Dude
I think that you are mistaken on the weight, you list for your 7 shot .357 mag 617 titanium. It is 19.9 ounces for that model. Just for comparison the 605 titanium which is a 5 shot .357 mag weighs 16 ounces, the and the 6 shot titanium 731 .32 h&r mag weighs 13 ounces. Maybe this will...
How would recoil from standard pressure 9mm loads in the 30 ounce pistol compare to standard loads in .45 acp in a 39 ounce pistol? Would they not be about the same. Also .22 will not do for the acadamey they require a minimum of 9mm.
I know that people are going to make a lot of jokes about the title. I hope however that I also get some good responses. I am trying to decide what color of fingernail polish to use on the front sight of my new Taurus 617 in shadow gray titanium. I am considering something in florescent...
I personally will not buy a handgun without an external hammer. This goes for revolvers and autos, secondly I would be reluctent to buy a SA only handgun. Why just my personal preference, that's all.
355sigfan, that is why I stated that only if the ammo preformed up to par would it be worth considering I have heard nothing either way I will trust you on the rounds terminal preformance.
I was hopping someone would ask where I got those stats. Check out Double Tap Ammo. As for the suggestions as far as ammo, no thanks from the research that I have done I appears that it is possible to still get adaquate penatration and expansion form higher energies. When penetration is...
Anyone own a roughly 20 ounce .357 Mag revolver and if so what ammo do you run through it. How is recoil? Can you please be specific as to how much your firearm weighs which particular ammo you were using and what your perceptions were. Thanx
The 274 that is listed on the website is roughly the same as many .38 sp +p (out of 4 inch barrels however many people depend on .38 sp +p loads out of 2 inch barrels for self-defense or home protection) loads as far as energy is concerned and better also than .380 auto (another round many...
My thoughts I would prefer a .40 over .45 anyday. I like the idea of being able to carry more, more powerfull rounds in the same size package, and the .40 allows this. 135 gr at 1420 fps and 620 foot pounds of energy at muzzle out of a 4.5 inch barrel. The very best I have found for the .45...
The reason is that I work for a sheriffs dept (as a dispatcher) where the issue firearm is a Kimber .45. I am hopeing to be able to put myself through the academy part time so that when there is an open spot on the road I will be ready for it. Since I will be paying my way cost is a factor or...
I don't know why I have to keep repeting this. The specs on the 5.7 according to FN's site show a 28 gr hollow point round at 640 mps or 2099.73 fps which translates into 274 foot pounds of energy.
In my opinion the 1911 is a less than efficent platform, likewise the .45 acp is inefficent for it's size and weight. There are many other pistols out there that hold more rounds, many of these fire rounds have more muzzle energy or close to the same muzzle energy as the best .45 Acp rounds...
Hand size
I have what I consider to be small hands I wear a size 7 1/4 ring, my middle finger from web to tip is 3 inches, lenght of hand from palm to tip of finger is 7 inches and width of hand is 3 3/8 inches. I also own a beretta 96 which I find fits my hand very nicely. Just my thoughts.
