    My New S&W SW9VE

    Wanted a 9mm range gun as I wanted to shoot something other than my CCW. Set a budget of $400. Picked up this NIB SW9VE today for $348 OTD (this includes taxes and fees). If the weather behaves, hitting the range this weekend.

    My new to me Springfield 1911 A1

    Not new to firearms but new to 1911's. Haven't shot one since I got out of the Army 23 years ago. Anyway, picked up this slightly used Springfield yesterday and have already made my first range trip. Needless to say, I'm hooked.

    New to me! You can look but don't touch!

    Finally, got me a Mini14. After a lot of looking, researching and thinking what was best for me, picked this up this evening, and has only been shot a few times. I wanted to plink and be ready for zombies. Got everything you see here for 625--now for a cold range trip!

    How much for 9mm?............

    Stopped by my local WW this evening and they had Remington 9mm; boxes and boxes! And then the clerk told me it was priced $30 a box...for practice ammo...for 50 rounds. He said it thinks it is a pricing error. I said "no ship", and walked away. What the...?:fire:

    Why own a gun and not shoot it?

    I went to the range today and one of the guns I took with me was my S&W 44 Mag that my late FIL gave me. Beautiful revolver; around 1976 ish. I know a lot of people collect these and other firearms. But I got to thinking, for most people, what would be the sense in having a gun you...

    Red Dot on a Snubbie?

    As I get closer to fifty than forty, the eyes aren't as great as they used to be. I carry a blue Taurus M85UL. Is there any advantage to putting a red dot on the front sight? 2"BBL. Or should you just point and shoot a snub-nosed revolver? Probably no right or wrong answer; just...

    Do I owe my wife an apology?

    OK, we're on vacation and the hotel we are staying in tonight does not have a safe. I have a Taurus Model 85Ultralite with the lock on the hammer. Loaded with +P. We are going to go swimming in the pool. I lock it (loaded) and put in the bottom of one of our bags. We come back (there...

    Removal of Taurus 85 UL side plate?

    I have read that you need to remove this plate and get "gunk" out. I am a new owner of one and love the pistol and the way it shoots. My question is; is this really necessary? If so, is it something I can do myself? I see two screws on the side; can I remove those myself? Any...

    Dry Lubricant?

    I have a new Taurus 85UL--great pistol! And I want to make sure the trigger and hammer continue to work smoothly. I have seen some posts regarding using a dry lubricant. I've always used gun oils so am not sure what people are talking about. Suggestions?

    CZ-82 Price

    I've run across a used CZ-82 in really good shape, two magazines, the ugly holster and all for $300. While that may be a fair price, still seems a little high. I may come in and offer 250-275. He was originally asking 350, but I think that might be a pipe dream! Wanting to find a...

    Is all 9mm Ammo the same?

    I know nothing about 9mm's and am thinking of getting one. My pistols are wheelguns. Will any 9mm shoot any 9mm bullet? I guess the reason I'm asking is what does it mean when the box of ammo says 9x18 or 9x12 or whatever?

    9MM or .38?

    Given the state of ammo in this country, would you still continue to let a 38 be your primary CCW or should I bail on the gun and 300 or so rounds of ammo I have for it and become a 9Mil guy? I love revolvers, but I am trying to look into my crystal ball and see the future.:confused:

    30-40 Krag

    I inherited a 30-40 Krag from my FIL who passed away in October. Only other rifle I have is a Model 270 22LR Winchester. BUT given the way things have been going, thinking it might be a good idea to have a few rounds of this ammo? Is this still made? Looking at web sites haven't found any...
