https://item.brownells.com/brands/navidrex/browning-hi-power-combat-grips-browning-hi-power-black-micarta-thin-grips.htm I've tried a lot of different gripes on my hi-powers over the years, but I stopped looking after putting these Navidrex grips on. I took a little sandpaper to them to smooth...

FN did produce new HP with the SFS system. I know, I bought two. I wish I bought more. I like the SFS, because it adds another level of safety. The 1911 has the passive grip safety that the HP does not have. I would feel comfortable carrying a 1911 cocked and locked, but not a normal HP...

When I applied, you had to be a New York state resident for 2 years before you could even apply. I just read through the latest manual from SCPD and there is no mention of this requirement any more so maybe they have changed that. The whole process took 9 months for me. The interview was...

Don't know about Wal-Mart and their guns, but I do know that some big box stores don't get better pricing because they buy in bulk, they actually tell the suppliers what they are going to pay. For example, my brother owns a company that supplies "The Home Depot" with kitchen counter tops. They...

It depends on which end of the barrel you are looking down. ;)

He is not a criminal until a judge or jury says he is a criminal. Trespassing is a misdemeanor and one wouldn't expect to be executed for it. Next time you don't cross the street at a crosswalk or you change lanes without signaling, watch out, there might be someone near you with your attitude...

So this guy was not stealing anything at the time of the shooting? It seems that he was only trespassing and got killed for it. The son was on the roof "lying in wait" for a thief to come by so he could shoot him. Why couldn't the son just call 911? Sorry but I think the son used very poor...

My Hi-Power fits the Comp-Tac holster perfectly. The holster is adjustable and they even throw in an allen wrench. I left mine adjusted the way it came. The gun clicks in, but is still easy to remove. The gun hasn't tried to bounce out yet, so I guess it is adjusted properly.

These pics have been around for about two years now and I have yet to see a live demonstration of this alleged gun. The only thing I see are these pictures which look like they are computer generated. Anyone seen any pictures of this thing other than the ones on their web site? Call me a...

That was very funny. Thanks, that made my night. Why didn't these girls just call 911? It sure would have saved everyone a lot of grief. I had a macho jerk follow me for about 10 miles once flashing his brights on and off. I had gotten on to a two lane highway from an entrance ramp and...

I'm very happy with my comp tac paddle holster. Very sturdy and doesn't move around at all. The people at the company are a real pleasure to deal with also. They try very hard to please their customers.

OMG!!! I just found out that thugs have discovered Duracoat. Now you won't be able to tell that they are thugs. They will be able to blend in with the rest of us!!!

I have two hi-powers with the SFS safety. Thumbing the safety lever down is not any harder than a normal hi-power. The hammer actually springs back to the rear position. It works very easily. When you put the safety on you push the hammer forward with your thumb, the hammer moves forward...

I didn't think that CDNN shipped guns to California. I tried to buy from them and they wouldn't do business with me cause I'm in NY. Figured Calif. was the same.

Set up a meeting, but on your own term. Call her from someone elses phone and tell her you saw the chairs she has for sale on craigslist. Meet with her under that pretense and check her out. Bring a camera and take lots of pictures of her and her friends. Then go home and call the cops. Or...
