    What if open carry never went away...

    I doubt many would want to tote around a 40-60oz carry gun. I'd still take a sub-compact 9mm. I also replace my cell phones with smaller models as they are released. I enjoy comfort.

    Scope Rings for AR

    Yep. My recommendation would be Badger Ordnance and a 1/2" wrench. I only thow a Swarovski on my AR for 1 week a year(whitetail season). Then it's replaced by my Eotech for another 12 months. I use a set of the all-steel permanent Warnes.

    what about the 357sig??

    So it isn't just a local thing. "Local" meaning the entire states of MN, ND, SD, WI & IA. The most loads I've ever seen in one store is 3. This includes Gander Mountain, Cabelas, Scheels and Sportsmans Wharehouse, while there's no shortage of 9mm, .40 or .45acp choices.

    Tell me about the Kahr PM9

    My PM9 has been 100% reliable and rivals my G26 in accuracy, or Sig 239, G19, G17, and G34 for that matter. Great little guns and half the weight of the baby Glocks when both are loaded to full cpacity. This is the second one I've purchased. The first was a gift to my brother. His has also...

    help me decide quick!!!

    I'd look back to previous carry experiences. It's fairly easy to see what's worked on the past. Summer weather in the south...A large auto or compact revolver? It would take me 2 seconds to make my decission. See Username- It's hard to enjoy a vacation if one's contnuously worrying about...

    Talk Me Out Of A Colt Gunsite 1911 For Duty

    Kinda in a hurry and haven't read through the entire thread yet. I purchased a new Colt Gunsite a little over a year ago. Make sure you handle it before you buy. I special ordered mine and it was REALLY loose. All the movement was between the slide/frame. The barrel & bushing was tight...

    Date of Manufacture of my new Glock

    KB's In Glocks, the famous culprit is the use of non-jacketed ammunition. It's said lead build-up occurs on the polygonal rifling and causes excessive pressures, thus resulting in a KB. Normally the magazine shears the mag-release and blows it(magazine) out the bottom, though damage has been...

    Who has .45acp, M3 grease gun mags?

    Off topic but perhaps an interesting fact- The M3 was still in service with 3/7Cav, Ft. Stewert, GA when my enlistment ended in '97. It was primarily issued to tankers, but not very many.

    From Kahr back to Glock

    I've owned G26s for the past nine years. It's my favorite centerfire pistol design and I wear one 18 hours a day. They rock! That said, I purchased my brother a PM9 lst year that's very accurate and 100% reliable. I also put one on layaway for myself last Saturday. I'd been waiting for XS to...

    I'd like a cheap, reliable, concealable pistol; ideas?

    Before you purchase another handgun.... . Why not just attempt some .38 or .38+P and try get that thing shooting straight before moving on. It's most likely "recoil anticipation" that's throwing the magnum shots anyways. I would spend that $200 on practice ammo if it were me. A 9X18 Mak...
