>You should try a good pocket holster I do plan to try the Mika... hear such great things about it. But, I'm pretty happy with my DeSantis Nemesis. Not as pleased with the Kramer, but it does work well in narrow pockets.

New Shoes for the 642 I haven't posted pics here before... not sure I'll do it right... Anywhoo... I love my 642. It's been a constant companion since I got it, either in my front pocket or in/on the nightstand here beside me. But, I've never been 100% happy with the stock boot grips...

Warp, I wonder when that page was last updated. Check out http://www.times-herald.com/Local/Ga-Senate-approves-Seabaughs-gun-bill-1060249 , which says in part "Colleges, technical schools, churches and bars would be allowed to make that decision for themselves." Your interpretation differs...

Hi Warp, >I both attend school and work at a college which is illegal for carry in GA, though you can have it in your car. You might want to research this a bit. I work in the Technical College System of Georgia. TCSG quietly revised its weapons policy in 2010. Whereas before weapons were...

>He also told me that a rep. with Remington told them that Marlin might quit making the Model 39, because they are to compilcated to make. Gah!!!!! <strangling motions!>

Oh, and, >Expect to pay a premium on the older rifles, but they're worth it. What would you say is a reasonable price?

Thanks guys. mister2... how can I identify the good/bad extractors, please?

I've got a hankering for a Marlin Model 39A. What are y'all's thoughts about today's vs. older guns? Is there a "golden age" for these guns? The new ones look pretty sweet to me, but I'd like to know if I should be scouting around for some other vintage. Thanks

>Thank you for the nice review on the two holsters. You're welcome. :) >I use a Mika almost daily. Everyone seems to love the Mika... I'll have to try it as well. I had planned -- still do, I guess -- to acquire a selection of the usual suspects (Kramer & DeSantis + Mika & Galco...

Holster Comparison: Kramer vs. DeSantis Nemesis Naturally, after getting my 642, finding a good pocket holster was a high priority. I did a lot of reading and web shopping, and settled on the Kramer and the DeSantis Nemesis as two top choices, and acquired one of each. After a month of carrying...

Thanks Guys Thanks guys... just the kinda suggestions I need. And, I really like your blog, RD!

Hi Folks, Got a chance to take my 642 to the range for the first time today, shooting at five yards. Bottom line: better than I expected. Back in my 20's, I owned a number of nice handguns, but didn't practice regularly. I was -- to put it bluntly -- a pretty lousy shot. I'm 50 now, and have...

New Guy Hi Folks... I had to sell my handguns a number of years ago when times were very tight (I *really* miss that pinned and recessed model 66!). I've been meaning to get at least one good self defense gun for some time. Part of the delay was "option paralysis" ... I was having a hard...

Oh? >The one about the man faking retardation to scam the government for 20 years made me laugh. Can I still get in on that? I'm not sure what the point would be, but it sounds like a worthwhile project.

Kill the Turkeys! So, we want to kill all turkeys and guinea hens on this side of the wall, but not hurt they guy out for a smoke on the other side of the drywall? I say use .38 Special Glaser Safety Slugs... the guy wolfing down a Marlboro on the loading dock might get hurt, but everyone...

Thanks Folks >Adventure Outdoors... the corner of Windy Hill and South Cobb Drive... OMG, that's where I used to go shoot 25 years ago. They're still there? Cool! (they sold me a crappy Colt Gov't .45 though... wouldn't feed anything... but, not their fault.) I'll try American Classic...

Hi, I'm in the market for a revolver... more specifically, something in the line of a S&W M60, M19, M66, M619, or M620, or possibly a Ruger SP101. Can anyone recommend a place in the Atlanta area for price & service? Thanks

Hi Folks Back in the early 80's, I worked in a gun shop and owned several nice handguns. I had to sell the guns during some very lean years (sure with I had that S&W M66 back), but am now looking to get another gun or few and start shooting again. I've been lurking for a while, and really...
