I'm such a boring "stock" kinda guy with my guns. I might change out grips and sights but that's about it.

A few months ago I took my 15 yr old daughter to the range for the first time. She has only shot BB gun rifles and pistols. Long story short. She shot my Ruger MK2 22lr pistol first. No jams. Then she shot my Glock 17 with no jams. Then she shot my Kahr K9, no jams. Then her first shot with...

I like my 270 My 30-06 is my medium / long range deer and bear gun. I buy heavier weight bullets, either 180gr or 220gr and feel confident out to maybe 200 yards on any bear or deer in PA My 270 with the lighter loads is a great long range varmint / deer round. I buy the lighter rounds in...

pokersamuria nailed it If you have $500 to spend don't even think about Taurus or Rossi...You are in used S&W and Ruger territory now. My favorite S&Ws are the K frames. (model 19,65,66s) My favorite Rugers are the security sixes. Do your homework and you'll find out those are some of the best...

My 2cents worth My smallest mouse gun for self defense is a Kel Tek P3AT. Its not that much larger or heavier than the NAA revolvers. It also reloads much, much quicker. Many, many moons ago I read a magazine article about ways to practice at the range. One article that always applies to...

Another vote for the Glock 29SF....I just picked one up a couple months ago and added the pinky extensions on all 5 mags....Thats what I carry when hiking with the family in bear country... Glock 27 set up the same way would be my runner up... I feel the airweight 41s and 44s are just...

Mine Colt 1911A1 commander was my forth First was a S&W 686 357mag in 1992.... Second was a NEF 22lr revolver in 1992.. Third was a Taurus PT99 9 mil in 1993.. Forth was a Colt 1991A1 commander late 1993... Rich

The SIG MOSQUITO and WALTHER P22....TIED I've never owned either of these handguns but really,really wanted too,,BAD... I never buy anything new until there are reports out and everything looks good..I waited patiently,,read reviews and seen both models shoot at my range.....Neither could...

Evolved to smaller handguns These are what I used to carry..(Sig239 in 40,,Glock 19,23,,Ruger P89 and a Ruger 4 inch security six 357mag.... Here is what I carry now....(Kel-Tek P3AT,,S&W 342 airlite TI,,Glock 26 and Glock 36......I've recently added a Kahr MK9 and a Kahr K9 to the stable as...

Alot to ask out of one caliber At first I was going to say the 10 mil...Then you wanted to buy it everywhere in the USA so I was thinking 357 mag... Then you want it to work in autos and revolvers? You got me there.. For one round thats sold everywhere..Good for defence against 2 legged...

Missing a 9 mil and a 22 ( In my opinion) A good 22 or a 9 milimeter.. With small hands I'd recommend a Ruger semi-auto 22 Mk 11 or 2245....OR----A single action 22/22mag For small hands with a 9 milimeter I'd recommend a single stack made by Sig..(P6,225,239) or Kahr (T-9 K-9) or a 1911...

My Glock 34

Revolver Specifically one of my Airlite models..342 Airlite Ti (no lock) would probably be the last one I'd sell...

My Bushmaster H-bar hasn't given me any troubles at all...Two-three years ago the Bushys were the cats ass...Now their old news and others are better...Yada,Yada,Yada My Bushmaster works just fine.. Rich

The gunshows in my area had the P1s priced LESS than the P38s..P1s were $299 and P38s were $350.. Everything was new/mint looking,,2 mags,,military holster and cleaning kit..My P38 looked brand new... This was also "last" year..Haven't been to a show since...I'm due.. Rich
