    New concealed gun

    I have carried a S&W 442 (.38 snubbie) for two years in my jeans or dress pants pocket. I was lucky enough to find one without the factory lock. The one downside maybe is the capacity of only 5 rounds, but if you need more than that you may have bigger issues anyways. Every time you pull that...

    Crimson Trace - How they do that?

    Hmm, the guy at the store told me the premium model laser knows what you are aiming at, so it bends to get there. I bet you got that model, just like mine :D ~maybe

    Can anything beat the EMP?

    I am looking for a 3" 1911 in 9mm and wondering if any of the other ones out there can beat the EMP. The searching and articles I read give rave reviews for the EMP but there aren't many that compare others in that same category. By only saving a couple hundred bucks it may not be worth it to...

    First Pistol

    Start with a 9mm, then in a while get a .45 1911. I love shooting my Kimber 1911 and have an xd-9. .45 gets to be hard on the wallet too. Careful though, once you get that first one, it may never stop:) My first one was the xd-9 and I bought it to carry-big mistake. Its a great gun but IMO not...

    CCW Revolver: S&W 642 v. S&W 60 v. Ruger SP101

    I bought a 3" Model 60 to carry in a shoulder holster, and after a couple months I decided it was to heavy. I bought that because it was a good range gun, decent sight radius and figured I would 'make do' while carrying. Then I came to my senses and bought a 442 (black 642) for pocket carry. It...

    380 in a .38?

    Ahh! And if the gun cylinder is not cut for moonclips than they cannot be used? Its all becoming clear now:rolleyes: I may have pondered that all night-all I have to do is come to the pro's! Thanks

    380 in a .38?

    I sold my P3AT and I just found a new White box of .380's. My instinct tells me no, but could I shoot the 380's from my .38spl Airweight? (Same bullet diameter right?) I could see there being build-up in the cylinder where the .38 case would be, so I would have to clean that before going back...

    Cabela's prices on new guns?

    I am having a .44 transfered from WV to MN and they are charging me $35, regardless if I buy it or not. (So they say) I have not negotiated with them yet though, so we'll see. I have gotten some good offers from Cabelas in the past-around x-mas time I got a coupon for $100 off a $500 purchase...

    Super Redhawk Problems?

    I am looking to buy a super redhawk (.44) and found a used one with a Burris 3x scope for 600 dollars. Around here new they are 700. Ruger's website says it was made in 1998(#551-360##), is there anything to worry about with it being that old? Or is it like the S&W's from the mid-ninties, maybe...

    Kimber .45 Help/Clarification

    Awsome, advice well taken-save the money for ammo! Now the other thing that came to mind was 3" or 4"?? It appears that the frame/grips are the same, and I carry a kel-tec in a pocket so I am not to worried about deep cover. Does the longer barrel hinder the carry IWB or maybe shoulder? It...

    Kimber .45 Help/Clarification

    I am looking into a 3" .45 Kimber, and have come down to two models. The Stainless Ultra Carry II at $850, and the Ultra CDP II at $1050. The Ultra carry does not have night sights, otherwise they are very close to the same it seems. Can anyone shed some light on this issue? How do they...

    No guns allowed, what to do?

    In MN there are a few places off limits, ie schools, courthouse, fed buildings, etc. If the business is posted you may walk right through the signs, and if a 'managment member' asks you to leave and you refuse then you are subject to up to a $25 fine!(o boy) In most cases your piece should not...

    When was my SW .357 made??

    I bought a used Smith model 60 in a 3" last night for $375, and with the help of the 'Buying a used revolver' thread determined that it is in prestine condition. I am wondering when it was made because it doesn't have a lock on it. Serial CBC88** On the bottom of the handle there are also...
