I got this about a year ago.



Then I had to wait 10 months for paper work so I could put this on it and get rid of the stupid arm brace.



That way if I need to make it smaller and more compact I can make it do this.



And if I need to be super quiet so no one knows what is going on I can put this on it.

I need one of those to go with my Glock fun stick. Damn they're proud of 'em though.

I never liked the Vector, but i got to respect what goes into it and how it works.
And i am sure if i got to put a few mags thru one my take on it would change.

At the price point, I'd likely go 9mm AR since I've sort of standardized on the platform, or CZ Scorpion. But I already have an 8.5" in .300BLK, and with subs it's equivalent to a .45ACPC. But that Vector is cool as shit nonetheless.

I really want a 9mm to go along with my M&P15-22 and my .223/5.56 AR, but I just don't understand why 9mm ARs are so much more expensive to build.

Supply and demand, mainly demand.

I think eventually I'm going to end up with one of those Hi Point 9mm carbines in lieu of a 9mm AR platform. From everything I've read and seen they seem like cheap, reliable, ugly fun.


Meanwhile I'm still deciding on my first 1911, which will be my next purchase.

Hi Point? Ehhh. Kel-Tec makes some cool 9mm carbines.

What's your 1911 budget?

Yea but the last time I checked on a 2000 they were around $500. I can get a HP locally for about $300. From what I've read I don't see a lot of difference except the price. For 200 bux less I'd probably go with the HP, but that's nothing that's in the near future anyway.


As for the 1911 I'd like to stay as inexpensive as possible. I'd like to have a Commander sized gun with a BT, extended safety and actual sights. I've been eyeballing this for a couple months...

Haven't pulled the trigger yet because I've been waiting to see if anything better might come along, but there doesn't seem to be the massive drops in prices with 1911's like there has been with plastic pistols and AR's.

The reputation of Hi Point scares me.

That's a nice gun. 1911s have lots of parts and are almost all metal so they're expensive to manufacture.

I love my Rock Island but it's full size.

Ruger makes a sweet commander around that price range. I've read a lot of good about Para though.

It's all relative. My Rock Island 1911 just raised it's hand and said it can do all 3 simultaneously.

Yes, and neither of those are cheap. The Citadel is close to $600, and the cheapest RRA offering is substantially more. I'm talking cheap, Jensen, Lorcin, Highpoint, etc. The level of quality on the ones I've helped friends with is atrocious. But, I have friends who are notoriously cheap for some things, then regret it later.
