Is the old chief's special close enough in size to fit in a kydex pocket holster designed for a j frame? Specifically a 642/442. I Googled up and couldn't find anything helpful. Thanks!

Although my first firearm was a full-sized Taurus revolver, and I currently own a Dan Wesson 5" .357, most of my guns have all been semi-autos. My search for the perfect CCW has led me from one semi-auto to another: my first CCW was a Glock 26. Great gun - reliable, accurate, and the perfect gun...

I see grips every now and then that look like standard classic wood grips, but with added metal for grip. Pic that I found shown below. Is there a name for grips of this type? Is there a good source online to buy them? I have a blued S&W 36 chief's that they would go good on...

Not sure if this is old news, but: http://www.outdoorhub.com/news/2014/07/08/us-army-seek-new-service-handgun/ "The US Army has officially indicated that it is potentially looking to replace more than 200,000 Beretta M9 pistols currently in service with a more powerful and precise firearm...

I've found plenty of reviews online but I trust the folks here a THR more than anything, so... I'm interested in getting a Weaver T36 (36x fixed power), my intent will be to put it on a CZ 527 Varmint (.223 Remington). Its primary (if not exclusive) purpose will be for 100yds shooting...

I did my due diligence and searched around first before I posted. Although this question came up here and there, I couldn't find anything relating to my question specifically. I have a habit of being long-winded so I'll try to make a long story short: I'm looking for a rifle to take to the...

My understanding is that one of the problems with steel-cased ammo is its ability (or inability) to feed/eject properly in semi-auto rifles. I've been debating what I want to get for a 100yd target rifle for a while now and the main deciding factor is the price of ammunition - which is why I...

Well, I got my CZ P-01 today. That brings my handgun collection to: Gov't 1911 (Citadel/Armscor) Dan Wesson Model 14 5" .357 CZ P-01 Beretta Nano Sure, there were some better options for a pocket gun than the Nano, but I really like it. I've got a good woods gun and hunting sidearm in...

Finally got my new-to-me BU9 Nano last night. Very lightly used, only a little holster wear on it. I haven't taken it to the range yet, but here's my thoughts so far: My first impression was WOW this thing is smooth, and I don't mean smooth in the slang sense I mean I couldn't get this thing...

Put in the order for a VM-2 today; black with sharkskin trim. They quoted me 10 to 16 weeks. I ordered it about an hour ago so I'm a little antsy right now, but of course as the days go by I'll get more and more patient. In the meantime... show me your Sparks holsters!

So I've known I want a CZ P-01 for a while now. 99.9% sure that it will be my next purchase now that I've gotten a new EDC in 9mm (BU9 Nano). It will fulfill the role of primarily being a nightstand/home defense gun, for me and when I'm out of town for my recoil sensitive wife. It'll also...

I was reading an article today and the headline picture had what looked like a really nice holster. Does anyone recognize it? It doesn't look like your average run of the mill $20 holter, hopefully it will ring a bell or two because it looks like something I'd like to have. Kydex/Leather...

I try not to post simple questions like this, but I googled pretty extensively and only found a few answers... they either weren't very clear, or conflicted each other. I know that externally the CM9 and PM9 are almost identical, except that on the PM9 there is a little more material taken...

Just to clarify, my question here is not about comparing the cartridges these guns shoot, or comparing snub revolvers to subcompact 9mms. Unless you really want to have that conversation again (which we all know gets us nowhere and just comes down to opinion a vs opinion b), I would say we can...

I spent some time doing image searches with various keywords, and I made sure I couldn't find what I was looking for before posting a picture request here. I only found one picture and it was very blurry. Does anyone here who owns/has access to both a full size CZ-75 and a Gov't 1911 mind...

According to their website, Aside from the safety/decocker, in looking at pictures of these guns there do appear to be some differences: The dust covers appear to be shaped differently, as well as the bottom of the slide that extends beyond the dust cover The mag releases appear to be...

So I'm at least familiar with the concept of red dot sights, looked through a few at the LGS, but never used one at the range or shot with one. Maybe I'm missing something, but why are multiple MOA options offered in so many sights? 2 MOA, 4, 6, 8, etc. It seems like you would want the...

I've always appreciated revolvers for their styling, function, and design. It all started when I inherited my dad's Dan Wesson 6" model 14. But even though I like revolvers, all of my carry and defense guns have been semi autos - over the years a 9mm here, a 45 there, even a 380 in the mix...

Below are two pictures of 1911s that I got from google - the first one details the problem/issue I am describing, the second details an ideal design for me. Most (but not all) of the 1911s I see elsewhere are designed/cut/whatever so that standard grips go all the way to the front of the...

I've looked through El Paso's options and they have a few things that are similar to what I'm looking for, but none of them quite hit the mark. The closest they come is their Patton holster. I just don't like the exposed trigger. Every Cowboy action / western holsters online store I have...
