    S&W Model 19-2 vs. 686-2 (4" bbl)?

    I saw a two guns at a pawn shop that I'm interested in: a model 19-2 and a model 686-2, both 4" barrels in .357 mag. I want to get one of these, but I'm trying to decide which one. I've read a whole spectrum of things about the Model 19, ranging from "the best .357 mag ever made" to "cracks...

    Anyone CCW a 4" or 5" XD 45? How concealable is the 5"?

    So I'm looking to get an XD .45 ACP in the near future. I primarily want it for HD, which makes me think 5" barrel. However, I may want to carry it eventually, which makes me think 4" barrel and compact version (10+1 short grip & 13+1 full grip). What do you guys think? Anyone CCW a 5"...

    XD-M parts compatibility with XD (mags, LaserMax, etc.)?

    1) Will the 19 rd XD-M 9 mm mags fit in a standard XD 9 mm or XD Tactical 9 mm? 2) Does LaserMax make a guide rod for the XD-M? If not, are there plans to make one? I know the M version has a 4.5" barrel, whereas the standard has a 4" and the tactical has a 5". So as far as I can tell, they...

    Good holster for a P7 PSP?

    Anyone here carry a P7 PSP? I did a search and saw links to Milt Sparks (too expensive for my blood), Blade Tech (not sure if I want Kydex--too much wear on the gun), and K&D. What do you carry your P7 PSP in? I kind of like that Dakota Defender, but I'm still looking around and...

    Do Kydex holsters cause more finish wear on a gun than leather?

    Looking for a holster for a P7 PSP and I've read a few recommendations for some Kydex models. My concern is the effect Kydex might have on the finish of the gun. Also, is Kydex comfortable to carry? It seems like it would dig into you. I use a leather holster for my current CCW gun, and I...

    Are all P7 mags the same (P7M8, PSP, etc.)?

    Will P7M8 mags fit a P7 or P7PSP? I know the M8 has a different mag release, so I was wondering if they'd fit. Thanks!

    Tips for cleaning a .22LR?

    So I'm having a heck of a time cleaning my .22 LR firearms. I'm new to .22 LR, relatively speaking. No matter how small I cut the patches, I have a hard time getting them through the barrel. Does anyone just use a spray cleaner followed by a spray lubricant on a .22 LR? Tips? I have no...

    Bud's Gun Shop Prices Rising?

    Anyone else notice that Bud's prices have risen faster than some of the other prominent online retailers? I used to use Bud's as the standard against which to measure others, but now I find that they're not that good for a lot of the same guns they used to be great for in terms of price...

    $500 poll with explanation

    So you have medium caliber pistols (9 mm) and centerfire rifles covered (although a P7PSP would be nice). But, you don't have any rimfires (e.g. 22 LR pistol or handgun), high powered handguns (e.g. .357 mag, 10 mm, .45 ACP), or shotguns. Assume you have ~$500 to spend. Which gun or guns...

    First 1911 Poll. STI Spartan, RIA, Taurus

    So I've been reading some of the prior threads on here. I'm leaning toward a Spartan, but I've read really good things about the RIA (which is cheaper). My issue is, I'd want a beaver tail grip safety and a few mods to the RIA, which would drive the price up. The STI comes with everything I'd...

    MI gun law question re: registration

    I realize that the "safety inspection" requirement will be lifted in January by the recently passed bill, but that registration will continue. My question is, do handguns acquired in FTF transactions have to be registered by law, or is it only new handguns or FFL transfers that have to be...

    Another "CCW gun for my wife" thread

    So my wife wants a CCW gun. She has a hard time shooting a P3AT but likes the size & weight for portability. She doesn't mind shooting a RAMI-P, but thinks it's too big and heavy when it's loaded (but not when it's empty). So I'm toying with some ideas: -Bersa Thunder (+/- CCW version)...
