    Lipsey's Exclusive Ruger GP-100....?

    Being that I live at the sea shore, stainless would be the smarter direction to take. Everything around here rusts and corrodes like crazy, the Atlantic Ocean out my front door, and the Delaware bay & river out my back door, the air is always salty. I haven't ever really had a problem with any...

    Lipsey's Exclusive Ruger GP-100....?

    I read the review at Gun Blast, and from the sounds of it the trigger weight is about the same as the last GP-100 I owned. The finish reminds me of Colt's Royal Blue on the old Pythons, but some of the close up photos in Jeff Quinn's article showed a couple of rough areas, but for the most part...

    I notice now most of us older guys (50+)

    53 years old, and I enjoy both, but I prefer my guns be made of steel and not plastic. I know the new generation of half plastic semi-autos have proven themselves, have their place, and their use, not knocking them in the least as I've owned one or two in the past. To me there's nothing more...

    Lipsey's Exclusive Ruger GP-100....?

    I'm looking at a Lipsey's exclusive, it's a 4" Ruger GP-100, highly polished blued steel finish with Hogue wood finger grove grips..... Lipsey's has an MSRP of $750.00 on it.... Haven't seen one in any of the local gun shops as yet, was wondering if anyone has one, handled one, seen one up...

    Beretta 92FS / 92A1.....?

    That would be the one thing that I didn't like about the Glock...grip angle... For me, the Beretta fits, and feels good, that carries a lot of bearing on the choice of a handgun, especially one you plan to get a lot of trigger time with. I've been searching for more information concerning...

    Beretta 92FS / 92A1.....?

    I'm well aware this pistol has it's many detractors, but there are those who appreciate it as well. Please don't turn this into a Beretta bash-a-thon, or offer an endless list of "better" choices as I'm looking for educated and well informed information regarding this model firearm.....Thank You...

    The FNP-9, my Newest Favorite...any other opinions?

    I'm presently shopping for a new 9mm, and the FNP-9 is at the top of my list right now. I actually wanted the newer FNX-9, but since it is only offered with a 17 round magazine, it's not legal in the State of New Jersey, the FNP-9 originally being my second choice, now became my first.... I'm...

    Sig 220 SAO (or any Sig 220) anyone? (I need to diversify)

    You can have mine........:scrutiny: It's a very reliable, well built gun, accurate as all hell, easy to break down and clean, but the one I have (da/sa) has a heavy trigger pull, and the grip puts pressure on either a blood vessel or nerve in my shooting hand that causes me to shake after...

    Board Decides: P220 or XD-45 4"

    Well JaxNovice, I hope you're happier with your Sig P220 than I'am with mine...... Don't get me wrong, it's a quality handgun in every aspect, reliable, accurate, easy to break down and clean, and not one FTF, or FTE in 4 to 5 hundred rounds. The problem I'm having with mine is the grip, for...

    My first XD....

    Man I know what you mean IlikeSA.....every time I point my XD-9 Service at the steel plate rack, I keep hitting those 8" steel circles, and knocking them over. It never seems to change, point XD at plate, pull trigger, plate falls over....start again.......:D I was a died in the wool wheel...

    WallyWorld 9mm WWB Ammo Closeout

    The Wally Worlds in South Jersey don't sell ammo...(or guns)....but we do have Dick's Sporting Goods, and another chain called The Sports Authority that sells (fairly) cheap ammo. Dick's is heavy on the Remington-UMC, and Federal American Eagel, while The Sports Authority sells nothing but...

    Bushmaster A2 sight.....?

    I thank you good people for this information. It's just that I didn't notice this until today, and thought I might have lost a pin or screw. My previous AR rifle was a Colt A1, and the sight was built into the handle, this A2 type sighting system is kinda new to me, so I can strike this off...

    Bushmaster A2 sight.....?

    I've got a new Bushmaster XM15 E2S, I've had it to the range and shot it for the third time today, and noticed something odd about the rear sight assembly. The rear sight assembly is a sepperate unit of the top handle, and I never noticed this before, but it seems to move slightly. I cocks to...
