    Interesting Afternoon At The Department Of Motor Vehicles

    Try reading "Guns and Ammo" on a plane sometime. You'll be surprised how often you'll end up with an "empty" seat next to you. Just another one of life's little pleasures I've found.

    Hiking the Appalachian Trail

    Wishing you the best of luck I read "A Walk in the Woods" by Bill Bryson while I was in Kuwait last spring and the AT is a new life-goal of mine. Check it out if you haven't read it yet. Also, get yourself a nice slingshot to keep your mind busy and your aim sharp along the trail. Maybe you...

    S&W 327 M&PR8 vs TTR8

    top rail concerns After I bought my TRR8, I noticed that the front sight couldn't be seen with the top rail in place, but I've seen other TRR8's with the grooved rail like with the M&P. I called Jim Rae at the S&W Performance Center and he told me that the first TRR8's had the old rail without...

    Try it out Put it in the garage for a trial run. Leave it empty except for one of these silica thingies. Make sure you match the size to your safe...

    usp 40, or 45?

    What do you mean it's jumpy? I would think the .45 would be "jumpier." Which caliber do you prefer for you needs? Also, the Universal Self-Loading Pistol .40 is almost a quarter-inch shorter if that makes any difference. -Magnum

    walther p22

    Keep the barrel tight. I agree, it's a great little gun. Did you get the 3.5" or the 5" with the stabilizer on the front? I recommend checking the barrel with the wrench when you have it apart next time. Mine would occasionally start to work it's way loose. Also make sure you hang on to...

    My first 45 that's NOT a 1911: Sig P220 Carry Equinox

    Beautiful! That's a great looking piece. I've already got a standard 229 with .40 and .357 sig barrels, but I've been looking pretty hard at the Equinox line. I like the rail option and I think that brushed slide and the wood grips look pretty sharp. How do those grips feel compared to the...

    I haven't really formed an opinion about this yet. Just thought I'd share it. The comments below the article are pretty humorous. http://lacrossetribune.com/articles/2007/02/21/news/02weapons21.txt

    Handgun storage in safe?

    Thanks! Thank you all for the great input. Keep the ideas coming because I'm sure there are some great innovations we haven't touched on yet. I just ordered one of these little guys from cabela's...

    Handgun storage in safe?

    I've started to have a wonderful problem lately. My handgun count is beginning to exceed the holding capacity of my safe. Right now, it's like some kind of sick jig-saw puzzle to get them all laying down without touching. I'm not looking for advice like, "Get another safe." I would just like...

    reporting ebay illegal activity

    From your signature, it looks like you have the strong moral values to do right when others do nothing. Ebay's policy is probably to protect themselves...not to keep guns out of the hands of criminals. If you rationalize it by saying that you were just helping that individual avoid doing...

    SA/DA/DAO

    I just saw Dick Metcalf on Guns and Ammo TV talking about single action, double action, and double action only revolvers. The way he explained, single action means you can fire the gun "only one way"...cock the hammer and pull the trigger. Double action means you can fire the gun "two...

    Rails on Autoloaders....Ya or Nah!!! Vote

    Hehe...you said tittle. I like the idea of rails because it gives you the option of an accessory. It doesn't mean you have to mount one.

    My new tactical revolver

    You guys are funny! That's not a lock key-hole on the left side near the cylinder latch...it's a USB port. I can upload ballistic data directly into the gun's hard drive. At least that's what I tell myself because I couldn't care less if my Smiths have the hole or not. All the hole does is...
