It's the only .32 I have but I recently got my hands on a CZ 83 in .32 and I love it, especially the sights and the trigger, so I'll nominate that one! So far it's run great for me but I've only put about 150 rounds through it. Out of curiosity USP9, what are the issues with the model...

The frame came in the mail a few days ago but I had to wait until today for the cylinder before I could share it with you guys. It's a Smith & Wesson 14-3 that I picked up for €175. According to the serial number it's from 1971. Here it is alongside my MR-73 There's a bit of...

Well, I've had a couple people on a Swiss / French gun forum tell me that the 3" gendarmerie model was rare and I'd never seen one before while the 4" and 5 1/4" models are a relatively common sight. It might not be the rarest, though. Manurhin sold the rights (and the machines) for the MR-73...

@mjackson: I imagine they must, although this is the only magnum I've ever shot, so that's just a guess:D @mio: I was surprised they were out, too. Unfortunately gas stations don't carry ammo over here!:rolleyes:

Managed to round up some .357 (S&B 158gr FMJ) and was able to get to the range half an hour before closing. Shot a few cylinders worth of .38 special and then figured I'd try out the .357 before I had to go. This is what I managed single action freehand at 25m. I'm sure I can do a lot...

Thanks for the comments, guys. @HGM22: Nope, I live in France so they're pretty easy to find on the used market now that most police carry SIGs. @mjackson: I found this one on a French equivalent of Gunbroker and had it sent to my local gun shop while I waited for my paperwork to come...

I've been told the 3" with adjustable sights is rather rare. Most of the 3" models had fixed sights with the rear sight cut into the frame, like this

Just picked up my first revolver, a 3" Manurhin MR-73 in .357 mag with adjustable sights and Trausch grips. Picked it up used for €300. It's got a few nicks here and there but the bore is good and mechanically it's in decent shape. A couple snapshots: The business end Manurhin stamp...

+1 Setting someone up to hurt themselves and/or bystanders is pretty poor.

:rolleyes:

Thanks for your replies. I certainly hope she stays keen. The target is now hanging in her room ;)

Took my 7-year-old daughter to the range for the first time. She shot my .22 lr CZ 452 varmint from a support and did a pretty good job. Most importantly she really liked it. After a few minutes she was working the bolt and loading the mags (under Dad's watchful eye of course). Now she's...

In this week's edition of The Economist you'll find the following statements in an article in the "Leaders" section called "The blame game" about the Tucson shootings. The right target, ever further away Opportunists who seek to gain political advantage by blaming the shootings on words...

Chapuis took over making MR-73s after Manurhin went belly up so they'd be the ones to contact in case of any future breakages. It'd be a real shame for that revolver to become a paper weight! Here's a link to their contact form on their website...

This guy's tried it, and expansion doesn't seem great. Test on youtube with a 686

Like others have said, a sound-proofing tunnel is pretty quick to whip up (if it's a noise issue). This is what a local club did on their 300m range. Just three frames lined with rockwool sheets and works pretty well. http://apto.centerblog.net/rub-equipements-.html

Well, if I got my act together I'd just reload. Yup, no limits on reloading. Or if you only shoot a few thousand rounds a year a lot of guys buy a few junk guns for peanuts to up their allotment (1000 rounds per class one weapon per calendar year). How do these rules reduce crime you ask...

Nice! Embarrassed any AR's with your cheap commie gun yet? :D

Well I was out at the range on Sunday and the SAI performed flawlessly. I have to admit I was a bit apprehensive on the first shot after reading horror stories about baffle strikes (even though I had run a rod down the suppressor and the barrel to check alignment before). It shot a good 5cm...

The mind boggles. There's a rule over here that's just as asinine: it bans smoothbore pump action shotguns... wait for it ... but not pump guns with a rifled bore. So everybody either buys a semi-auto smoothbore or a Maverick 88 with a rifled bore.:banghead:
