    Any DA/SA single stack subcompact 9mm on the market?

    Hello friends of THR, a good friend of mine is on the market for a DA/SA single stack subcompact 9mm pistol. I've told him I don't seem to remember anything like that. Do you know if a pistol like that has ever been produced? Thanks.

    My Beretta Weatherby Mark XXII .22L.R.

    Hello all friends and guests of THR. A couple weeks ago my cousins decided to give me one of the guns that belonged to their father who passed away in December 2022.

    My SIG-Sauer P226 AL SO (alot of pics)

    Hello folks of THR, I would like to share some pics of my made in Germany P226 AL SO that I bought new in March 2014. Incredible but true, I had never photographed this pistol of mine. The photos I posted here and there on THR were taken from the official Italian importer's website. As I went to...

    Diamondback FS9, why was it discontinued?

    Hello to all THR members. I have always been intrigued by the fact that the Diamondback FS9 went out of production not long after its market launch. Yet it looked like a pretty promising pistol, with a nice aesthetic, reliable, inexpensive, and receiving very favorable reviews. Do any of you...

    My new Taurus G3 (alot of pics)

    Hello friends of THR, I recently sold my nice S&W 36-2 which wasn't seeing range time at all. I wanted something that I could use more at the range without putting too much attention to it and without breaking the bank. So today morning I went to my LGS and purchased a new pistol. It is a Taurus...

    My Grand Power Q100 (a lot of pics)

    I bought this gun new the 24 December 2019. Since then it has been the only gun I shot at the range. I love it: soft shooter and scary accurate. Grip is perfect. Full ambi controls. The trigger is totally different from the other striker fired pistol: it is a smooth light pull with no real wall...

    Are Glock 25/28 blowback or locked breech?

    They seem locked breech but someone says they are not. What's your opinion and why? To me it looks like they have the unlocking block on the frame, the barrel seems to be made to lock/unlock, the slide glides above the tilting barrel during recoil but the front step on the top of the chamber is...

    Does anyone own the Remington RM380?

    Hi members of thehighroad. Does anyone here own the Remington RM380? What is your experience with this gun? What do you think about it? It seems to have many features I like: all metal construction, small, lightweight, real DAO, but I want some first hand experience from owners. Thanks in advance.

    New Arex Rex Delta 9mm polymer pistol

    Arex has introduced his new striker fired polymer pistol. It's fully ambi. The takedown needs no trigger pull and the slide pops up, not forward, pretty unique. I found a short review here: https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2019/05/jeremy-s/new-from-arex-rex-delta-pistol/ I kinda like the look...

    New purchase: a Beretta 71

    Last week I was at my LGS and the armourer showed me this .22L.R. Beretta 71 with the short barrel. It appeared to be in pretty good conditions, some little rust spots here and there (nothing a good gun oil could not cure), but it was basically unfired with no signs of internal wear whatsoever...
