    The joy of the .22 handgun

    .22 rock...I love picking up the WAllmart special, 550 rnds of Rem for a little over $10. Wouldn't mind a .22 handgun at all, very cool.

    Better shot with revolver?

    Revolver here, I brought this question up in a slightly different way in another thread. I shoot my 9mm more but with my .357, I usually always dead on. For me it has to do with the action, I know exactly when the .357 is going to fire, with the 910 it's a little more touchy.

    Newbie cleaning question

    I had the same questions when I bought mine. Most important thing you can do is clean the gun after every time you use it. Never use steel wool on the front of the cylinder, you'll eventually increase the clearances between the cylinder and forcing cone and get that oh so favorable "obviously...

    Handled a Taurus 1911 this weekend.

    The reviews of it I've heard so far have been quite good. Taurus I think makes a quality firearm anyway so I don't think I'd hesitate to pick one up myself. $450 you really can't go wrong. Sure, I'd love a Spring or Kimber or Para, etc, but hell, if I wanted a 1911 out of impulse I'd pick up...

    With the 4" you'll find yourself taking out bowling pins at 100 yrds once or twice a wheel :)

    Dropped my Gun...

    Didn't the pistol come with multiple magazine release buttons? :o

    Did you vote?

    I did not, I'm not registered in the county I currently live in and never got an absentee ballot :(

    S&W 910 accuracy

    And the funny thing is, I thought I found the guns happy point. In DA I seem to shoot better because I know when the gun will fire, but a lot of people have that same problem with any autoloader.

    Gun shop salesman tells me Springfield 1911's are "crap"...

    The Springs I've shot I wasn't that impressed with, but I also had the same luck with the Kimber as well. IMO, nothing beats a Para as far as 1911's go, especially with LDA ;)

    New 686P

    Hell, that sounds like something I may try. I was contemplating some Hogue wood grips but that sounds better.

    S&W 910 accuracy

    I've put about 2000+ rounds or so on my 910 chambered in 9mm. It's fun to shoot, 9mm is very cheap and I like the feel, however on paper this guns sucks. What's interesting is that Pat Sweeney raved about the accuracy in the S&W chronicles. Now, I'm not doubting that this could very well be...

    New 686P

    That's one thing I loved about mine when I got it, the trigger. I shot a couple other revs before, including the GP100. It's not a bad gun by any means, just not for me. The SA is also great and the gun itself is very accurate with a 4" barrel.

    S&W 686 or 649 for the wife's carry/work weapon?

    I think the S&W performance shop will bobb the hammer for you, if not any gunsmith can.

    experts on SKS and AK rifles

    I just bought an SKS, I really like it. The grenade launcher, sights, and bayonet may not have a real place, but they look cool and make a great conversation starter. I just recently had a problem with mine, the cut-off switch to the gas function was acting up so I took it in, probably get it...
