    laser grips... what is the use case?

    This topic is always a source for heated discussions and probably always will be. I have owned a SW642-2 with CT grips for over three years. I use them in conjunction with a Surefire flashlight. They have improved my shooting skills beyond what I had hoped they would. I can shoot while on...

    S&W M&P--Whadaya think about it?

    I have owned my M&P 9 for almost 2 months. I am more than impressed with this new pistol. I have fired close to 500 rounds, of all types of ammo, without a single malfunction. It is the most accurate semi-auto I have ever fired. The trigger pull is smooth and consistent with every shot...

    S&W M&P Owners Check In!

    $470 is a good price. I paid $499 for mine, bought it at Sprague's in Yuma. Sportsman's warehouse in Phoenix had them for $499. Mine doesn't have the Internal lock, but does have the mag safety, which I have gotten used to. I have shot between 5-700 rounds so far without any kind of...

    S&W M&P Owners Check In!

    The M&P was designed with a "Slide Stop", not a slide release. Personally I prefer the Slide Stop just the way it came from the factory. The M&P's slide will close when a full mag is inserted, thus eliminating the need to use the Slide Stop as a Slide Release. Better yet, never run the gun...

    My wife wants to learn to shoot

    I taught my wife to shoot some years ago on a .22 Ruger Single Six. Since then she has owned her own guns..a Taurus .357 revolver, a SW Sigma 9VE, and now a SW M&P in 9mm, all of which she carried concealed. She has been through a gun safety class as well as the Concealed Carry class and is...

    What's the PRIMARY reason why you have Crimson Trace Laser Grips on your handgun?

    RustyShackelford The sight adjustment screws should never extend beyond the rubber grip. Usually only slight turning of the screws will be enough to Zero the laser. The power of the laser is the maximum allowed for Civilian use, and the red color is the easiest to see in all...

    What's the PRIMARY reason why you have Crimson Trace Laser Grips on your handgun?

    1. Accuracy in all shooting positions, even while moving. 2. A great aid to those with less than perfect eyesight. 3. Can focus on the target, not the sights. 4. Can shoot single handed while using a flashlight in the other and hit the target every time. 5. Good enough for the guys fighting in...

    S&W M&P Owners Check In!

    My only guns prior to the M&P were the Sigma 9VE and a S&W 642. I have shot my friends XD9 and I would say the M&P is similar to the XD9. I don't have a trigger pull gauge, but I would estimate it is about half the pull of the Sigma. It has been very accurate right out of the box, and I intend...

    S&W M&P Owners Check In!

    I just bought a M&P 9 last Monday. The price was $499.00, but they gave me $200.00 for my 3 year old Sigma 9VE. I loved the Sigma, not one failure in three years and thousands of rounds. The M&P is a joy to shoot. The trigger is better than the Sigma, and the 17 round magazines make quick...

    What is your favorite carry gun? Why?

    I have always carried a SW 642 with Crimson Trace grips. It is easy to carry and very accurate, even in bright sun to about 10 yards. However, I just bought a SW M&P in 9mm and I think it might replace the 642. The M&P is one of the best semi-autos I have seen in awhile. The trigger is...

    Might buy an XD9

    Tinner Man Make sure it is the newer "Enhanced" version...the Sigma40VE. It will have the light rail. I have two Sigma9VE's. I have owned both for three years, never had one failure of any kind. People complain about the trigger pull, but my wife and 9 year old grandson don't have a problem...

    Might buy an XD9

    I was all set to but an XD-9 until I found out it was imported. Now days I would rather buy American, so I am now waiting for a S&W M&P-9. http://www.sightm1911.com/lib/review/XD-9_Tactical.htm
