"there should be a recoil scale of some sort" This is a very interesting recoil comparison chart. http://www.chuckhawks.com/recoil_table.htm

A couple of weeks ago I got a Savage American Classic in .243. It's a beautiful rifle, nice and light, and it handles well. When I considered the scope I was in the same place you are. I didn't want to spend a ton, but didn't want a junk scope either. I did a lot of research on the optics. In...

Mitch Rosen UPL can be used stong side and crossdraw. Expensive but excellent quality.

I'm another transplant, from the West coast of Florida. Alabama is a different and better world. Instead of a bar on every corner we've got a church. People are polite and friendly (for the most part). Weather's great in winter, and not too bad in summer, compared to Tampa. We've been here nine...

Another vote for Simmons, good people to deal with, good selection, good prices.

In no particular order: 1. Marlin 39A - 22LR 2. Remington 870 - 12Ga 3. Ruger Mini 14 - .223 4. Smith Model 64 - 38 spcl 5. Smith 457 - 45ACP 6. Springfield XD9 - 9mm 7. Smith 442 - 38 spcl 8. Browning Buckkmark - 22LR 9. Winchester 1894 - 38-55

Smith 457, it's thin, reliable, reasonably priced. Plus the recoil is mild, for a compact .45

The 3rd Gen Smith semi-auto's are great. Congratulations! I have the 908 too. It's my favorite carry gun, conceals very well. Enjoy it!

See, that's what I love about this forum. A local gunsmith did some work on my Marlin 39A. and as free unsolicited extra he wrapped this great leather cord around on the lever. Until I read this posting I never thought about rust. I just went in and took it off, and sure enough a small rust...

My cowboy model holds ten 38's and ten 357's.

I've got a Marlin 1894 and a Winchester 1894, I prefer the Marlin

Smith model 64 Remington 870 (12ga) or Springfield XD45 Ruger Mini 14 Actually, that's my answer the next time someone asks which four... But, if only two, I'd go with the Smith and the shotgun.

I'm also right handed, left eye dominant. Shooting handguns, I just turn my head a little and sight with my left eye. It didn't take long to get used to it, so that I don't have to think about it. I also started to practice point shooting, with both eyes on the target. Without considering the...

I got one of the J&G Model 64's several months back, one of other the very good plus's. The trigger on mine is not heavy, it's just right. Accurate. It's my bedside gun, I don't need single action on it. I take it to the range every few weeks and practice with carry ammo. I'm very pleased with mine.

Marlin 1894 Cowboy in 38/357. I've had many hours of good shooting from it.

I also have problems with my new P238. In 100 rounds I had failure to feed, stovepipes, failure to ignite primer and the mag dropped out a couple of time while shooting. I never had a gun with so many problems all at once. I'm not looking forward to the cycle of sending to factory, testing...

I got a Mitch Rosen ARG (the express version) for my XD9 Service model. The XD9 is a little smaller than the 45, but still substantial. It works fine. Get a good belt too, it makes a big difference.

These articles are very informative, particularly the corrosion test. www.6mmbr.com/corrosiontest.html www.grantcunningham.com/lubricants101.html

That's a misleading title for this thread. I get a couple of thousand bullets every six months or so, always properly packaged in one box inside another box with packing paper. Never had a problem, but if I did, it would likely be the USPS. I get damaged mail and packages all the time. There's...
