    Book Review: Clancy Teeth of the Tiger

    I think Tom Clancy suffers from the same problem John Grisham does. Namely, that he has found the formula for a good book, and then just repeats it with various degrees of success. For example, Most Clancy novels simply involve the USA pounding on some other country/entity X for some reason X...

    How much does it cost to re-nickel a revolver?

    That gun looks familiar, did you buy it off Gunbroker? I remember seeing it there.

    What gun did you hear raves about online that didn't measure up?

    The real problem I think on internet forums is the hyping of weapons which are hard to find/expensive, even though most people have never fired or even handled the gun. The Sig 550, HK G36, and SIG P210 come to mind here. There are also the groups of people insanely touting some particular...

    .38 non-plus-P defense load?

    The revolver in question has a 5" barrel, so whatever I shoot should expand if it ever will. The gun is a 1950 vintage S&W M&P, and I was under the impression that plus-p ammo was a "no no."

    .38 non-plus-P defense load?

    Does something like this exist? I am looking for a good self defense load in .38 and it can't be plus-p. All I can find is LRN and FMJ!

    When was the Walther PP first available?

    I know the PP was in production prior to WWII, but was it ever imported to the US during that time, and if so, when did importation start? Thanks.

    Need holster help!

    I am looking for a IWB holster for a Smith model 10 with a five inch barrel. I heard from someone that there is a holster which holds the thick part of the gun (cylinder) above the waistband. But I can't find this anywhere, does anybody know what I am talking about?

    How Much Handgun Power Do We Really Need?

    Another aspect most seem to forget is practice. I don't want to carry something I am not comfortable shooting, or something where ammo is so expensive that I can't just take it to the range and shoot 200 rounds without my pocketbook hurting too much.

    Colt 1903 question

    Cosmetics really don't matter that much to me either, if the price is right. I am looking for a shooter, not a collectors piece, and it can always be refinished. The problem is finding one with finish problems which is not all pitted on the outside (or the bore for that matter.) That...

    Colt 1903 question

    I have tried locally, but only found one, which was reblued (nice looking though) with an aftermarket mag for $450. That is more than I am willing to spend. Especially for a non-factory mag.
