39 years young. I'm the Senior R&D Technician for a very large Engineering company. (Global presence.) Single, never married, no kids. 1 GOOFBALL dog, 2 cats and a Western Hognose snake. I own 6 firearms down from 37. *cry* (I'm working on it.) I drive an old Nissan that aint pretty but...

Tangfolio and EAA I love those things! I dated a girl that bought one years ago and it was a TACK DRIVER! (I think it was a Tangfolio.) She used it for IDPA and wiped the floor with 80% of the guys that shot. (She used to regularly beat the STUFFING out of the two local PD guys which put...

Have you tried a Sig 230/232? A girl I dated some time ago was very petite and had problems with the stuff I owned. We tried a Sig 230 and she didn't have any problem with it at all. This led to her buying it from me and then a Beretta 380. She was a damn good shot with them too. She eventually...

You may want to wait and save a little more. It will allow you to make a ore informed decision AND help you save towards something you REALLY want and not feel like you have to compromise. Someone already suggested and I'll suggest again, go to a range. Most ranges will rent guns and then you...

My family was very anti-gun. Not to the point that I couldn't have toy guns or anything though. I wasn't allowed to have a bb/pellet rifle even though my Uncle was going to buy me one. (A Benjamin too! *cry*) Luckily, most of our neighbors hunted and I was friends so I got to learn in...

Thanks Brian! Greatly appreciate your time.

For what it's worth, I've used Georgia Arms for many many years. Basically since I moved to Atlanta 13 years ago. I think I have had 3 total duds from them and 2 were .223 and the other was a 9mm. I brought them back just to tease the guys with. I always buy ammo from them when I'm at the...

Hi all! My name is Mike and my friends call me Beta.(Long story) I live in Norcross, Georgia which is just outside 285 in Atlanta. I spent 6 years in the Navy(87-93) as a FC and now work for a global Engineering company specializing in AMR in Alpharetta, Georgia. I'm new to the site...

I don't know if this helps or not but I just bought a 10-8 this last weekend. It's 90-95% and I paid $250 for it and was very happy. It seems in my neck of the woods, Atlanta, Georgia, they sell for about $300 in slightly worse condition than the one I got. So, at least ONE sold well. (I...

I love your pics armoredman. I copied them for my computer. Hope that's ok. (Just for my own use.)

Wow, after reading through all this, I feel bad about posting my thread "Fell in love with a 10-8." All in all, I'll probably love 1911's more than anything but I do suddenly have a great appreciation for revolvers. Shooting the 10-8 that I just bought was like shooting any of the 1911's...

Hi all, new member here and I just wanted to step in and say hello. I'm not a new shooter but I am new to revolvers in general. I mostly shot 1911's since that's what I carried in the Navy so long and I've owned a few Glocks and other assorted pistols/rifles but never purchased a revolver...
