FTH 212 week 4 Frame Modification
Week 4 was all about frame modification. For this week's assignment we had practice stipple sheets to draw a pattern on, create a border, sand and stipple. After working on the practice sheets, we had to stipple a pattern on the PSA Dagger that was sent to us or any frame that can be worked on. It took me awhile to get the hang of recessed borders and I still have more to put more time in to get better. After some practice with the borders, I gained the confidence to stipple my Dagger frame. I close out by speaking on the processes to get through the assignment.

Bro-time Toy Fun
In this video my VA Day 1 brotha was in town and this is his first time seeing the Prodigy, Rival S, Platypus, and Macro. I also shot the PSA Dagger build for the first time and had a recurring issue with the AMEND 2 aftermarket Glock magazines. These are all guns he has been looking forward to getting his hands on and its great when your family can enjoy your toys. SHARING IS CARING.

FTH 212 week 2 PSA Dagger Experience
In this week's assignment we go over the experience of assembling the PSA Dagger. I also demonstrate how to measure the barrel length of the Dagger. In closing I articulate the difference of measuring the barrel twist of a barrel that is not long enough to complete a full rotation.

PSA Dagger Assembly Walkthrough - Step By Step Tutorial
In the second week of the Striker-Fired pistol class the assignment is to complete a full assembly of Palmetto State Armory Dagger. This kit was sent with everything needing to be assembled, even things I have never done like putting the spring on the slide stop, the spring on the recoil assembly, and even the thin piece of metal in the backplate. This entire gun and every part needed to be assembled, and it was a fun experience. I have built a couple P80s and this Dagger was different.

FTH 202 week 4 assignment
This week's assignment was about tuning the trigger of the Taurus 856 revolver. We started with a trigger pull with a gauge to get an average trigger pull weight. Then we had to disassemble the firearm, use Dykem layout fluid to mark the action parts of the firearm, reassemble the firearm, work the action to find the high points, then polish and sand them. Then I had to reassemble the firearm gauge the trigger pull again, then changed the hammer and trigger springs and did one final trigger gauge. This assignment ended with me demonstrating how to use the go no-go gauges to measure the cylinder gap of the firearm.

HOW TO make any Glock or P80 TRIGGER run SMOOTH
In this video, I show how to make a Glock or Polymer 80 trigger run smoother. I pull out the Dremel, Mother's polish and Flitz polish to give the trigger bar and connector a mirror shine. I am performing this task on a Gen 5 Glock 19.

Glock Sight Swap
In this video I pull out the good ol' VISM sight pushing tool to finally change the sights on this well finished Gen 5 Glock 19, the most popular handgun in the world. I love everything about the look of this gun other than the sights, so I got some @TrijiconInc night sights. I may do a trigger swap some day but for now these sights will do.

FIRST SHOTS....Taurus 856...is this NORMAL???
I have shown the unboxing of the Taurus 856, I have done school assignments with the 856, I have fully disassembled and reassembled the 856. I have done everything but shoot the 856. In this video I take it to the range and go through 4 cylinders of Aguila 125 grain .38 Special +P jacketed hollow point bullets. I would prefer to have training ammo that is not +P due to the cost but this was all I could get. I did not expect shooting a snub nose revolver would be so fun.

p365 X Macro Comp...the MOST fitting EDC?
Its weird that the gun I carry the most is probably the gun I shoot the least. That is because I am usually using one of my "fancier" or more expensive guns. Even though I do not shoot this gun as often, my first shot shows that the muscle memory is there. My favorite guns may not be my carry gun but I can tell you, this Sig Sauer p365 X Macro is by far my favorite EDC in the 4 years I have been carrying. Let me know your favorite carry gun in the comments.

OMG Stealth Arms Platypus
In this episode I take the Stealth Arms Platypus out to put a few mags through it. It still shows some issues locking back after the last round with OEM Glock magazines, but in this video I put 4 mags through and it did lock back on 3 of the 4 mags so I will take that for now.

PBD Podcast..who are the 5%.....MEGA REACTION
https://www.youtube.com/live/Fn_B4lUCGGc?si=BrLnMQdv2CdTT1WFp
The part I react to starts around the 1:33:00 minute mark
This my first #reaction video. In this video I am reacting to a segment of the #pbdpodcast PBD Podcast that aired Tuesday February 6, 2024. They showed a clip of a woman talking about who runs the world in percentages based on the population. What is overlooked is the fact that the 5% Nation was established in 1964 but I guess this is unknown information to the cast.
I have been asked to do reaction videos for awhile and I still have some changes I need to make before they will be produced to my standards.

12 Gauges
In this video I show some appreciation of the 2 guns that I own that do not get enough use as they deserve. I do not get the chance to enjoy my shotguns as much as I would like to but I cannot let that stop me from talking about them.
