I checked out a shotgun at my favorite gun shop today. I don't own one, mostly handguns here. It had a pistol grip and a caddy on the side to carry more shells. Don't usually like shot guns much but I liked this one. After some research, I think it was a mossberg persuader 12 gauge. I have...

At the price point, I really want to pick one, or a couple, up. Really can't decide which way to go though. It would also help if they had someone holding them for scale. Single shot would be the most durable I'd imagine, which is important over the long haul. Single round of 3 inch 410 would...

A guy is selling a used one for three and a quarter. I have been looking at replacing my 226 9mm and am considering giving this sig poly a try. I did an archive search and read a bit, but want to see the most recent up to date info about this gun. I haven't handled or shot one in person. How...

I am thinking of selling my Beretta 92fs Inox and getting one of these. Any input? I could use the extra money to throw in the bank account. I really like the duo-tone model. I have a few questions- Any firsthand issues? Any source for good higher cap mags? Where is the best place to find...

What do you guys think about this? http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=219899591

Still going back and forth on a longslide deal. The guy wants 800 cash. Its in very good shape with about 1,500 rounds through it. Is that fair, a killer deal, me getting ripped off..? I really have no idea with the long slides! Thanks!

o I am thinking of getting a used Long Slide. I know nothing about these. A guy is selling one for 750. It is stainless and has only nominal wear from about 1,200 rounds through it. Any issues with these models? Anything to look out for when I check it out? Is that a fair price? I have the...

Just bought a 686 from a gentlemen on these boards. The cylinder release was a bit difficult to engage. After cleaning the gun, it was very hard to get the cylinder to come out. Now, the cylinder simply won't go back in. Not sure what the issue is here. Note- I did take it to the range...

My local range is doing this for the next fifteen weeks or so. Heard about it at the local gun store. I am interested in going, I would need more mags though. I currently have a Springfield xd-9, not a super great shot with it. I find I can't shoot polymer guns (glock/springfield) as well as...

Does anyone know where I can find one of these? I am looking everywhere so far no luck. I did not know Bersa/Firestorm made the American Classic 1911 in a hard chrome finish. I think it looks very sharp and should hold up pretty well. If anyone knows any distributors that have them please shoot...

Looking at the media storm after the tragic events in Arizona has me a little concerned. You see, I lived in Scotland as a young boy in the mid 1990's after the Dunblane Massacre. Even then, I loved my daisy air rifle, and my KWC air soft pistols! I couldn't wait to grow up and own the real...

I was hanging out at my favorite local shop, and on coffee refill number three I noticed a little gun near the back. It was a Kahr MK9, used, for $499. I handled it and Maaaaan! That trigger was sweetness! The problem is I literally know nothing about this gun or its manufacturer. I tend to...

I am planning on picking up a 1911 this year in honor of 100 years and still going strong for this design. In the past, I've owned a Colt series 70, and a Sistema Colt, as well as a Springfield Mil Spec stainless. Had to sell them for various reasons a few years back. Things are a little...

I'm thinking of picking up a used Glock 22 on the cheap, police trade in. I was thinking it might be cool to have two calibers in one gun, and the gun is pretty cheap since its trade in fodder. I want to check it with the guros here who know a lot more about all this than me. If I buy a...

Not really, and I say that tongue in cheek. I just got to thinking that it would be nice if a company offered a 1911 made in the old way. I know MIM works fine and so does cast when they are done right. I've read that certain Smiths would work on Norcs due to their high quality, tough steel...

Sold off my revolver ammo stash before I got married and moved, and am now wanting to return to my smoke wagons :D. I can't believe how much revolver ammo has gone up! I was buying 50 rounds of 158 grain LRD for 8 bucks a box! I have to believe there is some source for buying volume (500-1000)...

Don't know a lot about this gun, I handled one in the store and loved the balance and look. I'd be buying sight unseen but the seller reports no issues. Is 465 all said and told a good deal for a model 66 no dash pinned and recessed (whatever that means)? I just think its a purty hogleg and look...

I have a lot of questions. I've owned pretty much any other gun you can think of at some point in my life, but I have never owned a hi power yet. My only experience is that my first experience ever shooting a real live handgun was on a hi power :cool: so I appreciate the memory lane factor...

I live in Illinois. I just wanted to get that out there because that may change things, as its the most repressive state around when it comes to gun laws (or one of the most). Anyway, when I have sold guns on here to people out of state in the past, I always shipped them from my ffl. This cost...

What is Rock Island Armory's warranty like? Has anybody had to use it? I am kind of between this company and a Springfield armory offering. SA has legendary CA, which is something you can't really put a price on. I have HEARD that RIA has good customer service, but I don't personally know much...
