Default New Guy & Mono

Hi, Hello, How ya' doin'. Some of you may know me already, some may not. I'm Cody, I just picked up my first Baer a couple weeks ago, and I couldn't be more in love with this thing. I did have to wait longer than any one person should for a gun, but hot-diggity-damn was it worth it. She has run flawlessly now for the first 400 rounds, I don't foresee that changing for any reason. Both supplied mags have essentially worked fine so far, but feel like some real cheap steaming piles of crap. I use Tripp Research Cobra Mags exclusively. I had wanted this gun for a looooooong time, saved up almost as long, then waited for ever after that, only to be completely and totally impressed by how solid and beautifully this thing is put together. Accuracy is without mention. I know Baers are known for it, and this one is accurate for a Baer. Here's the build specs.

Heavyweight Monolith
.38 Super
1.5" option
Short match trigger
30 lpi. front strap
25 lpi mainspring housing w/ Magwell
No Roll Marks
Front Serrations
Single sided safety







----------------------- The first 200 rounds - 7 & 10 yards------------------------



Soooo, that just about does it. If you've never owned a Baer....do! It's worth every single penny. If you've never owned a Monolith....do! It's just plain badass.

Thanx , I think you're right, I will enjoy it. Except, I noticed some threads are really,really,really old. It seems like sometimes there's a few rooms the don't get exercised very often.

Thats what your mission is bro, wake up the LB section. You and Monkey boy can keep that section up to date.

It's such a peach, it's the only caliber I've ever owned. My grandfather gave me a Colt 25years ago, and since then, the only thing I shoot.

I didn't know you only shoot .38 Super, Cody. Live and learn.

That looks to be factory ammo in your picture. Do you reload too? What's your go to factory ammo and where do you pick it up? Curious since I just purchased a DW Guardian in .38 Super. Yup, I finally made the plunge.
