    Who Likes Their Sig 239?

    Still trying to figure out why I want this gun so bad. It only holds 8 rounds of 9mm and is pretty large and heavy considering it's capacity. But every time I shoot one I fall in love with it. Anyone on here still carry the 239 these days? Considering selling my SR9C and saving up a bit to get...

    .45 Colt Redhawk..Ruger Only Loads?

    Can the Ruger Redhawk in .45 Colt take the heavy Ruger only loads? Not that I plan on shooting those suckers regularly if I ever pick up this gun but it would be nice to have them on hand. I handled one a couple weeks ago and just about fell in love with it. Really love the .45 Colt round and...

    Going Camping and Cant Find Heavy FMJ's

    I am going camping in upstate Maine next week and wanted to find some FMJ rounds in 9mm that aren't the 115gr target stuff in case I run across black bear. All I can find in the stores are HP's and I cant buy ammo online since I live in Massachusetts. The heaviest round I can find which I happen...

    SR9C First Impressions

    First impressions of the gun, it has great ergo's. I don't have very large hands so the SR9c fits me like a glove which is one of the reasons I bought it. For me it is the perfect balance of size and weight for a dual use carry/home defense gun. If I need more concealment I will go with my J...

    Importance of Hearing Protection

    I know there is a sticky at the top of the thread but I figured I would make this post anyway. I had an incident about a year ago where I fired a .357 snubby without ear protection, March 22nd coming up will be a full year since it happened. Was at the indoor range which I had to myself so every...

    Shooting Steel Plates

    I just ordered a 5" AR500 3/8 steel plate to shoot at the range. I was planning on mounting it the same way in this picture which I got off their website, as I already found some chain and hooks in my basement to use. Just a few questions before I start shooting the thing. Will this mounting...

    Sig 226 vs Beretta 92?

    Every time I buy a new handgun it is always for concealed carry, so I am looking for a high capacity home defense handgun in 9mm. I have shot both the Beretta 92 and the Sig 226 and although I slightly prefer the Sig, I just don't know if I can justify the extra $200-300. So here is where you...

    Posted this a while back but didnt get much input. I got a couple of the Ruger BX-25 25 round mags and I noticed there is alot of play in them from side to side and front to back. I was wondering if there is anyway I can make them a tighter fit. I have maybe 2000 rounds through them now and have...

    Pocket Carry With a Twist

    So about 3 weeks ago I was really hating my Desantis Clip Grip while shooting at the range. It is pretty much the same thing as the Barami Hip Grip which I also have, for those who dont know the grips have a little clip on the side for holsterless carry. I also hate IWB holsters as I have yet to...

    I had sent my 686 in for repair once and to my surprise it came back completely rebuilt free of charge, im talking all new internals, cylinder, side plate, ejector rod, and refinishing job. Needless to say it was awesome, and the gun was in good shape to begin with none of it was needed. Well my...
