That vest is pretty badass, I got a Radom P-64, its a 9mm mak,It was a Polish police officers side arm. Made in 1977.
It had become my new conceal carry piece.
I replaced the firing spring with a heavier duty spring (to compensate for modern ammo) and lighter trigger spring, the DA pull was a beast before..
(Not Mine)
Mine is exactlly the same, except I have custom grips with finger grooves cut out, and is Walnut, stained grey. I will post pics of it soon.

Yup, I rock a G23 as my daily carry. WAY more punch than a baby 9milli but doesnt want to jump out of your hands like that .45 ACP.

Ill post pix later. Its def a baller 40 cal. Factory G night sights, laser dot setup. Magpul offers extended clips too, I think the count is 17+1 chambered. I just have 4 stockers at 13+1. Def get a box of GOOD personal defense ammo for your daily carry clip. You want to make sure you dont just punch holes, but those JHP bullets fragment inside and bounce off bone. A surgeon could NEVER fix the damage that good bullets cause. Ever.

i was actually going to get a G23 originally because its in between a 9mm and 45. but ammo is expensive compared to 9mm. imo its all about hit placement and knowing your gun. if you dont know how to shoot it or even aim correctly then there's no point. post some photos of it though. im thinking about getting night sights myself. dont know which brand to get though.

Hmm.. not sure about your comment.
a) Money ain't a thing. I make bank. If your worried about the cost of ammo, you should get into a different sport. Personal Protection bullets (mine) will cost $30 for a box of just 20 bullets. I NEVER shoot junk reloads, and usually only fire the 180grains down my Glock.
b) I can outshoot most people. I grew up with guns at the age of 6. Dropped a deer with a .223 Winchester varmit rifle (think groundhoug) at over 250yards open sights.. (no scope) at the age of 12.. Its just gotten better from there with more expensive equipment.
c) Id really hate to be the dumb-a_s_s on the other side of my G23, at 25 yards I am smacking a 3" group all day long. My 2 friends and I play a game - eyes, mouth, neck, heart, center ribcage, nutshot. I can blast through clips in less than 10 seconds and double punch every "vital" area we go for.
My other friend is the head security detail at a nuclear plant here in PA, and is even better than I. He uses the 9milli for work, and the 45acp for fun.
d) I hit the range up atleast every 3 weeks, and have competed in tournaments.
Ill post pics of my gun tonight, but here is me at work son.

Torque you have a very impressive set up and a nice write up. I like when someone knows what they're talking about. Thumbs up.

Nice. Your dad is rocking the Sean Connery look.

I had a really hard time with pistols when I first started shooting. Couldn't hit nothing. Of course, over time I got to where I could hit anything, even from the hip, because you get used to shooting.

So I got my first rifle. I'm thinking it will be a bit easier. Again, couldn't hit nothing. I was ____ed. The lady in the stall next to me must have felt sorry for me, so she took a look at my target, and suggested I try shooting left handed. Suddenly I was a dead eye.

Go figure... right handed all my life, but I'm left eyed. So now I can shoot equally well with each hand for pistols. I've don't shoot rifles much, because I'm tired of spent casing marks on my face.

Torque - haha thanks I think! Most of the boys I've dated / am dating think chicks with guns are scary which kinda sucks because I try to get to the range weekly and I'd rather not go by myself. Too bad you're so far away indeed!

13edge you should see my dad when I was growing up. I'll find my favorite picture of him and put it on here, nobody wanted to date me because they were afraid of daddy.

Picked up that Sako that I was wanting. So far it's a nice jump up from the Savage and Rem that I have experience. This rife is smooth.

Just cut the foam last weekend
