    Yup... Says my access is blocked. I can't get to the home screen. I never had a cross word with anyone that I can recall... Not my style.

    On a whim, I just tried TFL... no dice.

    Hunting for a S&W 4506/1006 Straight Grip

    Found a dealer on Gunsamerica.com who has them... but he wants $32.00. I think I'll wait for Midway, CDNN, or something to pop up somewhere else.

    S&w 4506

    Being something of a MV aficionado... Crockett carried carried the following: - Pilot Episode: Sig P220 (probably a Browning BDA) and a Detonics Pocket 9 as a backup. - Seasons 1&2: Bren 10 and a Detonics Combat Master in an ankle holster. - Seasons 3&4: S&W 645; he kept the Combat Master...

    Hunting for a S&W 4506/1006 Straight Grip

    I have an early model S&W 4506 that came with the curved factory grips. I don't hate them, but the straight grips are a better fit for me. A few years back, factory grips could be found just about anywhere for less than $20.00. I have looked high and low and cannot find anything... anywhere...

    Single Stack 9mm

    Solid choices for single stack 9mm: - S&W 3900 series - SIG P225 or P6 (prefer the P225) - Kahr K9 I own or have owned each of these and like/love them all. That said, if your looking at a mid-size pistol, you really aren't saving on grip girth when comparing to a Glock 19/23. Both the...

    S&w 4506

    Incredible price!!! $225 isn't just a bargain, it's HIGHWAY robbery! Great find! I absolutely love mine, and the other 3rd generation S&W autoloaders I've had and have currently. My only observation in this and other threads is the loathing some have regarding the squared trigger guard the...

    S&w 5903

    Price not high... If you run a quick check on 3rd generation S&W pistols at gunbroker.com, you will notice that 400.00 is not high... not with 3 factory mags and night sights. Not sure why, but these guns are going for about what they went for new back in the day. I'm in the market for a 5906...

    Glock 23 suddenly stopped working properly...

    I've got a 2nd gen Glock 19 that I had issues first time to the range. FTFs and the gun printing low and left kept it in the safe until I did some simple research. I replaced the barrel with a new Glock factory barrel and replaced the recoil spring component. I now have a Glock that shoots...

    Are Glocks really less accurate than XD's?

    Go to youtube... and look up a guy by the name of hickok45. This guy proves that the Glock platform is as accurate as any other platform. The gunrags and their writers are often worth little more than the paper their printed on.

    9mm carry/home defense gun

    Any pistol that you can CCW can be used for HD...the priority in your strategy needs to be CCW. That said, a single stack 9mm is going to serve you well. Sig P225/P6, S&W 3913, Kahr K9.

    Price Check: S&W 63

    This is what I have been seeing as well... $675 doesn't seem to be out of bounds, but I think I will push for $675 OTD rather than $675 +BC and taxes. I think I am sticking with the 63 rather than the 317 knowing that I will be able to pass on a quality .22 to my daughter (who will be...

    Price Check: S&W 63

    anyone... How does the current production 63 stack up against the air weight 317? Am I better off with the all steel model or is the air weight just as good?

    Why has LE drifted away from 9MM?

    The universal notion that "bigger is better"... or is it "newer is better"... Two very common that have driven irresponsible spending in the personal, corporate, and government arenas.

    Glocks...Should I buy into the ugliness??

    The obsession with how a sidearm looks must be driven by something... My guess is that some of these guys are spending too much time in the mirror seeing what they look like holding their "cool" looking guns. Sad.

    Price Check: S&W 63

    NIB for $675.00 at my local GS... this a good deal or should I haggle a bit?

    Glocks...Should I buy into the ugliness??

    Who says the 1911 is a "natural" pointer??? Most target and competition pistols have an even greater grip angle than the Glock and there are some popular models that share a similar profile (Ruger, Luger, etc.). Most of this stuff is muscle memory which comes with familiarity that is bred in...

    Glocks...Should I buy into the ugliness??

    It's a tool... why does it have to be pretty or sexy? Are there folks who just have to envision themselves on the big screen holding onto what their idea of sexy is? I carry a Glock 19 because it works... plain and simple. Tons of aftermarket and if it breaks, I can fix it. In my mind...
