Have had a BDA/Sig in .45ACP for a while. I love the blued slide and looks of the pistol. That it shoots great too certainly helps. Recently/finally picked up a baby BDA/Beretta in .380. IMHO, this is one of the prettiest semi-autos around. A bit plump and relatively large for the...

One FAL is a lonely FAL. My pseudo South African R1 was sad. Sharing spare with shotguns and assorted rifles and handguns, but no other FAL to share time with. This summer, my wife got me a Type 1 receiver to go with an Imbel kit I had. In August, an assorted box of goodies went to Rich at...

From a search of the forum and an online search and phone call, I guess Lett Custom Grips has closed their doors. Is anyone else out there making inserts for the SP101? :confused:

After another shooting outing with my .44spl coverted Blackhawk, I had to make a decision. M-Pro 7 had reacted badly with the refinish of the stock grip frame and it peeled like bad sunburn. Not the attractive look this pistol deserved. I popped over to the Brownells web page and ordered up...

My first pistol was a Ruger Blackhawk .357 I bought in 1990. Just turned 21 and it was perfect. Over time I became bored with it, but you can't sell your first gun. That would be wrong. What's a guy to do? Well, I decided to send the gun off to David Clements for a conversion to .44spl. He...

Finally picked up a nice Browning BDA .45ACP. Been looking for a while, but passed on a few that didn't look too attractive. The price and condition were right. The pistol is dated HJ, 1978: Single stack goodness. My P225's and the BDA:

It must be something in the water. Goleta Post Office shooting this week, the deputy shooting the MP in Chino, shots fired at LAPD in East LA, shots fired at Santa Monica PD this morning, and now a CHP officer shot at in East LA. Just seems like it's non-stop this week around here.

I am about to pick up up a BDA in .45ACP with the European magazine release. My understanding is that standard Sig 7 round metal base plate mags will work, but I wanted to be sure. Top Gun Supply is a great source for Sig magazines. They have these for sale, but they weren't 100%...

After hemming and hawing about picking one up for the last 13 years, in December I got around to buying a Sig P225. My favorite Sig (with the P220 not far behind). Of course the day I found one, a 2nd popped up for sale. Naturally, I had to get both. Finally got a chance to take some...

Just came from a local shop in Southern California picking up a new pistol. While I was there, I spotted a Parkerized .38 Super Mil-Spec. I assumed it was used and asked to see it. It was for $579 and seemed new. I asked and was told that SA was again producing the pistol and this was a...

Finally picked up and shot my new to me P225. It's a pistol I've lusted over since I bought my first handgun in 1992, but for some reason just never got around to buying. Date coded AB, 2001, it was shot very little by the previous owner who decided to have a little work done this past...

Just wanted to post some pics of my CZ Kadet top end on my 75B tactical. Makes for a wonderful .22...

For Christmas, my wife got my a CZ Kadet top end for mt CZ75. Finally got a chance to try it today. I spent about 45 minutes on Christmas actually fitting the top end. That was easy. Just took it slow and things went in easy. At the range today, I fired off about 300 rounds of assorted...

I posted some pics of the new to me Webley MkII I picked up earlier this week. The photos were quick ones and I wanted something a little nicer. I decided to grab my WWI and WWII era warhorses for a group photo. A S&W 1917, a 1896 Webley Mk II, a Canadian issued 1916 Colt New Service, and...

I've been looking to pick up a Webley to replace the MkIV I foolishly sold years ago. Today I came across an old MkII converted to .45ACP. Very good condition. Original grips. Good finish. Mechanically in good shape. Nice addition to the family and by far my oldest revolver (and only...

Got my Gunners from Christine at Simonich Knives yesterday. A set for my 1911 and one of the new BHP sets they are now making. As with all the HP grips I've used (Spegels, Navidrex, etc), some fitting was required. It sure is easy with this G10 material. The Gunners are nice. I love my...

Finally got some pics up. Recently received two new holsters from Rafter S. Very nicely made. Fit well on my belt and hold the pistol very well. That they look nice to boot is always a plus. One for my 3" M24-3 and one for my 2" M15.

Earlier this summer, I bought a nice S&W M24-3 3" Lew Horton. I've always wanted a .44spl and after shooting this one I knew why. Today I boxed up the first pistol I ever owned, a Ruger NM Blackhawk in .357 and gave it to the UPS man. I shot it a lot in the early 1990's in CAS, but it has...

Police Kill Armed Man, Hostage in Fla. October 07, 2005 5:46 PM EDT TAMPA, Fla. - Police officers shot and killed a man and the woman he was holding hostage early Friday after he fired a sawed-off shotgun at them, police said. Tampa police Chief Stephen Hogue said the officers had been...

Today, on one of my many yearly visits to Phoenix to bring my son to see the grandparents, one of the local gun shops refused to sell me an early pre-WWII S&W M&P. Evidently, according to the shop owner, the ATF has advised him not to sell C&R handguns to California C&R holders. Longguns were...
