    S&W 6906

    They are good pistols, I had a 6906 and a 6946. I agree with what all have said above, but if you pick one up, and have problems, know that spare parts are getting harder to come by.

    Using Beretta 92 Slide Release: Damage?

    It will not cause damage, it was designed to be used that way. If your concerned about potential damage, learn to lube it property and how to change out some springs and you'll be shooting it forever.

    anyone tried NP3 by Robar to reduce friction, or ....

    For most autos I think it makes no difference. However, a NP3 coated Beretta 92 with light grease on the rails and block was is the easiest auto I have ever racked, and was a pretty nice shooter.

    Father's Day Shoot

    I myself took my 10 year old out to shoot his grandpa's .22 revolver for his very first time. His smile was ear to ear! Great day.

    CMP 1911 price announcement

    For anything other than a curio or collector, it's definitely a pass for me. I agree with the post above: more Garands!

    First time flying with pistol/ccw in tacoma wa

    As stated, there is no longer reciprocity with WA, which has since become progressively less gun friendly since I lived there. Have a nice trip!

    Found a Grendel P12

    My experience: had one in the mid 90's, all I could afford at the time. Shot it a couple of times, trigger broke. Sent to factory, for repair, returned. The first release of the slide on a loaded mag caused a "slam fire." I have an unfavorable opinion of them and over the years understand...
