    Can I "blue" stainless steel?

    I love my 1911 but it's too bright and shiny for CCW. Can I "hot blue" stainless steel? One says yes, another says no. I need advice from an expert!

    Taurus, mag release

    I have a Taurus 24/7Pro. I like it---have had it about two years, a few thousand rounds through it and only wiped the bore a couple of times. It has operated totally flawliessly. My nephew has a 9mm and one of the 45's. They have been flawless, we both like them. So, I started looking at...

    Reason for Ruger recall of SR-9

    A young friend told me his father is thinking about buying a handgun. He likes Ruger, and asked me for information/advice etc. He likes Ruger, I do also. I know Ruger recalled their SR-9 and also that new little 380. But I don't know the exact reason for the recall. I have some idea but...

    Shoulder holsters

    Do any of you guys watch my wife's favorite martial arts tv show called "Walker Texas Ranger?" Walkers side kick Travett, the guy with the beautifull white hat, has a really nice shoulder rig. I've been looking for something just like that for a long time. Does anyone know who made it? I've...

    9mm jsp

    Just ran across a type of bullet I've never heard of before. Maybe some one "out there" can enlighten me. The ammo was marked jsp w/o grooves. I've never run across anything either with or without grooves. What goes?

    I'm prejudiced---I don't like Glocks

    Yes, I have to admit it, I just don't like Glocks. They are well made and extremely reliable. I just can't get used to the way they look. But I guess the one thing to which I really most object is the lack of a safety. That little thingie in the trigger is not a safety---it does not prevent...

    Trigger feel, Red Hawk

    Looking at some Red Hawks at one of my favorite dealers I find quite a bit of difference in trigger feel. Several of them the trigger moves smoothly back and the hammer falls. One of them was different. Trigger moved back until I felt a solid lockup, the feel you get when you manually cock...

    Still another 9mm ammo question

    I have a 9mm question, even though my preferred carry is my 1911, with "Geneva Convention" 230gr ball ammo. On occassion I find I can't avoid the need to carry my 9mm. I used to think in terms of light weight, as fast as possible. So, I have some 95gr+p Corbon. But, I understand jhp stuff...

    Stoeger Cougar 8000 (Beretta design) S&W40

    Don't presently own a 40. Strongly thinking I need one. Most of what I've looked at I really don't want, or don't want to pay their price. But, I'm looking (almost seriously) at a Cougar. I know the Beretta subsideary Stoeger makes the Cougar, and the price I've seen is about $350. Price...

    Beretta Cougar S&W40

    Presently I own several 1911's (45acp) and one Taurus 9mm, and looking for a S&W40. I've found a good looking Beretta Cougar in 40. I seem to remember that the Cougar was originally a 380 and 9mm. Can any of you tell me if the Cougar frame is a good subject for the S&W40? It's a really...

    Serial numbers on ammunition?

    Presently a number of states have legislation "in the mill" to require serial numbering of ammunition, so the police can trace back a murderous bullet to the person who bought it. It shouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what that would do to the increasing price of ammunition. We...

    Trigger pull on HK USP

    Question about trigger on HK USP 9mm pistol. In my favorite gun store I handled several HK pistols. All but one had a really nice trigger pull, but the one USP 9mm had such a beastly heavy pull on DA I absolutely could not pull that tirgger!! Was something wrong with it? Or is that the way...
