    I'm thinking of selling my CZ 75 to fund a BHP- talk me in or out of it.

    I own a Browning Hi-power Practical, and it is now my favorite handgun. I traded a Springer 1911 and a Smith 340PD for it. I should mention it came customized with an Bar-Sto barrel and a C&S trigger job done to it. It fits my hand perfectly, it is accurate, and it looks good. Get the...

    Anyone carry just a J-Frame, no speed loaders/strips?

    I carry my 340PD in A paddle holster (all the time) with no reloads on me (most of the time). I have brought 5 more rounds in my pants pocket before. But for the most part 5 rounds of .357 Mag is all I have.

    man i fell in love

    I own a Smith 340PD (.357 Mag spurless, 2-1/4" bar.). Its perfect for CC. Its light, small, and reliable. As far as shooting goes....... I have shot both .38+P and .357 mag in it and I'll be sticking with the .38 for any range time with it.
