    What Has Happened To The Genitron Website?

    Genitron sight worked for me but info left something to be desired. I looked up the HK P7M8 and found that the frame was "integrated polymer" (it's steel), a fundamental error.

    Academy has the r51 in store only $399.99

    Nope, Smith has a one year warranty. Batting 0 for 3 on that one. Smith does have a lifetime service policy after that year.

    Foot-Pound Energy: what is it?

    Maybe not so much with handguns but velocity, bullet weight,are important factors in knowing where the bullet is going to hit compared to point of aim.

    How to eliminate wrist break/flinch.

    I know you mean well, too but you've offered no optional charts and there are none I've seen online. The ubiquitous correction charts are essentially correct. There is a two handed version which I've seen but haven't yet found online. I know where I saw it and I'll try for a scan or photo. In...

    Lanyards

    To retain a tool, knife, or handgun, mason's chord works pretty well, or thin nylon, about 1/8th inch, rawhide lacing, too. Clip to a belt loop if you want something to give way. Para-cord and nylon in general work just fine if you want something to stay with you and vice versa.

    Lanyards

    Make your own: Cobra Knot (Solomon Bar or Portuguese Sinnet) Lanyard (Diamond) Knot Make the loop big enough to secure the lanyard through the eye using a Cow Hitch (Lanyard Hitch) using Loops

    Concealment garment/vest for CCW and IDPA?

    5.11 Tactical Shirts, long & short sleeves. A bit pricy but comfy. Better prices available. The darker colors obscure the 'hidden document pockets" better than the lighter colors do.

    Best Cal. for a S.D. Handgun?

    I had this for a while and, foolishly, sold it. I lucked out on another one some years later and another, later model (PXT Carry LDA), a month or so. Both do carry duty in rotation with a S&W 642 and S&W Bodyguard 38 depending on season, depth of pockets, and social environment. It is a bit...

    Very Specific Criteria

    I'd recommend any of these: H&K P7 PSP (1st photo), P7M8, P7M13 "squeezecocker" pistols. However, none are in current production and they were not manufactured in the U.S. Hard to improve upon. All shots are single action. The ejector doubles as a tactile and visual loaded chamber indicator...

    Heres how i grip it, now im ready for yall to rip it

    What you show in the original post is a variation of what Massad Ayoob calls the Crush Grip I use it. However, I'd add an acronym of an observation of a resource economist I knew, TANORW: There Ain't No One Right Way.

    What is the difference between a Sig P-230 and a Sig P-232?

    The 232 I had was stainless throughout, had Hogue finger groove grips, and three-dot night sights. SA/DA. Like this:

    Is one-hand shooting a legitimate stance?

    One handed all the way: U.S. Army Marksmanship Unit Pistol Marksmanship Training Guide. More than you wanted to know.

    Striker VS Hammer VS Revolvers VS Handguns VS compact VS subcompact

    These are pretty quick to field strip. Both are striker fired with repeated strike capability. SA/DA, Decock: H&K P9S I find the video's sound annoying. All Shots SA if you hold the cocking lever back. Releasing the cocking lever decocks the gun. All shots DA if you hold the trigger back and...

    P7 or S&W Centennial?

    You can pretty much always get a Centennial, there's bunches of 'em on Gus America and Gunbroker, just to mention two sites. P7s are increasingly less available and increasingly more expensive. I'm biased by my P7 M8 but it is one of the most efficient guns to handle and very accurate as well.
