    May I ask about the thumb shield/rest pls? Does it help you lock your grip on the pistol, help with pointing, or maybe some other things I cannot think of right now? Thanks!

    It mainly helps me lock in my grip and make it more consistent, but I can't help but think it also helps mitigate recoil to a degree.

    My favorite mouse gun carry. Beretta Jetfire 950 in 25acp. 8in the mag, 1 in the pipe with a spare 8rd mag. A little gun is better than none at all. Clown the 25acp all you want but there are studies out there about it’s lethality. Maybe not instant stopping power, but I reckon a 25acp thru the eye will make anything thing twice about continuing to try to kill you.

    My views on it is like comparing it to a knife in terms of employment. It’s a get off me round, not a, Ima take a defensive shot at 25m type. When I think of it that way. The little 25acp does a good job from a few feet distance. A good, deadly, create space tool.

    Anyhow, Saturday and bored.

    I carried a Beretta 950 Minx as a BUG for some years. The weapon is chambered in 22Short but there are some fairly potent 22Short offerings nowadays.
    Some carry guns are better than others. Kinda like hammers. Your toolbox has gotta have a hammer in it. Your body must have a gun on it. Your choice which offering fits you best.
    Just carry. --- SAWMAN

    Picked this dude up in December and have done a few thing to it since. Added a Zev Pro Connector, Ghost spring kit, polished the trigger bar and safety plunger, added a Glock extended slide stop, bca threaded barrel, trijicon suppressor height sights, streamlight tlr1hl, and cerakote the Taran tactical mag extensions that came with it when I bought the pistol.

    My current p320 project. Runs surprisingly well for being such a unconventional build.
