    Kimber making any progress on the Solo?

    When I first started hearing about these it looked like a great item and less expensive than the Springfield EMP I was considering. However, there have been reports of a number of problems with them, which I am sure they are addressing. I'm getting more serious about the EMP the longer I wait.

    Reommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs

    Thanks again for the great responses. I had pretty much discounted anything shotgun. I did consider the .410 Saiga but gave up on that. If we do go with a firearm at this point it appears to be a pistol caliber carbine, probably the Hi-point because of the pricing. I am still working with...

    Reommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs

    Actually, we did try a single shot from the CZ-82 and it was too much to handle, aside from the fact she is unable to rack the slide on it. We have talked about the Beretta Tomcat, it was in my original post. Didn't seem to get much of a reception here. The dog is not an option. They had...

    Reommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs

    Thanks for all the responses, I have been monitoring. I have worked with them on a layered strategy and cautioned them about giving out too much information. Unfortunately, this is no longer they world they grew up in where everyone you knew was a relative or lifelong friend. I have talked...

    Reommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs

    A bit more clarification. They do have a monitored alarm system and close neighbors. So if it should go off help will be summoned, but whether or not it arrives in time is another question. I'll bring up the wasp spray. Not sure if they will be confortable with that as they may not...

    Reommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs

    Recommend Home Defense for Elderly Couple w/Special Needs I have been asked by an elderly couple (70+) to help them choose firearms for Home Defense. They do not live in a particularly bad area and do not expect any problems. However, they are concerned about news reports of home invasions...

    Thinking of getting a Springfield Armory EMP 40

    Ok, I've been contemplating one of these for about a year now. After reading this I have decided to go ahead. I'm looking at the 9 because I don't have anything in 40 and don't want to stock another caliber. The only question now is which grip. I really like the look of the cocobolo, which...

    9x18 ammo

    Hornady makes their XTP in 9x18. That is what I use when I carry. I also have some of the Silver Bear HP but only use that for practice. Check out the options here: http://gun-deals.com/ammo.php?caliber=9x18+%28Makarov%29

    FN FNP 40cal.

    Anybody own or tried both the FNP-9 and FNP-40? I'm wondering how much recoil difference you percieve? I'm thinking of getting one, don't know anyone who has one, and really don't want to spend $50-$100 to rent, pay for the ammo and the range time to try them out.

    CZ 82 IWB Tuckable holster?

    I'd be willing to bet one of these from Cheaper Than Dirt would work. I just got the one listed but haven't had a chance to take it out of the package yet. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ZAA830-33.html Definitely not a top quality, figured I would use it to prove the concept before...

    Is anyone seeing .380 ammo supplies coming back up?

    As mentioned above AIM had some yesterday for a couple of hours. I've also seen it pop-up somewhere else recently. Both were reasonable prices compared to most. Keep an eye on gun-deals.com. It's free and you can even sign-up for e-mail alerts in whatever caliber you are interested in. That way...
