“This is not a dictatorship. We are never going to use force, because we belong to the people. Moreover, the day that the people no longer want us, we shall leave. As soon as possible I will take the rifles off the streets. There are no more enemies, there is no longer anything to fight against.”

And with number 33 this episode ends the series – I’m digging around trying to come up with another series for “Friday Radio” . . .

I was going to post a pile of pics showing the “innards” of a Glock vs a Delta – then go to great lengths pontificating on the differences between them and then surmise how much better the Delta is . . .
The Delta is every bit as good ( and better in some respects ) as a Glock construction wise – and love them or hate them Glocks are the standard for striker fired pistols – but to look at a bunch of pics – side by side – hard to “see” the differences – but when you add operating ergonomics and handling ergonomics to the mix – the AREX Delta is a far better pistol . . .
All the stuff you see below comes in the box plus the owners manual – lock – and the box has a real hinge . . . If you have ever had one of the thin plastic strips some manufacturers use for a hinge break in the middle of winter in South Dakota YOU know what I’m talking about . . .
The pistol is ambidextrous out of the box – slide release and mag release work from either side – no having to switch the mag release from one side to the other – ambi slide release – I be loving it!! – it’s good to go for weak hand shooting – whether you are a lefty or a righty . . .
The trigger is real nice – as good as or better than an out of the box Glock – and the reset is hard to believe for a striker fired pistol – very short reset – some of the reviews out there comment on a “scratchy – plastic “drag” feeling up to the trigger break – that may have been an initial production issue that was resolved as I am getting none of that with this pistol – smooth up to the break – I’m getting clean / consistent breaks at just over 6 pounds.
Where the AREX Delta really shines is the handling ergos – for you righty’s out there – a place for both thumbs ( Thumbs Forward!! ) – slide and mag release have good tactile feel – easy to use . . .
And a good parking place for you trigger finger on either side . . .
And for you lefty’s – the same deal – sweet stuff!! – It shoots almost as good left handed for me as right – I just need to practice more . . . If anyone has several thousand rounds of 9mm they want to donate – LMAO!!
Got in tight with these pics so you could get an idea of the texturing and also a close look at the slide cuts . . .
The slide cuts are almost strange looking but they work really well – easy to grips bare handed and work great with gloves! – and you haven’t had real “fun” shooting until you are in the middle of white out conditions at 12 degrees in South Dakota running and gunning paper that you can barely see! . . . Would that make me hardcore or stupid or both?? Don’t answer that . . .
Ready for some boring stuff? -The stats? – ok – here some numbers and such for you . . .
Caliber 9 x 19 mm

Width 1.18 inches
Barrel length 4.0 inches

and the whole list of “stuff” . . .
Nitrocarburized stainless steel slide.

4″ Cold hammer forged barrel.
Front and rear slide serrations
Polymer frame.
Striker fired, double action trigger system.
Crisp, short reset trigger.
Low profile ambidextrous magazine release.

Four interchangeable backstraps.
One slot picatinny rail.

Trigger safety.
Striker indicator, and loaded chamber indicator.
Easy takedown, without having to pull the trigger.
One 15 round flush fit, and one 17 round extended magazine.
Compact cleaning kit.
The Delta loaded with 16 +1 with 115 grain ( can’t quite get that 17th round in the mag ) – 28.6 oz
1911 45 acp Government Model EMPTY with mag – 38.9 oz
Over 10 oz difference and the 1911 – it’s empty – the Delta is loaded . . . On board – 18 rounds / Delta vs 9 rounds / 1911 ( once the springs loosen up a bit on the Delta mags ) – 17 rounds reloads for the Delta vs 8 rounds for the 1911 . . .
Folks – I am enamored with the 1911 platform – However – I admit I am carrying the Delta – not all the time – I don’t want to go into 1911 withdrawal ! – but I am carrying it – It’s Just that Good!
The Delta is not a revolutionary design – BUT – it certainly is an evolutionary design – Recommend it?? – very simply – Yes – pick one up and you “feel” the difference – shoot several hundred rounds through it to “tune it in” – which back strap – proper grip – sight picture and you will be pleased with it . . .

An Absolute Truth . . .
Asking for a friend . . . If 1500 or so commie fucks are burning – looting – murdering one night – and every single one is butchered ( EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. ) – fed through wood chippers – then the remains burned to ashes – How many will come out to play the next night?? – just asking for a friend . . . the north Vietnamese operated on the standard of kill them all and eventually they will stop sending them – How did that practice work out for the French?? OH! They quit sending them . . .

Coming soon to a communist enclave near YOU!!
“Crime across the board is going up. We’re having a lot of problems,” Aurora City Councilman Dave Gruber said. “Aurora is open to [criminals]. … Aurora is a low-risk area and that’s a message we need to fix and we need to stop that.”
From the first nine months of 2019 to the first nine months of 2020, murders are up 72%, armed assaults are up 34.3%, and robberies were up 31%, according to an analysis of crime statistics by CBS4. At the same time, physical arrests, or arrests made without a warrant, have plummeted 44.6% since 2019.
Judy Lutkin, union president of the Aurora Police Association, blamed the high crime rates on a number of factors, including the current cultural state of the country which has emboldened criminal behavior across the U.S.

That entire area has gone to shit . . .
Years ago you would leave work at noon Friday and haul ass to Sid’s Crazy Horse Bar ( HERE or HERE or HERE ) and stagger around the area with no problems – load the car up with Coors late Saturday afternoon and nurse a hangover all the way home Saturday night – Fuck I’m getting Old! – NOW??? – I wouldn’t give you 37 cents cash for the whole state – fucking commies ruin everything!!
