    How about Glaser Safety Slugs?

    What is your experience and/or opinion on Glaser Safety Slugs for the .4X calibers? Would they be effective against someone with a winter coat on? What would happen with them against a car window at point blank range?

    Interested in a Semiauto 10mm. Is this any good?

    I own a Witness Elite Match in 10mm, and I wouldn't recommend the purchase of the pistol you're looking at. However, I would highly recommend the Elite series from EAA; they're not much more expensive and are held under better quality standards that the regular Witness line of pistols. Check...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    WOW! I didn't know I could "purposely" stir up this much conversation! Anyway, I just got back from Cabela's, where I bought a Dan Wesson RZ-10 (full sized 1911 in 10mm). I decided on this choice based on BlindJustice's wisdom: "No platform is 100% reliable I've had to take revolvers to...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    I started out shooting my dad's 1911 that he got from military service about 35 years ago. In the Marine Corps, I took range record with the M-16 and was immediately offered the opportunity to become a scout-sniper; I stayed with my original MOS which was computer programming and operations...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    After reading several comments on various boards, I'm not so sure that the answer to which is least likely to malfunction is obvious . . . Also, Arizona has now reversed its stance on the burden of proof for self defense: it is no longer on the defendant, but rather the state.

    Pistol vs. revolver

    With respect to pistol or handgun: I've never heard anyone (who knows what they're talking about) refer to a "revolver pistol." On the other hand, everyone has heard of a semi-automatic pistol. So when I say "pistol vs. revolver," I mean (semi-automatic) pistol vs. revolver. On this thing...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    If controllability/accuracy was my next concern, I would start with .22 LR and work up. I (believe I) can control a .357 mag better than 10mm, maybe even better than .40 cal. My intention was not to hope that one shot will suffice; rather, in choosing a round that historically has better...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    Actually, I prefer a revolver, primarily for reliability and the track record of the .357 magnum. Pistols are generally easier to carry, have more capacity, and have less recoil. But, as my wife always points out (along with some input from Clint Smith), if you can't take of the problem with...

    Pistol vs. revolver

    I wanted to gather some opinions on my buying dilemma: I've been considering carrying either a Dan Wesson Classic Bobtail in 10mm or a Smith and Wesson Model 686+ with a 3" barrel. The most important factor for my personal carry is reliability, then comes stopping power, then...

    610 smithing?

    Hexidismal: thanks for the info - I'm checking into it now. rcmodel: I'm with you - I'm obviously not a gunsmith, but I don't know how moon clips would interfere with doing an action job . . .

    610 smithing?

    Can someone recommend a gunsmith that could do some work on a new S&W 610? My gunsmith doesn't like to work on revolvers that utilize moon clips, so I'm forced to find someone else.
