    Will we ever get full autos back?

    I would not want to be hanging while I waited for full autos to be available again to the general public ... and SAM1911, if you think the failure of new laws to pass after Sandy Hook was the last gasp of the anti-gun movement, you must know more than I do ... they may have lost this round, but...

    What is the most inaccurate pistol you own? Why do you keep it around?

    I'd have to say my Smith 637, but it's not the gun's fault, I don't think ... I simply don't have the time or inclination to practice with it enough to learn to shoot it straight ... especially since my little Kahr PM9 is deadly accurate from SD distances, and I only need to run 50 rounds or so...

    Glock30sf or Springfield xds

    Got an XDs about a month ago and so far it is a gem ... I pretty much pocket carry exclusively, given the months of 100+ days here in Texas. MY EDC is a PM9, but I love the idea of a .45 small enough to fit in my pocket and when the XDs is broken in and has proven itself with my regular carry...

    Just picked up a Rohrbaugh R9

    I looked at one when I was choosing a small gun for pocket carry, went with the Kahr PM9 because of the lower cost and have never been sorry ... the Kahr is very accurate, easy to shoot, has never failed to fire since new, is amazingly easy to take down and reassmble for cleaning and IMHO is the...

    Any Springfield XD owners and grip safety

    I owned an XD-40, currently have an XDm-9 and an XDs; have never had an issue with the grip safety ...

    A Carbine. What Caliber?

    I voted 9mm for two reasons ... I already own one, and I have a solid supply of 9mm to make sure I don't run out ... recoil is mild and I love the reach-out-and-touch-it accuracy out to about 100 yrds ...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    baz is correct about Texas ... there are businesses that post a no-guns-allowed sign, but the only way they can enforce it is to a. somehow spot your concealed weapon and b. ask you to leave. Refusing to leave can get you cited for trespassing, but with no impact on your license ... I've carried...

    opinions on small 9mm pistols?

    Another vote for Kahr ... been carrying a PM9 for almost 10 years; it's light enough to pocket carry, easy to belt carry if that's your preference, mine has never failed since I took it out of the box, it's wonderfully accurate at SD distances, easy to shoot, easy to maintain ...

    "Putting down the man gun"

    Interesting discussion ... I've had my CHL for almost 10 years, and my EDC has always been a Kahr PM9 .. I love it for its light weight, the fact it has never failed since I took it out of the box and that I shoot it very well ... but .. just picked up an XDs in .45ACP. I don't have enough...

    If your state passed new terrible gun laws, would you move or stay and fight?

    As soon as I retired (10 years ago, and don't EVER let people tell you retirement sucks, cause it doesn't!), trekked from CA to TX ... Got the CHL I could never get in CA, have been carrying for the past 9 years ... I don't see TX passing any anti-gun legislation, at least in what's left of my...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Even in the United State of Texas

    I saw that column, wrote to the guy who wrote it and shared a few thoughts with him ... he's a huge uberliberal, takes the farthest left position on every issue .... planning to write the paper about the gunshow deal, which is garbage ...

    House Shopping with defense in mind?

    My wife found the house we live in now, and didn't bring SD into the picture ... we have fenced and locked the back yard, put some motion lights ... pretty quiet town ...

    Why aren't FN pistols more popular?

    Always wanted a 5.7 ... wonder if they're still available?

    Current production 686 life?

    686+ is an amazing gun ... I've been shooting mine pretty steadily for about five years (not all .357 rounds tho) and it looks and shoots like new ...

    How Reliable are the Kimber 3" Micro 1911's?

    My UCII has been perfect from day one, has about 800 or so rounds through it; I love carrying it when it's cold; too much gun to hide on one of those 80 or so 100+ degree days we have here in Texas every summer ....

    Worst shooting pistol ?

    Toss-up ... a Bond Arms Texas Defender in 9mm; everything was way too heavy, from the actual weight to cocking the hammer, pulling the trigger, massive recoil with a slippery wood grip -- it's long gone. Closest competitor was a Taurus 617 which locked up after about 20-30 rds and had a trigger...

    tip-up barrel?

    had a Taurus .25 for a while; nice little gun and it was nice not to have to give myself a hernia trying to rack the slide; the springs on those things are wicked ... not much bang for the buck, to coin a phrase; a .25 will just p*** the target off if it doesn't hit a really important spot ...
