9x18 owners, opinions needed, PLEASE! Hey guys (and gals), I have been tinkering around with the idea of a 9x18 ... I have found two that are very reasonable so I'd like any and all experiences with either. Thanks, Ben PS: I AM NOT SURE IF THE PA-63 HAS 6 OR 7 RND MAGS... WHATEVER STOCK...

Just a quick question... When you decide what type of personal defense ammo to use, how many rounds to you run through your gun to make sure it feeds well? 1 mag, 2 mags, 25 rounds, 50 rounds??? Thanks!

Been looking around at some of these and I am wondering if anyone on here has any experience with either of these models? Fit / Finish / Accuracy / Reliability type things would be nice to know... Thanks in advance.

Been kicking around the idea of purchasing one. So if you wouldn't mind, please post a little about your experience with it. Full size or Compact? 9mm / 40s&w / 45 acp / 10mm? How do you like the trigger? Accuracy (group sizes / yards)? Recommend them? Any other helpful info! Thanks...

I just got my Don Hume IWB hoster for my Sigma 9VE and I know it's supposed to be tight, but this thing could just about cycle the slide. Since I am newer to the handgun realm, is there a proper way to break in a holster or is this normal. I can't even get the Sigma to go all the way down into...

I am just looking for an all around HD shotgun and have been eyeing a couple... and I have it narrowed down to a couple models. My question is this: Other than the obvious 2", what is the difference between 18 inch barrel and 20 inch barrel as far as performance / function??? Thanks in...

So I was cleaning my gun (Sigma SW9VE) today and decided to run some snap caps through it. I loaded the mag with them and insterted the mag and racked the slide, but it didn't go into battery (not sure if that's the proper term), basically the slide didn't go all the way forward (see picture). I...

I did a brief search, and did not find what I was looking for, so sorry if I overlooked a previous thread about it. I have a couple questions I was hoping some guru's could answer. I know the aluminum is cheaper than brass, so that's why they are less $$$ than brass casings. So, how are these...

I have seen conflicting posts about dry firing. What is the general concensus? I have a S&W SW9VE with 180 rounds through it. What is the danger, if any in dry firing my gun? Thanks in advance!

So here's my question that I have been pondering lately. A little background... I am new to handguns. Bought my first a few weeks ago. I fully intend to take get my concealed carry permit and carry. Since I have found this site, it has made think about gun law and how it applies to everyday...

Just curious what the Kel Tec PF-9 is running new/used in your area. I am thinking about getting one as a carry piece when I get my ccw, so I am price shopping. Thanks in advance.

I went to the range today with 100 rounds to fire... I have already put 80 through my new S&W 9VE, and it's been a couple weeks and I was getting the itch. Here are the target photos: I made notes on each one. I tried some different shooting stances, right hand only, left hand...

Hello, I purchased my first handgun a few weeks ago and have been bitten by the bug. I will be taking my CCW class shortly, and would like to have a revolver as my carry piece. I went to the local GS to hold a few. I was really impressed with the S&W 637 .38 spl +P. It felt great in my paw...

I searched on here for a thread close to what I was looking for, but couldn't find anything. I read somewhere on the web that it was legal to carry a loaded handgun in the car (even if you don't have a CCW) if you are on a "bonafide journey." It smells fishy to me, but I am going on a road...

I have no idea what to put into one of these things, so here's my SW9VE Sigma's first trip to the range! I went to Mark's Guns in Florence, Kentucky which is a few miles from where I work, so I am able to go on my lunch break. I got there with 100 rounds to shoot. I had followed the...

I have a S&W that I inherited from my father after he passed. It has not been very well taken care of (pitting, surface rust, etc)... So, here are my questions: 1) Is it possible for this gun to NOT repairable to firing condition? 2) How much would it cost (approximate) to take it to a...

So after having my handgun for a week now, my wife (who wasn't as stoked about the idea of handgun(s) in the house) actually mentioned she would like me to teach her to shoot, and how it might not be a bad idea if she got a handgun to. I guess she got over her aprehension when no one got shot...

I went to a gun show today and made my first handgun purchase. I was looking for a 380 or 9mm luger. The past week, I have been looking at numerous handguns online. I also hit up my local shooting range and they had several that I was able to hold. I liked the way the Bersa and Walther felt, and...
