    Zumbo: Gun rag writer trashes "Assault Weapons"

    Let Zumbo fund his own (re)education. If he wants to redeem himself it will be more legitimate if it did not occur in the lap of luxury. Maybe he should experience a little of what the rest are going through, as we will all have to dig deep to preserve our right. Consequently, if we each...

    Zumbo: Gun rag writer trashes "Assault Weapons"

    I can only imagine what it will cost firearms owners to repel the advance which will surely result from the secular progressive community. How many millions of dollars will we collectively have to raise to defeat the group who better manipulates media and rarely has to pay for it. It is highly...

    So What Do Air Marshalls Carry?

    From a USA Today article... "Air marshals carry automatic .357 SIG Sauer pistols with a 12-round cartridge. The bullets are hollow-point and expand on entering a body. "It's one of the most high-powered rounds you can put in a weapon," the second air marshal said." Now, if we could just get...

    WTB Original BHP T series(1968)magazine

    Answering original question.. My post was also directed at the original question. After having visited Collectors and dealing with the staff I believe they are an excellent place to start on a hard to locate item. There may also be other shops that also have large inventories or specialize in...

    Hi Power evolution...

    I am of the opinion that... Hi Powers should be in 9mm but I can see the benefits of .40 for those which have standardized on the round for personal/LE/Secuity type reasons. Further, I have to believe that the .357 SIG will greatly diminsh the service life of a Hi Power based on posts by Bruce...

    You may check at... Collectors Firearms in Texas or Simpsons Ltd in Illinois. Both have exellent webpages and I would be very surprised if Collectors did not have what you are looking for. FWIW and respectfully submitted.

    Sig's JCP Entry

    Last I read... the JCP specified both an 8-round and 10-round magazine. Also, the P220 model in question has a Nitron over hardchromed barrel and phosphated controls. IIRC, the newer P220 frames are set up for DAK or DA/SA which also fulfills the requirement that the fire controls be...

    Help Me Pick My Next 9mm

    You may consider the following 9mm's... Browning Hi Power CZ 75B Walther P1 SIG SP2009 Smith & Wesson PC9 (5 or 6-inch barrel) Smith & Wesson 952 Walther P5 Edited: I think a USP 9mm (Variant 9 - SA only) would be very interesting. FWIW and respectfully submitted.

    Thinking of a 1911, need opinions

    Another vote for the S&W I voted for the Smith & Wesson because it is a excellent entry into the world of the 1911. I noticed you already own Smith & Wessons which means you have been satisfied with the company's products thus far. Yes, there are some 'issues' to the diehard purist, of which...

    Coast Guard adopts new pistol

    Three Kinds of Ammunition I read a post awhile back by a Coast Guard Flyer and he stated they would have available three kinds of ammunition. The list would include a training round, a hollowpoint and a fmj round. This was necessary to allow them to fulfill their various roles. The...

    You may consider the following: SIG P210 Walther P5 Browning Hi-Power HK P7M8 or PSP STI Ranger II STI Trojan SIG P225 SIG Pro with 'small grip and short trigger installed' or if he can handle a slide mounted the I would consider the Smith & Wesson 952. FWIW and respectfully...

    I Just purchased my first 1911.

    In the price you are operating... stainless steel is fine. My current 1911-style guns are stainless because they are shot and used and 'refinishing' is simplified with stainless guns. Also, the checkering is/was a little to agressive for my tastes as well. If the checkering becomes a problem...

    is a sig 2009 9 mm a good gun or pos?

    The one I had shot excellent... with Winchester USA 147 grain JHP as well as Winchester Ranger 147 grain ammunition. It was like shootign a laser. If I were to pick up a double-stack gun again then the SIG Pro series with the 'small' grip and short trigger is at the top of my list. I also...

    Who's Better?

    SIG because... they have made a stronger commitment to the citizen market which should have residual effects positively impacting a basic American right. Further, HK has done little to nurture anything but the uber-practical aspects of firearms which the anti-2A agenda feeds on. FWIW and...

    What gun for what competition?

    An advantage the... Glock has over the XD, beyond proliferation, is the owners ability to compete in GSSF matches. These matches are Glock only. I only offer this because the focus of the thread is competition and as I understand it GSSF matches are the least expensive way to get into...

    The Best .45ACP?

    Since the gun will have CC... potential then I would stick with the same manual of arms as your current gun. I have had and sold and XD9-SC. It felt great but I could not get used to the trigger. Some would argue it is not wise to mix the 1911/BHP manual of arms with others if defense is a...

    Major Dilemma! Have to dump a gun!

    Sell the 'other'... as in the Beretta. The P226 is tried and true. Also, the P228 offers the same manual of arms as the P226. While you are at you might consider picking up a copy of the SIG Armorer's DVD that Top Gun Supply offers. Having guns with the same manual of arms allows for...

    Best 9mm?

    Best is subjective but... four staple 9mm's are: 1. CZ 75B - all steel, allows for SA or DA carry 2. Browning HP - all steel, a customizable classic with a near cult following 3. SIG P226 - alloy framed, it is the contemporary 9mm that military, LEO and security professionals consider as...
