So two weeks ago I ordered a new Rock Island Armory mod# 581964 22TCM/9mm 1911 A1. I picked it up this morning. Barrel 4.25". Single stack 10-round magazine. Chambered in .22TCM with 9mm conversion barrel and recoil spring in the box. Parkerized finish. VZ G10 grips. Ambidextrous...

S&W 327PC revolver came in. 8 rounds of scandium, titanium .357 mag N-frame goodness. Only 21.5ozs. Here it is along side of my 340PD scandium/titanium 5-shot 11.7oz J-frame .357mag. What a pair.

Just received a new Mossberg MVP Patrol TB 5.56 rifle I ordered last week. Also got the scope and base, a Bushnell 1-4x24 AR-223 PCL FFP illuminated scope and Burris QD mount. I realize it's too late to change my mind but I ordered it on the lust of the moment. Does anyone have experience with...

Ordered one last week and picked it up today. OMG! I'm in love and I haven't even fired it yet. It's 6+1 of .45ACP .45ACP+P or 45 SUPER with a 3.75" barrel, yet is smaller than a 3" 1911. It truly is pocket sized. Like my Boberg XR-9 S it's beautifully built and slick as owl poop. The slide is...

Arrived on the 6th and here it is. It's FDE (obviously) with Magpul grip, forestock and rear sight with an 11" barrel. I fell immediately in lust! Some of you may recall I ordered a TacCon 3MR trigger the first day they became available. I hadn't installed it in my S&W M&P-15T yet and...

There was another thread about buying a full sized SAA clone in .22lr and this revolver was mentioned. I decided I needed one and ordered it the same day. Picked it up today and here it is. It's a 6 shot .22lr single action revolver with a case colored frame, blued steel grip frame, cylinder...

I own a S&W 340PD, this is the scandium alloy frame / titanium cylinder 11.4 oz .357mag J frame. This revolver is shipped with rubber boot grips and as you might expect it kicks like a three legged ninja. OUCH! In an effort to improve control without going to .38spl ammo I've been searching for...

The FedEx man delivered my 3MR trigger this morning. What a beautifully built piece of kit. Maybe the nicest AR part I've ever seen. The package included a new three position selector, 2 new pins that have an extra groove on one end, a wallet card version of the ATF approval letter and a...

I have a chance to buy one new. Any thoughts?

A customer of ours just came in to redeem his pawned Taurus PT709 Slim and recounted this story to me. Last night, while stopped at a light, an armed gunman surprised him at his driver's window with a .45 cal pistol pointed at my customer's head, demanding his money and Chevy Avalanche. The...

Just ordered me a new S&W M&P 9mm Pro Series C.O.R.E (Competition Optic Ready Equipment) Performance Center pistol w/ 4.25" barrel. Comes with two 17 rnd. magazines and the slide is milled to accept a MRDS. Now I have to find a MRDS and a hloster. Anyone with experience?

Ordered a Beretta Nano last Sunday and it was waiting for me at work today. This is the first Nano I've handled and so far I'm reasonably impressed. It's small, almost exactly the same size as the Kahr PM9 but slightly thinner, I think, and slightly heavier by about 2ozs. It's a nice...

Sent my P226 into SIG for the E2 grip and Short Reset Trigger conversions Monday before last and received it back this Tuesday. Pretty fast turn around. They did a fine job of swapping out parts and sent the original parts back with the pistol. I think these two conversions have made a noticable...

Co-worker ordered himself a PTR91 w/ (20) 20rnd magazines yesterday for $1369.00 from One Source Tactical. Dealer said it had a new barrel. I've always been a fan of the HK 91/G3 platform. Does this incarnation live up?

Can anyone recommend a good leather forward cant pancake style holster for the EMP. The single loop Galco I use allows the pistol to tilt out too much for easy CCW. I don't like IWB holsters.

An old guy came into the shop the other day and we talked about firearms and politics awhile. He mentioned that he always carried two handguns concealed, a small one and a big one. I piped in "for a NY reload". He said no, that his father taught him to fumble the smaller firearm and when the bad...

A scruffy looking man on a bicycle just came into the shop and proceeded to reach into his front pocket and draw out a loaded Taurus .38spl revolver. When he looked up he was staring at my S&W 340PD .357mag pointing directly at his chest. He was surprised and asked if I was going to shoot him...

I want to get rid of the plastic thumb hole stock I installed on my MAK-90 years ago and replace it with conventional AK wooden furniture. I'm not sure about the 922r compliance requirements so need advice on what to buy and what will fit it's stamped receiver. Thanks.

It only weighs 11.4 oz. This thing is stupid lightweight.

Here it is compared to my HK 45C I'm wearing today. Even though they look very similar in size the Kahr feels tiny in my hands compared to the HK. I'm thinking this Kahr may become a favored CCW piece.
