    New grip project for my Kahr K40

    Whew, these are some of the hardest ones I've ever made. Much inletting and different depths of cuts to fit, and it has to be perfect to work! I've done many, many guns, but this is a challenge to cut from scratch. I always thought that light color wood looked nice on stainless. I've done...

    Suggestions for designing the perfect LCR & LCRX grip

    Of course there are no one grip fits all. I got my duplicator set up to inlet the panels for the LCR and LCRX grip tang frames. So now I can make up some blocks to play with grip designs. So here is your chance to input some ideas for grip design. So here are some questions. 1. Is pocket carry...

    Anyone have the LCRX 3" .22?

    What's your opinion on it? How is the DA trigger pull? I have the .38 +P and pondering getting a .22 companion for it. Exact same size and weight, but cheaper ammo.

    Snubbie with a unique birdshead design grip

    One of the advantages of the enclosed humpback snubbie is that one can get a higher purchase on the frame and reduce the bore axis. So I did some drawings a while back and came up with my own unique design to take advantage of that concept. The grip has a high overhang so that my hand goes...

    Colt SA grips fit on this EMF?

    Just got this one back from my aging father. I gave it to him many years ago as a gift. It's virtually unfired. In .44 special caliber, an EMF "Great Western" II California model as far as I've researched. A pretty close clone of the Colt 1873 2nd generation. Anything you can tell me about...

    Why should I get a Police Positive in .32 sw long?

    I love those old Police Positives. I like the dimunitive size, the classic turn of the century look (no not 2000 turn of century!LOL) and the Colt name. I found a nice example for affordable price, but why on earth do I need it? I would have to get .32 dies (not so bad as I need to reload for...

    Is a Walther PP in .32 acp desireable?

    One of my local gun shops has a nice example of a Walther PP in .32 acp. It's larger than most .32's but super thin. Looked to be in excellent shape, although at the time I wasn't interested enough to check it out. They wanted 550.00 for it, and being in CA, you don't see these much these...

    Innovative Heiser blowback semi auto's

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqsPoIPx4jA Just found these on youtube. A very innovative design with the recoil rod and spring on top, single stack, fixed barrel to the frame and blowback design. They started with a single shot shotgun pistol, but now are making these semi's. Very low bore...

    Kahr PM 9 "covert"?

    I know that the K series came out with a covert version (standard k barrel with Mk shorter grip). But I wasn't aware that the poly P9 version also came in a covert version. I know that some have modded the p9 to a covert version, but is there an OEM covert model? I found this on Bud's Guns, and...

    New pancake holster for Smith Shield NHD

    NHD = "New Holster Day"!:D Make this pancake holster for my Shield yesterday. It's a copy of a Roy Baker pancake holster that I previously owned. Added the floral carving to it and black green leather dye. Rides nice and snug. Too me about 6 hours to complete. Anyways, just though I'd share.;)

    WIDTH of Kahr cw9 or p9 grip?

    I have a Kahr K40 and love the gun. But was wondering if the grip width on the CW9 or P9 are slimmer because of the polymer grip frame rather than the hogue rubber grips. My Shield measures 1" at the grip width, so are the CW9 and P9 that thin. Could someone please take a micrometer and measure...

    Bought a Kahr K40 this morning!

    Like new, super trigger, in original case wih three mags, perfect condition. Only 400 rounds through it. Could not pass it up for 400.00 cash! I could not even get the poly versions for that price here in CA. Of course in CALI have to wait the ten days to see it again. This is the matt...

    What is this Shield rear sight?

    Saw this in an blog about his upgrades, but he didn't say what sight was on the Shield. Looks might be a Bowen adjustable sight? Same sight as on the larger M&P. bit I thought that M&P core sight hang over the back of the Shield? Thanks for any suggestion on this!

    Thinner than a shield?

    Love how thin my shield is. Finding it a breeze to carry AIWB. Tried to love my HKP2000SK. If it had been a little thinner, I could have lived with it. But it was fatter than my glock. So what is out there that is thinner than the Shield.

    New wood stocks for 3" LCRX .38 special

    Just finished making some American Walnut stocks for my favorite 3" Ruger LCRX. Could not find anyone that made target type stocks or full combat stocks for this revolver, so designed my own. These will help to bring out what this gun can be, a fun range gun, OWB woods gun, and with the...

    calling buckmark experts again

    A friend is having problems with his Buckmark URX trigger resetting. I advised him to make sure the long end of the spring was to the rear. The old Buckmark U spring was longer on one side than the other, and as per this article on rimfire, the long side needed to be to the rear to reset the...

    4" J frame size revolvers?

    Ruger makes a 4" SP101 but what other revolvers in that frame size (J frame size, 5 shot) come with 4" barrels. Talking about .357 magnum. I'm thinking a 4 inch 5 shot lightweight small revolver would be perfect for woods hunting/hiking applications that could harness the full power of the...
