Due to several things outside of my control, I cannot carry concealed to or while at work. Which means my decent walk from where I park to where I work is unarmed. I've taken to training with and carrying a collapsible baton and was curious of others do as well? If not what do you do for similar...

I just traded for a 686-3 6" with a BHP serial number. This gun has a pinned barrel, a trigger overtravel screw and an amazing action job. Whoever did the work knew their stuff. My question is about the pinned barrel. I thought once Smith & Wesson stopped pinning barrels, it was because they...

I picked up an Austrian made 3rd generation Glock 32 recently (new) and took it to the range. It ran 100% but I noticed an odd recoil "sensation" I hadn't experienced with previous Glocks, including others chambered for 357SIG. It almost felt as though the recoil was making the slide sort of...

I have been looking for an affordable but quality polymer framed pistol to use for home defense and occasional concealed carry for a little while. I had narrowed it down to another Glock (boring), maybe an XD (too "blocky" feeling and I hate grip safeties) and the CZ's, FN's, Walthers and S&W's...

I just got a Remington R1 (standard model) and haven't shot it yet. I picked up a box of Gold Dot 230gr ammo and can't get the gun to load a round on a full mag. A single round in the mag seems to do much better, although still not 100% like ball mostly is. I know the gun needs to be broken...

I am in the market for a pocket revolver and I only want to do this one time. I am very fond of the 442/642 S&W's and shoot them well. I've held but never fired the Ruger LCR and it seems like a nice gun. I plan to use this as my primary EDC, home defense and something my wife can grab at the...

So my sister might be seriously considering her concealed weapons permit, or at the very least a defensive handgun. My mom too, actually. Neither of them are shooters but I feel confident they could handle a rimfire revolver. I am just undecided on the caliber. I am leaning more towards the 22LR...

I'd like to pickup a real Marlin chambered for 45-70. I prefer the pre-crossbolt-safety models. Did they make them back then? I'd also like something without a ported barrel. I don't know a lot about the different models so I need to know if what I am looking for is even out there. Anyone?

My wife is not a shooter. She probably never will be. Back when we first got married, she went to the range with me once or twice, but I doubt I'd ever get her back again any time soon. I am okay with that, but I do want to make sure that if the need ever arose, she could defend herself. She...

I just posted my LCP for trade and want to get in to another snubby. I miss my old 442 but I really want a 357. I was thinking that new LCR in 357 would be nice. Any thoughts? How do they compare to the S&W j-frame's?

Decided!

So my parents had some interesting things happen last night. My sister (adult) is staying with them while she is going through some physical therapy for torn ligaments in her ankle. She had looked outside for some reason and noticed that the dome light was on in her car. She thought it was...

I Didn't (Did) Buy A Mousegun... In this post, I had determined I would go with a Kel-Tec P32 as opposed to the other options available on the market for an ultra-compact "mousegun". I wanted something super small which I could slip in to the front pocket of a pair of athletic shorts for...

I know the weight and price difference, but I've only shot an older P32 and that was some time back. Is there a big difference in QC, trigger pull, sights, things like that? The P32 is ideal for me because I'd want something I can toss in some shorts pockets and go take a walk through the...

From the way it reads, he was shot once through the shoulder and in to the vitals and died from blood loss. I have it on somewhat good account that the issue sidearm is a 9mm Glock, however, as this was a SWAT Officer, he may have been using something different. Either way, being a handgun, it...

I'm in the market for a .270 for hunting Whitetail here in SC. I am reading a lot of recommendations that a 24" barrel is a minimum for this caliber. Is this more load specific and dealing with things like pet loads somebody is working up? Or would the extra 2 inches make any difference with...

A while back, there was a large picture of a bunch of different mouse guns floating around. Does anyone have that? Maybe a more updated version?

Local shop has a 1950's (what they said) pre-MKI .22LR for $189.00. He said he'd go $179.00 cash but that's it. It looks to be a bit rough, but these things seem just about indestructible. I don't think the mag is original but otherwise it seems solid. It's missing most of the bluing, pretty...

I own one handgun, a Glock 19. I've owned tons over the years, but shoot much less now (unfortunately) than I used to. I like the 19, it seems to be the best compromise between concealment, affordability and performance over any other "one-gun" solution (IMO). However, living in the South...
