    Any interest in a compiled Taurus Judge Thread?

    Granted it would be a lot of work for the moderators, but the Judges are flying off the shelves. Anti-carjacking guns, home defense guns, etc. I thought there might be some interest in a compilation of threads on them. Anyway, on to my problem. Didn't think I would buy one but I did...

    Owning a gun in my country

    I see from time to time, a member from a country other than the USA post this or that about gun ownership in his or her country. A lot of times it is either US ex-patriots, or US military guys like myself who lived a good chunk of their careers in another country (Germany for me). I think...

    Taurus, Ruger, or S&W?

    Looking at three .357s on Gunbroker right now. Taurus 66, blued, 4", will probably hit $350-$360. S&W 19-3, blued, will probably go for $600. Ruger Police Service 6, SS, will probably take $550 to $570. I own guns made by all 3 manufacturers. No issues with Taurus, other than they are...

    rings in the cylinder?

    Would the rings in the cylinder indicate this .357 has fired a boatload of .38 Spl? Any concerns of firing .357 in it again? And not to insult the seller if he's a member here, but I'd do a little better job cleaning a gun I was trying to sell. Just saying..... Thanks,

    Ruger Police Security Six .357

    Any regularly recurring issues? Would a 1990 model have the transfer bar safety? Thanks,

    Is a magnum load in a short barrel revolver wasted?

    Sorry for the dumb question, but I figured the hand loaders would be the best crowd to answer this. Basically I'm trying to evaluate whether a short barreled .357 is really going to pack a whole lot more punch than a .38 SPL at the same short barrel length. I think I read at some point...

    FTF transactions

    So I am preparing to sell a couple of handguns. I'll offer FTF for fellow Virginians, as well as shipping to an FFL for out of state buyers. Now obviously I MUST verify age if I feel there is a snowballs chance the buyer is under 21. Living as close to MD and D.C. as I do, I should probably...

    Solidarity?

    unity (as of a group or class) that produces or is based on community of interests, objectives, and standards Yet, as I read many posts here, I would believe we are white Anglo-Saxon Protestant (mostly males), and that the second amendment rights seem to be of concern to us only. Might be an...

    Ruger LCP 380 - the bad?

    Looking to replace my self destructed 380 (see my Davis P380 thread), I've been searching for a 380 to replace it. Quality for the price, I always find myself coming back to Rugers. Other than the trigger pull, which seems to be a frequent complaint, are there any other things I may...

    Davis P380 - Do Not Use

    If you have one of these guns, destroy it! Another of my whim buys over the years was a Davis P380 - a $50 gun back in the 1980s. Was at the range with it yesterday, with my kids, and the front of the slide separated and flew off. Very fortunately, that was all that happened. Could...

    My hand cannons - which goes, which stays?

    Years ago I bought a Ruger .44 magnum Super Blackhawk with an 11 inch barrel on a whim and because I got a stellar deal on it. Was going to take up hunting with a handgun, and that thing is pretty darned accurate. A few years later, I bought a Taurus .454 Casull (just to ask the hottie at...

    Range etiquette?

    In addition to the pretty common range etiquette which ensures safety to all, do any of you have any practices you observe to ensure a friendly atmosphere at the range? I suppose my question pertains to public ranges and clubs versus shooting ranges at gun shops. Bearing in mind, we all have...
