    Great Smith & Wesson Customer Service

    I banged up my Performance Center Shield Plus ported barrel at the muzzle. It affected accuracy too. Last year, S&W sent me a label, replaced the barrel, and shipped it back to me. Great customer service!

    New Release Beretta 92Xi

    It looks nice, but I have heard the same about the SA pull on all the gun forums, unfortunately....

    Beretta APX 1

    Good luck with that. When I bought my original APX Centurion, I fought with Beretta to get that $100. I fought for 12 months. Yes, 12 months. The rebate company kept sayin the serial # wasn't eligible. And, I mainly bought the gun because it was $276 AFTER the rebate. And, I had to keep...

    U notch sights

    I once had a Wilson Beretta, and it came with a "U" notch rear sight. I have owned a TON of Berettas over the years, and I know how to shoot them. I could not shoot the gun as well with that rear sight. I had Trijicon install a regular Brigadier rear night sight, with a square notch. I could...

    Traded Glock 43 for Kahr PM9

    Of all your photos, I like the Shield Plus the best. I had a Kahr PM9 over a decade ago. When the original Shield came out, I bought it and sold the PM9 the vert next week. But, if the OP is satisfied, that is all that counts

    Taurus firing when dropped? This again? Raise your hand if you are not surprised :)

    Winchester White Box 9mm in a... Black Box?

    Yes, the 22 isn't great. I only use Mini Mags to shoot 22. But, I think I have only had a couple of problems in thousands of rounds of WWB. But yea - it is dirty

    Who else loves a hard chrome finish?

    Back when there were many more hard chrome options, I had several guns hard chromed. Even many slides on polymer guns. Now, there are many less hard chromers due to government rules.

    Does Anyone Here Still Carry or Shoot DA/SA?

    I carried a DA/SA gun exclusively for about 10 years. But, the Beretta APX brought me back into striker fired guns. I no longer have the APX. But, I then jumped to a 5th Gen G19. And now for almost 2 years, I have carried the Shield Plus.

    LCP owners, what's your favorite defensive ammo?

    Golden sabers have never worked in my LCP. Only ammo that doesn't work. I use Federal hydrashok in mine. I have had mine since 2013.

    92FS Beretta slide not staying locked open on last shot

    The Beretta is not a polymer gun. Shooting 1 handed with a good grip should not result in a limp wrist malfunction. I previously had issues with the slide stop on Sig DA/SA guns. On 1 particular Sig, I swore I was not hitting it, yet it woukd never lock open whwn empty... EXCEPT when firing 1...

    92FS Beretta slide not staying locked open on last shot

    I would replace the recoil spring and slide stop spring. Then clean the mags. If still happening, replace the mag springs with +10% mag springs from gunsprings.com. Are you sure you are not hitting the slide stop while shooting. Try shooting 1 handed to eliminate that possibility.

    I don't understand the popularity of the M&P Shield guns.

    I LOVE the Shield Plus. The Performance Center models have amazing triggers. Best factory trigger on a striker fired gun I have ever felt. They break between 3.25 and 3.5 pounds. I have two of the Performance Center Shield Plus models, and one regular Shield Plus with factory night sights. I've...

    MSAR AUG

    If you were on AR15.com back in the day, you would have seen at the time there were issues. They worked with people, but at the end, I have read the claim that they were cranking out problem guns

    MSAR AUG

    I had one of those. They cranked out a ton of them at the end, of questionable quality. I sold mine at the very end, before the gun went away. And, later I bought a really Steyr AUG. I did not trust my MSAR AUG. It had a tendency to not fire when reassembled. Then, I'd take it apart -...

    Best of the 9mm micros

    I rented that gun. I found it much snappier than the Shield Plus. I have tried many subcompacts over the years. The Shield Plus is my favorite. I have 3 of them... Two 3.1" models and a 4" model. They shoot amazing.

    Please vote for one.....

    Yes, but the G25 and G28 are blowback. Have you every shot a blowback 380? I had a Beretta 85 years ago, and I thought it kicked more than a 9mm.

    Got my new 9mm S&W FPC

    The included case is overly large, for the size of the gun folded, IMHO. I plan to use a backpack to keep it in.

    Got my new 9mm S&W FPC

    I paid $600 + tax for it

    Got my new 9mm S&W FPC

    Well, I haven't been excited about a gun in a while. This design is very interesting. As soon as I saw it online, I knew I had to get one
