    Possible new twist on 9mm vs. .45

    But a 9mm typically holds 60% more ammo. Now what?

    The link above takes you to Bud's Gun Shop, which included shipping in their price. You should be able to buy it, transferred, for less than $700.

    Using motor oil on guns.

    I started using regular ol' motor oil recently. I'm done trying to find the best of the best when it comes to guns. Eventually I'll mix up a quart of that STP/ATF, which should last me long enough to hand down to my children.

    Sounds like you've made up your mind. Let us know how it goes when you try it.

    Let me guess, those dropping out are also running for reelection. Coincidence?

    Do you reload?

    I only reload 38 special, though I shoot 9mm as well. Started about two years ago before the panic. I'd seen what happened in 2009, and knew it'd happen again. Thanks to all the helpful people on these forums, I got started with a single stage press, and online supplies. I bought 1000pc of brass...

    What is your preferred method of field stripping SFA pistols?

    I believe you can also pull the trigger on the M&P instead of manually flipping the disassembly lever. As far as easiest gun to disassemble, I'd say the Beretta/Taurus 92 button and lever feature is pretty easy. They can be disassembled with one hand if you had to.

    Finally, a Lady Lilac LC9,,,

    Very nice. I might pick up a Raspberry SR22 for my wife or daughter to use. I just showed them your picture, and they both liked the LC9's color better. I hope they eventually make a Lilac SR22.

    New Colt 1911 colt stamp... ugly?

    Then it'd be a burrito. It does look a bit silly. Then again, it's a colt, so it's technically a baby horse. Now if it was a Stallion, it'd be really bad.

    A problem with my new Ruger.

    I changed out the main spring for a 10 or 9lb Wolff spring. I bought the pack that contains four? different springs, including the trigger return spring. Never had a problem with light strikes or misfires. I didn't change out the trigger return spring, and my wife has an easier time pulling the...
