    Lucky break: Glock 35 vs Glock 17L

    So I visited a local store a day or two ago and happened into a tough choice: the store had 2 used Glocks of particular note, one was a used 3rd Gen 35 (40 s&w) for $495 and the other, a used 3rd Gen 17L (9mm) for $595. Usage: I currently shoot a pistol league at a local range. I used to...

    1911 patterns in 10mm

    I am currently interested in getting a 10mm as I am a big fan of the caliber. Myself and a buddy were having a discussion and I was looking into a 1911 style pistol in 10mm, he has a Glock 20. He stated he thought that a 10mm chambering for 1911 was a bad idea because it would shoot loose and...

    Trade my P220 for a better match to a G19?

    Backround: The Sig P220 was my first pistol. I like it. I shoot it VERY acturately with little to no effort. A great all around pistol. Around Christmas last year I did something on impulse, I bought a Glock 19 with the nice NIBX finish on the slide. I haven't so much as looked at the Sig...

    Forgetting anything?

    Myself and my friends are all about to buy "assault" or "modern sporting" rifles here in the next month and we have been doing a lot of research on platforms. One guy is probably getting an AR (mp sport due to limited funds most likely). Another is an AK guy but is probably getting a Galil(...

    Non-railed SKS gas tube?

    I have a Norinco SKS that came with the Tapco kit pre installed when I bought it. I originally was going to mount a red dot on it, but I've been having more fun shooting with iron sights. Problem is that the gas tube has a picatinny rail on it, and for some reason, looking through the middle of...

    Shoulder holster for a Bisley?

    I just purchased a Ruger Bisley Blackhawk 5.5" in .45 colt for my first revolver (SUPER excited, the gun is a work of art). Need a good reccomendation on a shoulder holster for it. I would prefer a shoulder holster because I have a belt holster for my Sig 220 and it would be nice to carry both...

    My last range trip scared me a bit...

    Ok so I have a P220 that I like to shoot as I find it relaxing. Well I usually shoot about 50 rounds at 7 yards as a warmup before I work on thing that I need improving on. Im hardly a crack shot, but I shoot well enough (range safety people have noticed). Well as I was shooting my final sets on...

    Magazine scraping?

    Sorry I have a lot of questions, but I had another one I forgot to about. Occasionally when feeding and ejecting magazines they will not easily move in and out. Inserting a magazine, they hang up before they lock into place. Pressing the release sometimes the magazine will only drop about a half...

    Lateral play in slide release?

    I have a KB stamped P220. I ordered a factory parts kit because I bought it used and never replaced any of the springs. I got everything installed ok without any issues really, but something is bugging me. The slide release seems to have a lot of lateral play in it with no magazine in it. I...

    Gun shop ethics. Where to draw the line?

    Ok I my neck of the woods, we have all of 2 places to shop for guns. One is a mom and pop type gun stores with limited hours, but generally friendly folks and so so pricing. The other is a shop has a range attached to it. Other than those two, its an hour to the nearest Cabelas and also involves...

    Help me with my gun ADD...

    As with most people, I have limited funds. I'd love to get a million guns, but alas I cannot. My current HD pistol is an earlier Sig P220. Its a little worn, but functions fine, and has never given me any issues. My accuracy with it is quite good. My problem is twofold. 1. Id love to get...

    Sighting a Norinco SKS

    Just got back from the range. The first time I took my SKS out we didn't get to do a whole lot with it as far as sight setup. This time we had some dedicated sight time, and it wasn't good. The iron sights, at 25 yards, required you to aim the upper right outside edge of the 8 ring to hit the...

    Need a new "fun" gun. Suggestions?

    I have my business angles covered with regards to my firearms (Sig P220 pistol, Nori SKS) with reliable weapons, now I need something that is just out and out fun! Handgun or rifle doesnt mater, just nothing super expensive (like 700 max) but fun to shoot. Not caliber specific because i can get...

    OWB Holster for a P220

    I have been looking for 3 days for a holster for my Sig P220 and have come up blank. I want an OWB open carry holster in black leather that isn't 100 bucks. I'd like to spend around 50 or so but could spend maybe a little more. Everything I've looked at has been inadiquate. I know Galco makes...

    New Nori SKS, questions.

    So I just purchased my first long gun. I was at a Cabelas, and lo and behold they had an SKS in their used guns area. It is a Norinco SKS, with a detachable mag conversion, and some form of Tapco pistol grip/adjustable stock conversion, but I dont think it is the newest one as it doesn't have...

    New Sig P220 owner, questions.

    Just purchased my first fire-arm ever after a LOT of research. I was pretty close to buying a CZ or an FNP, but one of the local shops had a slightly used P220 with pretty decent pricing, and after going back and forth about 5 times over it I purchased it. I am no fire arms expert at all, but I...
