So I've read a fair amount about how easy it is to carry a full size 1911 IWB, but it always seems to be skinny guys who say so. I'm not that fat, but I've got "love handles" which I think would make IWB carry of "the big gun" uncomfortable. The gun in question would be a Wilson KZ45, which...

I now have an S&W M64-3 and a 37-nothing. I plan to carry the 37 all the time in the front pocket and the 64 on the belt frequently. Any recommended grips or holster that you use? What about ammo? I'd prefer not to use +P in the 37, I'm sure it's not going to harm it, but this is a little...

I was warned by you guys when I bought my 14-3 that these S&Ws were addictive, turns out you're right. I bought two more the other day. I recently moved to an area where I can get a carry permit, so I needed to do a little shopping anyway. I ended up with a 64-3 and a 37-nothing. I think all...

I've shot my 1911 more than anything this year, and consequently I naturally now have a "thumbs high" grip. I find now that when I shoot my SIG 225, my right thumb rides in such a way that the slide doesn't lock back on an empty mag. I've tried to use a different, more "revolver-like" grip...

I'll be getting a carry permit very soon after moving to a more friendly county. As such, I have a 3" M64-3 on layaway. I assumed that I'd want a J-frame as well for an "always" gun, but after handling the M64 and seeing the holsters that are available for it, it's really looking like a...

I'll be moving to a more carry friendly area soon, and I've been considering my options. This is all new to me, as all my guns are better suited to the range. Regardless of what I decide to do, I'll probably have a small revolver in a pocket holster at all time, either with or without a...

A local gun shop sponsored a visit from a Rock River rep on Saturday. I got 5 rounds each on a TASC rifle, a National Match A2, a CAR A4 with an EoTech, a Coyote rifle with a Leupold VX-7 on sandbags, a 9mm CAR, an Elite CAR A4, an Entry Tactical, and something else I can't remember. As an...

It's looking like I may get a promotion and transfer to a "shall issue" county, :D:Dso I've started looking at carry-friendly guns and holsters. I've got a 3-inch S&W Model 64-3 on layaway now, and I'm going to need a holster. I haven't decided on IWB or OWB yet, but I'm leaning towards the...

I'm putting this on layaway tomorrow, and I'm trying to do a little research on it. The barrel says "Model of 1955" but the inside of the frame (where the model # usually is) says 25-2. What's the deal? I've been keeping an eye out for a .45ACP revolver for a while, and all I've seen is a...

So I've decided to get an AK, and the only one I've shot before was a common Romanian cheap one. The trigger on it was heinous, and in cold weather it was downright painful on the trigger finger. Does anyone know of any particular type of AK that has a decent trigger or a drop-in aftermarket...

Today a coworker of mine who knows of my insatiable gun-lust told me that he had 2 handguns his late stepfather gave him. He didn't know what they were, but he had shot them once about a year ago and put them away, without cleaning them, and hadn't looked at them since. I told him I would be...

OK, I know there's better options out there than the Perfect Powder Measure, but are there any better options for less than $30? Anything's got to be better than the scale and trickler I'm using now, and I'd like to get something to speed up my case charging without spending a lot of money...

I've now joined the ranks! I picked up a used S&W 14-3 today, and man do I love this gun! I shot 50 rounds and it is everything I hoped it would be. The trigger is smooth and easy to control, the heavy barrel with no underlug balances perfectly, and the partridge sight is highly visible and...

I went to the range with a buddy today, and he had his brand new FN SLP, AKA Winchester Super X2, and he got the 100rd box of wal-mart winchester birdshot loads. They wouldn't cycle the action. My FN is a pump, so I don't know anything about this problem. I told him I'd go here and ask the...

I ran into one today at a local gun shop, and I'm thinking about buying it. It appears to be very little used. It has a beavertail grip safety and an extended thumb safety, grips that are covered in some sort of gritty surface, (does anybody know what kind of grips these are?) and what appears...

I may someday take this rifle on a prairie dog hunt, so I was thinking I should get a 20 inch for greater velocity, but I bet 99% of the time I'll shoot this thing at paper no more than 200 yards away. Should I just save the money for ammo? Also, I'm probably going to get a flattop receiver...

I'm looking into my first AR, and I'm trying to figure out the exact options that I want. I'll be using it for plinking and maybe eventually a prairie dog outing. I'm probably going to get a 20" for the extra velocity over a CAR length barrel, a flat-top receiver, an ACE FX stock, and a Hogue...

I got a $75 gift certificate for Cabela's, and we're going to the big store on New Year's Day. Any suggestions on what to buy? I was thinking about stocking up on ammo or something, but I kind of want to get something I wouldn't normally spend the money on if I didn't have the gift...

My girlfriend has a Ruger 22/45 that her dad gave her because it was her favorite of his many .22s. He's never been very good about cleaning his guns regularly. I recently disassembled and cleaned her gun as best I could, (she says she's too cute to have to clean her own guns) and I got the...
