    What is the most unreliable semi auto you have shot ?

    Jennings 25. It was a POS but it was all my friend could afford. A couple of us work on it a bit. It would run, mostly, with winchester. That jennings POS may well have saved her life. It fired ONE time. The gentleman robbing her, decided that her purse was enough, after all and ran away. We...

    CZ-75 (clones) Carry

    I have put 5K (10K?) through my stock CX-75B shooting plates & other things. I have had 2 fails to fire. Both of them had dents in the primers. I have had several fail to extracts. I also blame the ammunition for those as well. It points and shoots where I want it to. I have my GP100 under my...

    Don't take being armed as meaning you won't get killed...

    I have a different spin on the whole thing. In my book your buddy won. Yes it sucks he died too but he got the job done. If it happens to me I hope and PRAY I can do as well. Your friend has saved the lifes of others and no man can do more than that.

    Ruger Revolvers Longevity?

    I've put at least 2k per year through my GP100 since 1990. Most of that has been moderate 38's shooting plates & targets. I think I have gotten it broke in. Give me anouther twenty years and I will let you know. Anyone who shot up a gp100 frame in 20K has been doing something very strange.

    Are Revolvers inferior to a Glock?

    Easy answer for me. Put a pissed off large bear and you in the sme place at the same time. Now which pistol do you want? A dead reliable ruger 44 mag or any glock?

    OLD 45 & auto slide lock?

    My brother was given an OLD colt 45. The serial number on the pistol is 23,337. This would indicate a 1913 mfg date. The pistol says Model C on it. When we fired the pistol the slide did not lock back after the last round. My question is this : Is the 1913 full size model C colt 45 semi auto...

    if you absolutely had to use a .22 for self defense?

    My grandfather was a itinerant country bucher. One christmass I gave him a 100 round box of the CCI minimag HP. For the next few years he used that box up shooting cattle with a bolt action rifle. There were no misfires and only one cow took a second shot. The cow that took a second shot was a...
