Mine was a Walther P99 QA until I dropped it two nights ago and broke the rear sight detent. Oh well, gives me time to find a better holster and belt while it's being repaired.

Her gun almost looks like a COP derringer.

Happy ending This story has a happy ending. I received a letter from the court clerk today to let me know my permit is waiting for me. Now I just need to go get it. Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Chris

I applied for a CHP in Northampton county on April 18. I called the clerk of the court right around a week ago to see what was going on, and I was told that my fingerprints hadn't come back from the State Police yet. Seeing as how I'm employed by a local law enforcement agency, I wouldn't think...

I seem to remember seeing The Phantom using a 1911 in most of the pictures I saw. The British counterpart to Captain America, Union Jack carried a Webley revolver and a knife.

Walther P99's are pretty thin, with the overall width being just over an 1". Not bad for a 15 round 9mm.

Call me crazy, but I think Kimber imported the Daewoo's at one point. I seem to remember a forum member directing someone else to Kimber for spare parts. I've handled a couple at gun shows, in the past year or so, and was impressed with the quality. I'd love to get a chance to shoot one...

Like a long slide .45. Why is it they have long slide pistols in 9mm and .40/.357, but none in .45. I'm not much of a Glock fan, but it seems to me they would market well to the competition and SWAT crowd. Chris

Oh dang..just might have to get one of those

So the Sig 228, which is know as an M11 in the Army, is a military handgun that uses an 11 millimeter bullet? Interesting use of that word

Gewehr98, You wouldn't happen to have a parts list laying around for that SKS would you? I've been interested in building something similar ever since I saw that pic. Chris

The trigger takes a little getting used to. It's kind of like the Glock and XD triggers, in that it has to be cocked first before it will fire. Retracting the slide a 1/4" of an inch is enough to accomplish this. I think the pull is mentioned as being around 7lbs on the Walther website, but I'm...

I own a Walther P99 with the QA, and I must admit that the trigger on the XD that I've fired was much lighter and smoother. Also, the XD seemed to have a little less "snap" compared to the Walther, although that is something that is easily taken care of with practice. Admittedly, the XD sub...

A buddy of mine just got a Mod 67 and we're having the hardest time trying to get it disassembled. For some reason we can't work the slide, and I can't get the pivot pin for the trigger group out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Chris

I must admit I've never fired one of the 9000's, but I've handled a bunch at gun shows. The grip feels, and is very fat. But it doesn't seem to prevent me from getting a good pull on the trigger. However, the safety has been so stiff on every sample that I've handled, that I was afraid I would...
