It's not my problem anymore. Sold it to a neighbor for $400 yesterday morning to help pay for the new Para Ord. Elite Stainless. I think I'll like it.

Bought a new Para Ord. Elite Stainless yesterday. Really was looking forward to taking it home but was held up. I can wait for a few days.

I was actually more concerned with the possibility of an accidental discharge. I see now I wasn't very clear on that. I have very limited experiance and knowledge concerning 1911 hanguns and I don't mind asking what may be seen as stupid questions. The gun had been abused so much by the previous...

I did have those problems with a Bersa Thunder .380 deluxe. Finally resolved after mag replacement.

Not much at all. Now have less than 2000 rnds and 650 of that is .22LR. (not counting SD carry loads that I can't afford to shoot) Only other rnd I have enough to last more than 1-2 trips to the range is .45acp. And maybe 7.62 X .25 and I have yet to fire that 45-50 yr. old Yugoslavian bomb...

Well, if I hadn't been an idiot and traded away my old ruger '72 Security Six...............!

10 t0 13 if 9mm, along with 4 (.38 spec.) in my old S&W Mod. 36. When carrying a .45acp., 8 of course (with another mag). If I ever do need to find out what's sufficient , I hope 1 or 2 rnds will do. My prayer is that I don't need any.

Bought a C 100 about 3 months ago. have only been able to fire about 150 rnds because there's a severe shortage of 9mm around here. I'm not sure I'd say I fire it more accurately that my old CZ 75, but I seem to get it on target quicker. I do have better accuracy with it (from about 15-20 ft...

I bought the Ruger LC9. Traded it back in within a few weeks. I'm not exactly an expert marksman so this was, for me anyway, another foolish impulse buy.

I moved into an appartment 15 months ago where I know live alone. My number one rule, now that it's up to me alone, is that nobody is allowed through the door that I have reason not to trust. It makes no difference who they are with. That has upset a couple of family members but so be it. My...

I think you may have solved my problem. The old screw head is almost stripped, plus the bolt is just a fraction too long to secure it snuggly. I'll replace it. The gun does fire in single and double action. It's a keeper imo. Much too enjoyable to fire for me to give up on it. Only other thing...

Nothing at all around here except an occasional box of .357 mag and .38 spec. Forget finding 9mm, 40 cal., or .22lr. I'm down to 150 rnds of 9mm and 750 of 22lr. Glad I bought 45acp on sale a couple of months ago. At the local gun shop the ammo doesn't make it to the shelves. You have to pretty...

I bought an old S&W 645 a few months ago but I don't think it's safe to fire. At some point the rt. side safety lever had been drilled through and re attached but I finally removed it because it kept comming loose. The main problem I have is that when I pull back the slide the hammer doesn't...

I'm half asleep most of the time when I'm on line. This office is really quiet except on Sundays.

I really like my G 23, but then I've had a few hundred rounds to get use to it. You should give the G 19 a try imo.
