Unfortunately for myself, every time I want a particular gun in a certain caliber it happens to be the hardest ever to find, (for example, a blued Walther PPK/S in .32, seems to be one if the rarest of all variants). For collection purposes, I'm looking for a brand new Beretta Cheetah in 32...

I think this is the right place for this post... I'm looking for someone who can either make from scratch, or heavily modify sights for a handgun. Specifically, I want to take my ccw Kahr P9 and replace the sights with the trapezoid sights that are only found on the Steyr MA1 and SA1. I don't...

I haven't started reloading yet but have been doing as much research as I can. I shoot revolvers a lot, and want to reload in .357 and .44 Mag but from what I get from Berrysmfg.com, using lead, lead coated, or even plated bullets should not be used in magnum loads, though this is the only site...

I used to own a S&W M&P compact but sold it due to some bill I can't even remember... I was thinking of buying a new fullsize one pretty soon. The problem is, I HATE the look of the accessory rails. same problem on the new Sigs. Does anyone know if a gunsmith would be able to melt, cut, or...

I recently found out that the Remington Rand exists. I'm mostly interested in handguns and never really thought about Remington, but now that i see they used to make pistols i want a 1911 of theirs. I've never owned a 1911, but i know there are countless customizations to be made to them...

Awhile ago I thought it would be cool to pick up a Glock 25. When I looked them up, I discovered that they can't be imported into the US. But an article I read said that if a police department requests them then they could be imported that way. With the near-total unavailability, I really want...

I'm trying to get a job for an armored car company, and if I want to carry my own gun it has to be DAO, including half charge guns such as the Glock, with no external safeties. I am interested in a 1911 that fits the description, and Para Ordnance makes the LDA. The Tac-Five is listed as DAO. I...

I've been having trouble shooting since I've got my permit, but only on certain guns. I own a Ruger MK3 and a S&W Model 60, which I fire .38 out of. Both of these guns I am plenty accurate with. But when I shoot a Glock 22, S&W 6906, and Springfield XD45, only half of my bullets hit the paper...

I was watching the show Psych yesterday, and saw a gun I can't identify. Normally its easy to tell as I am pretty familiar with different types of handguns but in the case of Smith and Wesson, all their similar-looking numbered models are hard to tell apart. The episode is called "A Very...

i have been considering buying a shoulder holster for an additional handgun during the winter. i carry a Ruger LCP in a pocket holster all year round, but figure during the winter when i'm wearing a coat all the time it wouldn't hurt to have a larger auto, and i'm not too crazy about waist...

I'm working on getting a nice stainless Walther PPK in .380. I much prefer the low recoil then the higher calibers, but there are many people who say its woefully underpowered. I'm not as concerned about it being underpowered but it would make sense to get the ammo that has the most stopping...

i've always been curious as to what happened to Colt's producing their 1911 pistols, but research today gives me no real answers. Colt's website shows no pistols for sale, and their history page explains nothing about stopping production. wikipedia says that they faced heavy competition from...

does anyone know where i could find a complete list of all the S&W revolvers ever made? or at least most of them. its getting tiring to compare forum info to pics and stats and reviews to all these numbered models. i just want a pic of each gun with its name, frame and cylinder material. does...

I'm looking at buying one of these two guns for concealed carry. i have never owned a revolver or shot one. i've held both these guns at the same time. the ruger weighs a little more but its not too noticeable for me, but i hate the way it cocks manually. but in shooting i would almost always...

i live in massachusetts, and the number of banned handguns is extensive. i have always wanted to try a Kahr K9. There are a few around here for sale that are pre-ban, made and kept in massachusetts before 1998. my problem is i remember several claims that the early Kahrs were unreliable in some...

This is my first post. after a couple years of searching for gun info and images and constantly getting my answers from THR, i figured it was time to join. I'm very interested in the Smith & Wesson Night Guard, particularly the model 315. for some reason there doesn't seem to be much interest in...
