Got my new S&W FPC

Shipwreck said:

I saw this at the gun store yesterday. They just got them in yesterday morning. Managed to snag one Now, I am waiting for the optic I ordered to come in. I watched a Youtube video to show me how t take it apart. It's not too hard, but it's a bit different. Once I get the optic, I get to shoot it. I watched a video review last night on Youtube. Guy shot about a 1" group at 50 yards. That's much better than the 2-3" average that the Beretta CX4 shoots. So, I can't wait to try it.

My Beretta will shoot one hole groups at 50 yards. Can't speak for others, but I'll be keeping mine.

I am sorry that you are having neck/spine issues.
My inversion table saved me!

It is ridiculous how much a 5" long rail riser costs....

What would you need it for?
You’ve got a big Israeli optic coming?

I already have it. I mentioned it above. They took their time shipping, but it shipped from Texas (not far from me). So, I got it next day. Came in yesterday.

With my neck issues, the optic sits a little low for me, when I put my cheek against the stock.

The rails on my two CX4 carbines sit up about 1/2 an inch higher on the gun than this S&W. I need that extra 1/2 inch or I cannot shoot the gun.

So, gonna have to wait 1 more week to go shoot, until that riser comes in, unfortunately.

This is my 8th Mepro 21 (I thought it was #7, but I found an old post about my previous one). Never had this issue before. The rail on the S&W is just a tad lower it seems.

Oh brother, I feel your pain! I’ve got bulging and ruptured disc up and down. The VA ain’t much keen on fixing it (can’t blame em). I only have cervical arthritis in my neck that can produce the most lovely of headaches.
Thankfully I have a most excellent chiropractor to help keep things in balance.
Best wishes for the modification you require.
I can’t wait to see upcoming videos and pictures!
