    I’ve been wondering about something for a while; if a bullet is fired at 90 degrees (straight up) is there a way/formula to calculate at what point/height the bullet would stop and begin to drop down? anyone else wondered about this? :)

    Anyone shoots .45Super or .460 Rowland?

    Just wondering if anyone here bought .45 Super or .460 Rowland conversion kits for their .45ACP? I know that .45 Super will fire in .45ACP guns with w/o conversion, but the .460 rowland case is a little longer (but COL is the same!) I head about people shooting .45 Super in .45ACP guns with...

    Taurus PT1911 ergonomics...

    I'm thinking about getting a PT1911 but I'm yet to handle one. One thing I'm not sure about is the ergonomics of the front strap/ checkeing. I prefer front strap on 1911's to be smooth and round and I'm not sure if the Taurus's rectangular and checkered front starp is going to fit my hand. Since...

    Question about Glock 29

    I'm considering a Glock 29 10mm and have a couple questions; 1) Since G29 can use G20 magazines, would a G20 barrel also fit in the G29? 2) I've never handled a Glock 29, but did try the G20 and didn't really like the how it felt in my hand... Does the G29 have a smaller grip? I understand...

    Kimber custom II vs Taurus PT1911

    Deciding between Taurus PT1911 SS and Kimber Custom II St. .45... I would like to hear from people who own (or have at least shot) both pistols. I've never seen a PT1911 in person, but have shot blued custom II and handled the custom stainless model. I liked the feel of the Kimber (prefer...

    Handgun from the movie “WAR”

    I was just watched “WAR” on DVD with Jet Lee and Jason Stratham and noticed something interesting about the guns/ammo they used in the movie. The “Rouge’/Jet Lee character had what I think is Walther P99 (I'm pretty sure), but the cases/‘brass’ (in the movie they said they were titanium ) they...

    What 1911/caliber?

    OK trying to decide what caliber should my first 1911 be chamber in (I think it’s time I migght actually get one). At this point I’m kinda leaning towards Kimber, and since their 10mm models (Target Stainless and Eclipse) cost more than .40 and .45 (Stainless Custom II models) it would probably...

    Anyone uses LONE WOLF barrels in their Glocks? (esp. 10mm & .40)

    I'm thinking of getting a GLock 20 and buying a Lone Wolf aftermarket barrel for it. Anyone owns a Lone wolf Glock barrel 10mm or .40? Does it really offers a better chamber support than the stock barrel? pics would be great :)

    Glock 20/21 grip size?

    I'm considering getting Glock 20, but not sure if it's too big enough for my hand. I don't think I ever handled/shot either model :o so really have no idea how it's gong to fit my hand... I don't really have large hands, but don't have a problem with 92FS, P226, or 1911 double stack. How does...
