Does ANYBODY sell a ramped blade style (plain black) front sight for one of the "new" Colt Cobras or Pythons (the ones with the set screw which comes in from the front)? I've got a King Cobra Target with the fiber optic sight and just can't make myself like it. I'd much rather have a plain black...

Which would you rather have strictly for range use - a Colt Combat Commander 9mm or a CZ 75B retro?

I've had many handguns over the years and never thought I'd find one which I love as much as the Model 1911/Colt Government Model, but I think the M17 is at least a tie. I have been firing mostly Winchester Service Grade 115 grain (which, as far as I can tell is same-same M1152) and some...

Just wanted some opinions on the recoil of a .44 Magnum (say, a 6" barrel S&W) versus the recoil of a .45 revolver with .45 ACP or Auto Rim ammunition. I've fired the latter (a Colt version of the Model 1917) but have never fired a .44 Magnum. Is there much difference?

I just got back from a trip to the range with my new Auto-Ordance Model 1911A1 which I picked up, cleaned and lubed yesterday. 100 rounds of Winchester White Box 230 grain ball down range. As solid, smooth and accurate as any gun I've ever shot. I know that Auto-Ordnance had a "sketchy"...

What do you think would be the best range/plinking ammo for a Model 1911A1? I know that most manufacturers specify 230 grain ball, but what about muzzle velocity? Anything to worry about on that? What about brands?

As much as I like Robert Mika's products, I thought I might try out a Remora pocket/IWB holster for my Česká Zbrojovka vz.70. Which size should I order? They don't list the vz.50 or vz.70. The Walther PPK and PPK/S are size 3B, but they are slightly shorter pistols. Any ideas?

Just happened to see this on "grabagun.com": CZ Compact SDP 9mm Black Heinie NS 14rd Does this refer to a very dark German or to someone whose arse is overly-tanned? ;)

Kicking around the idea of getting a CZ-75D PCR and was just wondering if the grips for a CZ-75 Compact will work on it.

I was thinking about putting my "truck gun" (along with a desiccant pack) in an Uncle Mike's Pistol Rug zippered pouch. Would this be a good idea for what would amount to long-term storage? Would it do anything to harm the finish on the pistol?

Will Walther PP PPK/S .32 magazines work in a CZ vz.50?

I recently received my second CZ vz.82 pistol and noticed something which struck me as odd. I hope that it's not a cause for concern. The breech (that is to say, the portion of the frame which surrounds the breech end of the barrel, itself) looks as if it has taken quite a beating. The barrel...

I have one of many CZ82s which CAI imported. On some of them (mine included), they "etched" a second serial number on the front grip strap (just below the trigger guard). The manufacturer's serial number (a different number) is still in place on the frame and the slide. Would it be legal (for...

Anyone have any experience with this ammo? Would it be safe for a CZ82? Is it really any better than Hornady Critical Defense?

I've got a Beretta Model 1934 (made in 1941) which I had completely refurbished (i.e., all new springs, new extractor, new firing pin, new ejector, and professionally hot-blued) a few years ago. I'm thinking about selling it in order to free up space in my safe. I know that purists will say that...

Where might one obtain caps and/or t-shirts with the old Česká zbrojovka CZ logo (not the new stylized "pistol" emblem)?

How well does it hold up? Will a trace of oil (as a result of normal gun cleaning) have any effect on it? Is it reasonably resistant to chips and scratches?

Assuming JHPs for both, which would you rather use for personal defense: 7X62X25 Tokarev or 9X18 Makarov? (And please note that I'm asking for opinions on these two calibers only. ;) )

This may have been covered elsewhere, although my "search" yielded nothing. It seems that I read somewhere that Marschal grips tend to crack if you overtighten the screws. The poster suggested placing small rubber o-rings between the grip and the frame (as I understood it) at each screw hole...
