    .380 For self defense?

    My opinion/experience is that the only advantages of a 22 would be size, less recoil and less expensive ammunition. If one is concerned with recoil then they need to consider trigger pull. A 22 is going to have a heavier trigger pull because a rim fire cartridge requires a heavier strike than a...

    What .45 ACP do you conceal carry most often?

    I carry this Kimber Ultra-Carry if I know I won't be going to a gun free zone

    I scored!

    Great find, congratulations. My now deceased mother bought me a square head from a family friends military surplus store in the 70's. I doubt she paid more than a few dollars for it. It works great for steaming oysters and crabs. I cook mostly with cast iron and have a decent collection both...

    Conceal carry handguns

    These are the ones I carry. The Micro 9 has pretty much replaced the LC9S. If I know I will not be going in a Gun Free Zone I carry the Ultra Carry. If I want to just stick something in my pocket and not know it's there it's the Guardian.

    Query about a Ruger Revolver .327 Mag...

    My wife carries a LCR 327 loaded with 32 H&R magnum. The 32 H&R compares favorably to .38 spl having a little more velocity and pressure it has about the same muzzle energy. It is a pleasure to practice with 32 SW long which has less recoil than shooting .38 spl from my 605. Even though not...

    Ruger LC9s finish wiping off

    The specs say Finish: Blued. But it is not the deep blued finish of the past. It may even be a cold blued process. The finish is worn off the top side corners of slide, top of rear sites, slide lock and and safety on mine. Basically where it contacts my pocket holster.

    What is it with Gunbroker prices??? Geeez!!

    It has been my experience that even when I find a good deal nib. By the time I add 3% non-cash, shipping, and xfer fee I can get it locally for the same or less. Sometimes a little more but less hassle. I do use it for as one of my price comparisons.

    Questions about mobile carriers

    We were with Alltel before the merger with Verizon. Verizon is the most expensive but I have been in very few places where I have not had service. We live in a rural area and our home has a tin roof. My children /grandchildren have had ATT, Cricket, Sprint and T Mobile and have to go outside to...

    Make racking slide easier?

    We went through this with my wife when she was replacing her Mod 85. She wanted a lighter less recoil revolver for simplicity of operation but was willing to consider a semi auto for size and concealment. I did some research to narrow it down and spent some time in the gun stores testing slides...
