Gun and gear reviews Great day for the pits

Post image

Got out to the pits again, I have to say that so far, im very impressed with the homesteader. Using a mix of on sale 9mm from basspro but mainly pmc bronze 115 and 124 grain. Using oem glock mags.

Im a little over 1k rounds and not a single fail to feed, fail to fire or extract. Its been a solid 9.5/10 experience so far.

Only issue over had is a small set screw for holding the rear peep hole sight fell out, Henry shipped me a new one within 3 hours of emailing them. No cost and expedited shipping.

Add in the Neuman metalworks handguard that I tossed on last night, and its a blast. If you're on the fence about getting one, get it. Its a ton of fun to shoot.

Nice. Great rifle indeed. PMC ammo works great here also in both OEM glock and Magpul mags. Iron sites are decent but I’m considering a red dot.

Cant go wrong with a red dot. Im going to be getting a 1 - 8 lpvo for my renegade most likely, so the RT6 currently on the renegade will get swapped over im thinking.
