    Well at least they can hit something now

    From Original Poster Personally, I don't want these guys to be able to hit the broad side of a barn! Very old, but it still warrants a chuckle... Tim

    Gunbroker.com

    I know that alot of folks like them, and that's great. But since you asked... My advice to you is to stay away, but if you must use their "services", be very careful with GB. They are VERY biased towards the seller. If you have a problem with a transaction, don't expect GB to help AT ALL...

    Possible self defense situation

    How did you determine their "BG" status? "possibly a firearm"? You had better be sure. "Possibly" doesn't allow you to draw down. At this point you suspect some "BG" might possibly have a firearm, that's pretty weak. If you see me at the general store near my camp, you might get a glimpse of...

    quick question

    In MA, you will get: The gun itself. Two 10 rnd Klinton magazines. Cleaning brush (crap) Factory documentation (owner's manual) A lock of some type. Carrying case. I know you didn't ask but...take good care of the finish on this gun, they're prone to problems, but getting better...

    CCW ammo life expenticy?

    When I eject the chambered round, I put a small mark on the casing with a sharpie. That round now goes to the bottom of the magazine. I repeat this process until I have a full mag of "marked" rounds. When this happens, I fire the entire mag at the range. Then I start over. I would not...

    I WANT to buy a Glock, BUT...

    Posted by HSMITH Exactly. Very few folks I know of have hands that are truly too small for a G19. I don't like the feel of (and can't hit anything with) a "naked" Glock grip, definitely try some kind of enhancement before you walk away from a great design. Strategically applied skateboard...

    Ordering Off GunBroker.com

    The measure of any vendor/broker is how the parties are treated when things go badly. GB ALWAYS sides with the seller, it's good for their pocketbook. I give my opinion only because the question was asked. I don't want to see other folks get screwed. Do with my advice what you will, if you've...

    Ordering Off GunBroker.com

    Don't. Heavily biased towards sellers. If/when you get screwed by one, expect to be ignored by GB.

    Glock Guide Rods??

    Glock did not switch to the polymer guiderod, that is the original design. Broken guiderods are almost invariably the result of improper installation (wrong lug on barrel) Your stock guiderod will NOT melt. It is used in the G18 (full auto), it is effectively cooled every time the slide...

    Robotic Sentry Gun

    Schematic needed.

    Need schematic drawing of S&W model 908. Would like to know how to change the grips, and I need to know what is underneath so that I do it properly. Disassembly instructions would also be helpful. Thanks Tim

    Holster Help Needed

    I have a new S&W 908. I can't seem to find many holsters for this model. What other S&W autos have the same or similar dimensions? I will only be carrying at the range, so I don't want to spend alot on this particular item. I do need positive retention, though; maybe a strap, but no "thumbreak"...

    S&W 908

    It's a familiar tale... I was buying ammunition. Next thing I know, I have a new S&W model 908 in my gunsafe. It's all just a blur. ;) I have never owned a S&W autoloader before, I have Glocks and a Walther. Anything I should know that "aint in the book"? Does this gun have any...

    Glock 30 breaking?

    No big problems IMHO the trigger spring on the 30 (and all Glocks) should be replaced annually as part of your preventive maintenance schedule for all your guns, particularly a carry gun. In fact, I replace all springs yearly, I know it seems pretty often, but it makes me feel good, and its...

    Steel or tungsten core?

    I'm not familiar with Speer African Grand Slam Solids, they may well be both tungsten core and perfectly legal (where you are). I wouldn't like to be caught carrying them in say, Boston. I did say "some juridictions". At any rate, the point of my post was that in MOST SITUATIONS, no good can...

    Do they make in-purse holsters? My girl is in love with my P3AT

    I would have to strongly advise against against carrying off-body. 1)Kids love ladies purses. Even if you don't have kids, they are everywhere. Even if they shouldn't go into your stuff, they still might. 2)She could put the thing down and forget it. It happens. Everyone that ever does it...

    Steel or tungsten core?

    Tungsten IS NON-FERROUS, and is immune to standard magnetic attraction. The cores in question are not tungsten. Likely not a tungsten alloy either, it's very difficult and expensive to alloy (besides, it would be pointless in this application). Also, the density of tungsten would allow you to...
