    Can't find Colt 1911s for sale.

    Mike's Guns in Richardson, Texas has a NIB 1991 A1 for $519.00 but I do not know if it is roll marked. Mike is a nice man and did a hitch in Vietnam in the 'Corps. A 1911 saved his life twice I know of.

    Best O/U for $2000 or less

    Don't even think about a Beretta Blackwing/Whitewing. They skimp on metal in various places to save money and the result is a very light inertia trigger driven O/U that will not recock the trigger on the second shot if you do not shoulder the weapon well. They kick like mules and are butt heavy...

    Different angles of the new Ruger KP345

    Nice looking gun. I tried to buy one then my dealer reminded me with Ruger's track recordm, these will be on the shelves in 2006. I will stick with my 1911 SA Mil Spec.

    Should I buy the gun in the display case?

    1911'S NO. DO NOT allow the slide to slam home on an empty chamber. How many " Barneys " have you seen do just this at a gun store.

    Springfeild Mil-Spec good deal or pass?

    Keep in mind SA's are built heavy with tolerances on the plus side. I did the research and from what the factory told me and what I have learned from other 1911 folks, you need to shoot the fire out of an SA to loosen it up. I called the Factory and complained that my mags on my Mil Spec (not...

    The Glock kB thread got me thinkin...

    Ina shtf scenario, my biggest concern would be a steady supply of clean water followed by food, medicine and then safe shelter. Gun wise, give me a .22LR revolver and lever action rifle. I can store hundreds of thousands of .22 LR HP's for a small investment. That handgun you baby now in the...

    449.00 Okay for a 1911 SA Mil Spec (not the GI45)?

    OI just cannot afford any more than one pistol right now and I felt like if I had to narrrow it down, the 1911 .45ACP was the way to go. I went into the guns shop and they had marked it down from $529.00 to $449.00 which seemed like a good deal. Thanks folks.

    Pic of Rugers new Kp345 45acp

    Mike: The dealer I talked with is large volume. He pointed out that Ruger is always very late on delivery like with the side by side shotgun. He called all the master distributors that sell for Ruger and none of them have plans to deliver the 345 in May of this year. I was prepared to buy one...

    Pic of Rugers new Kp345 45acp

    guys I just talked to the owner of a large gun shop in Dallas. He sis some chekcing for me and in typical Ruger fashion, it may be 18 months before these hit the market for sale. I hope I am wrong but in our phone conversation, the owner pointed out examples from the past on how Ruger makes a...

    Bought an XD9, seems pretty neat

    Marshall: settle down. think about what you just posted. I have heard of more than a few whop had rust issues. I see the finishes improving significantly each time my favorite gun dealer gets new ones in. I do think it was a valid point of condern. That said, I like the weapon and it feels...

    Bought an XD9, seems pretty neat

    I am glad to hear that the majority of you are having good luck. I likew tge guns and frankly, the wearing of the finish is not an iisue as long as they are not prone to rust with regular maintenance.

    I am confused

    All this is a symptom of allowing senators and congressmen to serve more than two terms in office. Other symptoms include: giving yourself a raise each year, having the finest medical and retirement in the world after one term in office and the fact politicians hate it when blue collar workers...

    P-9 covert problems

    Sorry fellas. I learned about Kahr early on with one that choked, i mean just fell apart after 50 rounds of factory ammo. Mag release, extractor, recoil spring just crapped out. Gun for gun, they are worth about $350.00 a piece if that. With Kahr, you are the R&D Department. I got mine...

    Bought an XD9, seems pretty neat

    In love and with all due respect Yes the XD feel great. Yes it is accurate but shy do I spend $450.00 on one when I know the blued version is going to rust? I can take that same money or slightly less and get a Ruger P 95/97 or a Sig 2340/2009 and be worry free. Yes I think the XD is a...
