I'd think the lack of a hollow cavity would increase pressure, but yet most DEWCs seem to have crimp grooves that would suggest that they are not seated flush with the case mouth like HBWCs, so maybe pressures would be the same?

Well I suppose it's at least worth a try then. Thanks guys.

I have two handguns that have a matte stainless finish. I'd rather they have a satin finish. In my mind, a gun should either be shiny, beautiful, and intimidating, or else it should be black, non-reflective, and discreet, not anything in-between. Is this something that a gunsmith can...

What I really want to know is: does anyone actually conceal full-sized guns on hip holsters on a regular basis here? I really just don't see how it would be possible to hide a 1911-size weapon on your hip without suffering either extreme discomfort when seated, or severe printing. I've tried...

I've noticed this as well. For me personally, I feel "incomplete" if I go out in public without some sort of outerwear. In summer, I wear a very breathable denim trucker jacket, or at least a unbuttoned button-down overshirt, and do so even if I am not wearing a shoulder holster. I do not...

I wear one all day on my every day off from work, and it never bothers me. These days, I carry my Colt trooper vertically in a Bianchi X15 holster. It conceals wonderfully under a denim trucker jacket, and a breathable outer layer like that won't kill me even if it is 95 degrees out.

I had never thought of the issue with shooting ranges. I do all of my shooting out in the woods. I can definitely see a draw from a shoulder holster being easily fouled in grappling range with an opponent, but of course, it's moot, because I can't carry a respectably sized weapon on my waist...

I've experimented with just about every style of holster available in conjunction with every basic type of handgun in production over the last several years, and I have an extremely average body type. My conclusion is that only subcompact pistols and j-frame revolvers are practical for...

They need to make one with a half-lug barrel, and a 5-shot compact frame one (don't know if a true J-frame would be possible).

And of course, I imagine there would be a significant gap between the case mouth and the chamber throat, much more than there would be when using a .38 in a .357 chamber. Not sure if I like that idea. I just wish there were more .45ACP revolvers in general. The cartridge is very efficient...

I guess that makes sense. Would the .45LC case still be fully supported in the chamber, or would sections be exposed due to the cutouts for the moon clips?

... How does it work? The site claims it can fire both rounds in the same cylinder, whereas their previous multi-cartridge revolvers utilized swap-out cylinders. There are no pictures of the chamber mouths that I can find. Anyone got the skinny on this? It looks sweet though. I'm really...

They're not making 'em any more. I reckon the thing would fit in a Python holster or maybe a S&W K-frame one, but I want to be sure. Anyone got any advice?

It would be a hunting rifle, and I'm leaning towards the .30-30, of course. However, a .357 is tempting. It's my favorite cartridge, and I already reload for the .357, as I have many revolvers in the cartridge. It would also have lighter recoil and blast than the .30-30, and would be just as...

I've been hearing that they've gotten their crap together as of late, but it really irks me whenever I hear widespread bad reviews of firearms from a manufacturer. Guns are very dangerous, and are used in situations where lives may be at stake. A bad one should NEVER leave the factory.

And as for Winchesters, I forgot to mention that I've heard that they require special tools/knowledge to disassemble and may need to be sent to the factory for maintenance periodically. If that's true, that's unacceptable to me.

That's exactly what I meant. A revolver-caliber lever gun should not weigh 8.5 freakin' pounds! And that U-G-L-Y brass receiver! People seriously buy these? And to top it all off, it's got that slide-out style magazine, effectively removing the traditional lever gun's last remaining...

I'm in the market for a new lever gun. Problem is, there seem to be issues with all the ones being produced today: Rossi: Notorious for poor quality control. Marlin: Widely reported to have suffered in quality since being taken over by Remington. I've handled new Marlins recently that...

I'm wondering if there is any effort currently underway to reduce or eliminate the regulations on suppressors. It's my understanding that current procedures for acquiring a suppressor were established many decades ago, and were specifically written by anti-firearm politicians in a way so as...

I have never seen a pistol beg so hard for a suppressor in my life. http://www.browning.com/products/interactive/firearms/1911-380/ A locked-breech .380 with a 4.25" barrel. That's a recipe for Hollywood-quiet. Maybe someone has insider info as to whether they plan to release a...
