    What's your favorite 1911?

    Favorite is my Alchemy Custom Weaponry's Prime Classic Carry in 38 Super. My second is my Springfield Armory TRP.

    If you could have only one handgun, what would you choose?

    Can’t decide between my Springfield TRP 45acp or my Beretta 92 Elite LTT.

    Anyone reload for the .358 Winchester?

    I use Benchmark powder and 200 grain Hornady's. Shoots great in mine. Mine is a custom Remington 722 originally in 300 Savage.

    Recommend me an ankle revolver please

    I carry a Ruger LCR in a Desantis ankle rig with the support strap. The LCR is easier for me to carry with the crimson trace laser grips as they are a little smaller than the standard Hogues.

    Colt Working to Bring New DA Revolver(s) to Market

    If they ever do make a double action revolver, I'm betting on a new version of the Magnum Carry. I love my D frames and would buy a new one in a second.

    Will ruger come out with a 3 inch lcr

    Ruger is a business. I think they will make a polymer revolver in any configuration they think they can sell. I would be surprised if we don't see longer barrels and larger frames.

    S&W Model 69

    I too am interested in a range report. Fondled the gun at LGS. Felt and looked nice.

    38 special or .380?

    I carry one of my colt snubbys IWB at about 4 o'clock. With the right holster and belt it's an easy carry and an untucked shirt or t-shirt covers it fine. I see no need for a smaller gun. I have found that I shoot the colts much better than my LCR or J frame and they are only slightly...

    Rossi m92 44 mag: can I shoot 44 special?

    Recently purchased a Rossi 92 in 44 Mag. Ran about 30 rounds of 44 special through it. Cycled and fired fine no problems. And these Were Semi-Wadcutters which sometimes cause problems in lever guns.

    What should I feed to my .44 special Vaquero?

    I agree with CraigC. the .44 special Blackhawk and Vaquero is strong enough for the Elmer Keith load, which is a 150 grain SWC at 1200 fps. He developed that load in Colt SAA's and S&W hand ejectors, the Ruger guns are stronger that either of those. Also, in Handloader Magazine #236 and #260...

    Hardest kicking gun you've ever shot?

    The Hardest Kicker I've fired 300 Win Mags, 338's, a lightweight 375 H&H, and 12 gauge shotguns with plastic butt plates; but none of those kicked as hard as my Rossi 92 .454 Casull with heavy Buffalo Bore Ammo. At only 5 pounds that little sucker really smacks you.:eek:

    Favorite pistol/revolver to shoot?

    Revolver: Ruger Blackhawk Flattop .44 Special Pistol: Can't decide between my Glock 21 (45 acp) and Glock 23 (40 SW):D

    Glock 23 S & W 40 cal.

    Seems pretty mild to me. I just bought a Glock 23 Gen 4. This thing is a pussycat with 180 grain loads. Has a different feel than my Glock 21 45 acp but the recoil is not a problem. Now, my Ruger Blackhawk 45 colt with buffalo bore heavy loads kicks!! We call those loads butt stompers (and its...

    Is Desert Eagle a good gun for protection in the woods?

    If I had a pack mule to carry it it would be perfect.:neener::neener:
