release level on the right side, which causes the barrel to tip up, and then you can insert a round. Once loaded, you insert the magazine, giving you the plus-one capacity. The pistol can be cleared by dropping the magazine, tipping up the barrel, and removing the round. With fewer moving parts, it can be easier to manipulate for some.
If it is a tip up system like the Beretta .380’s you can also cycle the slide. But .380 is not a duty cartridge and most of those guns recoil worse than 9mm duty guns due to their action being basically straight blow back, and not a tilting barrel linkage.You're aware that the buy had already been made, right?
I can see a significant training bill with the MC 14T, notably when it comes to stoppage clearances and one handed manipulation with gloves.
