Does the Utah course contain range time and handling exercises?

About 18 months ago I took the one day Act 235 renewal class. I did not know the instructor personally but he was a retired LEO. The majority of people in the class were also retired LEO's working various jobs and getting their renewals. For this reason the Instructor felt comfortable with...

Cabelas in PA I was in the Cabela's in Hamburg, PA last weekend. They had Glock model 19 and 26's on sale for $499. Thats a good price for Cabela's. I'm curious about the show too.

Would like to get an action/trigger job and a front XS sight put on a SW J-frame in SE PA area.

Yup.Sounds like we're thinking along the same lines. I also looked at the Taurus 731UL as a alternative and Lo and Behold they were no longer available. I just got an e-mail from Buds Gun shop. They have a few 431PD's and are charging $378-a good price but I've already bought this used one...

I've been thinking about one of these for a year. I don't own anything in .32 and was doing some research on it but wasn't in a big hurry. However it has been discontinued and the prices of the few around have shot up. In addition I read a review on Gunblast that I really enjoyed. It didn't...

Texas The applicable law is TGC 411.205: Yes you have a duty to inform and it shows up when they run you thru the system.

I cannot get to Casullarms web site any longer. Can someone point me in the right direction or has something happened to the company?

I've owned a few Detective Specials and like them a lot. I'm looking at the airweight versions. I see them pop up on the sites and in stores. I'm trying to see the real difference between the Agent and Cobra. The Agent is described as a Cobra with a shorter grip frame-but the newer Cobra has a...

Commando First chance I had to repond to everyone. I thank you all for the information. For some reason I thought it was a D frame but reading the comments reminded me of the brief D frame Commando Colt made back in the 80's. Now that I know the correct grip size it is no problem-I see grips...

I am getting one of these from a neighbor that belonged to her deceased Dad. Its gray with a four inch barrel and exposed ejector rod. I found some skimpy info. online on this model. I'm trying to figure out what type of grips it takes-early D frame maybe. The owner put these plastic imitation...

How long do night sights last? I remember years back reading that the half life of the radioactive element used in making them was short but can't remember much more. I'm seeing some pistols popping up at stores/shows and online sites that are older and have them thats why I'm asking.

Another interesting thing is that the trigger is glassy smooth almost as if the finish gave it a trigger job.

I'm posting this in the revolver forum cause the finish is on a Detective Special but guess it could be on anything. My father liked Colt firearms and is no longer here. One of his favorites was the Det, Special and Cobras. I have one that was refinished with something he told me was teflon with...

How about this? How about the casull .22 ? I confess to never having seen one inthe flesh but the Gun Mags use to have ads for it. The trigger folds-not the grip but maybe someone could figure out how to do that also. http://www.casullarms.com/handguns1.htm
