Good afternoon all. Yesterday afternoon, I came home from the range and set up to clean pistols in the kitchen. I had four handguns laid out on the counter and I was working on the fifth when my daughter came up from her basement apartment with her new boyfriend, whom I had not yet met. It...

Good afternoon all. I was at a gun show yesterday. There was a table full of crudely made, single shot pistols. I asked the guy at the table what they were and said that I did not recognize them. His reply was that he had made them himself. I said they were reminiscent of the zip guns...

I bought this weapon a few months ago, and I have not been able to break any time free to shoot since. I can't complain. Business is good and my crews are very busy. Back to the gun. I bought this on Black Friday. It was LNIB, and appeared to be unfired. I got the pistol and four...

Good evening all. I am off on a road trip this week crossing Missouri and into Arkansas. I went to USA Carry to check the reciprocity maps to make sure I am complying with the law. According to USA Carry, Missouri honors every state CHP except Vermont. What did Vermont do to Missouri?

Today, Scheel's had WWB 9mm, and there was a pretty good quantity. They have had .40 and .45 on the shelf most of the time for the last few months, but 9mm has been hot and miss. The pre-panic price for 100 round WWB was 26.99. Today's price was 29.99. Pre- panic .45acp was 46.99 and...

It has been months since I have seen any 9 mm on the shelves. Today I stopped by Walmart and there were a dozen boxes of this. They limited me to three. Has anyone used this? It says on the box that it is made in Serbia.

Good morning. We have all read about the current situation. At most of my local stores, prices are way up, and stock is low. My local Scheel's store, however, has been holding proces to the pre panic level. Most of what comes in goes right back out, and stocks are low, but the prices and...

I have some cash on hand, and I am interested in the Colt Defender. It has been hard to find reviews of this pistol, and some of them do not seem all that positive. So far I have seen that they will not take standard 7 round 1911 magazines and, in the opinion of a few random people making...

I have been looking at this for my next pistol. Does anyone own one? How has it performed?

I went to the gun show today and came home with a Gen3 Glock 19. This pistol has a large following, and I have been curious. I look forward to my first range trip.

I finally had enough of a break in a busy work schedule to take my first shots with my long anticipated Ruger SR 1911. As I said a week or so ago, the fit and finish are excellent. I have spent some time familiarizing myself with the weapon and today was range day. I fired 200 rounds of 230...

What is the function of the plunger tube between the slide stop and the thumb safety? There is a spring and at one end there is the slide stop plunger and at the other a safety lock plunger. It looks like the spring is there to put tension on the slide stop and thumb safety. Is this the...

It is finally here. I picked it up over my lunch hour today. The fit and finish is delightful, as expected. I had no time to go any further with it. Pictures and a range report as soon as i get this <expletive> alarm system working.

There have been many threads here, and on other boards about the out of box problems with the Kimber Solo. They disappeared from the LGS shelves at the beginning of the discussion. The last few gun magazines I have received, as well as the most recent issue of America's 1st Freedom, have ads...

I bought a .410 shotgun today. While walking through Cabela's today i saw one of these on the used rack: I have a picture on the front of my small refrigerator of me and my then future brother in law from March of 1964. I was ten years old. He and my sister took me with them on a...

I would like to thank all of you for educating me on the 1911 pistol. After considering all that I have read, here and elsewhere, I have decided on a Ruger SR 1911. I stopped by my LGS today, and I had missed one by two hours. My name is on the top of the list for the next one that comes in.

I know there are many 1911 fans here, and on just about any firearm related message board in existence. Has anyone ever put a chart together comparing the various models and features?

Good afternoon friends, Since my return to shooting a few years ago, I have been reading the deluge of pro 1911 posts, articles and reviews. I am now looking at my next handgun purchase, and I am swayed. The only 1911 I have ever fired was one of a whole lot sold as military surplus...
