I know I'm late to the party, but I've put around a few thousand rounds through mine over the past month and haven't seen any appreciable difference in the finish. I've been carrying it in a Blackhawk Serpa Commander holster (without the light), and I've heard that they're a little rough on the...

I recently had a failure in my Para Slim Hawg, which I fully expected to be a horrific experience dealing with their customer support, based on the stories I've heard. I sent an email in describing what was broken, and got an email back the next business day asking for my address to send the...

That sounds like a good way to go for the next one. I'm not impressed with this clip at all. Mag release button is on the left; The molded leather is fairly stiff and I haven't had any problems with mags popping out at all. It would be easy to mold it a little extra-large around the mag...

I do have one, but trying to use that was (part of) what ruined my last attempt. I've decided it's a feature that I can do without for the first few iterations, until I get my skills (and planning) up to status quo. After wearing it around for a couple days, I'm realizing that the sharp edge...

Hey guys, I had finally decided on a carry gun, and since I've been enjoying my beginning steps in leatherworking so much, I decided to make a holster for it. I'm looking for any feedback or finishing tips you may have. My biggest complaint with this holster is the belt clip. I'm not sure...

The LDA trigger only fires in DA. There's no single action. These symptoms are the same, whether I'm firing live rounds or handling an unloaded gun. In summary: flipping the thumb safety to "safe" causes the trigger to snag on the next pull.

I was just drafting an introductory post over there. I'll do that, but I'm getting ready to pass out pretty soon here. This weekend I'll start a budget sheet laying out what I think my season's expenses will be, and see if I can actually do this thing (it looks good right now, but logistics...

Much appreciated. My rifle experience has been limited to .22lr, .223rem, .308, and 7.62x39, and I fell in love with the precision a rifle offers after a lot of handgun shooting. Apparently the ballistic properties of .22lr @ 100yards is comparable to .223rem @ 600yards, which made my day (it...

I'm not trying to kick up a bee's nest or anything here, but the first result in my search was this thread: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=685992 You stated that you don't like them in that thread, and mastiffhound had a friend who had stovepipe issues. Everyone else in the thread...

Yeah, marketing folks like statements like that. DPMS and Bushmaster have similar statements suggesting that they're the best choice in the whole wide world of guns. It seems to me that ArmaLite makes excellent weapons, but that their name carries a very large premium. I'm no collector, I just...

Any non-anecdotal evidence to back that up? I'm all ears to advice, but I'm more interested in the reasons behind the advice than the end result. That's like searching through the Constitution for the word "WE": It doesn't really narrow down the results to what you're looking for. I've done...

I've heard many cautionary tales against the Para compact 1911's, but ended up getting a great deal on a used one, and fell in love with the overall feel. While I try to decide what my next compact 1911 will be, I'm trying to work out the 'notchiness' in the trigger in this one. I've torn it...

I'm in way over my head. I've been looking for an excuse to buy an ar15 for years, but knew I lacked a real reason to invest that kind of money into something that would effectively be a decoration. I believe I've finally found a real excuse that i can get behind, after watching a few videos...
