    Sig 380 vs Kahr 380 vs Micro Eagle

    I took my p38, my kahr p380 and my Micro Eagle 380 all to the range to decide which was the best pistol. I have no pictures nor video, but here are my conclusions. All 3 pistols are fantastic. The Sig is the best shooting, the Kahr is almost as good, and the Eagle shoots ok - it has a long...

    Colt Govt model 380 aiming problems

    Got one of these beauties. It needs a recoil spring and a few thousand shots through it, but it runs pretty nicely. However, I can't hit the broad side of a barn with it. Aiming "correctly" usually puts the slug low or "short". But sometimes it's trajectory varies left or right a foot on...

    CCI Green Tag 22LR ammo?

    I've never shot this relatively expensive CCI 22lr ammunition and was wondering if those of you with experience with it can tell me if it's worth the difference in price. More importantly, does it cycle better or worse than "standard" CCI 22lr ammo? Thanks in advance!

    New Springfield EMP 9mm

    After researching 9mm 1911's, I decided upon the EMP. I've put 100 rounds of WWB thru it and it functions flawlessly. Trigger is pure 1911 style and the match grade barrel produces extremely good results. Shooting this thing is really a fun, wonderful experience. I could not be happier at...

    Bersa Thunder 380 with Laser Grip for 399.99

    This was a beautiful black pistol with laser grip (the same that comes on my 642 and I'm having a senior moment with the brand). The pistol was gorgeous and as I now know from experience, there is no better 380 than the Bersa Thunder. I may have to have it. What a nice piece of gear!

    Taurus 709 and +p ammo

    I ran 3 boxes of Fiocchi +p+ ammunition thru my little 709 and i'm impressed with both. There was some speculation that this ammo was not +p but I can vouch that it's extremely hot. The gun shot extremely accurately and powerfully with this ammo and after taking it down for cleaning cannot...

    SIG Mosquito

    I bought a SIG mosquito because I really liked the way it felt in my hand. It's heavy and seemingly well built. Bought 250 rounds of CCI Velocitor ammunition (their 1435 fps 40 grain round) and here are the results. The magazine is easy to load. Note I didn't say magazines. SIG is getting...

    SIG X-5 opinions sought

    I was at my local gun shop yesterday and decided to play with a couple of SIGS. I've never really been interested in them as they are, as a class, nearly as boring as Glocks in appearance. The first one I was able to handle and dry fire was a compact carry piece that was pretty nice looking...

    I'm looking to get a 357 sig of some manufacture. Any one want to contrast and compare the various models and makes, recoil, etc.?

    Went to Wal-Mart and found some .380

    Yes, a miracle for sure, but I got 1 box of Remmington .380 for about 17 bucks. I also got 2 boxes of Federal 9mm for 18.00 total, and as an impulse purchase, a 250 pack of UMC 40 cal. for 69.00. I found all that to be reasonable. The UMC brick was what you'd usually pay for 9mm so I...

    Why are some short Barrel pistols accurate

    ..and others are not. In the past 3 days I've put 600 rounds through my nearly new Walther ppk/s. This pistol, by a wide margin, is the most accurate pistol I own. I have a few which come close: my CZ75b, my PT-92, but even those don't have the pinpoint accuracy of the PPK. When you take...

    Taurus Judge: What's the Verdict?

    I got a chance to shoot one of these Monday. I found it very entertaining and the gun itself had a nice trigger and was beautifully rendered physically. Recoil was big but was made "fun" by the incredible grip on the revolver. Neither 45 nor 410 shells were painfull to shoot. After...

    Bulgarian Makarov

    I just got my first one today. It was in new condition, age unknown at present. I took it home and cleaned it. Not too dirty. Oiled it up and put it together. I had purchased about a ton of ammo, mostly hollow point Silver Bear, and I took it to the range. The only gripe is that the...

    380 ammo on the way!

    I ordered about 15 boxes of 380 from cabelas about 18 days ago or so. Today, 5 boxes shipped. The other stuff should ship in about 1 to 2 weeks. This stuff shipped a bit early. I have kept up my 380 ammo collection by ordering about 3-4 weeks in advance, generally from cabelas or midway...

    Thumbs up for Smith & Wesson Service

    I purchased a S&W 1911 a few months ago. When cleaning it after my first trip to the range, I noticed some chipping and flaking on the muzzle end of the barrel. I didn't think it was a show stopper in terms of looks, but I thought I should probably have them check it out. I sent their...

    S&W 1911 standard model

    I really like the looks of the standard (900.00 give or take) 1911 from S&W but people seem to think the trigger is too heavy. If anyone has any experience with this gun, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

    FTF with LCP

    I had my first FTF with my LCP today at the range. I was shooting #4 of 6 in the clip when I just had a click when I pulled the trigger. Another pull and click. I checked the chamber and the bullet appeared to be at the top of the magazine. It had an arrow shaped impression I think in the...
