I just use a pair of Peltor Shotgunners and have never had a problem with a cheek weld, but everyone is different. For earmuffs they are pretty low profile along with being cheap, simple and will last forever.

Not a real gun, but I got an airsoft H&K USP powered by CO2 cartridges. Decent film prop if I repaint the big red HK logo on the grip, and it shoots pretty well.

I am now the proud owner of a Gen 4 Glock 19

The 915 is a great buy. How does it compare with your Model 59?

Also while Father's day is about a month away. I bought a Marlin Model 60 with laminated stock for my dad. Also covers birthday and Christmas. He already has a Model 60 but the magazine tube stopped at the stock. He had been talking about getting a new one for months.

Model 459


The 915 is a just a little more "user friendly". The sight are more visible, trigger's a bit better, it's a little lighter, and it sits slightly better in my hand.

I like the holster that came with it, too

love mine, got the vickers mag release as the gen 4 release sucks. Ameriglo sights through blue label program as the stock sights suck, and a lwd connector.

Actually I like the Gen 4 mag release over previous styles. The older style after markets make the mag release button stick out a bit too much to the point where it pokes your hand if you aren't holding it exactly the right spot.
