I just went today to buy an EDC for CCW carry and it was tough picking: Gun size VS caliber VS capacity VS gun platform. Ive always been a .45 and a 1911 platform guy, But that dont define me. I passed up a 3" Kimber today due to it high issue rate and instead got an XDs .45 instead at $519 VS...

Here is a link to the states i can carry in. http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/ohio-ccw-reciprocity-map Im hoping this is the right section as i couldnt find anything else close that would encompass this discussion. Ill try and keep it short but detailed, But my life has been turned upside...

Ive had two guns i regret ever selling. 1. Was a Mossberg 12 gauge bullpup about 20 years ago which are almost impossible to find these days and if you do its price is 3x-4x what i paid back then. 2. This happened about 2 years ago when i was attempting to keep all my handguns as usefull ccw...

Im no metal expert so take what i say for what it is. Im used to dealing with Ti being used in knifes. While there are a very few rare knives that are all 100% Ti, They wont take a sharp edge or hold one long both. Many times the maker if he really wants that knife to cut will fit a small...

Has there been a release date set for the KSG? I must own that gun, Since i so stupidly as a 22 year old idiot I sold my Mossberg 12 gauge bullpup almost 20 years ago. It took shotgun shooting to a new fun level, I haven't tried the Siaga auto's but id say its as fun as those are.

I was ready to type the same exact story and saw your post and was like "DARN!" But yes i was really disappointed also, Imagine a whole store just wall too wall ammo! Oh the hours i could waste there. Talk about false advertisement!

Ive run into this many times and i hate to say this but Ebay has saved me money a few times when shipping small parts would have stupid shipping prices at the larger gun supply stores.

My main HD gun is next to my bed and is a 12 gauge Mossberg 500SPX with all the tactical stuff from the factory, I got it so cheap i couldn't pass it up when i went in to buy a plain 500. I also use the PDX1 2 3/4" slugs with 3 00 buck pellets or commonly known as "Buck and Ball". Its a...

Oh please wise one, Teach me thy things you have mastered and i am so foolish about? In a forum like this one in this section i think you will find almost everyone who does a 1911 trigger job is slightly different in how they do it whether its new parts or polishing or angles being altered...

The only way id make that change is you swapped the .380 out for a micro 9mm. Im a 100% 1911 ccw guy, But ive had times i didnt have time to holster up one and i bought a Kahr MK9 just for this exact reason. It may be no .45, But it is alot more effective than a .380 and only slightly larger...

Greg528iT- I know where most of your questions come from in another thread, And all i can say is most of what i said is stuff ive learned from reading 1911Tuners posts and my own experiences. His experience is about the size of the Earth and mine is about the size of a baseball in comparison...

As a matter of fact, NO i don't think its ok for them to send a gun that does that. "That" being defined as "Dropping the slide correctly on a snap cap for safety or a live round pointed safely away". You gotta realize Its pretty darn tricky and many times takes many tries to get a 3.5#...

One thing ive learned in doing 1911 trigger jobs even if im a bedroom gun tinkerer. You don't test for hammer follow with an empty gun, Always use snap caps and then lock the slide back and release it with the slide release lever. The round acts as a buffer and slows the slide down and the...

Dont ever take a Taurus 1911 and strip it down to the frame/slide/barrel and replace everything with all high end part and then hand fit them. Dont stop there and put a carry bevel/melt job and a good refinishing job and then expect to get anywhere close to the $1700 i invested in the gun...

I love and carry the HST 147gr +P in my Kahr MK9 and the 50 round box is great for costs and reliability testing. Recoil was a non issue and the round hits like a brick. http://www.ammunitiontogo.com/product_info.php/cPath/23_61_119/products_id/2311

I have always been a .45acp guy ever since i was a kid and my dad had his Colt 1911 he carried for business and shot while in the navy. The other calibers i tried as i went along and learned about guns. The only one that disappointed me was the .40S&W. I was never a 9mm guy as ive always felt...

Have a gunsmith inspect the sear and replace the sear spring with a factory weight replacement. Its a very common issue of just fine tuning the gun so don't get down on your new purchase, This is a very normal issue that happens alot. Being how well made the gun is you may ask him to install...

My experience was different than most. After 600 rounds on my MK9 i would get 1 or 2 failure to cycle correctly as the empty case would stove pipe with another round half chambered. I knew they would never shoot 100-200 rounds to try and see my issue to correctly diagnose it so i looked into...

The slide stop appears to be dragging and the feed ramp looks really rough, Thats the only two things i can see in the pics. It may help if you posted what type of failures you were having exactly? Sad to say my smaller 3.5" RIA CS Officers .45acp is 100% reliable and cost only $425. But...

Im not a Ruger fan, But respect their solidly built guns. IMO they will really hit KT pretty good in the PF9 sales as the LC9 appears to be a much more refined gun. It will have its hands full fighting for sales against the CM9 tho if it turns out like it should. A sweet trigger and no crap...
