    Value of a Pre-Lock S&W 317 AirLite Kit Gun

    Thanks for the replies folks. I figured it would pain me to much to sell, and I would have sellers remorse. Decided to keep it for now.

    Night Sights for SCCY CPX-2?

    Thanks... might be an option if nothing else pops up... can get tritium vials for about $5 a pop. Not sure if the front sight is long enough to fit the vial without it protruding but may be worth a shot.

    Value of a Pre-Lock S&W 317 AirLite Kit Gun

    Hi All, I'm looking at selling my pre-lock S&W 317 AirLite Kit Gun. Being pre-lock, I am guessing it could fetch a bit more than one with an internal lock. It is in excellent condition. Any ideas on ballpark value, or at least a starting point? Thanks!

    Night Sights for SCCY CPX-2?

    Going to bump this in hopes of finding something... if not, I'll take it as a firm "no, they don't exist". Thanks

    Federal HST 200 gr 10mm ammo: Have you tried it?

    A little off topic, but just my personal observation from over a decade of using 10mm... published velocities seem a bit overblown in the 10mm world... especially from the boutique brands. The Double Tap 200g XTP [controlled expansion] and 200g FMJ-FP loads I have tested "only" did an avg. of...

    What is the next major advancement for pistols?

    Nothing "major" will change until the smokeless, metallic cartridge is replaced. I'm guessing the next big revolution will be in directed energy weapons. Once the power consumption and storage issues are resolved, it is feasible that laser, sound or encapsulated plasma weapons could become...

    Federal HST 200 gr 10mm ammo: Have you tried it?

    I haven't tried a factory HST 10mm loading as of yet... but I bet it would be nice... especially if the advertised velocity is produced in a 4.5"-5" barrel. I usually load my own 10mm with 200g XTP over 12.4 of Accu#9. Seems like the HST bullets hold together pretty well and expand nicely, as...

    Finally got to handle a P365 today.

    My 71 y/o father picked one up a couple of months ago... he has a few hundred various rounds through without issue. Says he absolutely loves the 365... and likes the custom Sig P365 defensive ammo best and carries that. Indeed, it is a nice feeling gun. The magazine cost is definitely a factor...

    Night Sights for SCCY CPX-2?

    Tried searching THR... and the entire internet for that matter... to no avail. Does anyone know of any night sight availability for the CPX-2? I know they make a laser... not much of a laser fan... hoping to find some tritium. Thanks!

    Is this "false advertising"?

    I recently purchased a brand new Kel Tec Gen 2 Sub-2000 9mm Glock 19 variant, and was deeply disappointed to discover a major design flaw with the integrated forend accessory rail. The owners manual and the Kel Tec website advertise this product as having a "Picatinny Rail", which is a term that...

    AR Optic Mounting Advice Needed

    Hey folks... I thought I'd post my final solution. UTG 3-notch 1/2" riser with some Weaver X-High tactical rings. It is a good bit lighter than before and seems rock solid. It is easy to remove with just my fingers and there is plenty of room for the rear sight.

    New Mark IV 22/45 Announced

    Worry not... The MSRP and the street price are rarely the same. According to Ruger... "Simple, one-button takedown for quick and easy field-stripping and proper chamber to muzzle cleaning." This alone has me sold on it. I got rid of my MKIII because of the ridiculous take-down process.

    "40 is a dead caliber"

    The .40 is not dead... it's just not the hot seller it was a decade ago. Funny thing... it's parent cartridge, the 10mm Auto, has made an impressive comeback in recent years.

    AR Optic Mounting Advice Needed

    I hear you... I have never really needed them yet either. Backup sights are kind of like freeze dried emergency food storage... you never need 'em until you really need 'em bad. I agree that UTG has very good products for the price. Obviously, there are better quality US-made options, but they...

    AR Optic Mounting Advice Needed

    Thanks for all of the great feedback folks. Greyling... I believe you have the right one... here is the link to the one I picked up: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CJ7F6Z6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It looks like the same unit you posted. Indeed, it is lower than others...

    AR Optic Mounting Advice Needed

    I was hoping to get some feedback on what would be a good forward/offset mount for an AR that has a bit more vertical clearance than this one. This UTG mount did not fit my needed application. The product lacks the height needed to accommodate the objective diameter in conjunction with a...

    Cosmoline

    Odorless mineral spirits... great stuff that easily removes the cosmoline and totally safe on the rest of the gun.

    .300 WBY MAG + Superformance Load Data?

    Ok... thanks for the feedback. I'm a little confused... it seems like Hornady has plenty of large magnum loads using the "Superformance" trademark. Do you think they are reformulating the powder to match each proprietary load? http://www.hornady.com/store/Superformance/?page=6

    I guess it's time to stockpile ammo

    I always figured the "agricultural checkpoints" were doing that already. It is a good front for blanket search and seizure of any vehicle entering the state that is deemed suspect. Maybe I am just paranoid.
