I've shot lots of 22lr over the years and had lots of duds, it's just expected with that round. It's also why I would not feel safe carrying it, I've seen some 22mag revolvers at the stores recently. I don't have as much experience with them. Is 22 mag any more reliable than 22lr? It seems like...

I know the P30 has a certain collectable quality to it with some of the rimfire guys. I know it's been out of production for awhile too. A local store took one in on consignment recently. I saw it but didn't look it over too closely. It looks good, has a low serial number. The owner is asking...

I have a chance to buy one of these at a really cheap price. It's just the gun, mag, and one box of ammo. I've been offered it for $150. I'm told it's somewhat collectible but I also don't really see much use for it other than fending off attacks by gerbils. I haven't looked up the price of...

A local shop got one of these in today. It has a stainless finish, 357mag, 2.5" barrel, rubber grips. It's $350. I looked at it, didn't like the grips too much. Anyone know what other grips might fit it? Also, what do you think of the revolver in general? What kind of reputation does it have?

We are having a gun show in town this weekend. It's a Friday and Saturday show, instead of the usual Sat/Sun because of the holiday. We seem to be cursed in this town, every good place that would host a gun show here has either been sold or shut down. We have finally had the local VFW hall host...

I was looking at a single action revolver in .357 at the gun store today. It's a Taylor's model, I think I saw the Uberti name on it. It's a 4.75" barrel with a bird's head grip. I've never owned or shot a revolver with that grip before. Handling it, I wasn't sure how steady the grip would be...

Does anyone shop at a gun store that cleans handguns they take in on trade? I worked in a store quite a few years ago that was run by a guy who did. He didn't do a deep cleaning, but he made the gun look clean for people who were inspecting it. I can't think of a single store around here that...

A local shop had some new APX models on closeout. I picked up a brand new Centurion 9mm for $329. It's a nice feeling gun, good ergo's, Beretta quality. I'm surprised these aren't more popular. It may be a week or two before I can get it to the range but I look forward to shooting it.

I started out this week finding a really nice Ruger Blackhawk, 357, 3 screw old model. It dates to 1970. I rarely see old 3 screw Rugers anymore. The shop even came down on their price for me, so I felt like I got a good deal. I stopped at another shop yesterday looking for a good holster for...

I mentioned elsewhere that I picked up a new KelTec P17 recently. They have an MSRP of $199, which is what I got it for. I've seen them over $350 on Gunbroker. Thankfully, my local shop is not so greedy. I took mine to the range today, I only took 200 rounds, 100 CCI MiniMags, 100 Win 40gr HP...

I found a store with about 6 boxes of Win. 555 22lr. They had it priced at $75. I looked it up on some online sites after I got home. Two that had prices listed were at $35. I'm glad I didn't buy any. I can't wait for this ammo shortage to be over!

I traded into a nice used Range Officer yesterday. It's the Commander sized 9mm, with the case, all the accessories, etc. I've never been into 1911's that much but this one just called out to me. It may be awhile before I get to shoot it. We've had some rain, which is supposed to turn to snow...

Anyone here use Armslist? Are you having trouble getting on it today? I tried at my house and at work and it was very slow or didn't load a page at all. I know demand is strong at gun stores right now, do you think online shopping is slowing it down?

I picked up a new carry gun today, the Glock 48. It's basically a Glock 19, but in single stack. It has 2 10rd mags. It has a very nice feel to it. The slim profile and light weight make it easy to carry. I just got it, haven't been able to get out yet and shoot it. Any owners here? How do you...

I found a shop that has about 5 Ruger American pistols for sale. The owner says most are new, he has 2 that are marked used. I noticed they all have the silver barrel on them. I know there's a recall and Ruger is putting black barrels on them. Shouldn't new ones also have black barrels? I don't...

Have any of you received the email from Fort Scott Munitions yet? They are offering to buy, and pay shipping, for customers unneeded supplies. They mostly want primers, powder and cases. I guess they got my name from one of the places I've ordered mags and grips from, I don't buy from Fort...

I was in a shop getting a sight put on one gun when I spotted a very nice P89DC in the case. I looked it over, they told me it was a recent trade in, nothing extra, just the gun and mag. The price tag was $199. I couldn't pass it up. At home I checked it out, it's a 1993 model. I tried to take...

I stopped at a gun shop that usually only carries tactical stuff, black rifles, Glocks, etc. Today they had some consignment stuff and I found a Sig P226. It's marked "Made in W. Germany". It has holster wear but is in very nice shape. The guys tell me it belonged to a retired local policeman...

I picked up a used TP9 Elite at my local shop today. It only came with one 15rd mag. I have seen that they are available on Century's site, but does anyone know if the 18rd mags fit this gun? I've owned a TP9SA before and really liked it. The Elite is a little smaller, has a nice blacked out...

I've started getting emails from this group recently. In fact, one comes about every other day. It all looks legit, but I never had contacted them myself, somehow they found me. Anyone here belong to this group? It's a concealed carry group. Are they good?
