    Glocks...Should I buy into the ugliness??

    Glocks are reliable, accurate enough, easy to clean and have very resistant finishes. If you already have 1911s, revolvers and other semiautos then you should branch out and get a Glock.

    No experience with Brazos but they have a good reputation. I have bought 3 of my 1911's from Dawson and have no complaints.

    CZ-75b musings

    The CZ75B points so well and handles recoil very well. One can get 12-round MecGar mags for it. My only gripes with it are: (1) the slide serrations are not too grippy such that if one puts in heavyweight recoil springs on them for use in hotter .40S&W ammo (e.g., Double Tap, etc.), racking...

    My P229 dont wonts to shoot

    From the picture of your target above, it seems the impact was low and to the right --- not to the left. Also, the Sig sights are set to point-of-aim and not at 6 o'clock. This may explain why you are shooting low. But it doesn't explain why you are shooting to the right. Some others may be...

    .357 Magnum vs .45 ACP

    I've seen a video clip of a guy (was it Jerry Miculek?) firing off 12 rounds in under 3 seconds (or was it 2 seconds). Of course, he used a moonclip for the reload. That's too fast for mere mortals like us. Don't worry about the next shot. Just concentrate on each shot and go as fast as...

    .357 Magnum vs .45 ACP

    Sicario103, If you park your car in an isolated place where armed goons are liable to jump you at any moment, then, by all means do not carry an obsolete revolver. For that matter, you should not even carry an obsolete 1911. You should carry with you a high-capacity piece with a lot of extra...

    .357 Magnum vs .45 ACP

    Yes, indeed. But I just dare the BG to sneak up on me when I have these pieces of obsolete metal implements with me.

    Sig p229?

    I have two Sig 229's. One in .40S&W and the other in .357Sig. This is one of those models (other than a 1911) that I have two of. The other is the USP40 compact. I also had two Sig 226's but I sold off one of them. The 229 just fits my hand better. I like its robust and massive slide...

    snubbie for CCW... hammer or no hammer?

    If you ever have to draw your piece, you'd better be serious or don't draw at all.

    Yup. South East Asia. That's not a country. So which country again?

    Had a very scary range day this weekend

    This was a major safety rule violation, and everybody just took it like that? :mad: Everybody follows the rules, no exceptions. If he was in my club he would have been banned from the range. Also, the NRA instructor is responsible for every guest he brings to the range. And in my club...

    Ball Detent Lockup

    I have a question regarding the ball detent lockup feature of most S&W Performance Center revolvers. This feature is highlighted in the S&W 627 or PC blued model 29. The theory is that this provides a stronger lockup such that the revolver can fire a lot more heavy loads without becoming...

    What's the optimum barrel length for the .454 Casull in a levergun? I'm thinking of getting a Puma Legacy.

    Moron Aboard

    I agree. Due to some circumstances, some of us find ourselves in some of these commie states because of jobs, schools, family, etc. So we just have to make the best of the bad situation.

    Ruger SRH Alaskan now in .44 mag

    Same sentiments here. The SRH Alaskan was a great backup package but I didn't want to add a new caliber to my ammo supply also. Now that it comes in .44mag I think I might consider it then. The Alaskan loaded with the hottest .44mags from BB, DT, Garrett or Grizzly Cartridge would still be a...

    Which Levergun to get?

    It's true that the Marlin 1894 in .44mag has a 1:38" rate of twist. I think, that's too slow to stabilize a 300-grainer. If you're only shooting up to 250-270gr it should be OK, I believe. (It should be perfect for 240gr.) Although I also have the 1894C in .357mag, if I can only have one...
