    any full size M&P users

    I purchased the full size gun with the 4.6 inch barrel in 45acp. This doesn't have the threaded barrel. It came with two 10 round magazines. This is my first gun in 45acp so I wanted full size. I haven't been disappointed with it. I like having the interchangeable back straps to get the correct...

    STOEGER STR 9SC

    You better get it while you can. They list 6 Canik mags and that is the only model they have in inventory.

    STOEGER STR 9SC

    I've been looking at buying a Stoeger also, but they have a problem with magazine availability. I won't buy a gun I can't get parts for. They also only have a five year warranty. I'm now leaning in the Canik direction. Parts are readily available and a lifetime warranty.

    Initial impressions/review and video of Stoeger STR-9 and comparison to Glock 17 and 19

    It looks like Joe Bob Outfitters has the 15 round magazines in stocks for $36.95. I have no experience with them.

    Initial impressions/review and video of Stoeger STR-9 and comparison to Glock 17 and 19

    Have you shot it much since your review? I've been researching them and I have some birthday money laying around. With the $50 rebate running again I've been very tempted. It would be a range gun as I have plenty of others for carry. Spare magazines are not to be found at this time. That...

    First experience reloading for 45 acp

    The last time I bought any powder was during the Trump administration. I'm sure I'll experience sticker shock. Availability is still an issue. Universal has been working good in my 380acp but I'm going to need to replenish. It meters well for me and burns clean. I'll need to see what is...

    First experience reloading for 45 acp

    Thanks for the input guys. I think being I already have the #5 I will start with that and go from there. I do have some Universal I load 380acp with. It would be nice to have a powder I could use for two calibers. I like a powder that meters well and burns relatively clean.

    First experience reloading for 45 acp

    I have some Accurate #5 on hand for some 357 mag loads. Do you think that would be better to start with?

    First experience reloading for 45 acp

    At this time I reload for three handgun and three rifle calibers. I just purchased my first pistol in 45 acp. I have purchased several boxes of factory ammo to take this gun on it's madden voyage. I'm in Idaho waiting for the rain and snow to subside so I can get out and shoot. Mean while I'm...

    "Itis" issues...

    I have both the 9mm and 380acp S&W EZ pistols. Some people don't like the grip safety design on them. It hasn't been a problem for me. They may not be the most accurate guns but they will get the job done for self defense. With the rebate program running now makes it a good time to pick one up...

    Current Pico

    Changing the recoil spring was one of the first things I tried,

    Current Pico

    I think these small pocket guns are a challenge for gun manufacturers. They are a challenge to make in the parameters of a pocket size gun and operate without problems. They are also a lot more challenging for the purchaser to shoot well. Beretta released this gun to the public without...

    Current Pico

    I bought a new one several years ago. It does have a heavy trigger but it is a pocket gun. Lately it has developed a feeding problem where the nose of the bullet will hit the feed ramp but will not travel up and into the chamber. Tried all four of the magazines I have as well as a different...

    380 pocket carry choice

    I have a Pico also and would like to change the recoil spring. Are you getting the spring from Beretta or someone else? Thanks

    380 pocket carry choice

    I have read quite a lot of complaints from people having their magazines come out of their pocket pistols while the gun is in their pocket. I purchased a Beretta Pico like Tallball mentioned above. It has a different mag release than most of these pocket pistols in that you pull down on the two...

    9mm vs 380

    I would advise you to to check out the S&W 380 EZ. I've had mine for one year this month and really like it. My first 380acp was a Beretta Pico in 380acp. It is a nice gun but more snappy to shoot than the S&W EZ. Another nice feature of the EZ is the magazines are also designed to be easy to...

    Rossi 92 in 357

    I have a Winchester M94AE in 357 mag. It is a saddle ring carbine with the 16 inch barrel. I found the ring was more in the way for my use and had it removed. It's a great little gun for plinking and to bum around with. I found it shoots well with 180 grain hard cast bullets and use them...

    Smith&Wesson 380ez 2.0

    In this present time I think the OP got a great deal on that gun. I've had an EZ in 380acp since June of 2021. I'm very happy with the gun and it runs factory and my reloads without a problem. I like the size and it fits my hand very well. The design of the magazines make them easy to load. I...

    do you own and shoot a .380?

    I bought a Beretta Pico in 380acp a few years ago and it's a great pocket gun. I wanted something in 380acp that was a little larger and went with the S&W EZ. I like the size and performance of this gun and is a definite keeper.

    Locked breech .32 or .380 pistols that aren't tiny pocket guns?

    I was in a similar frame of mind as you a couple of months ago and was looking around at what was available in 380acp. I have a Beretta Pico in 380acp and wanted a larger gun in that caliber. I checked out the S&W 380 EZ and liked it. I bought it and am very pleased with it. I like the size and...
