    Guess I have all I want...

    Considering the ATF guy stopped by my local FFL and doing the routine book check... he saw my name enough to inquire about what I might be doing... guess I have all the guns I need. Won't be selling or trading any, either. Oh, well... :mad:

    Way OT, I know, but Dad is gone.

    I know this will probably be closed in short order, but for those who knew him because of me: http://www.tennessean.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070829/ENTERTAINMENT01/70829056 Dad has finally gone home. The only thing incorrect is that it wasn't a "long illness." He fell Friday, and...

    Gun Theft, Nashville

    Last night, Rabbi's shop was broken into. They got away with 9 different handguns. When I can get a list, I'll post it. www.eastsidegunshop.com

    CZ glossy blue...

    I have an older CZ compact with the glossy blue finish, and it is a really deep, gorgeous blue. I guess years of polishing (before me) helped it get that way. I have a newer CZ 75 B that's glossy, but it lacks the lustre of the older one. What can I use to bring out that higher smooth shine...

    Glock price check?

    Found a G 17 with night sights and a Robar grip reduction... strange to look at, but it sure points more naturally. Is $429 fair? It's not a Gen 3... don't know if it was 1 or 2 before the conversion...

    SIG markings?

    Guys, what do the markings on my SIG P226 slide bottom just in front of the dustcover mean? It looks like a kind of insect shape, then a candleabra type shape with downswept lines to the sides, a very tiny N under that, then KE. It is a West German gun, U 501 5**. Thanks in advance...

    Trigger finger placement

    Guys, teach me. I have to admit, I don't get to shoot as much as I want to, and haven't been at it a lifetime, either. I know the SA 1911 trigger (what I shoot best) is to be used with the pad of the finger. With the limited experience I have with other pivoting style triggers whether SA or...

    DA pull...

    Picked up a Kel-Tec PF-9 the other day. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but dry fired some. My question is, while not nearly as bad a trigger as the P-11, why does trigger pull for DA have to be soooo long? It would still be safe, I think, at the weight it is with the hammer falling about...

    P9 mag release?

    Just picked up my Springfield P9 CZ clone, and the mag release is set up for a lefty. Can I turn it around to the other side myself, or do I need to take it to a pro? Anyone know how to do this?

    What an odd feeling...!

    I awoke today, logged on, made my usual stops, here, there, started looking at the auction/sale sites just to see what's out there... and I suddenly realized... every handgun I really wanted I now own! The search for unfulfilled want... just wasn't there. I have acquired: In .45, Colt WWI...

    CZ leather paddle?

    Who makes a leather paddle for CZ type pistols that are similar to the Comp-Tac kydex design? Anybody? I really like the fit and on-off ease of the Comp-Tac, but they don't do leather...

    Blood on stainless?

    Guys... I know what blood does to blueing, I saw that on a couple old guns when I worked in a gun shop... but what does it do to stainless? I ask because of a stainless Kimber I just picked up through a pawn shop. (The number cleared, so I guess it's ok.) I stripped it to clean it, and I had to...

    This 1911 looks counterfeit to me...

    http://gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=62221504 Frame rollmarks look wrong... both serial number, and US Property just look phony. What do the gurus think?

    Experiences with these?

    I've never heard of these, happened across it by chance. Anybody ever mess with one? It's a Sardius Industries SD9. http://www.gunsamerica.com/guns/976695511.htm

    XD Mag prices?

    Guys, I looked at CDNN for XD-45 mags, they're $25 @... is that a good price, or do y'all know a better source? Just thinking ahead... :fire:

    Does weather affect your daily choice?

    I find myself reaching for my XD 45 for CCW on inclement days because of the plastic factor. Usually, I have my CZ with me, though. Does it make a difference with anyone else... or am I just the weirdo my wife says I am? :D
