    Limp wristing??

    Guys, I have some questions about "limp wristing." I currently own 229's and P7's, neither of which has any functionality problems. I keep hearing about limp wristing, but it seems hard to believe. I have, in response to all the talk about this problem, fired my guns at crazy angles with crazy...

    P7M8 Refinish....APW hardchrome

    Guys, For those of you who remember I sent my 9 year old P7 off to AP&W for a hardchrome job a few months back. Here is the no BS story. Hardchrome is not all that it is cracked up to be. It chips and scratches--it is a little tougher, but nothing to worry too much about. AP&W is a...

    How do you make a Krinkov?

    Guys, i would like to build a Krinkov? I see kits for around $600. Presumably, all I need is a reciever. I know I can't put a folder on this though? What if I found a preban Ak-74? Could I convert it to a Krinkov with folder? What about an AK-47? I've seen 47 Krinkov kits. Are they reliable?

    How nice can you make an AK?

    Guys, I have a Mak-90. I bought it new for $349 about 6 months ago. Not the greatest price but it is in good shape (for a Mak). This gun shoots great (totally reliable) but it isn't a tackdriver. How nice can an AK be made to shoot without affecting its reliability. I don't plan on fooling with...

    Best way to assemble an HK91 from parts?

    Guys, What is the best way to assemble an Hk91 from aftermarket parts? i gather that the SW3 or Fmp recievers are the best. But what is the cost after getting a competent smith to assemble one? Would it be cheaper to cough-up $2000 for a used 91? I sure would like to assmble my own (with the...

    P7 Refinishing project Part II.

    Gents, Well, my P7 came back. The gun looked great (the matte hardchrome looked dull grey-silver--very modern looking--not pimpy). I shot a few hundred rounds through it (no problem). Then I noticed the slide's finish was peeling on the serations. It was minor, but for $189, it was too much. I...

    Walther P99 price w/ laser?

    I am looking around for the best price on a Walther P99 9mm. Also, how much does the Walther laser cost? How well does it hold? Are the 16 cap mags still availible?

    Which gun for the end of the world?

    Guys, One thing that guides me in choosing the guns I do is whether I would choose the gun as the only one I could have on a desert island/Mad Max/post total ban/etc. I have made different choices at different times. What would you guys carry if you knew that you could only have one, maybe 4...

    Walther P99 q

    Gentlemen, Has anyone used any of the hi-cap mags that are availible for the 9mm and 40 SW? Are they reliable? I'm thinking about buying a 9mm and want to buy a few of those hi-cap "post-ban...wink, wink" mags. GHB

    P7 Refinishing Project

    Guys, I have just sent my P7M8 in for replating. Since I have seen repeated requests for information on this process, I have decided to document my experience for fellow P7 fans who are thinking about refinishing their guns. I decided to send my gun to Accurate Plating and...

    HK P7M8 police trade-ins

    Guys, I see that there are a bunch of refurb P7's out there now. Has anyone seen them?I realize some of them have a machining mark where some police symbol has been removed. Anyway, what is wrong with these babys? Why would they trade the guns in? I hear that the guns are in quite good...

    For the first time in my life...I got tired of shooting

    Guys, Kodiac (AKA George Hill...if that is your real name???) cracked on me the other day about shootin' off my mouth more than shooting my guns (at the time it had been a LONG 1 day since I was at the range). Anyway, I felt guilty so I took all of my handguns to the range. I shot my P7M8...

    Sig 210????

    Guys, 1. Do any of you own sig 210s? I often hear them called "the best autoloader/9mm ever". Why is this true? 2. how reliable are they? Hollowpoints? 3. Are parts availible at all? 4. How are they constructed? Forged? Cast? Carbon steel (almost surely).

    G30 or G23?

    Guys, I can't decide which gun to add to my collection next ( I have been going back and forth between Sig 229/239, Walther P99, HK P9 45, silenced USP tactical). Now I'm thinking about a G23 or G30 again. I have put down 1/2 on a g23 (but my dealer lets me switch guns if I change my...

    Are Hk products anything special anymore?

    Guys, I realize that this covers more than just handguns, but you guys seem to know as much as anyone about this topic. I was responding to an e-mail about the P7 on HKPRO when something struck me: HK isn't the company it once was. Hk used to be a true innovator, today their product line looks...
