Anyone have a H&K USP or HK45C and a P2000SK ? Are the two interchangeable as far as a holster is concerned? Specifically, will a 9mm P2000SK fit in a holster for the other? I am hoping to buy a holster, and the one I want doesn't have the SK as an option. It's a molded Kydex holster, so I...

Just got one of these in 9mm. It came with a pretty nice Milt Sparks holster, but I like to carry cross-draw and can't really do it with this one. I have a few questions I hope someone knows the answers to. 1) will a P2000sk fit into a holster for a P2000? Width is exactly the same according to...

Just picked up a Buck Mark today. What should I do to it (as far as getting the grease out)? I tried to take the top strap off, but the screws are really tight, and I believe have Loctite on them. I got one to break free, but the second one was tight enough to actually twist the end of the allen...

I was hoping to get some help diagnosing a problem or what to look for to figure out what is wrong. I have a 5906 which keeps leaving spent cases partially ejected. It did this to me about a year ago. The spent case would stay in the chamber, about halfway ejected, and the next round would get...

Has anyone ever experienced any problems feeding after adding a grip extension to a magazine, specifically on a Kahr? I recently picked up a used PM9, through which I ran about 100 124gr Federal HST (+p and std pressure) as well as about 50 WWB without a hiccup. I just added a Pearce grip...

I have a buddy with a M&P .40 compact. I guess he's having problems with the magazine dropping out when the gun is fired. Out of three mags, it happens to him consistently with two; the third doesn't do it (for him). He has said he doesn't think he's pushing on the mag release while shooting...

4 Pittsburgh Police Officers Injured in Shooting and Standoff Is it just me, or does it seem like this is happening a couple of times a week now? I can't believe they're just getting more coverage, as these are all newsworthy events and would have made headlines in the past, no matter the...

Any tips for keeping ammunition looking new if it's sitting out on a shelf for display purposes? I like to keep a round of each caliber I have shot lined up on a shelf, but they get all tarnished and dull.

I am trying to find some info for a friend about problems with M&P magazines. Is there a trick to searching for things that have characters like & in them? If I search for "M&P magazine" or even "M&P" it comes up with nothing. Thanks for any help.

I've been considering getting one to keep a pistol at the ready, but out of the reach of little hands. I have seen a couple of threads on here where people have have had the little cable that opens the lock break. I'm guessing there's a ton of people on here who have them. I'm hoping to get a...

So my family on my wife's side has a tradition where we have to draw names and make the present ourselves (as opposed to buying something -although a lot of them just buy a bunch of stuff and put it into a gift basket that they "made"). bushidomosquito (no longer around I guess) had posted some...

Today I had the little hook at the end of my extractor break off. Seems like it should be a simple enough repair; however, I am by no means a gunsmith, and have never done more than field strip pistol for fear of springs flying across the room, parts not fitting back together, or ending up with...

So I just got back from a trip to the range with my cousin who is back on leave from Iraq. We had lots of fun shooting then went out to look at pistols; He is going to be stationed somewhere in Louisiana to be some kind of instructor and wanted to buy one before he leaves. So to make a long...

My wife is absolutely opposed to carrying a firearm. She has made it clear after many conversations she is not going to even consider it. She works evenings at a hospital in downtown Minneapolis in an area nicknamed Somali Village. She parks in an indoor ramp, but I still don't like the thought...

Let me preface this by saying I have very limited knowledge when it comes to rifles. I know they're long and can shoot real far. - Just kidding; but seriously, I don't know a lot about them. I really want to pick up a rifle while I still can. I am concerned that this may be my only shot at...

Ok, I know the whole Assault Weapon Ban thing has been near beaten to death, but I'm starting to get a little panicky. I do not own any rifles currently. I have a couple that I would like to pick up in the near future, as I think we may see another ban coming up and this may be my last chance...

Stumbled across this the other day. "nano" coated bullets/micro patterning This is not meant to be a political post, but it doesn't take alot of imagination to see this happening here (USA). This seems like something that would fit right in with other "common sense" gun control legislation...

Surprised no one has thrown this one out there I'm partial to this one; simple and elegant. The Ruger logo with the eagle or whatever that is is another favorite.

Anyone else see this? http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/sep/03/asa.angelinajolie I guess the advertisements for this movie glorify gun violence. Posters like this have been banned in the UK because they are so offensive that children's eyes cannot be allowed to fall upon them. Not that I...

I want to get a bunch of nicely expanded (fully and evenly) jhp bullets (handgun calibers). In the process I was hoping to do my own little round of ballistics tests, looking at penetration, expansion and consistency between various makes and caliber ammo. Recently I had the good fortune of...
