For some odd reason I have become curious about bird's head grips. While i've been contemplating a new acquisition like one of the Uberti short barrel 357 models, does anyone know of a BH style grip for a J frame round-butt revolver?

Uh oh. Better buy one now if you want one... http://www.kahr.com/kahr-news.asp#DB3802011

Recently received an Israeli Kareen HP clone. Came with a MecGar 15rd mag and wouldn't lock back on it empty. Tried two new MecGar 15s and neither would work. Browning 13rd mag worked fine though. Would installing a Wolf +10% mag spring in the 15rd mags help salvage them?

Well, I'm really thinking I want to get a plastic 45. Been agonizing over all the choices out there, especially the models from the old Joint Combat Pistol competition. So far, the M&P 45 is in the front running. However, I own an M&P 40c and am not the hugest fan of the trigger (haven't...

Here's another "choose" thread :) I'm trading in my two "larger carry" pieces - a SIG P229 in 40 and a Ruger SR9C. I have a P226 in 40 and just like it better for home defense. My other 9mm is a HK USP9 but I don't think the 2000SK is worth as much as it retails for. So the two guns I'm...

I do! Well - kind of. The Ruger 10/22 I got when I turned 16 has been modified extensively from it's original form (as have all 10/22 I gather). Here's its latest incarnation, with an Adams & Bennet Bull barrel, Hogue stock, mostly Volquartsen internals, and scope. Post yours if you still...

I have a 1990's Winchester 94AE model that I'm looking to upgrade the sights on. It's a drilled/tapped receiver with the cross-bolt safety. Front sight is dovetailed into the barrel. I was thinking an aperture sight, but wasn't sure if I should get tang-mounted or receiver-mounted...

Well, like most handgun shooters it's only a matter of time before you set your sights on your first centerfire rifle. Sure, I own a couple of 22's (a Ruger 10/22 and a Sig 522) but I felt it was time to go down the "more effective" road. I had been spending some time looking at "black...

Just got my 357 SIG caliber x-change kit for my P250 compact. There are a lot more changes in the newer P250c's than just the grip... 1 - Grip: Some of the markings have changed positions, but nothing major. The dust-cover rail is a straight picatinny-style versus the curved style common...

Top Gun Supply just got in a shipment of caliber exchange kits for the P250 compact. Apparently, SIG Sauer is including the new compact grip module with the kit for free with it. Just put in my order for the 357 SIG kit I've been waiting over a year for! And I almost sold it last week :)

Reading too much Chandler recently; getting a hankering for the days of G-men and mob enforcers. While the 1911 is definitely on the list, I was thinking if there are any other handguns (pistols or revolvers) that people feel represent the violence/romance of the Prohibition era in the USA?

I'm going to buy a 22 cal conversion kit for one of my autos. I have a Ruger Mk II - so please no "why buy a conversion kit when you can have a whole pistol" comments, thank you. What I'm looking for is an opinion on which one to get? I have a SIG P226, a Kimber Custom II, and a Beretta...

Planning on hiking this weekend at Red Top mountain just north of Atlanta; will be pretty cold so don't expect I'll see many snakes so should be pretty safe from animals. Was planning on only carrying a small 38 snub with LRN or wadcutters. Sound okay, or any other suggestions?

Was watching Jaws this weekend and saw Sherrif Brody try and shoot "Bruce" with a 38 special. Obviously not enough gun ;) is there any handgun that would have been in the least bit effective? S&W 500?

I'm headed down to Florida to visit my pop and go shooting with him. however, I've heard stories of people having their guns stolen when flying out of Atlanta. Would you all recommend that I just rent a gun from the range when I'm down there (my dad only has one pistol, a Glock 26, that I do...

Was looking to replace a Taurus 85 I sold and went to the store today. Saw a used 642 smith in the case, and was about to plunk down some cash on it when the guy (who knows of my newfound affinity for the wheelgun) says "do you own a Colt yet?" So walked out with this guy (a 1982-3 Colt...

I really enjoy my Mark II with the Hogue rubber thumbrest grips, but am looking to upgrade to a wood grip set. Would want them to have the thumbrest, and be of decent quality. Any suggestions?

Hey all. I'm upgrading a Taurus 85 to a S&W 642 this week, wanted to know what you all think about putting a tyler-t on it. Is it worth it? Does it help much?

Impulse buy - I was nuts. Paid a little over $700, but I just fell in love with the guy. The dealer said it was a pre-10 S&W. Serial is C1566xx. Comes with original box and grips. Bore mint, finish is like 95%+. Action as smooth as a baby's bottom; just fell in love with it. He said...

I recently got a 686 that needs to be sent back to S&W for the barrel bushing modification. They've sent me the fedex label and I'm ready to ship. However, I was wondering if anyone can answer these questions: 1) would you recommend sending the firearm in the blue plastic case, then inside...
