    Sw. Sd9ve

    Very nice gun, I've owned two of them, sold only because I'm fickle, nothing at all wrong with the guns :).

    Compact vs. Full Size

    In the years I've been carrying, I've carried everything from a Kel-Tec .32 up to a Glock 21 .45. Particularly during my twenties, I changed carry guns frequently as I tried to find the right combo for me. For me, comfort does play a large factor in what I like to carry. I have stabilized my...

    Looking for nice leather OWB holster

    I'm not making an assumption, I've tried high ride holsters before, they really don't work for me.

    Looking for nice leather OWB holster

    Thanks to all for the suggestions, I've got a few ideas. Am definitely open to more suggestions, with the reminder that I am NOT looking for a high ride.

    Looking for nice leather OWB holster

    As the title states, I want something nice, for OWB carry. Pistol is an M&P 9c. I have a solid gun belt already, so I know I need one . I do IWB carry with an Aliengear, but do occasionally dress for OWB, and also tend to open carry when I teach the KY CCDW Permit class. I'm looking for...

    Largest handgun You've ever tried to Conceal Carry?

    I used to carry a Glock 21. I have also carried a Beretta 9, full size 1911, and M&P 9 full size. Now it's an LCP, Shield, or M&P 9c depending on where I'm going.

    I've owned both, preferred the Taurus.

    Grabbed a stainless LCP today

    Trigger is long, and probably about 6-7 pounds...it's smoothing out nicely with use as well. It's a long, long cry from a tuned 1911, but it's serviceable for its intended use.

    Grabbed a stainless LCP today

    Just back from the range - ran 150 rounds through it, 75 FMJ and 75 JHP. Ran like a top, no issues at all, everything fed, everything fired, everything went where it was supposed to. As soon as I get it cleaned up, it'll ride in my front pocket in a Sticky holster :). I am super pleased - I'd...

    Grabbed a stainless LCP today

    So, being somewhat depressed with ongoing issues I'm having with my new Rock Island Armory compact, I decided it was time to address another need, a new pocket pistol. Always used to like my Kel-Tec P3AT, but used to have issues with surface rust on the blued slide. So, knowing that Ruger had...

    1911 picture thread...let's see them!

    My Springfield Loaded: I need an updated pic, it's now wearing 3M tread tape on the frontstrap and is about to get a GI guide rod.

    Faced with dilemma (M&P Shield 9mm vs. Kahr PM9)

    What's the difference? If the manufacturer declares a "break-in period", I have to fire 200 rounds WITH malfunctions before I can actually test the gun. I like 3-400 malfunction-free rounds before carrying. Thus, with a Kahr, I have to fire 5-600 rounds before I trust it. Or, if there's a...

    What's the best "value" in 1911's around $1k?

    I've had bad luck with recent boxes of PMC Bronze - had 2 boxes, both had some rounds that wouldn't chamber. Took them out and looked at them and they had burrs as described below. Wouldn't feed in an otherwise 100% reliable gun - I'm avoiding PMC in .45 for a while, which is tough in an ammo...

    Springfield 1911s

    If the serial number begins with NM, the final assembly/fit/finish work was done in the US. If it begins with just N, the entire gun was built in Brazil. The major difference that seems to be confirmed by the internet research I've done is that the NM guns have a 1-piece barrel and the N guns...

    Combat Masterpiece Value?

    Cool, thanks- I'm going to pass on it :)

    Combat Masterpiece Value?

    I got offered a Combat Masterpiece in trade for a 1911 I have listed on Armslist, and am trying to figure out a value. Has some finish wear - I'd call it 85% condition, and has Pachmayr grips. That's all the information I have before I decide if I want to meet the guy - thoughts on potential...

    S&W SD9VE Range Report

    And as of yesterday, the Sigma has been removed from S&W's website - so I think we can now safely say the SD is a replacement.

    What didn't you like about your CCW?

    My first was a Glock 19, bought on reputation. I didn't have a lot of experience with handguns back in 93, so I bought on name. Turned out it really didn't fit me well, and I don't like the grip angle of Glocks.

    S&W SD9VE Range Report

    I'm willing to bet the Sigma will be discontinued shortly, now that there's only a $10 price difference between it and the SD

    S&W SD9VE Range Report

    Cocojo, I immediately noticed how Glock-like the internals were when I field stripped it for cleaning. I see another one of these in the future for Mrs Aahzz's side of the bed....
