I do not believe full size handguns offer a significant advantage over smaller guns. When I turned 21, I was ready with my CZ P-09 and holster to carry because I thought that if I was going to carry a gun, I wasn't going to compromise on size. That idea lasted for a few months until I realized...

Yeah, it's been a while since I've been here. I've spent too much time in the internet's more unsavory places. But part of the reason I switched away from carrying cocked and unlocked like that was the peer pressure from people who treated me like I was being the most unsafe guy in the world.

I've got plenty of experience on all of the trigger types and in my experience, DA/SA requires the most effort to learn. Mostly due to the initial double action pull rather than the transition between the first and subsequent SA pulls. The hardest part about learning to properly shoot a DA/SA...

What happens to the gun you used to shoot a person in self defense? I have heard everything from you get it back and go home 30 minutes after the police show up to the police take it away forever. My understanding is the police will keep your gun only if you are being charged with a crime in...

Yeah, I may be jumping the gun on this, and to be honest, I still want the R51. It's just that the pistol is a few weeks away from being released and the specs are changing. I can't help but be a little skeptical.

I can overlook the larger dimensions than previously stated. The machine marks inside the slide aren't too big of a deal. I can wait to make sure it is reliable. Now I find out the trigger is hinged and not straight back? Are we going to find out its not true single action, too? This...

Steyr 1912 Savage 1908 FN 1922

CZ P09 Duty. Never worry about not having enough ammo.

Allrighty. I've seen Dan Wesson 1911s and those have bare slides. Thank you.

Recently, the idea of eventually obtaining a custom engraved 1911 has crossed my mind. However, I do not know how engraving would be done over a roll mark. Do I have to buy a 1911 that regularly comes with a naked slide or can I get any 1911 custom ordered with a naked slide? Or is the roll...

Definitely reliability. I was looking at getting a Steyr 9mm pistol. It had everything I wanted: Low bore axis, good trigger, felt great, pointed well, had a rail for a light, had night sights available. But after a little research, I saw they had extraction problems and it was immediately...

They said that I can return them for evaluation and they will be replaced if the rims are failing.

Almost all of my guns can't really be customized. I changed the grips on my S&W Model 10, but no internal work. I just use my desire for a longer slide release, larger grip, and such as an excuse to buy a new gun.

I found that on their website, so I should be good if all I was doing was dry firing with them.

I just sent a ticket, I will post again when I get a response back from A-Zoom. This OP will deliver.
