    Are Uberti's Heirloom Quality?

    For longevity without having to replace parts: the Ruger. However, the Uberti is also simple as a brick inside if/when you break a spring. Replace the flat bolt/trigger spring with a replacement wire spring from Wolff and that’ll be the end of that. If the main spring ever breaks, it’s a...

    Uberti Cattleman 12 shot .22

    I have a 12-shot Cattleman in the 4-3/4” barrel, here is my two cents: The good: - Looks fantastic! The case-coloring is superb. Fit and finish is 100% - Holds 12 rounds. This is the reason I bought it, I wanted the max number of 22lr rounds on board possible - Accurate. Shoots POA for me. -...

    Grip chop on a Glock.

    I chopped my G23 for mag versatility and to keep the light rail. Its a 4-caliber gun (with the 22 conversion) and the last pistol I'd get rid of.

    Ruger 9mm/357

    I sent mine in to Ruger for the extra 9mm cylinder in stainless. Sometimes they say "yes" to this request, but most of the time they will say that since a stainless 357/9mm convertible has never been cataloged they won't do a stainless cylinder. I got lucky, but give 'em a call.

    Ruger 9mm/357

    Here are my 357/9mm Blackhawk convertibles. They're all keepers. 9mm cylinder not shown in this picture, but it's a convertible too:

    Went a Little Nuts with the Lanyards!

    earplug, there's gotta be more to that story.:uhoh: Hawkeye, Nice! Is that a 1917? Real purty. My other lanyard revolver is a MKVI Webley that's been converted to .45acp.

    Went a Little Nuts with the Lanyards!

    Got an itch the other night to put swivel lanyard rings on a couple of single actions. Even my Officer's 1911 couldn't escape!

    Glock Sub Owners, a moment please...

    buzz_knox, Well, you're right; It is great to be able to control the 27 effectively. I'm not knocking the 26, I just want to make larger diameter holes when it counts. Of course, shot placement will always be king. As far as "perceived increased effectiveness", I guess that's why Glock...

    Glock Sub Owners, a moment please...

    I didn't buy my G27 to be a plinker, I bought it because I wanted the most power I could get in the smallest Glock for carry that they make. The G33 is also a good candidate. I don't use the finger extensions (I do own a couple) because I want to keep it is small as possible. You can always...

    Beretta PX4 & Storm CX4 Combo or Ruger P9 & PC9 combo?

    I've been able to find used police trade-in pc9s for $350 or so. I'm kind of invested in the ruger p-series, so logically I should get one, but that storm carbine is nice.

    Trijicon VS Mepro ????

    I'm very happy with the trijicons on my Glock 22. I find them easy to pick up day or night, but I'd have no problem trying the Meps either.

    Hey, ulflyer!

    ulflyer, I read in the "a sad day" thread that you may be willing to part with a Nork? Got any specs, pics, asking price? I have a beauty Norinco now that I have just completed "customizing" for home defense/carry, so now I'd like have one to keep basically stock (right:rolleyes: ) for...

    Browning Pro 9

    I handled a Pro-40 today and was REAL impressed. Cocked & Locked (with the safety on the frame where it should be) OR traditional DA/SA all in one gun. Push down with a little more force on the safety and it de-cocks the hammer. If I could confirm the existence of hi-cap mags for it, my...

    Has Anyone Seen a Stress Crack Like This Before?

    First let me say thanks for the insights. I'm gonna try to take another close-up to see if I can show the "crack" a little differently. Anyway, I've decided to send it back to Ruger as I just don't feel comfortable shooting it anymore. I'll hope for the best regarding the rarity of the gun...

    Has Anyone Seen a Stress Crack Like This Before?

    sgt127, yeah, I'm afraid it's a crack. My guess is that since it is a high pressure area, the porous casting of the frame cracked instead of the bushing which might have been a stronger casting or forging.

    Has Anyone Seen a Stress Crack Like This Before?

    I'd like to hear from anyone with experience with this type of problem or has seen it before. This is a close-up of a little crack in the breechface of my stainless 357/9mm Blackhawk next to the firing pin hole bushing. I don't know if it's new or has always been there. I think it's new as...

    chances of finding an ruger 9mm revolver

    As soon as you buy something else, you'll find one! I didn't believe I'd ever find a 9mm SP-101 either til I picked one up at a gun show for $250 like new. Then a few months later a local shop had one for $375. I probably would have gone for it if I hadn't found the first one. My last find...

    Need a source for MILSURP .303 Brit ammo

    Thanks for the report. I didn't realize the ROF stuff wasn't reloadable. Good info.
