    1911 is outdated?

    Agreed. Another quote attributed to Vickers was, "if you treat your pistol like you treat your lawnmower, buy a Glock." His point, as I understood it, was simply put, some folks just don't want to maintain their tools. Glocks can take a lot of shooting and abuse without cleaning or lube for...

    The most accurate small pistol you have fired?

    +1 for the Kahr CW380. I purchased one last week and have found it to be one of my favorite small guns that I have owned. Real sights and a pleasant trigger. Just a hair larger than the Ruger LCP/Kel-TecP3ATs. Fun gun to take to the range and that's saying something for a gun that small.

    Ruger MKIII Stuck

    RC is right, the hammer strut is stuck. Try wrapping the barrel with a towel and then while holding the trigger depressed, bang the barrel on a hard surface like the floor or a table. Keep trying to pull the mainspring housing out after each couple of blows. Don't worry, this is doable and does...

    Apex Trigger Kit for 642....advice?

    I had the Apex kit installed on my 642 shortly after purchase and it was money well spent. Made the pistol much easier to shoot accurately. Mine was also very reliable with no history of light primer strikes.

    While jogging...

    Check out pistol wear. I wear a PT-2 when I run. I normally carry either a snub nose revolver or my S&W Shield with no problem. I also use my SmartCarry some, but find the Pistol Wear chafes less.

    Will I notice 2 oz of difference in a carry pistol?

    I would suggest consider investing in another deep concealment holster like the SmartCarry and be able to wear the .45 and an extra magazine. I am wearing one today under a suit and tie while at work. Very comfortable and very much concealed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Why did you buy your AR?

    I bought mine in January, after it became apparent where all of this might lead. My grandfather died from wounds he received in WW II in order that I might live my life as a free man, and without fear of evil men dictating what guns I may or may not own. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    S&W M&P SHIELD On a scale of 1-10

    I have been a Glock guy or over 20 years. After buying and shooting the Shield two weeks ago, I like the Shield well enough that I picked up a nice used M&P45 this week. Combine this with my j frame and it appears I have become quite a fan of the S&W brand. I give the Shield very high marks.
