I have a pair of the stainless american, pre-S&W .380's. I love the pistol but it bites me whenever it can and will only function reliably with fmj or corbon powerball. Trigger is rough in da but I shot the State Police combat course with a german-made .32 version and actually qualified...
When Sigs were first marketed in this country as "Brownings" they were horrible ugly blocky unlovely guns as compared the the smooth blue steel and wood of the current handguns of the day. The Sigs didn't change, but the times did. One of my famous quotes, "A plastic gun, hell will freeze over...
Back in the 70's I worked a domestic disturbance where a Vietnamese immigrant popped 6rds. of .22 birdshot at a couple of "homeboys that were stealing his bike from in front of his house". They rode away laughing and we had to take his revolver because he had no ideal of the threshold for deadly...
Just switched to a 10mm Glock with one spare mag and a j-frame smith or walther ppk as BUG. Needed something with a bit more punch than my usual carry.
All of that bs about striking the dog in the ribs and striking them smartly on the head, snout, etc. sounds good on paper. In the late 70's I had my first encounter with a pit bull, it was tearing the throat out of it's second Shepherd and the broad leather collar was only slowing the process. I...
I use the lighter bullets in my contender pistol, also here in OK there are areas where the deer are almost antelope sized and don't take much to harvest.
trigger pull?
Pull on the one I have is not bad and you can put them in the 8 ring at five yards, but that is with .38 special. The way the gun feels you are tempted to put index finger alongside barrel and pull with middle finger. Check finger length! If index finger doesn't excede barrel...
BJT .38 DA Derringer
I went throught the same stage, wanting a derringer, and found one of the DA .38 BJT's. With a good pocket holster it makes a handy hip pocket carry and it is trouble free and reliable. Not a lot of range, but better than most folks would believe. I have had mine in the gun...
I have a bit of a thing for mini-guns and stingers seem to work in everything. The mini-mags are also pretty consistant for me. I have a Beretta Minx in .22 short and it likes CCI products as well. The only problems I seem to have are with ammo that has a lot of lube on it.
Back in the days before the L-frame S&W I carred a nickel M-13 as a duty weapon and it became my favorite carry revolver other than a M-60 that I carred in my boot. I think it is an excellent all-around revolver and feels good in the hand.
There is a difference between hunting and killing. Hunting is the taking of game that is not eager to participate in the process. Killing occurrs when something is trying to tear you a new one and you take your shot at increasingly closer range. In this situation skill and nerve will be the...
I picked up a left-handed 1400 in 12 gauge, mainly because I liked the case that it came with. Dies anyone know if you can reverse the safety back to righty?
Service Department
I have only used the NAA service department one time and that was a long time ago. They were fast and courteous. I had buggered my mini while trying to lighten the trigger and not only did they put it back together, but fixed the trigger pull. They are very patient with...
