    Favorite .45 (non-1911)

    Third Gen Smiths ie. 4506 4566 457. Tough as a tank, reliable as the Tax Man. Jon

    Contender vs. Encore in 357 Maximum?

    I have a Contender with a couple of barrels. .357 is not one though. Might want to try and find a .357 barrel. Agree on the 12"-14". Easier than finding the Max. Then take it to your 'Smith and have him ream it to .357 Max. Or if you're handy rent the reamer from 4D and do it...

    10mm vs 40 S&W Recoil

    I have a G29 with a LW 40 barrel also. I mirror the same results. The 40 is much more snappy. That's not to say the 10 is a pussycat. I have had good results as far as accuracy and reliability with the 40 Lone Wolf barrel. From my experience, I would recommend them. Jon

    Glock 10mm and 40

    I own a G29. Yes it can be done. Bad idea. No it IS NOT SAFE to do. People do stupid things though. The 40 when fired in the 10 is held in place by the extractor I think. Again BAD IDEA. But stupid people, repeat, do stupid things. $99 for a Lone Wolf 40 conversion barrel...

    S&W 659 and 5906 Mag Sateties

    No one seems to want to tell you. Not hard. Remove the rear sight. There is a small spring under it. Remove the spring. Presto. Keep the spring to replace and restore the safety. I have had Ned Christiansen of Michguns (www.m-guns.com) work his magic on a couple of my 3rd gen guns. He...

    Has anyone gone from a small .38 to a small .380 for primary CCW?

    Holy Smokestacks... when I saw this originally I was surprised that Erich posted this question. I have followed Erich's exploits for several years and consider him a "near" expert. After reading all the replies I better understand what he was looking for. I carry everyday, everywhere a 3AT...

    Hiking/Camping CCW: Looking for carry ideas...

    Don't sway from the G20. Great gun and great cartridge. I have the G29. Use the 15 round mag from the 20 when in the woods. As stated before. Safepacker. Works great. Protects the gun. Non-descript. Easy to access the gun. Room for aded items. Can be worn on belt, hooked to pack...

    "I regret to inform you..."

    Nothing I can say will ever take the hurt away. But, let it be known that you and your family are in our thougths and prayers. May God bless you and your family and give you peace. May he also keep safe all our troops who are in harms way. Jon

    What are your current thoughts on "Hangin' Ten"?

    9. Have THREE, Love them, Plan to Get More, Ten Forever! If you haven't fired a 10 you don't know what you're missing. Jon

    Glock 29 10mm

    The G29 is a great little compact blaster. It's my edc. I had my grip reduced by Bowie Tactical. Made a big difference to me in gripping this little sucker. The G20 mags fit also which gives you 15 more rounds if you so desire. A sleeve is available to fill the extra void. I reload...

    .380 auto mis-fires

    Sigma 380 gets a big pile of bashing. Most probably deserved. I have one. Had light strikes. Back to Smith. Fixed it free. Now after 1000 rounds it still always goes bang. It's small. Easy to carry. Pretty good Backup. YMMV Jon

    Corbon PowerBall (Pow`rBall

    Well were gonna hafta agree to disagree on this one. As a Michigander I'm quite familiar with Evan Marshall and the gang at StoppingPower. They are not just a bunch of telephone book shooters as Dig suggests. They have done extensive testing in "Jelly Blocks" during their annual "Hoot N...

    What is the most powerful caliber legally available?

    Go over to Blackbeard Outdoors under the Blackpowder Section. They have a section on Blackpowder Cannons and Motars. They are good folks and helped me a bunch on my build. Jon

    Interested in a Semiauto 10mm. Is this any good?

    Gotta jump in here. I have about 15 handguns that I shot a lot. I "found" the 10mm about 2 years ago. I now own 3 and its what I shoot the most. If you just want a shooter find a Smith. They are made like a tank and parts are still available. Lot of good info on www.10mmtalk and...

    I know, I know...I read...either or....BUT Why not a Reloader Kit (Lee or RCBS), powder, primers and Boolets for the $400??? Probably less, then you good to go in the future. My feable idea. 6 .
