    Ruger LCP

    I have carried a Keltec P3AT for several years as my always gun. I have given serious thought to the new LCP. My friend came over to shoot his brand new LCP and I was interested in comparing it with my Keltec. Unfortunately, we never got a single round down range. You could pull the...

    FL- Blind Man Shoots Home Intruder In Neck

    The local TV news, WCJB TV-20 (ABC), announced to the world that the police took the old man's gun. I know this is SOP, but that still does not make it right. Regardless the TV news let the world know that the old man is now without protection. Here's an update from the local paper...

    Tinnitus

    Wow, look at how many folks have this ringing in the ears! I have it constantly . . . cant' remember when it started . . . hardly notice it, but I cant' hear any high range sounds and sometimes have problems with hearing conversation. My wife claims it's selective hearing loss. I suppose...

    Hi Point 9mm, mag compatability

    I own both weapons you mention. I have experienced no problems with either. -- Well, I initially had to do a little smoothing work on the C-9's chamber as it did not like to extract certain ammunition brands. The C-9 (pistols) magazines will not fit the carbine. Neither the 8 rounders or...

    Anyone Considered These for CCW?

    I have had two of these jackets for several months now and I love them. They are heavy enough not to flap around in the wind or when simply moving around. I normally carry an Officer's Model 1911 or a Taurus PT-145 OWB at 4 o'clock. The jacket stays in place even when fully unbuttoned...

    To those who would deny rights to ex-cons

    Jefferson, The bigger issue to me is this. The way Leviathan grows, we may all soon be convicted felons (or worse) for simply exercising basic God-given rights.

    Fla. legislators shoot down right of people to keep a gun in their car at work

    I wrote my House Representative about the bill. He responded "it's a good bill." In fact, he sponsored the bill last year. Then he turns around and votes against it this year! He will never get my vote again, and I told him so. These same clowns had no problem in telling businesses that...

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    Took my PT-145 to my dealer again on Monday. She said she was going to send it to Taurus and demand a NEW GUN. Then she would put that new gun on the shelf and either give me a credit or my money back. Sometimes it pays to spend a bit more and purchase from a "full service" dealer. I think...

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    Update on my PT-145. Sent my PT-145 back to Taurus on Feb. 12 (via my dealer). It would not reliably feed any of several different varieties of JHPs. See my earlier posts if interested in details. It was returned by Taurus to my dealer on April 24th. Roughly 2.5 months. They claimed to...

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    Jeepmor, Glad you've have a good experience. Me . . . not so much. My PT-145 was a brand new 3rd generation . . . hopefully Taurus will make me happy . . . someday.

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    Scrappy, I sent my gun back on February 12. It is now April 15 and I still don't have it back. I sure hope that it's fixed when it is returned. Mine fed FMJs fine, but would not reliably feed JHPs. I only had the gun for about a month when I sent it back. It has been back to Taurus for...

    Taurus Millennium Pro owners?

    Freebird, I sent my 3rd Generation PT-145 to Miami for FTFs with JHPs. Otherwise I really liked it and can't wait to get it back. Just hope they actually fix it. Anyway the 3rd Generation is Single Action on every shot. It only reverts to Double Action if you have a misfire giving you a...

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    Marty, Sounds like you have experienced almost exactly the OPPOSITE of what I did. I had the nosedives only with JHPs and experienced no problems with any of the FMJs I used. It will be interesting to see what I have when the gun is returned from Taurus. I can only hope that it will...

    TAURUS PT 145 PROBLEMS

    I'm having terrible FTF problems with JHP on my new PT-145. Fired several hundred FMJs with no problem, but when I switched to JHPs in anticipation of making the PT-145 my carry gun problems commenced. I tried feeding it several brands of JHPs, but none would feed consistently. The first...

    Taurus Millennium Pro owners?

    RE: SA/DA PT145Pro I have tried Dave's suggestion (pasted below) more than once -- and I very much like it! I suppose it would be possible to have a discharge, but if you are prepared for it, it would neither be accidental or negligent. I plan on carrying my 3rd generation PT145 with the...

    Anti-freedom stance by Florida gun shop

    Thanks to everyone for their input and comments. As I understand it, "No Firearms" signs or "No Concealed Carry" signs have no legal standing in Florida. However, I will honor this shop owner's desire . . . and as I stated earlier, he has seen the last of my business. I suppose if it was...

    Anti-freedom stance by Florida gun shop

    This past weekend Pickett Weaponry of Newberry, Florida held their “Annual Fall Expo.” Over the years I have purchased several firearms, ammunition and accessories from them. (http://www.pickettweaponry.com/) As I entered their store I noticed a sign stating: "NO FIREARMS except for on duty...
