I'm building my .45 super woods pistol. I found a StormLake fully supported barrel for the glock 21c. Since I live in a ten round limit state, the longer grip of the 21 has no advantages for me, and I have medium hands, so this was going to be another glock 21 to 30 chop job like I did on my...

Anyone get one yet? This might be my next revolver purchase! Been waiting for it to come out. But it hasn't been approved for the dreaded CA approved handgun list yet.

I've decided to configure my Glock 21c to .45 super instead of a 10mm conversion. Mainly because I will still be able to shoot .45acp in the same barrel and I have a Kahr p45 that I will shoot some .45 +P loads in. I just got a Stormlake fully supported black oxide barrel on GT, and will...

I have a friend who is selling his. I hear all these stories about malfuntions, but does anyone have anything good to say about them? I like the feel and looks, the ergonomics, but want reliability for my carry gun. I know about the ammo weight issue, and he had problems with premature slide...

A little excitement at the ccw qualifying range today.... I can't remember who it was, but a well know revolver instructor wrote about this. He was running a revolver class, and asked the students to load their revolvers as quick as possible starting with an empty cylinder. Some fiddled with...

I like it a whole ton better now!

I know they are all stainless now with the black as a Diamond finish, but did the original K40 ever come with a carbon steel slide? I read that the original K9 came out first with carbon steel frame and slide. The reason why I am asking is that I purchase a used blue slide on fleabay for my...

Ordered some stock Kimber K6 grips so that I could modifiy to what I want. I've made them from scratch, but the darn frame is very complicated to match perfectly, so I thought that it would be easier to order some walnut grips and just grind them to what shape I want. But they aren't exactly...

Just happened to see this one that I've never heard of. An 8 shot J Frame .22 that is the same size and shape as the 340 models. But does that barrel hole diameter look like a .22? It looks more like a .38 with a recessed sleeve inside. I watched a video on it as well, and the muzzle looked...

Are there any other single actions other than the Ruger Blackhawk availble in a .357/9mm convertible? Since I have carry weapons in both 9 and .357, I thought that it might be neat to finally have a single action around the ranch that takes both calibers.

Stopped by my Local Gun Shop and found someone selling their collection of airweight Smith and Wesson revolvers on consignment. 1. A 637 j frame 5 shot with lock in .38 special +P (same as Chiefs special, but stainless barrel and cylinde0 for 350.00 2. A Smith airweight model 331, prelock .32...

Haven't seen anything like this before on the net, so thought this information might be useful to someone. The aftermarket grips are very limited for the Kimber K6. All of them leave the backstrap exposed. As anyone knows, that metal backstrap is a direct connection to the recoil force going...

Just wondering what that thingy is on the back top of the Smith Bodyguard .38 special? What is its purpose and is it removable? Is that side plate polymer?

I'm considering a Traditions .357 single action Sheriff's model made by Pietta. It says it has a transfer bar, so does this make it safe to carry with 6 rounds loaded...

Picked up my new Kimber K6 yesterday. Immediately got to work on a new grip design for it. If you look for Kimber grips, all you can find are variations of the old boot grip design with the fill in the front and exposed backstrap. Looking at the lines of the frame, I decided that I could make...

I have what appears to be an EMF Great Western "Californian" made by Pietta according to my research. But there are a few peculiarities that perhaps some experts in SA can help me with. 1. Will this take original COLT SA grips? Or what grip frame is this 2. It does not have "floating" hammer...

Found a decent deal on a Kimber K6 2" snub today. Told my wife it was only 400.00..... SSSHHHHH! Checked it out carefully and locked up tight and trigger was smooth. Here in CA, have to wait ten days to pick up. I know I'm going to like this one.

Just found out that Magguts is very close to releasing their magazine +1 kits for the Kahr 9 series of pistols. I emailed them and said that the .40 is close to follow. That means that with the flush magazine in the PM9, you would get 7+1 and in the P9 or CW9 series, 8+1 with the flush...

With all the hubbub about the new Glock 43X and the 48, what about us Shield fans? X format Until Smith comes out with the same formats as Glock, here are some remedies! The Samsom Magwell turns the Shield into the long grip version as the X format. It intergrates seamlessly with the grip...

Model 5444? Think they just came out last week? The .38 +P version is one of my favorites. Hoping that it will get California approved.
