    Pitbull AK-47 - American made - anyone have any experience with them?

    A rose by any other name would smell as sweet? Something like that. WTSHTF, I won't care if your rifle is called the "Fruitcake Special" if it's doing it's intended job. I'm in the market for an AK, and would like to know what's the best route, and this seems worth a look. I need a good...

    .45 ACP M&P, G21 or XD?

    No S&W's. Period. Unless they're older DAO gats. No need fer a XD, either I guess. At least as long as the other competitor is a Gliddock. We all know the history and durability/reliability of 'em. After watching "Handguns" doing this week after week torture test of an XDM, though, Maybe I...

    Question about Taurus Revolver im about to buy

    Sound right for a new one maybe. Or close to it. For a lil more, I'd swing fer an sp101.

    Opinions on affordable revolvers.

    SP101. Da Greatest Snubby Evah, IMO. Aktually, I like the 3in best. Too bad they don't do the factory engraved version. I used to own 1, a 2in model, and sold it to my Bro. No suprise, it's a Ruger after all. Built like a bank vault. Sexy lines, IMO too. Yet another gat he took me to the cleaner...

    How many guns do you carry and why?

    Glock 19 or 26 w/2 spare mags. Sometimes I throw them both on, if I get the "Feeling". I carry a backpack with a small flashlight, knife, and a couple other "necessities". Medicines and what not in it. I've toted a bag like that since I was a teenager. Different reasons and different...

    silencer, would you ?

    Yes. I'd like to have one for literally ALL of my guns. Well, not the 45-70. My Ruger MKII, Glocks, and the shootgun even. Ever seen "No Country For Old Men?" 'Nuff said...

    OK Glockophiles; Gen 3 or 4??

    I'd go Gen3 if you can get one that's NOT RTF. If it is RTF, then I'd have to retexture the grip. Those damn things are HARSH! I do dig teh Gen4 though. 75 bux aint much, and I like the mag release being able to go on the right side for my middle finger.

    Worth it to carry a custom 1911?

    I'd say get you a nice 1911, and then get some of those super-hawt grips from Olympus' avatar! Those are sick! Inexpensive too. Wow, man. Threadjack over...

    I have a Mares Leg on its way...

    Too cool. My dad and I both have wanted one of these for quite some time. I usually see 'em for 1k and up though. I'll have to look into the Rossi for sure.

    Worth it to carry a custom 1911?

    I wont buy anything I wont carry and shoot. If you're putting yur life on it, it only makes sense to me to get/ have the best equipment you can. Well worth it IMO.

    Anyone arm themselves at Home?

    I do. I wake up and strap on the Miami Classic. Everyday. I don't go out to smoke, or to the store, or anywhere without it. 70k home invasions a year have me feeling more than justified in doing so without thinking I'm being paraniod. Strange I feel defensive about that. Like I owe someone an...

    What gun companies haven't "sold out?"

    HK has had an issue with that with the ITD also. Years ago when I worked there, I tried and tried to get them to offer civvie classes, and they really did look at me like I had lost my mind. They ran off about how unsafe, irresistable, and sue-happy people are. Cops and Military were obviously...
