    S&W Bodyguard 380-remove safety lever

    Anybody know how to remove external safety lever on S&W BG 380 ACP? S&W makes special model for LAPD only w/o manual safety, but it is only available to LAPD cops. I like this gun but hate the manual safety. Tried to search you tube for video with no luck. Found crapload of you tube videos for...

    S&W Bodyguard 380 w/o laser

    S&W B.G w/o insight laser= $350 MSRP?? Ruger LCP w/o laser=$373 MSRP If I was a consumer I would go for the B.G w/o laser for less $$. At least BG has last round slide hold open feature, usable 3-dot iron sights, and manual safety (should you choose to use it). Absolutely a win for S&W if they...

    S&W Bodyguard 380 w/o laser

    If S&W came out with a Bodyguard 380 acp minus the integral laser, they would probably take a nice market share away from keltec P3AT and ruger LCP. The price of the bodyguard less laser would probably bring the price down to a price point in line w/ P3AT and LCP. I know I would buy one if it...

    PM9 + Golden Sabers = Fail --- Please Help

    Got both PF9 and a PM9. I run ball 115 FMJ any brass case brand at range for plinking, no problems. For JHP, I use Speer GDHP 124 and Federal 9bple 115 JHP all day w/ no problems. My PM9 is one of the older ones that are still covered under warranty for life (new Kahrs only warranty for 5 years).

    Glock 23 gen 4 $350?

    That is a smokin deal. I just got a NIB G-19 Gen.4 w/3 mags for $390.00 OTD and I thought I did good. Honestly 75% of my guns were bought on the "Just too good of a deal to pass up" principle. All about being in right place at the right time. I got a Colt pony in 95% shape for $200.00. A S&W 637...

    model 640 .38spl--.38 special +P?

    that S&W 640 is probably an old NYPD off-duty revolver. The market got flooded w/those guns when NYPD switched to 9mm pistols. With that being said the all steel 640 guns are rated for +p ammo. The NYPD issues Speer GDHP 135gr. +P for any current officer still carrying the .38 special to...

    Would you buy a Police Trade In Glock 22?

    L.E trade ins are awesome. It's all about being in right place at the right time. Just picked up a LE trade in G23 third Gen. w/ 3 mags, Glock clamshell, rate it at 95%. Paid $390 OTD. Picked up used S&W 637 from Federal agent for $275 OTD. Gun was only fired 10rds. and never carried. Agent...

    high standard-out of business??

    Saw a flyer at my Local gun shop featuring High standard AR15 rifles and 1911 pistols. I thought HS went out of business yrs. ago. Once in a while I see a HS .22LR pistol show up on gunbroker. But I thought they went out of business yrs. ago. Is this another comapny just marketing guns made...

    Kahr cw40 help

    I had a PM9 w/same issue as OP. The problem is the trigger is not resetting after that initial round is fired. Kahr is known to have very tight tolerances, thus the 200rd. break-in period. Send it back to kahr. The ole "Kahr fluff and Buff" won't solve the OP's problem. I sent my PM9 back and...

    Taurus failure

    I've had the same issue w/ S&W 642. It is not limited to taurus, S&W, glock, ruger etc. Every company puts out lemons, it's how they take care of the problem that makes me trust a company or not. I am LEO firearms Instructor and have seen cops come to the range to qualify w/ various make...

    1911 chucking brass@my head

    Thanks for the advice. I may be limpwristing, have to pay closer attention next time. No marks of any type on my brass. It may be tension on the extractor. I think heavier recoil spring might help the feeding problem. Overall, I am happy w/ this $300.00 investment. It's my first 1911, nothing...

    Thinking of getting a PM-9 or PM-40 at the gunshow this weekend

    Shot both a PM9 and PM40 @ range before buying. The best way to decide is to "Test Drive" them both. I settled on PM9 because the recoil is a beast w/PM40. I own a Glock 27 and 1911 so I am not recoil sensitive. The .40 S&W is just too snappy for a little gun like the PM40. Shot my pals CW 40...

    1911 chucking brass@my head

    Got a commander size RIA 1911 (Rock Island armory). Took it to the range and the gun kicks brass into my forehead (ouch). On a couple of rounds the slide would not close all the way after inserting a new mag and chambering a round. After nudging the slide forward w/mt thumb, no problems. Gun was...

    Kahr K9

    My ccw is a Kahr PM9. I have thousand rounds thru her mostly Speer GDHP 124gr. This is my second PM9, first one was a lemon and would not fire more than 2 rounds in a row. Sent it back to kahr and they replaced it w/BNIB PM9 w/different serial#. The PM9 now functions fine, no hiccups. Kahr even...

    Re-blue or not?

    That python IS NOT a candidate for a re-blue. From the pics it looks great. If you consider that worn you should see a S&W model 36 snub I inherited the gun from a old school NYPD cop. Serial# dates to around the 1960's and is pinned barrel ,square butt w/flat latch. Thing looks like someone...

    What is the most unreliable semi auto you have shot ?

    Taurus PT-22 in 22LR. caliber. Biggest POS I ever owned. Bought it NIB and had nothing but troubles. Even bought a new magazine to see if that would fix the gun. Sent back to Taurus twice to no avail. Finally traded it in to one of those Police gun buyback programs for $200.00 debit card. Tried...

    which RIA do I have?

    Thanks guys. Called Ivan, Sales manager at RIA in NV he said I have a "Mid-size" model. He says that it should have came w/ a skeletonized trigger. He thinks someone swapped the trigger out. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet. Hope it works w/ Colt factory 8-rd. mags. I hear that 1911's are...

    which RIA do I have?

    My bad, the barrel is absolutely NOT the 5". It is a 4" or 3.5" and does not require a barrel bushing tool to take the weapon down for cleaning. The finish is all black w/no forward cocking serrations. Gun looks like it was never fired. Any ideas?
