    Are there any pistols that are close to the size and heft of a Beretta 948 in 9mm?

    SIG P290 probably comes the closest: http://www.sigsauer.com/CatalogProductDetails/p290rs.aspx As someone else mentioned, the Kahr PM9 is probably right behind that: http://www.kahr.com/Pistols/Kahr-PM9.asp I don't remember the details (I sort of stopped following firearms for the last...

    Glock and the U.S. Military

    Which stations? All the NG soldiers (and airmen) I've seen at NY Penn, Newark Penn, and the WTC PATH station have M9's.

    Bought a new Ruger LCR in 9 mm... any questions?

    My LGS says he's got LCR 9mm's in stock, so will try to get one in the next week or so and try both Speer GD 147gr rounds and .380 rounds, see how well they do (in addition to the usual suspects).

    Bought a new Ruger LCR in 9 mm... any questions?

    Okay, I'll ask the obvious stupid question: has anyone tried .380ACP yet through one of these? Only reason I want to know is in case 9mm (even standard/non +P loads) winds up being too stout for the boot grip (which is how I generally carry my KLCR in my pocket or on my ankle as a BUG, with...

    Ruger LCR 9mm: Full Review and Range Report

    Got it...all with the cheap Federal Champion ammo, or different makes of ammo?

    Another LCR .38 v .357 Question

    Sounds like you've made up your mind, which is fine...but just to add one other consideration, the trigger on my KLCR is noticably heavier than the trigger on the .38 LCR that I handled at my LGS. So you'd have that to contend with as well, and it may negate any accuracy advantage you might gain...

    Ruger LCR 9mm: Full Review and Range Report

    Nice vid review. Was that one instance of the bullet jumping crimp and locking up the cylinder the only instance, or did it happen to you multiple times? And what ammo were you shooting when it jumped crimp? Thanks...

    J Frame sized .22lr

    Your wife trumps any/all of our opinions of the LCR .22. :D

    Bought a new Ruger LCR in 9 mm... any questions?

    How's the trigger compared to either the .38 LCR or the .357 LCR? I have the .357 LCR and noticed the trigger is quite a bit heavier than the .38 LCR's...

    from LCP to LC9S

    Surprised no one has mentioned it yet: consider the Springfield XD-S 9mm. No manual safety to deactivate (has the trigger safety and the backstrap safety), and it even has a mag release you can hit with a lefty thumb. A touch thicker than an LC9. Mine is my summer EDC -- 7+1 in the pistol, and...

    Any good basic gun belts around $50?

    +1 -- glad you found what you need. Just in case others are also looking for quality lower-cost belts, here are a couple more options: http://foxxholsters.onlybusiness.com/OnlineCatalog/Gun_Belts-list.aspx http://icestore.us/I-C-E-CLAW-Belts/I-C-E-Claw-RAC-Range-and-Carry-Belt.html

    Browning BDA

    Inherited my father's: Also have a set of Beretta 84 grips for it -- a little less slippery than the original wood grips, and makes it a bit thinner: Mainly sits in the safe because (for some reason) the tang comes back and hits the web of my hand in such a way that it opens the...

    Springfield XD-S post recall

    Have the 9mm version...shot over 200 rounds pre-recall, and over 300 rounds post-recall. Dead nuts reliable so far, and it even chambers empty brass (well, I've only tried with three or four empty cases...was trying to induce failures during one of my range sessions).

    Glock 19 for CC or

    I got my XD-S 9mm back from the recall and put 250 FMJ and 13 JHP trouble-free rounds through it. Swapped out the rear sight to an AmeriGlo block sight (to facilitate one-handed slide-racking), added a Talon Grips decal, and it's riding on my belt as I type. I don't know what your build is --...

    Combat Focus Shooting & Advanced Pistol Handling

    Sorry, didn't mean to make it sound like that was part of the curriculum. The premise is that you're starting in a somewhat compromised position (sitting, kneeling, lying down, etc.) and you're forced to shoot. Once you've shot, you need to work your way to a standing position -- obtain better...

    Combat Focus Shooting & Advanced Pistol Handling

    Dragging this thread back from the dead -- did a search and once I found this, didn’t feel like creating a brand new thread. :) I took the CFS course in March 2011 with Rob Pincus and you can read my AAR here. I just took the APH course taught by Paul Carlson (of Safety Solutions Academy)...

    Springfield XDs Recall

    Didn't see it listed...so until a mod adds it to the list in the sticky: 3.3 XD-S™ SAFETY RECALL Issued August 28, 2013 Springfield Armory® is initiating this voluntary safety recall to upgrade 3.3 XD-S™ 9mm and 3.3 XD-S™ .45ACP pistols with new components, which eliminate the possibility of a...

    Looking for Holster for S&W 910 Help!

    That's it. However... ...just be careful you don't get a thumb-break holster for a 5946 or other DAO pistol. The slide is a little bit longer at the rear, and it'll be loose around your pistol.
