    Firestar + 9mm...First Shoot..Good and Bad

    Well I traded my CTC Laser for my SP snub last night...never thought Id do it. Great little tool and a benefit to carry with but Ive pretty much ruled out anything but pocket carry for it. So no CTC...too big and the hard grip makes recoil a bitch anyway. (Talking myself into a "good choice"...

    CZ vs ????????

    I just wanted to post a thread about all of the CZ vs (insert any gun name here) comparisons lately on this and many other forums. Ive been a follower of CZ's for a while and happily admit to be a CZForum Staff member. I believe these guns are excellent and a great value also. The whole CZ...

    Pt Night Sights ...update

    I have Custom PT's on my CZ PCR 9mm. Lately, in discussion with the Company (PT/IWI) Ive learned that the company has been Completely Revamped, people and products! From what I understand the Company has a longstanding reputation that is as good as most can hope for. This wasnt the case...

    Ok...I need opinions..PLEASE?

    Im looking for what a gun is worth. Not what a person has into it...just what is reasonable......? My Kahr K40 has had some inquiries..nothing serious. I almost got to where I could keep it but have decided to keep it up on the chopping block! I could squeak by but FRANKLY IM TIRED OF...

    Your fav. Compact version of a Fullsized 9mm?

    Ive just been thinking about what qualities I like in carry guns. After much thought, I think the compact versions of some fullsize guns are one of the best for this purpose. Most of the fullsized versions have been around for years and have proven themselves to the world. A definite plus is...

    The beginners guide to 357 snubby ammo selection.

    Let me start this by saying Im not an expert. My experience is my own and thats all I will use in this thread. Ive owned snub nosed 357 revolvers on and off for 15 years and currently favor an SP101 as a CCW. My intent with this thread is to shed some light on the truths, regarding 357 Mag...

    General .380 S/auto consensus......

    I know alot about .380's. Ive owned a bunch of the best and shot damn near everything else. I may be in the market for a "smaller" or doubles as a BUG s/auto. Id like to hear your experiences with the following guns. Actual experience is preferred....My cat can pick from guns he hasnt shot...

    Well, I thought IT WAS GONNA HAPPEN!

    Yesterday, I was in a smaller town in central UT. I was at a Pawn/Gun Shop...browsing the eye candy. I saw a little Colt .380 in very good shape for only $ 299.00...Im thinking "hmmmmmm, not a bad price". I will note that I had my SP in my front pocket and my CZ PCR IWB at the time...

    Why not make a "convertible" snubby?

    Currently there is a thread about new production titanium/scandium 9mm lightweight snubs...good idea in my book. But I thought Id take this one a little farther. Basically the 9mm and 357/38 special are within .002" in bullet diameter. Dimensionally, .357" vs .355 typically is noted in...

    How well do you know your gun?

    My question is posed from an experience Ive encountered with my Kahr K40. The factory recommends changing the recoil spring every 2000 rnds or so. Its a stout caliber and a short/heavy/fast slide and eats recoil springs accordingly. OK, makes sense. But my Wolff 23# recoil springs actually...

    Hmmm What do you think?

    I made this for my dads K40. I designed it from a couple Ive seen lately and turned out pretty well. Its barely wider than the gun and I carried with it today...very thin and comfy...I just might keep it. :D Shoot well

    Send in the Clones

    I was just screwing around and made this up. CZ's are in the 3 most copied guns in the world. The CZ Compact/PCR is a favorite of mine (like I had to tell you? :rolleyes: ) I made this pic, it shows alot of the clones that are out there..there are more but this covers the majority. JUST FOR...

    Springs and Slide timing issues

    In s/autos recoil springs play a major part in slide timing..and proper function of the gun. I have Wolff (heavier than OEM) recoil springs in my s/autos as I usually shoot hotter loads thru my guns. I also use +5 and +10% recoil springs in my mags for a little extra added push getting rounds...

    PCR Goodies

    I got my Hakan grips and some really cool mag base pads...they look really really good. Hakan is the best...period. The base pads match up with the PCR's lines pretty well...also very nice...... Just thought Id rant once again...:D Shoot well

    Gun Refinishing..Who, What & How much?

    Im throwing around the idea of getting one of my guns refinished. My K40 has had some work done to it and Im thinking of getting it done in a unique fashion..tasteful but nothing extreme. Subtle 2 tone? Flat black slide and dark grey frame? Who have you all used in the past? What is the best...

    Murphy really sucks!

    I have been running across great guns at nice local stores and have 0 money to spend on them right now! :mad: How come this happens when Im broke? How many of you does this happen to? When I have funds available...I MIGHT find a gun I like..MIGHT! Example..... Im not really in the market for a...

    Whats it really worth?

    Most of you have seen my project Kahr K40. I was just playing with numbers in my head and figuring what Ive actually got into it...just the gun. Not the extra mags/holsters/springs etc.. I also know what I think its worth...I dont have any intention of selling it...Im just curious as Ive...

    CATS ammo by TFL?

    I was at a great little gun shop today in Ogden..just bumming. I was checking out 9mm as I shot alot during my lunch hour. I was about the buy a box of 124 +P GD's when I noticed a box of White Generic Ammo..looked like it at first anyway. It said C.A.T.S. ammo on it..."law enforcement use...
