Hi all, Considering a Walther PPQ as an all purpose gun. Seems to have what I want. However, I know nothing of Walther's warranty, if they have one, and how service for them would work. I know Smith and Wesson imports them. Other than that I haven't found too much info. Could someone give...

Hi all, I love my Glock 19 for its size above everything. I am curious if other companies have similar options that I could check out, not to replace my Glock but just for an alternative. My key requirements are: 4 inch barrel, 9mm, striker fire, and most importantly the ability to have three...

Hey all, Won't be the first, won't be the last post about my Glock 19. Love how it shoots, even more so I love the size. However, I have noticed that it likes to eject cases into my forehead or right over it. I wear eye protection and it really doesn't unnerve me. However, I tend to shoot...

Hi all, Some time back I picked up a Glock 19. I've decided to make it my ccw. I want to put night sights on it (has standard Glock sights on right now) and I have a good smith to do it but I don't know what ones to get. I was looking at these Trijicon ones...

Hey all, This should be short and to the point. Recently picked up a Sig P229 in 9mm. Shoots beautifully, love it. Tonight was the first range visit and I shot 150 rounds of ammo. I noticed that on 1 of the 2 magazines the gun came with, and it only happened with that magazine, that the...

Hey all, I've been looking over the dizzying array of variants from SIG for their P229 series. I decided I want one in 9mm, but I am not sure which one. I know I want the SRT and night sights. On SIG's site today I saw that the regular P229R comes with 13 rounds magazines. However, I handled...

Hi all, I'm not going to beat around the bush, I am pretty disappointed with myself:(. I recently picked up a brand new P229r in 40 cal. I love this gun, the way it feels in the hand, the weight of it, the smoothness of the trigger. But I can't shoot it, certainly not well. I've put about...

Hi all, I'm at somewhat of a loss. Went shooting last night with my newer Glock 19 Gen 3. I've put 115 gr FMJ Tul-Ammo and Federal Champion through it with no issues, ~ 200 rounds. Last night all I had was the dreaded Winchester White Box. Besides shooting a tad high and right, it was going...

Hi all, I am looking for a good 40 cal semi in the < $600 price range. I would like it to be in the 4" to 4.5" barrel length so I can carry if need be. I would like ~12 round capacity. I have a Glock 19 and a Smith M&P both in 9mm so I am looking for something different. Was thinking about a...

Hi all, Today I bought a used Sig P2022 that appeared to be in excellent shape and was manufactured in 2008. It came with a 357 sig barrel and a 40 s&w barrel. After about 50 rounds of 40 that went very well I started shooting the 357. Towards the end of the box I noticed that when hitting...

Hey all, So I have looked at the other threads on this gun and people seem to like them. For me it would accomplish a number of purposes. It would give me a DA/SA option. It is also chambered in 357 sig and being used comes with a 40 cal barrel that the original owner bought. I don't have a...

Hey all, So going way back I had some issues out of the box with my M&P. Notably feeling the break point in the trigger and the reset. After some conversations here I ended up trying out the APEX Tactical DCAEK (Duty/Carry Action Enhancement Kit) and RAM (Reset Assist Mechanism). I wanted to...

Hey all, So I just did what I thought I would never do, I bought a Glock. I have been a Glock naysayer for a long time, but after handling and shooting a Glock 19 I joined the crowd and plan to use it as my carry pistol. I picked it up today, was going to get a used one but it turned out to be...

Hey all, This isn't really a question, more of an observation. There is what can only be described as a massive gun store near me that has hundreds of used firearms and just as many new. Over months I have noticed one thing: there are never any trade in Glock 19s. Basically every other model...

Hey All, Awhile ago I mentioned having some feeding problems with my 1911 where the ending rounds in a magazine were getting stuck on the feed ramp. Some smart folks suggested the magazine springs might be worn out (the gun was bought used). Well the new springs arrived today and I wanted to...

Hey all, In a previous thread I had posted some problems with feeding in my S&W 1911 where FMJs were getting stuck on the feed ramp. After some more testing I found that the problems only occurred with the 2 magazines that came with the gun, while the magazine that I had bought with the gun was...

Hey All, I've been shooting my S&W 1911 quite a bit lately and I am very happy with the gun. To give me a bit of added grip, pun intended, and to save the very nice looking wood grips that came with the pistol, I recently bought some Hogue wraparound grips. Step one was to take off the wooden...

Hey all, Like it says, am I mad like a hatter for thinking about this? I am just not thrilled with the M&P. I just don't particularily like polymer guns. I like the added weight of an alloy or steel frame. I held a 5904 at my lgs today and it fits my hand really well. Trigger seems pretty...

Hey all, Some of you may have read previous posts of mine where I talk about issues I have had with a M&P 9. Basically it seems low and left one day, dead on the next, then back to low and left. Well, my father always said it's important to admit when you're wrong. I shot some more rounds...

Hey All, I am looking for a 9mm for carry. My wife has adopted my M&P, which is fine, and while i could get another I want something different. I'd like to stay in a 4" barrel or less, but I don't want to go too small as I am not a big fan of the sub-compacts. Weight really isn't an issue as...
