    Need a new one piece .22 stailess steel rifle cleaning rod

    I bought my uncoated stainless steel cleaning rod from Dewey. Don't know if you like the style of handle it has but for me I've used Dewey products for years and like them very much.

    NRA "Thank You" Thread

    I sent in my membership application just this past Monday after a three year hiatus. I eventually want to become a lifetime member but I can't afford it right now. Thanks to the NRA, pro 2A advocates, and others, I really appreciate all the effort. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Lightweight snubbies

    I bought a Model 638 Airweight last fall which is my first J frame revolver and the first thing my FFL dealer said to me was that I should expect a bit of recoil. I don't consider myself to be recoil sensitive but shooting this revolver with the stock two finger grip was uncomfortable to say the...

    House Gun Opinion?

    I vote for the 1911 pistol as the primary HD gun and the revolver as a BUG. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    recommendations for first handgun?

    My very first handgun was a Taurus PT99 (Beretta 92F knockoff). If I could do it all over again, my first handgun would have been a S&W Model 686 Plus with 4" barrel. BTW, the Taurus is long gone and the Model 686 Plus is still around. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    Good Range Piece

    I love to shoot my S&W Model 686 Plus with 4" barrel. Accurate when I do my part and fun as heck. For semi auto, my Glock 19 is my go to gun for home defense and range fun. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    My .22 pistols are the most valuable handguns in my collection.

    At the moment, my S&W Model 41 is the most expensive handgun I own. But now I am wanting a Dan Wesson 1911 Valor or Specialist. :D Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Shooting gloves

    Thanks all to those that gave honest considerate responses to my OP. The first time I shot my S&W Air weight Model 638 which I bought a few weeks ago I shot about 300 rounds and a third of that was +P rounds. It did take a toll on my shooting hand which I had carpal tunnel syndrome. I give you...

    Shooting gloves

    Anyone knows of a company that makes quality shooting gloves? I bought a pair a few years ago and they fell apart after a few uses. I tried ordering from Gripswell but they screwed up my order and I definitely will not order from them. I am looking for gloves to use when shooting my S&W Model...

    Revolver newbie

    I just received my new S&W Model 638 yesterday and I'm just loving it. I was looking at the 357 magnum version (Model 349) but decided that I would not be using magnum rounds in a lightweight and small frame revolver. I'll shoot magnum rounds through my large frame Model 686+ revolver. The J...

    Saving for a revolver

    I just purchased a new Model 638 from Bud's Gun Shop for $397 shipped which is in your price range. It looks like a fun revolver. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    S&w 686

    Damn, a 4 inch barrel on a revolver is illegal in Canada?!?! Hawaii gun laws are really bad but Canada laws really suck:D. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    How do you get a scratch off a SS slide?

    I would try Flitz first if it is fine surface scratches. If it is really gouged, you could use fine steel wool or scouring pad but it will leave swirl marks. Sent from my DROID RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    Best .22lr Handgun around $500 or Less

    :D+1 RTFM, watch a YouTube video, field strip the frickin gun a few times and it is all good. Read so many negative posts and feedback about taking apart the Ruger but when you look at all the available references on the Internet field/detail stripping is easy to do and understand. Sent from...

    concealable stopping power?

    If I could CCW (I'll keep dreaming :D) I'd go with my Glock 30. 10 + 1 rounds of large caliber goodness. Sent from my RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    Which glass would you put on a 10/22 Target

    I'm sure you won't go wrong with any of the scopes the OP listed. For me, after a little research I went with a Nikon ProStaff Target EFR rimfire 3-9X40mm scope. Also using Burris Zee Signature medium height scope rings. Sent from my RAZR MAXX using Tapatalk 2

    guns that exceeded your expectations

    Of all the hand guns I own, the one that exceeded my expectations in areas of accuracy, enjoyment in shooting, and finish is my S & W 686P with 4" barrel. I can shoot it all day or until I run out of ammo.

    Lack of Respect for the 10mm

    I would love a 10mm just to have as it is kind of an novelty here locally. Ammo is virtually nonexistent locally and if can be found it's expensive. I'll stick with my 9mm, 45acp, and .357 magnum unless I win the Megabucks. Oh wait, Hawaii doesn't have a lottery:banghead::cuss::what::fire::D

    revolver for a lifetime

    First revolver I feel in love and still have is my S&W model 686P 4" (7 shot). It's a great shooter, very accurate when I do my part, and will definitely outlast me. It's not a pocket gun but still easy to wield in and out of my holster. Can't wait to shoot is again next open day at the range.

    22lr handgun suggestions?

    I'd go with a Ruger Mark III Hunter with a red dot optic as my first choice. I also like S&W .22LR revolvers. For ultimate shooting pleasure and accuracy, a S&W Model 41 with an Aimpoint Micro H-1 red dot optic.
