    1911 and 9mm?

    Of course the Hi Power is the 1911's brother and a great pistol. I had a Springfield that was problematic, traded it. I have a Kimber Pro Carry II in 9mm on order. If this is as reliable as my Kimber .45's it should be a great pistol. I really wanted an STI LS9, but found the slide doesn't...

    Kahr PM9/PM40 owners - are you happy with this gun?

    My PM9 is great. I just put one of those Hogue rubber grip sleeves on it and it helped the feel so much. I added a Pearce Grip extension on the six round magazine. This little pistol is now perfectly comfortable for me. Buy it. It's smaller than a J-frame S&W. You have two extra rounds and...

    .30 Carbine for SHTF/Survival?

    I have both the 9mm CX Storm and an Inland M1 made in 1944. I like them both. I really enjoy the M1. The 110 gr. .30 caliber bullet travels out of this little gun, according to what I've read, at 1990 feet per second. At my indoor range you can shoot the .30 carbine on the pistol range...

    Springfield Ultra Compact 9mm

    Ultra LW 9mm XD Shooter, I have one and love it. All the benefits of a 1911 with the pleasant recoil of a 9mm. The 3.5" barrel makes this a perfect carry pistol. It weighs 28oz empty. I have two eigth round mags and three 9-round mags that I carry for spares. It is a hoot to shoot. After...

    M1 Carbine Work

    I have a 1944 Inland M1 Carbine. It works well, but I'd like to have the springs changed and have someone give it a general going over. I know Fulton Armory works on these. Does anyone else out there take care of these little carbines? Thanks.

    Which 9mm SIG to buy for concealed carry?

    9mm Sigs I have read that the width of the of the grip on the 225 and 228 are the same. The grips are different in that the 228 grip is longer from the trigger guard to the rear than the 225. The 225 is certainly the most ergonomic. I have small hands and find that the 226 is also a good...

    Colt Det Special-Conversion???

    I have read that the 9mm round is a good performer in a snub nose revolver. Has anyone ever made a 6-shot 9mm revolver?

    Does your 9mm CZ RAMI feed 147 gr ammo?

    Wally, RAMI width?? Wally, is the RAMI as thick as a Baby Glock? Would it be closer to a 1911? I have not seen a RAMI, but someone who handled one said it reminded them of a Glock. It doesn't look that way in the photos, but pics can be deceiving. Thanks

    Best CCW 9mm?

    Springfield 9mm Ultra LW I just bought a 9mm, 1911 Springfield Ultra Lightweight. It has a 3.5" barrel, holds 8 +1 rounds, it's very flat and is a lot of fun to shoot. It's heavier than your weight requirement, it weighs 28oz, but it's a great little 1911 and is so easy to carry. You can...

    I wonder about Sigarms, I really do

    I sold my 239 so I could buy a NIB 225. It's great and for me, simply feels better. Difference in weight is negligible. For those of you who have more experience with Sigs I have a question. Is there any way to modify a 225 magazine, using the base plate of the 239,10-round magazine to...

    Who makes the best Belly Bands?

    I had a bellyband, but it really didn't work well for me, especially driving. DeSantis makes a nice bellyband. Have you see the Soft Holster? It's a shoulder holster made to wear under a shirt. Soft Holster is a horizontal rig, Kangaroo holster is a vertical. Check them out. Good luck.

    Sig 229 & 228 -- what's the difference?

    Difference-225 / 239 I had a Sig 239, then I bought a 225, then I sold the 239. The 225 was a little more expesive, they are harder to get, local shop here has several for around $600 I think. The difference in weight and exterior measurements are negligible. The 239 weighs 25.02 oz...

    mini backup

    9mm 7-shot question for scott45b Scott45b- what size frame is the 7-shot 9mm and does it come in a two inch barrel? Would it be around the size of a Colt Det. Special (if it does come in a snubby). Thanks for the feedback. AH

    M1 carbine for home defense?

    accuracy & M1 M-1's are showing up more often on these threads. How accurate are the M-1's? Do they need a lot of work? I found one made in 1944 and I'm tempted to buy it. I have wondered about over penetration of the available .30 caliber rounds compared to the .223 tactical loads. I'd...

    Sheslingers New Toy. M1 Carbine Pics.

    post range report cslinger, please let us know how it does at the range. I almost bought an Inland made in 1944, but have yet to make the step. I read the CorBon may start making a .30 caliber Pow'r Ball. This would make it a nice self defense rifle. Keep us posted.
