    Biggest handgun disappointment.

    Just about any of the Taurus revolvers I ever bought EXCEPT the 9 shot .22LR (Mod. 94 IIRC), it was very good. The rest (3 or 4) all went back at least once for repair. I think Taurus' best handgun has been the Model PT92 9mm pistol. Their revolvers though....pretty sucky. And I'm seriously...

    EAA EZ9 Mags Should Work in a CD ZDA, Shouldn't They?

    Now that EAA is selling the 9mm Zastava CZ-05 as their EZ9, their 15 rd. mags should become more plentiful around here, right? I've got a real hankerin' for one of the older Charles Daly ZDAs but can pretty much only find the 10 rd. mags at this time, and do not want the pistol if I cannot get...

    Credit Card Info Stolen! Be Alert.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. It appears that my credit card information has been compromised. Someone has tried to charge approx. $700 to my Visa in the past 15 days. This may not mean much to most of...

    $300 NRA life membership

    For those of you that signed up a friend or relative for $300 and still have not received an activation packet, be patient. I signed up my daughter Oct. 18th and finally got the packet last week. When I called about 3 weeks ago they told me they were overwhelmed and had to print up more packets...

    Does being bigger make CC'ing easier?

    At 5'9"/235 lbs I find that my 'Dun-lops' over the belt seem to help push the butt of my pistols farther out, making it more difficult to hide my IWB CCW. However, this is primarily with the double-stack mags such as my G27 & G19, which should probably be expected. My J-frames disappear and the...

    Best SD gun for small, weak, arthritic hands?

    Well Mr. Oldphart sir when I read your post I thought about myself reaching my seventies and what I would want under the circumstances you describe. My first thought was what has already been listed- the lightweight S&W 431PD in .32 magnum. Being a S&W the quality is very good and if the trigger...

    2" 44 mag 5 shot from Taurus

    Might this be a companion piece to their 68 oz. 2 1/4" barrelled stainless .500 Magnum? :what: :what: I really NEED to fire off one of those someday.

    Ship In-Line Muzzleloader Through Mail?

    Thank you for your response. My situation is I, as a private individual, want to send it to another individual. In your case it appears that the muzzleloaders were either coming from or going to a licensee/manufacturer. This is where it gets fuzzy to me. The only possible saving grace seems to...

    Ship In-Line Muzzleloader Through Mail?

    Heck, I work for these people and I still cannot get a good answer. Our Publication 52 which deals with mailing firearms does not deal with inline M/L rifles, only the antique and reproductions. Our clerks are not sure either. On the BATF site all I found was a published opinion dating back to...

    Which Would You Choose?

    Diamondbacks are probably the finest compact frame .38s ever made, though you would probably have to get a smaller grip such as the Pachmyer Compac. I had to do this with mine as I too have small hands. While the D-Back was my very first handgun I did not regret selling it as I could not bring...

    Dress Me Up

    Goin' Chinese huh? No problemmo as far as the equipment is concerned. Just pick one each from Column A and two from Column B. Have 'em wrap them up in those little square to go boxes with the wire handles and you'll blend in like Osama at a Midget Muslims makeover meeting.

    5.7 ammo manufacturers

    I've heard rumor about two or three different companies are going to produce the S196 type ammo,but nothing definitive yet. No matter who will have it, I think it will still be a couple of months before the new V-Max round becomes available in quantity, if not longer. 'Til then my FiveSeven...

    So is the full-cap 9mm making a comeback post AWB?

    Yup. Just ordered five 31 rd. 9 mm Glock hicaps, and I don't even own a Glock 9mm at this time! Looking to get a Kel-Tec Sub 2K but I cannot decide which pistol I want-a Model 17 or a 19. Probably whichever comes along at the best price, though I previously owned a very early Gen. 1 Mod. 17 and...

    How much do you take to a gun show

    I try to hit 2 or 3 shows a year. I normally try to have $500-700 a show. This weekend is our big show in Phoenix. For that I'll have about $2K and a couple guns I haven't been able to sell yet. I'll stick a price a little on the high side for each, hang a sign on my back, and do a little...

    Singer Sewing Machine 1911 ACP!!!

    I remember back in '82 my uncle in Nashville took me down into his basement and opened one of his large gun safes. As we were perusing through it he pulled out both a Remington-Rand and a Singer 1911 in .45. I knew nothing about 1911's back then (Don't know much more about them today.) but I was...

    IIRC Hoppes Elite is basically Mpro7 repackaged.

    Person-to-person gun sales

    When doing a FTF I would like to see an AZ CCW or an AZ driver's license. With only a driver's license I will try to remember to ask them if they are not a convicted felon and meet federal and Arizona requirements for posessing a firearm. I do not copy down any info, just want to be sure they...

    Glock....isn't that the one her uncle warned her about? Girls. They'll do it every time!

    Taking the Plunge. Info Needed.

    Thanks for the info, and keep it coming. With an inline M/L using saboted projectiles do you still use a lube and patch, especially when using pelleted powder? Is this patch what holds the projectile in the barrel, or does it fit between the powder and the projectile? What do you use the lube...
