    Advice Sought on Particulars of New Ruger Revolver

    I have a blue 5.5 inch Vaquero .44 magnum in blue, with the conventional imitation white grip frame. If I were to do it all over again, I would have purchased a stainless, 4.5 inch Super Blackhawk with the Bisley grip frame.

    Is the .357 Magnum a better stopper than the .45 ACP?

    Per shot, the. 357 magnum, 158 grain hollowpoint is the number one man stopper. However, you will only be equipped with six shots when carrying any standard revolver. With the .45ACP, you could have as many as ten shots when carrying a semi-atuo pistol; perhaps more, if your magazine is a...

    It's a magazine, not a clip!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How to distinguish magazines from clips An excerpt: "A magazine is a device that hold cartridges. It holds cartridges in place, one on top of another, so that the gun may strip them off and fire them. Not all guns load via magazines. The ones that do are usually autoloaders. Magazines are...

    The Honeymoon's over with my 340SC

    For those guns prone to powder burn marks at the nose of the barrel and mouth of the slide, I wipe the area clean with a cloth as soon as the barrel begins to heat up during my shooting stints at the range. Rather than wait for the barrel to cool and the powder burns to harden, wipe the area...

    How does the Glock stay accurate?

    I was for a long time sceptical of Glocks. Then I shot my friend's G34 and immediately became a convert. Within a month, I acquired the G21, 34, and 35. I have cycled hundreds of flawless and accurate rounds through the first two. The 35 is anxiously waiting for me to take it to the range...

    Non-fluted cylinders?

    I prefer the non-fluted cylinders. They are aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. Why does Freedom Arms and Ruger equip their most powerful revolvers with non-fluted cylinders?

    Lever Action Tactical and Plinker

    The .30-30 is a great all-around round. I would not want to plink with such a powerful round, unless I'm wearing a good shoulder pad. The handgun cartridge .357 magnum, when fired from a 20-inch rifle barrel, takes on much more velocity and power than when fired from a revolver. Many...

    What UNFIRED handgun would you trust your life with?

    Without question, I second the comments provided by Will Fennell. The Beretta 92 is the one handgun on which to stake one's life. With well over 1,000 rounds through my blue 92FS, this gun has never failed me. Thank you, Will, for your post.
