HFC M9 SPECIAL FORCES ADDITION

[Colonel]

best bet is to get a Beretta F92S or M9, find a nice extra long (about 1 inch longer) 6.04 or 6.05mm barrel for it, and learn how to shoot with it.

no need, western arms .45 kimber lapd swat model. 6.03 inner barrel stock. tops out at 360+ with green gas. with a laser, very accurate, 22 round mag. who needs a dumb ass 9mm l

[Colonel]

okay, i want to see you hit something at 360 fps with a short barrel. high velocity + short barrel = zero accuracy. not to mention WA is 2.5 times the price of a TM. and we know the M9 is a very reliable pistol.

[Doc]

yeah, but its a 6.03, and i may get a suppressor and a longer 6.03 for it

Ok so I know this is an old thread. Hell,it’s old anywhere you go. And I’ve done some poking around the good ‘ol web about HFC in general. It’s a mixed bag of moans, groans, bitches, praises, etc that its so hard to tell wtf this HFC is all about. So I bought one for about $80 or so shipped just to see for myself. Right out of the box I spotted a problem: the f’n front sights were missing!!! I emailed the vendor right away and they gave me a choice. I could send it back for a replacement or they would sell me another one at cost with no shipping charges and they would send it out immediately. I opted to fork out the price at cost for a second one (spare parts and an extra mag?) BUT I asked to kindly inspect it before it was shipped.

While I wait for the second to arrive, and I still am, I’ve gone through about 500 rounds on the gun I have, and well, so far so good. I took it apart, checked is all out, and everything seemed to be just fine. I wasn’t really paying attention to accuracy, nor did I bother to chrono it, because all I wanted to do is get through 500 rounds as fast as I can to see if anything would go omgwtfhappened. Gonna get more gas this weekend at the Rt. 18 Flea market and burn through the bb’s I have left over (about 1000 left) this weekend, and I’ll let ya know what happened.

OK so now I will have 2 identical M9’s, one missing the front sights cos it’s a freaking separate little piece. Cruising ebay, I found an HFC upgrade kit for M9’s that comes with a new receiver, longer barrel, spring, and what looks like a recoil compensator. I’ll have it some time next week and, if I have time, I’ll run it through more accurate testing and have a small report on it.

Home depot has better gas and cheaper.. we all use pro-pain in our guns

Problem with propane: my adapter hasn't arrived yet

Just an update on my M9. I've gone through a whole 2000 rounds this weekend and it still shoots. One thing: it's a gas hog. The manual says it will hold 25 rounds, but you will run out of gas between 17th-19th round. So I load it with about 15 rounds. I can't give a proper accuracy report because IT HAS NO FRONT SIGHTS. . I'm still waiting for it in the mail.

ur holding the mag upside down when ur adding gas right?

[sundown]

Yes I am. I also let it warm up a bit after I think I gave it enough squirts, usually 3 to 4.

i fill it up till gas seeps out of the top
