    This board sucks!

    I guess the second amendment is the only one protected on this board. Bush lied, he knew it and we should be able to talk about it here. Or does that step on too many Bush lovers toes??? :cuss: Come on moderators whats the problem? Don't a second amendment protector only, the first...

    How Firearm Incidents are Reported by The Media

    Mr Bakerr, First of all I won't go any farther with this thread except to say that you DO NOT know what my politics are, Conservative Dem. Or what my personal experience is. Twenty three years in the media most at the network level. US Army Vet, and proud of it. I went to Afghanistan with the...

    New Taurus lineup?

    I own and carry a PT111. I checked put a new 111 pro the other day and didn't really care for it. 1 It's heavy. As much empty as my old one is loaded. 2 Larger. no thanks. 3 Didn't feel as balanced as the older one. I would say that the trigger is smoother than mine was when new and the...

    How Firearm Incidents are Reported by The Media

    Therefore, all guns have to go. Demonization of all gunowners, turning them/us into "vermin" means we can someday -- soon, they hope -- be "exterminated." Afterall, isn't that what we do with "filthy vermin"??? :banghead: Mr Bakerr, You sound like you have been listening to the short wave...

    The Media

    Not all journalists are anti-gun. I know many who own, and carry. That includes me. As a journalist I do encourage folks to call any journalist on any subject that they report incorrectly. A huge part of the problem is deadlines and ratings. The sexier it sounds the more it'll sell. Where I...

    Sand and open top guns...

    I was in both Afghanistan and Kuwait with the Army as an Imbedded journo. Iam also an Army vet with Ord experience. Let me tell you about the sand and dust. No holster of any kind will give enough protection to keep your weapon clean. It must be, and troops do, wrapped in a cloth or towel and...

    CDNN mags came today.

    I would stay AWAY from the Eagle mags. I bought two 17 rounders for my Beretta 92. JUNK! Wouldn't feed, hell wouldn't even allow the slide into battery. I had to adjust the lips for that to work, then and still they won't lock the slide after the last round. I would have returned them except I...

    Yesterday at the range...

    Maybe the problem is the Glock not the WWB? I use it A LOT in a Taurus 111 and my Beretta 92 with no feed problems ever. As far as accuracy, my 92 blows the center out of the target almost every time. I am NOT a Glock hater, just not a fan. Beretta, there is no substitute.

    taurus PT-111 problem

    I posted a response earlier about this having not happened or ever hearing of it. Then, this past saturday, it did. While at the range, after about 5 rounds it stopped as if it had jammed. I called Taurus first thing this morning. They were nice about it, a new part is on the way...I hope.

    U.S. News Blurb Re: Beretta 9mm in Iraq

    I was recently an imbedded journalist with the 101st in the gulf and saw many M9's that had problems jamming. Almost all were due to dirt and not cleaning daily. The M9's I saw were old and very worn. As to the ammo, well 9mm ball, even the +p that is mil spec is not enough. Sorry to say...

    Beretta 92 firing pin spring replacement

    I ordered a replacement recoil spring from Wolff and it also included a firing pin spring. I'm normally very good with all things mechanical, but my daddy always said "if all else fails, read the directions". Problem is, I don't have them. Anyone know the procedure???

    taurus PT-111 problem

    I have several thousand rounds through my PT-111 with zero problems. I have never heard of such a problem with the 111. I have heard of a similar problem with the PT-145 and the safety being sheared off. If the pin is not snapped into place you have a problem that needs to be addressed by...

    Question about Taurus PT111...

    The new mags don't rattle when full. Nine rounds or less they do. They look the same as the old ones. My guess is a slightly stronger spring.

    Question about Taurus PT111...

    I should also mention that I called and complained to Taurus and they replaced all of my mags (4 ) at no charge.

    Question about Taurus PT111...

    I have five mags for my PT-111 and most of them rattle. It has no effect on how they feed. I have found that it also depends on they type and brand of ammo being fed. Winchester 100 round white box seems to rattle the least.
