Hi, everyone! :D I'd like to share with you a simple formula I worked out from the basic relationships between distance, time and mass. I want to determine which of the two calibers really does have the greater ooomph! as far as impact dynamics is concerned :confused: :rolleyes: . Here goes...

A Glock??? Talk about mistaken identity... :rolleyes: :D :D

Hello again! :) I'd like to know your inputs on this cute DAO pocket pistol I found at a local gunshop. It sells quite cheap at $195, uses .25 ACP, 8 rnds, barely weighs 15 oz. I've been looking around for a good CCW that's really small, and this looks like a great candidate. No Keltec32s...

Hi, all! :) Last night, my dad turned over to me his 30+ year old Remington 870, a beautiful piece with a 6-shot mag tube, 20" (?) barrel and wood stock and foregrip. It hasn't been shot often, maybe once about 6-7 years ago, but it is regularly wipe cleaned/oiled. It needs some reblueing here...

I don't think this is available for the USP! :D Regards, New_comer:cool:

Just thought I'd be the first to greet you... Happy Birthday!!!:D :D :D New_comer:cool:

Hello there! :) Been seriously considering a shotgun for home defense. Much as I would like to own an 870, a Mossberg, or Wincester, the prices of these products here in my neck of the woods are truly prohibitive. So I guess I have to rely on a locally mfd shotgun which I feel should do just...

Hello again! :) I would like to know if there are any references regarding the critical speed that a bullet (of the major calibers) should be travelling to be able to PIERCE an adult human's skin. It goes withot saying that the speed/momentum beyond this value is meant for the...

Hello again!:) Does anyone have this pistol? Metal frame, grip safety, looks like a cross between an HS2000, SIG & a Steyr.:confused: . If you do, how does it shoot and how much did you pay for it? Thanks for your reply... Regards, New_comer:cool:

Hi, y'all :) As promised, here's my report on the first IPSC tournament that i participated in the Sunday B4 Christmas: There were about thirty of us who competed in the "novice" category, but i could already tell that some of the other players were several tourneys more experienced than i...

Hi, again!:) I just noticed an ad here of an almost NIB HK P7M8 with 50 rnds FMJ thru it. Is the price fair enough? Thanks a lot and keep shooting, New_comer:cool:

Hello, y'all :) Been to the range with my USP9f again yesterday, bringing along a cache of lead reloads for practice. (Hey, am i not the guy with the keyholing problem just a month ago?!!). Anyway, I was assured by the ammo supplier (a different one this time) that their reloads are stable...

Both the Desert Eagle and HK Mark 23 are bigger than any other semi-auto in the market. If you were to consider only the "intimidation" factor, which would you choose? Or do you have another in mind? :D Best New_comer:)

http://www.hkpro.com Took quite some time! Well, fellow HK'rs, I guess we've got our home "resurrected"... Best, New_comer:D

Tanfoglio P-19 Combat Hello to all! Has anybody had any experience with this gun? I have seen one advertised for $280, and i'm wondering if its worth that amount before i consider buying it as my second unit. I've done a search on the threads, but nothing came up. All inputs are welcome...

Hello everyone! I'd like to know if the slide spring of my USP9f are still ok. I have fired 300 rnds already thru the gun with no FTE's/FTF's, (except for the keyholing occurrence when using plated reload bullets last week). But after my last range session, i noticed that the main recoil spring...

Hello, everyone! :) FINALLY, i got to test my newly acquired usp9 full size at the range last Saturday. Shot 50 rnds 147 gr Fiocchi JHPs, 50 rnds 115 gr Fiocchi JHPs, and 100 rnds of Armscor 125gr FMJs with no problems at all. Needless to say, the gun is much more accurate than I, but at ten...

What should have been the replacement of the 1911? Well, let's "imaginate"/play around with this subject a little. The way i see it, arguing what could have been is like crying over spilled milk. I say: "Enough of that (while stomping my feet :D )!", and deal with what could be done at the...

Hi! I'd like to know if using range reloads could be detrimental to my USP9. I have prepared 150 rounds of Fiocchi 147 grain FMJ loads to break-in the gun, but when it runs out, I intend to use the inexpensive reloads, so that if i could still take it, i could extend my shooting session. Also...
