    Browning .380?

    Could it have been a Browning 380 BDA? Browning does not make it anymore, but Beretta has one that is basically the same gun. I think it is the Beretta 84. Hope this helps.

    CC Holster for XD Sub-Compact?

    I use a Crossbreed. Tried several others before I found the Crossbreed. Have been happy ever since. I even wear ti when I ride the motorcycle and have no issues with it.

    What does your permit allow you to carry?

    In Nevada, if you qualify with a revolver, you can carry any revolver, but autos are gun specific and must be listed individualy on the permit. I qualified with both the XD9 SC and XD9 Service and both are listred on my permit. If you want to carry something else, you must qualify with it and...

    Looking for 22LR semi-auto

    As stated above, I am looking to buy a semi-auto in 22LR. I would like something along the lines of the 1911 design, but have not seen anything that fits the bill. I am not sure if I am looking in the wrong places, or if nothing like this exists. Any recommendations would be appreciated...

    I'm a cadet now.

    If your grades are good, you should look into the ROTC Scholarship. I received one in the dark ages of 1969. Paid for my college, lab fees, books and gave me $100/month spending money. Back then, that $100 was about 25% of my month income. In return, I spent 4 years on active duty. Never...

    Beltman turnaround time?

    The belt is worth the wait. I have two of these belts, one 1 1/4 and one 1 1/2. Until I got my first one, never knew what a difference a belt could make, whether I'm carrying or not.

    I bought a Beretta 92 because:

    I carried both the 45 and Beretta while in the Army. The 45 while on active duty and the Beretta when I was in the reserves. Now have both as part of my personal inventory.

    Beretta 92 mag question

    I think Beretta has a CX4 carbine that can use three different type of Beretta magazines, depending on the model you get. Mine uses the PX4 mags, but heard there was an insert that would let it accept 92 and another that I can't remember now.

    Kimber malfunctions

    I had the same issue with the magazine that came with my Kimber Ultra Carry II. On the advice of the gun store where I purchased it, I switched to Wilson's. I have not had any isues since. I was looking at another Kimber, at a different gun store last week. The first thing out of the...

    user names?

    Used to be part of a black powder gun club. Shot a 50 cal Hawken rifle. When I set up an email account, Hawken was taken, so I dropped the "e". Although I am no longer a member of that gun club, I still have the rifle, so I still have the screen name.

    642 Club Part Deux

    Just purchased a S&W 638, can I join the group? Had a Taurus that the wife has decided now belongs to her, so I looked for a replacement. Have shot about 60 rounds through it so far, and like it alot more than the Taurus. I got the Airweight version so it it a lot lighter to carry. Being new...

    Never Fired?

    Just one. New Ruger GP100 purchased last Saturday. Didn't have time to wait at the range. Hopefully that will be resolved this weekend.

    Beretta 92FS (9mm) vs. Springfield Armory XD9 (9mm)

    I have both. I use the XD 9 SC for CCW, and the Beretta is upstairs in the bedroom for HD, if needed. I find I am more accurate with the Beretta, probaly due to the longer barrel, but it is too big to easily conceal, at least for me. For dependability, either one. Have never had any...

    Starter 22 for grandson

    As the title indicates, I'm looking for a starter 22LR for my 10 year old grandson. I'm more into handguns, so I have little to no experience with rifles. First a stupid question, what is the difference in a 10/22 and a regular 22. I did a google search on 10/22, and all that came back was...

    driver fatally shot in the head

    A similer thing happened here in Las Vegas over the weekend. Mother was driving with her kids in the back seat. A car pulled up beside her at a stop sign and shot her in the head. She died the next day. According to KVBC TV, the local NBC affiliate, the police made an arrest today. "A...

    Shot my TC Hawken Rifle today

    Glad you enjoyed your first experience. As stated above, everyone forgets the powder at last once. I purchased a small CO2 unit that will blow the ball out of the barrel. Remove the nipple, press the CO2 cartridge against the hole and the pressure pushes the ball out. Remember - "Powder, Patch...

    Are there 9MM wheel guns?

    I have to admit that I have always preferred autos to revolvers, and have stayed with 9mm when I looked at additions to my collections (as small as it is, it's still mine). I currently have 4 9mm and one 380 auto. Now that California will be requiring microstamping, I thought I might want to...

    Univ. of Nevada Board of Regents Agrees to Put Carrying CCW to a Vote!

    Getting the Board of Regents to agree is probably the easy part. To actually be allowed to carry, the faculty member must attend a 20 week training course at a cost of about $3,500. You basically become a reserve campus policeman. You will be required to meet all the requirements the campus...

    New Springfield EMP

    Jimk66, Got my EMP in July. So far about 350 rounds through it without a single problem. Mostly WWB and a few JHP, just to if any problems would crop up. Mark me down as another one that loves this little gun. It has become my carry weapon, replacing my XD9SC. If you do find a decent...
