    milsurp help

    Alright, those Mitchell's Mausers ads are gettin' me worked up. I'd like to get a WWI/WWII-era bolt-action. It should cost less than $500. Be in showroom condition. Look good. Operate smoothly and flawlessly. And shoot at least 1.00 MOA. I got my "Military Rifles" pamphlet...

    Kahr PM9 Experiences?--Choose ALL that apply

    A couple years ago I had a P9 Covert. I could make it jam with a non-strangle-hold grip. After a few hundred rounds, it worked its way up to jamming every round. I sent it to Kahr and they sent it back ... fixed. Back to jamming only when I let up on the grip. I eventually traded it off on...

    1911: sig GSR v Dan wesson v Kimber

    I've had 5 Kimbers ... I used to buy into the hype. No more! Just kept one ... just 'cause it's so pretty. SW1911 (for $700) has been my BEST single-stack 1911 to date ... excellent quality and reliability. If I ever buy another single-stack, it'll be a STI or SV. Possibly a Wilson ...

    .40 vs .45, SIG vs USP

    My Sig P226 9mm is my favorite pistol. I'm so glad it's 9mm 'cause, for the same money, I can shot it more.:D Part of the reason it's my favorite is 'cause I'm so accurate with it (likely due to the immaculate trigger). It's been that way ever since I bought it. I've long been thinking of...

    Which .45ACP with a Rail to buy?

    .357sig, get outta my head!:mad: I've been shooting IPSC for a few years now. I've shot the Glock 34, Glock 20 (.40sw), SA 1911, S&W 1911, and now I'm using a SV (which is a whole 'nother story). I say this 'cause owning a 1911 which works well does not mean that all 1911's are reliable...

    Smith 696

    I'm curious about that 200gr "maximum". I had a S&W 340 and 360 and both had an engraving on the lug kinda like "no less than 125gr". Seems to me I got into this with someone before as I recall calling S&W and asking about it. The lighter bullets are usually loaded with more powder to move it...

    Smith 696

    I have no clue ... but I'd like to venture a guess ... :uhoh: Unless I'm mistaken (which I may very well be), the 696 is a .44spl. Most people are quite comfortable shooting .44spl from a .44mag ... sooooo, why buy a .44spl when you can buy a .44mag? Anyhow, I just bought a Taurus .45lc...

    4 S&W revos with Hogue wood

    left: Ltd-Ed 4" 646 (what's wrong with the grip?:D ) top: 5" 629 middle: 4" 686 bottom: 3" 60 Despte the 646 being a relatively new revolver, only the 60 has the klinton-lock. (that was probably a different deal, but it's just easier for me to blame everything on bubba) Also, all guns...

    Best for White Tail Deer

    Majic, I admit I'm not big fan of .41 ... but I'm also no enemy of it. Maybe I accidentally made a good point why no one should ever consider investing in one. But, rather than argue with me about what I should or shouldn't recommend, why not make some good points for the .41 ... if you don't...

    Best for White Tail Deer

    Thanks JC! Majic, I agree, if you handload, both .44 and .41 are quite effective on whitetail. And, if you handload, .41 ammo doesn't need to be expensive or hard to find. There was a little more to it than that though. First off, I was trying to say that you don't NEED to go bigger than...

    PPK vs 442/642

    Three things: - My wife has a 642ls (fine for her) and I've had a 337PD, 360, and 340 (note that with extended pocket carry without a holster, when attempting practice, the 340 failed due to lint getting into the works ... make sure you get a pocket-holster) ... I've never been able to hit...

    Best for White Tail Deer

    Perhaps too much wango ze tango?;) JC, while I'd be curious as to why CorBon loads .357 lighter than 10mm (presuming they didn't measure velocity of 180gr BCSP from a snub), I'm not a handloader and, as such, ill-equipped to debate such issues in-depth. I only offered my observations. I...

    10 round mags for 1911?

    I own 8 Wilson Combat 10rds mags. I've used them in my Springfield and S&W for IPSC. The only problems were due to the mag-holders ... not allowing a smooth draw the top round would get kitty-wompus and, without correction (during a speed-load) would jam the slide. Two things: 1. Get...

    Best for White Tail Deer

    I really don't care to get into a whole .357 vs. 10mm thing ... and if you've tried moon clips and don't like 'em, I understand and I'd probably go with .357 over .41 just for the cost of practice ammo (presuming you don't handload) and I'm all about practicing to become proficient. Having...

    No ALMOST this time. Got a new gun today!

    Best for White Tail Deer

    I'm no expert ... but, I did take a doe last November with my Glock 20 (10mm CorBon 180gr BCSP 1320fps ... put in a 20lbs recoil spring just for that load). For an all-around revo, the 10mm is an excellent choice. Moon clips afford fast reloads for competition or self-defense. And, from...
