    What Solvent and Oil Do You Use?

    Hoppe's #9 for basic cleaning including corrosive ammo, nd ballistol for lube. For barrels that are heavily fouled with copper, I use Wipe Out. It is expensive, and takes time to work, but I've never seen a more effective copper remover.

    Marlin 795 experiences?

    I love mine! Saw it in the Gander Mountin catalog a couple of years ago for 99.00 and thought "a semi-auto marlin with a resyn stock micro-groove rifling(of course) and a 7-round mag...you can't miss". I was right. Probably the best, most useful 100.00 I've ever spent on a gun. The trigger could...

    Looking for input about Beretta 85BB .380

    That's good info to have since I have not fired BB through it in the dark, I only know that they advertise it as low flash. I have, on the other hand, fired the 357 (a model 28-2, not 28B as I mistakenly mentioned) in the dark many times and the flash is considerable with full power loads I am...

    Looking for input about Beretta 85BB .380

    Yeah, I think that's what I'll end up doing. I've been shooting that model 28 for a long time now, and don't mind saying that I'm pretty proficient with it. Cor-bon and Buffalo Bore both offer some prretty good .38+p loads that I might check out. Buffalo Bore claims to use a bullet that expands...

    Difference between BDA and Beretta 85 series ?

    Thanks for all the info guys. Especially the comparison photo. I knew there had to be some connection between the two...they are just too similar.

    Looking for input about Beretta 85BB .380

    Actually, I shoot the.357 pretty well. It's a great pistol, a model 28b, and I've had it for years. My reason for thinking about the switch to .380 is the tremendous noise and muzzle flash the .357 will produce if I would ever have to fire it in my home in the dark. I wonder if I could see well...

    Difference between BDA and Beretta 85 series ?

    I've been reading the posts on .380's, and the Browning BDA seems to come up a lot. It looks an awful lot like my Beretta (minus the trademark open slide). What gives? I mean...They look almost exactly alike!

    Looking for input about Beretta 85BB .380

    I just inherited a Beretta 85BB .380. I've already put a couple hundred rounds through it and have to say I love it. I'm seriously considering replacing my 357 with this as my primary bedside HD pistol. The .357 is a little more than I need in my house where the longest shot I would be taking at...
