    Is CCI Blazer aluminum case fading away?

    My local shop has plenty but it's only $3 a box less than brass, so I just go with brass. I am saving now to order some ammo online in 9mm because it's not cheap here local. $16.99 for aluminum, $19.99 for brass 50rds fmj. 25rounds jhp are $27. I see it much cheaper online and need to save to...

    I don't use an optic, I do use fiber optic sights.

    anyone carry this way??

    I carry iwb most times but sometimes with tight pants I goowb with a longer shirt. My friend came over the other day to shoot in my back yard and bragged how he bought one of those leather Blackhawk holsters on Ebay for the xds but fits the G3c like a glove. I recently bought several and they do...

    22lr carry for defense??

    I recently bought a Keltec P17 and love the little gun, very accurate and so far flawless in shooting. I carry a G3c 9mm and my wife has also been practicing with my other G3c and she is thinking of carrying soon as well. After shooting the Keltec, she has fell in love with it and now wants to...

    Which one??

    UPDATE: I got a call from my local shop that a black Keltec P17 had come in, I went and looked at it and the others that were within my budget. I decided on the P17 as I was told it was $195 out the door. Got it home and called Keltec as I always like to get extra recoil springs. The nice lady...

    Which one??

    I thought I would post here because of the different models involved. My local shop has a sale on 22lr handguns and just can't seem to decide. The Keltec P17 is $199 and I know thats retail but all local shops and even Rural King near me they are $259. The Ruger Wrangler at $199 as well, The...

    S&W SD9VE 9mm or a Taurus?

    About a year ago I sold a Taurus G2c that had just south of 3000 rounds I put thru it. Not one single failure thru 3000 rounds and I trusted it with my life. I then bought a g3c and it too has been flawless as well as having a better trigger. I liked it so much I now own two G3c's, I have no...

    small nic under feedramp

    I just got to get my second G3c out and shoot it, put just under 50 rounds through it and no failures and real accurate. However while I was cleaning it I found a small nick on the underside of the feedramp. The top of the ramp is smooth all across but just underneath the bottom edge there is a...

    question on extra or replacement parts?

    I have a little extra money left over and wonder about a few parts for my G3c. Has anyone bought the striker stainless assembly from lakeline or an extra regular one replacement from Taurus? I have also looked into extra striker springs or maybe just the striker guide in stainless or the striker...

    Ok, I did a little more work, I guess my ocd got the best of me. I think I have it enough because I don't want to go too far. Here are a few pics of after and thanks.

    What y'all think??

    My question is on the G3c I recently bought, the one I bought and I just didn't notice this at the store is that some polymer flashing or burr was left on the rear of the frame. I was gonna ignore it but my ocd wouldn't let me and it was long enough to snag a little on my nylon type shirts. I...

    Muzzle showing or hidden?

    Recently I bought several holsters for my G3c, some owb and some iwb. All of these have the muzzle of the gun about 3/8" or so up inside the holster. I recently went to a sale and they had some Desantis leather but not molded specific holsters that were good shape and cheap $8 each and frpm what...

    How good are these?

    I agree that some holsters on Amazon are junk, but they have specials on some name brand companies. I recently saw a Bianchi IWB holster that was normaly $80 on special for $22 for a certain model. Most specials of name brands on Amazon are for fit on certain guns, a $100 holster may be only $20...
