    Help! (Reassembly advice requested, no longer needed)

    I just acquired a 9mm ASP and attempted to field strip it and can’t get the slide back on. Pretty embarrassing. . I clean all my guns regularly and I wanted to oil the ASP before I took it to the range. I can get the ejector down, but it stuck beyond that point. Any help would be appreciated!

    9mm Asp…got my grail gun!

    Been waiting for 20 years, ever since I read an article about the Asp, and I finally got one! If anybody has experiences or advice about this pistol, I’d appreciate the insights! I know a lot about it creator Paris Theodore, and any other info would be great.

    Does Glock 43 slide fit on Glock 48 frame?

    Any help would be appreciated! The thought of having the ability to make a 43x or 48 short grip is intriguing. Thanks.

    Girsan MC 14T .380 Tilt Barrel Pistol

    Just saw this pistol. Looks really interesting. Obviously an inexpensive copy of Beretta 86, but with a 13 round magazine capacity. https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/eaa-announces-the-new-girsan-mc-14t-380-tilt-barrel-pistol/

    Little comparison!

    Just a couple pictures comparing the Smith 36 and Charter Arms .44 Bulldog. Never realized how close in size these 2 pocket rockets were!

    Beretta Storm Subcompact 9mm mags

    Help! I’ve bought 2 Beretta Storm subcompact flush fit mags and I can’t get more than 6 rounds in either! I’ve been loading mags for years so I know how to do it. Anybody know if this is a common occurrence?

    New acquired Interarms PPK question

    Hey, I just won a nice blued Interarms PPK in .380 off GB. Any ammo recommendations? What to avoid? Much appreciated!

    Double action CSX?

    Anybody else want Smith to put out a double/single action CSX? Another way to look at it would be a higher capacity CS9. I’d also appreciate a more straightforward field strip of the pistol. Maybe even decocker only if I’m reaching for the stars! . Thoughts?

    Sig pistols issue

    I really like the quality, reliability and most of the features of Sig pistols. However, I really struggle with inadvertently hitting slide release with standard hold. Anyone else have this issue?

    Taurus PT22 Poly magazine

    Alright, nobody torch me. It’s not my carry pistol but I like this little pistol and I’d like to get an extra mag. Any idea where I can track one down? eBay and Gunbroker came up dry. Thanks.

    Popularity because of good product placement

    Weird question, but do you think some pistols succeeded because of good product placement? Examples include, Walther PPK (Bond), Smith 29 (Dirty Harry), Beretta 92 (Die Hard, Lethal Weapon). And this is not to say that these are good guns, but they’re not head and shoulders above other...

    New Barkeep!

    Funky looking thing! Not sure what it’s good for, maybe snakes with shot loads? Still, probably fun as hell to shoot! https://www.americanrifleman.org/content/new-for-2022-heritage-mfg-barkeep-boot/

    Switch Revolver

    Pretty cool! https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/range-day-standard-manufacturings-switch-folding-pocket-revolver/

    Idea for Ruger

    They should consider selling the LCP Max and LCP 2 in .22lr as a combo. About the same size and weight. Also has same capacity and trigger. You’d get a nice trainer/plinker and you’d be more familiar with a more formidable carry gun.

    Possible end to my CCW journey!

    It’s been a long, twisting journey to settle on a CCW pistol that combines capacity, accuracy, and caliber in a design that is readily concealable FOR ME. Finally, the P365 SAS seems to have fit the bill. I’ve become accustomed to the sites, and I’ve become pretty proficient out to 10 yards.

    Hotel gun

    Kind of odd question, but does anyone change their gun or load if you are staying in a hotel? Obviously, over penetration could be an issue. Appreciate any insight folks offer.

    The gun James Bond needs to carry

    I love the PPK, but this is the modern Asp, and Q needs to hook Bond up with this heater. https://www.crossbreedholsters.com/blog/asp-to-p365-sas/

    Double action NAA?

    I have a couple NAAs, and I really like them for casual carry. I was handling my Pug (no snarky jokes), and I wondered why they’ve never made one in double action. It wouldn’t have to be as small as a typical NAA to be a great concealed carry option. Has anyone else wondered why North...

    Second gun vs backup magazine?

    I recently noticed that my NAA .22 magnum is smaller and weighs less than the second mag I routinely carry for my regular ccw. I got me thinking, does it make more sense to carry a second smaller gun than a second mag? I know that some will say carry both, but I’ve only got so much room to...

    I want Beretta to make a new pocket pistol

    I had a Beretta 21 and have a Beretta 418. I noticed that when shooting the 21, when I got a feed jam and popped the barrel to clear it, the slide popped up rendering the gun inoperable. The 21 doesn’t have an extractor, so clearing round can result in a bad situation. The 418 has an extractor...
