    It was a rather bloody mess... Home invasion

    Hahahahahahahahaha! +1 to not shooting the bear if its not trying to eat you, some groceries and a screen door are no big deal. Shooting animals inside is likely to do more damage and make more mess.. my evidence being "the bloody mess". I wasn't there and like obama i don't know all the...

    Mossberg 500 Road Blocker Recall

    I need to hear more on this story... I understand it probably sucks for you guys but as a remington fan this is just too funny. I always wondered what the guys at mossy were thinking when i saw the pic of that thing on their website. (i must admit it got my attention but :confused:)

    Help me think of compact 9mm's to consider (with preferences)

    Anyone have an executive level connection at Sig? tell them to make the 232 in 9mm. I'll take 2 and i'm pretty sure the OP would get one too, I've been searching for that gun (or similar) for a long time. the walther p5c might be worth a look but has all the $$ and mag availability problems of...

    Colt Revolvers (trooper III/python/KC) known issues?

    all these colts are so good looking. ever notice how many companies make a living trying to copycat colt firearms? if i had more money i'd be a colt shooter, and i'd be able to afford what/if any repair bills as well. someone will always be able to maintain these it is just a question of $$...

    For self-defense shooting, the revolver has been surpassed, EXCEPT...

    I don't know much about defensive shooting but for recreational purposes the advantage of not having to pick up brass is a big one. Too many people just leave empty autoloader casings littered around in random places, and that is a selfish/careless/disrespectful habit. (I'm not talking about...

    N Frame and L Frame help me pick a size

    I have an slightly unrelated question for you knowledgeable smith fans. How come the cylinder's on N-frame 357's (27&28) do not visually fill out the cylinder cutout? the barrel is pushed in further to maintain the cylinder gap but wouldn't a longer cylinder or shorter cutout be more visually...

    N Frame and L Frame help me pick a size

    :scrutiny: i didn't think the 2 piece barrel was that big a deal.. supposedly it makes barrel replacement easier and gives great accuracy (just what i read, i don't know much about barrel engineering). just fyi this is the article i read http://www.gunblast.com/SW619-620.htm If the 620 came...

    357 mag louder than 44 mag?

    I recently encountered a guy who tried to sell me on this exact statement: that the 357 is louder and has more flash than a 44 mag. I found this hard to believe and it seems to defy common sense. Being a long time 357 fan i have very little experience with the 44 mag. So to you guys who have...

    Holy crap - can I outshoot my 1911?

    :what: If you were asking me i'd say 500rds a week is a LOT. Much more than I ever dream of shooting... maybe if i had select fire and a reloading station. Are you at the range daily? do you reload? competitions? 500 a week over 4 years translates to 500*52*4 rounds of 45 acp = mucho dinero...

    Hi-Point 9mm Compact or Compensated?

    I haven't heard anything bad about how they function and have heard great things about factory/customer service. I just can't get over the look of them :barf: first 2x i've heard that :eek: but if you like it you like it, more power to ya

    .357 under-rated these days?

    There was a time when it was effectively used on all North American game as well (from a rifle). I guess animals got bigger and tougher, nowadays some people will even argue 44 mag is marginal. I suspect its just the capitalist machine. If people think they need the new big bullet then...
