    Hogue Extreme Aluminum Grips for a SIG P226 Tac Ops

    This is a two part question. I own a Sig Sauer P-226 Tactical Operations in .40 S&W, I have been interested in getting some Hogue "Extreme" Aluminum Grips for it. My 226 takes 15 round .40 S&W Magazines and the factory grips do not have the "flare" on the bottom as seen in the 9mm model. All...

    Odd marks on my spent .40 cal casings

    Some backround: The firearm I was using is a P-226 .40 S&W I was using a mix of 180GR FMJ Winchester and Federal rounds. I got to the range for the first time in a couple months this afternoon. Looking closely at some of the spent .40 cal casings I did noticed an odd secondary mark just above...

    Are compensators legal in Illinois?

    So I am thinking of getting myself an early (or maybe late?) Christmas present this year in the form of a Les Baer 1911 pistol. I would like to get one of the compensated models for added fun at the range, but I have been unable to find any information on the legality of firearms compensators...

    (amateur)Range report: P-226 Tac ops .40 S&W + Ammo

    My second trip to the range with my P-226 this weekend and I must say the more I shoot my SIG the more I fall in love with it. The firearm feels much "smoother" than the first outing, I am shooting tighter more centered groups and I am happy to report I am no longer having trouble getting...

    Remington 770 .30-06 good deal?

    I wandered into Dicks sporting goods this afternoon looking for some new boots and I stumbled over into their small firarms section. I am not typically one to buy guns in "big box" store but this deal seems to be pretty damn hard to beat. Now to the crux of the issue, they had a Remington 770...

    Thinking about buying a 9.

    I am making a trek to the LGS next weekend and thinking about buying my second handgun. I am thinking this time I will get something in 9MM that I can shoot a little more economically than my P226 in .40S&W. In addition to a target/range gun this gun will also be the "go to" gun in a home...

    Trying to figure out which ammo did it, .40 S&W "dirty" rounds.

    I just purchased my new SIG P-226 .40 S&W this week, went to the range for the first time with it and popped off about 150 rounds. When I got home and disassembled it for cleaning wow was it dirty as hell, took me about an hour and a half to get it completely clean. I put two kinds of ammunition...
