I have the stainless version with fixed sights. Mine has a very tight frame to slide fit, no movement at all up and down or side to side. The grip safety is perfectly fitted and the thumb safety is perfect positive on or off click. I'm not sure where adw got his info but from what I've...

Whats the recoil like on this model? Is it as bad as that of a Mossin Nagant 1891/30??

Which is more accurate and is the difference noticeable? How do they compare to the other rifles of the era...the K31, Mausers, M39 Nagants?? I keep having a hard time deciding which to get.

Okay with all of your help I have narrowed it down to these two. Basically I will be using this as an introduction to rifles. Been a handgun shooter for a while and I figured I'll give the long guns a try and I wanted to try something cheap early on to see what I may be interested in and the...

Which do you guys think it is, or better yet what are say the top 3 in accuracy. I assume they are probably bolt action.

My department issues the SW99 (.40) but I have always carried my personally owned Sig P226 (.40). I tried the SW99 out for fun, something new, and I noticed that it was very comfortable in my hand, recoiled relatively softly and was dead on accurate. The only problem I had was that every 100...

I recently shot a Beretta 92fs and a Sig P226 in .40 back to back. I noticed know difference in recoil between the two...they were both quite pleasant. The 9mm round was 115 grain +P and the .40 was 155 grain. FWIW.

Where did this get moved to?

If you had to choose between Federal Hydrashok in either 155 grain or 180 grain which would you go with and why? Those are your only 2 choices. No you can't stretch it to a 10mm or enlarge it to a .45 or shrink it to a 9mm or .357 and you certainly can't change to a .30-06. Lets please try...

The fact that it happens doesnt make it right or cool. Dont get me wrong Im not gonna cry about it it jsut irritates me because its rude. I dont knock other peoples choices so please don't knock mine. If you dont care about irritating others continue to do so but if you want to be courteous...

I'm not trying to be snippy here but...oh what the heck I a trying to be snippy....For those of you who chose to disparage the .40 in your posts please keep your negative comments to yourselves. I certainly didn't ask for them. I like the .40 and that is why I asked which .40 not which 9mm or...

If you could only have one gun in .40 for everything..home defense..ccw..duty (if applicable) range target shooting etc. Which gun (make and model) would it be?

Does the .357 Sig round wear guns out faster then the .40? I have the P226 so thats the one I'd be thinking of. I thought I heard something about the Texas DPS cracking frames but I don't know if there was any validity to it. Anyone know?

What types of new ammo are safe for the M1 Garand? Federal American Eagle 150grain?

Why HRA? What makes the HRA's a better way to go then the SA's? I'm new to all this so I am still learning
