    Stoeger Couger 8000f or Rugar SR9

    For an extra $40, I'd go with the Ruger, no question. While Stoeger makes okay products, their QA is spotty, at best. I've not heard many complaints about Rugers in general, and nothing yet about the SR9. They may LOOK similar, but I doubt Stoeger has gone to any effort to research ergonomics...

    Dan Wesson Belt Buckle

    Hey, GC... ...I sent you a PM. You're correct, a lot--if not all--of the Pistol-Packs that Dan Wesson sold came with belt buckles and other trinkets. It's a shame you don't have the rest of the pack to go with that!! :D Kal

    Bored...Must Torture THR Members...

    Niiiiiice collection!! Heh, when I saw that first pile, I thought to myself, "What, is that the pile he just rolls around on?!?" Kinda like if I ever win a lottery jackpot...I want to get it all in $1 bills...just fill a room with it, and go swimming! :evil:

    Texas CHL holders, I call on you again.

    Hmmm...dunno whereabouts YOU live... ...But once I sent my paperwork in, I had my CHL in my wallet within three weeks. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I've had really great turnaround times on ALL of my governmental stuff...CHL, C&R, and some other, non-gun stuff that I've had to send away. Heck...

    Cross Draw with a large revolver...anybody do it?

    Only on duty... *grin* Well, when my duty post demands that I strap on "Da Big Iron," I carry our state-issued S&W Model 65 crossdraw (and am the only officer on our unit to do so). I get all KINDS of looks and comments about it (Hey, check out the gunslinger! You've got your pistol on...

    Just how interchangeable?

    Hi, all...did a search for this, but found nothing, so I'm asking the various and assorted assembled wizards here: How interchangeable are parts between the AK-47 and Mak-90? I find myself wanting to replace the funky, clunky, uber-chunky stock on my Mak with something a little slimmer...

    Carry without holster aka "Mexican Carry"

    I carry my Kel-Tec P11 or P40 IWB, sans holster, exclusively. I have both of them mounted with the little clip that keeps them from sinking straight into my pants, and I have yet to find a decent, comfortable holster for them that doesn't cost almost as much as the guns themselves!! I carry...

    The jobs of THR

    Hadn't seen it out there, but... ...I know I'm not the only one on the boards. I'm a Correctional Officer for the TDCJ. Or, as I prefer to put it, "Professional Screw." I get to work in scenic surroundings, among interesting people, in a fast-paced environment with unlimited...

    Quick price/value check?

    Done it! Hey, thanks for the shout, Wally! Well, I went ahead with the trade this morning...traded off my Regulator Birdshead .45, about 50 rounds, and 100 once-fired brass to a coworker and friend. In return, got the Kel-Tec (which I've shot before, and never had any mechanical problems...

    Quick price/value check?

    Hey, I'm sorry if this is the wrong venue for this, but I wasn't sure where else to put it, so... :confused: Anyway, I'm about to pick up a Kel-Tec P11, with one of the .40 conversion kits on it (if I'm not mistaken, they marketed this as the not-too-originally-named "P40?"), and I'm...

    How big is the CHL window in Texas?!?

    Okay, I'll preface this by admitting that I'm a bad, lazy boy. I went to my CHL class in August, and made it with flying colours. However, one thing after another happened, family troubles, no money, blah, blah, blah, and I'm just now getting around to sending in the packet. In January...

    WOW, now this would be soooo cool if......

    Dang...my vision must be going... ...'Cause that actually looks pretty dang cool. If I understand correctly, only the lower frame is polymer. As long as they have some metal reinforcing the lockup point at the top, I don't see why it should fail. "I have one word for you, Son..."...

    Hand over your guns (merged threads)

    Less!! THAT method requires heat...heck, I saw one the other day that was just tightly-rolled newspaper, with four safety-razor blades wedged into slits cut into the length. Handy little mace...weighed about five or six pounds. Anyone up for banning the media?!? Bliss-ninnies...:banghead:

    Rare Gun? or Why CSI is Stupid

    Ah, the *MAGIC* of Hollowood... My current fave is on the show "Numbers," when an FBI agent holds up a handful of 9mm shell casings from a crime scene, casts a knowing look at his coworker, and proclaims, "These are from a Steyr...that's a pretty rare gun. I'll bet it's our guys!" To which...

    Taking gun tips from my wife, now...!

    ...And as usual, I go off on a complete tangent... Well, I wandered down to Houston (7.5 hour drive...ugh... :( ) and got over to Collector's. Told the folks there what I was looking for, and got some help. First off, they took one look at what I was wearing, and said, "More'n likely...

    Taking gun tips from my wife, now...!

    TK-- Erg...no Maks. While they're a great little gun, and a value--or so I've heard at least--I want a nice mainstream calibre. It's not bad enough I've already got to feed for .22 LR, .38+P, .357, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .45 LC, and a handful of rifle calibres...I don't want to have to hunt down...
