    Suggestions for CCW .22LR

    If you're dead set on a .22LR, check out the Buckmark Challenger II and/or the Buckmark Micro. Buckys are generally held in high regard, are accurate and reliable. -- Sam

    Converting bb guns to real ones?

    +1. I'm fairly certain this was a run-of-the-mill BB gun and the newswriter is just hyperventilating. This is from Britain, you realize. Home of the people who want to ban 'pointy' knives because they're too dangerous, as well as pad lampposts so people text-messaging while walking (and not...

    Next Generation Arms, Tidewater, OR - AR clones

    Anyone got a pointer to a dealer who sells Noveske? I keep hearing about them but can't find a place to buy them. -- Sam

    Next Generation Arms, Tidewater, OR - AR clones

    Thanks for the replies. The Noveske's look good too, but pose a similar question: Small shop, maybe somewhat of a following, but will the company withstand the test of time (and our wonderful legislative/control system) as well as a larger vendor? As for prices: I can get the basic NGA...

    Next Generation Arms, Tidewater, OR - AR clones

    Is anyone familiar with Next Generation Arms (NGA) of Tidewater, OR.? These guys are just down the road from me a bit, and I'm trying to find out more about them. Pretty small outfit turning out allegedly high quality AR rifles. Ceramic coatings and a hydraulic buffer standard. 60% reduction...

    AR-15 sight question

    AR-15 sight question

    I'm looking into my first AR-15, which is an M4 config with a detachable handle, and have a question: Does the front sight post in this setup obscure the view from a red dot or scope? Is the sight removable? Or would I be better off going for a full flat top, no front sight model if I plan to...

    S&W model 14 info request

    Well, I haven't quite gotten to the point of smelting and casting yet, but I'm reloading for .45 Colt, .45 ACP, .44 mag, and .243 now, and I've got the .38/.357 dies on order. Oh, and I'm shooting a lot of .22, too. :D Thanks for all the replies, and the offline help, SaxonPig! -- Sam

    S&W model 14 info request

    Ok, here's another angle: What exactly is the difference between a model 14 and a model 15? I found a decent model 15-2, 6", target hammer & trigger, adjustable sights (which I think is standard on the 15). It even has the red front sight insert. My goal is to get a .38 only, tt*h, with a...

    S&W model 14 info request

    Ever since missing out on one in a local gs I've been jonesing for a model 14. My interest was recently rekindled, and I started poking around, only to find an array of models and prices. Can you guys give me the skinny on what changes came with the "dash" revisions, where the Target...

    Anyone have experience with JMG Holsters?

    Yeah, at the prices he's got it's hard to go wrong. It's not going to be a great holster, probably much like an Uncle Mike's cloth one, only made of leather. For $15-25, why not? Yep. And aftermarket parts. There's something to be said for going with the herd. ;) Just ask my Springfield...

    How to best carry a BHP

    In a holster. :D I like my Don Hume 721 "Double Nine". Works great, very comfortable. Given that the gun is a single action, meant to be carried C&L, I like the thumb break. I also have an El Paso Saddlery "Tortilla" for a similar sized gun (AR-24), and it too is a fine holster. Even...

    Recommend a good compact .40 S & W please!

    It's not DA/SA, but I too recommend the XD-40. Picked one up a month ago and am still in love with it. Mine's the sub-compact. Very, very accurate for such a small gun. -- Sam

    need a recommendation...looking for a skinny 9mm

    You know? To be honest I never looked at the SR-9's capacity. I handled one in the shop the other day and thought it was a single stacker, it was so skinny. I have read an article indicating it may not be the most accurate 9mm in existence, however. What's "homer"? As in, "Doh!"? :D -- Sam

    Which 9mm would you buy first?

    Hi-Power, followed closely by the CZ, though I would also look at the AR-24, which is basically a CZ with better styling and forged parts. -- Sam

    Beretta 92

    Maybe you should have that Hi-Power looked at. ;) I had a 92FS years ago and sold it specifically because of the long, heavy, stacking trigger. My BHP is light years above the feel of that gun. I really, really wanted to like the 92FS, too. I always thought it was way too big and heavy for...

    Holster for a cz-75B?

    I have an El Paso Saddlery "Tortilla" for my AR-24, which is basically a CZ-75B with slightly different styling. Their mold for this gun is a EAA Witness/TZ-75. I just checked it, and it should work fine with the CZ. My trigger guard is rounded where the CZ/TZ is squared, but the holster...

    Sigs

    Yep, sweet deal, o/u mike. Congrats! I just picked up a blued P232 on Saturday for $499. Even Buds Gun Shop, which often has the best prices on the net, is currently getting $505 (shipped) on the blued one; $700 for the SL with Hogues and night sights. I'm a very happy new P232 owner! -- Sam

    Sig Sauer P226/P228 Magazine Base Plate ?'s

    Hope that works for you. Along the same lines, does anyone know where I might find steel replacement baseplates and followers for Sig P232 mags? Just got the gun and love it, but dislike polymer parts in such applications. -- Sam
