    RM380 - The Latest Info

    I've had one for about 5 weeks and two good range sessions (125 or so rounds). Mine has been completely reliable with 5 different brands of ammo; it's been as accurate as I would expect or require from a very compact pistol designed for close range in the first place. I like that it's DAO and...

    Remington RM380

    The magazines were in fact designed for 9mm, which leaves open a possibility that the basic firearm design leaves the door open for a 9mm version at some point in the future. The ergonomics of the RM380 are one of its biggest drawing cards (in my opinion); I think you'll find it's as satisfying...

    Remington RM380

    And in so doing, Hickock45 exactly followed the owner's manual instructions for field stripping with no tools at hand - and all he proved was that the manual instructions are correct. Assuming that you didn't grease the pin when you assembled the gun because if you did, the grease keeps the pin...

    Remington RM380

    I bought one a couple of weeks ago and have two range sessions under my belt with it. I like it a lot. The fit is good and everything that is supposed to function, functions exactly as it's supposed to. Many pocket .380s are finicky when it comes to ammo choice but I've shot 4 different brands...

    Renew an old subject:Remington R 51

    This is true. But I think what RON in PA is referring to is the on-line product catalog at this link (the link is on the website): https://secure.viewer.zmags.com/publication/c85ce27c#/c85ce27c/1 and the R51 is NOT in that catalog - even though it IS on the website.

    I have an RM380 and your description of how to remove the takedown pin is very accurate. Like many other semi-automatic pistols, the takedown pin is captured by the slide so that it can only be removed when a hole in the slide precisely aligns with the take down pin and it takes a bit of finesse...

    Glock 43 Talo

    I have one also - in fact until I read this post I didn't realize what it was; I bought it slightly used at a LGS for a good price. The front sight is a Trijicon and the orange really stands out in daylight. The gun was made in Smyrna, GA. I like it - a lot actually - shoots like any other...

    PSA-25 pistol?

    I have a PSA .25 that I bought a number of years ago and finally got around to shooting it a few years ago. It was fun to shoot but not easy to keep all parts of my hand away from the gun's moving parts. I tried for many years to find a decent Baby Browning and was always disappointed in both...

    LEM vs DA/SA in HK

    Light LEM on all my H&Ks.

    Ruger SR22

    I love my SR22. It's accurate, although perhaps limited by its short sight radius - but easily hits beer can of angle at 25 yards. I was hitting spent shotgun shells at 7 yards the first time out with it before I even regulated the sights. I've shot about 5 different kinds of ammo - mostly the...

    Is Philiadelphia really this bad?

    Given that there's no audio evidence to suggest that - either from what Mr. Fiorino can be heard saying or from what any of the officers can be heard saying that may be a big presumption. I suspect the upcoming trial will be interesting and that claims will be made about what happened. It's...

    Is Philiadelphia really this bad?

    The saddest / scariest thing in this situation is not that there is something more to this situation that makes it not as bad as it looks (as you seem to be suspecting) but rather that the situation with the PPD is actually much worse than this incident highlights. Just as a reference - this is...

    Is Philiadelphia really this bad?

    Mr. Fiorino has been charged by the DA but none of those charges are related to the gun which he carried. Consider that this encounter began with the police Sargent accosting Mr. Fiorino as "Yo Junior" and Mr. Fiorino turned to find the Sargent's pistol aimed at his COM. I think it's a pretty...

    Is Philiadelphia really this bad?

    Sadly I'm aware that the legality of recording the police will vary from state to state which is why I bolded the phrase "perfectly legal in PA" in my post. Mr. Fiorino is well aware of PA law and the fact that he can legally record interactions with police should they occur; in this case he...

    Is Philiadelphia really this bad?

    There are rulings by the PA Supreme Court in at least 3 cases: Agnew v Dupler 717 A.2d 519, 523 (PA 1998) Kelly v. Borough of Carslile, 622 F.3d 248 (3d. Cir. 2010) Com. v. Henlen, 522 Pa. 514, 564 A.2d 905 (1989) in which the court has held that a police officer in the performance of...
