    Coming soon..."Worlds smallest 45 auto"

    As an owner of the 9mm version -- recoil is much better than my 3" XD SubCompact pistol. My wife thinks the Boberg has less recoil than her 4" XD full-size. Trigger feel is fairly smooth, feels like a double-action. Customer Service is excellent as well. I live in Minneapolis and was able to...

    How do you sell a gun?

    Most times, we just meet at a Wal-Mart parking lot. Well lit, lots of security cameras, and most folks there don't look twice at folks looking at a firearm in the back of the vehicle.

    Springfield XD-357

    For $250? Buy it - now. Great deal for that price. I and my wife both own XDs, as does her uncle. His is a .357 Sig and he's been very happy with it.

    1911 suggestions

    I'd recommend looking at the Springfield 1911 Loaded. If you look, you should be able to find one in your price range.

    Ruger LCR sights

    I also picked up the XS sight. Pretty easy to install myself (and I am definitely not a gunsmith).

    Introducing others to shooting for the first time(share some stories!)

    Took a friend from work out to the range. She's never fired anything before, but wanted to try it out. After starting her out with a .22 rifle, we moved on to the .22 pistol, .38 k-frame revolver, my wife's XD and my 1911. She did great -- safely handled the everything with only the...

    What's the gun in the average "one gun household?"

    At first, my folks had a one gun household -- the only gun was Dad's .22 rifle that he had as a kid. Then there were two guns, when my grandfather gave me his .22 rifle that he had used as a kid. So, I'm going to go with a .22 rifle as most common.

    Bulk Target Ammo...where do you buy?

    I end up buying a lot from bulkammo.com. They typically have competitive pricing and run specials pretty regularly. One of the items I really like is you can sort the products based on $/round which lets you easily see the best deal.

    Springfield XD

    $390 is a good price for a new XD -- I've seen used XDs go for that much. My wife bought one and I liked it so much, I got one of my own.

    Dads guns he left for me.

    It's amazing what ties those old firearms have to our loved ones. My cousin and I each have one of our grandfather's old rifles -- he has a 30-30 lever action. A buddy had asked him if he ever wanted to sell it. My cousin's response? "There's only one other person who's going to own it and he's...

    Pick a Revolver from TV or Movie

    From Criminal Minds - Dr Reid's 3" S&W 65.

    "American Guns" TV show.....

    I'm thinking user error. Given that some of them would have been better off throwing the pistol at the targets, I'm guessing there is limp-wristing happening.

    Crime show guns

    I've read in some articles that Dr Reid uses a revolver because Matthew Gray Gubler ( the actor who plays Dr Reid) likes "vintage" things and wanted to have Reid like more vintage things. He felt the revolver was more vintage and fit with his style more.

    unlimited

    I'd finally pick up that DL-44 I've been wanting. Or... I'd start with a Thompson and an M3 grease gun and go from there.
