Also, I am aware of the 338-06 vs 35 Whelen....discussion, or whatever it is. I have contemplated all of...

    Glock 17 Problem

    Folks, this is the first time I've ever had to say that my favorite pistol has a problem. I bought the pistol new in Feb '07 and have put thousands (literally) of rounds through it without one failure, ever. It's been on bedside duty and hasn't been fired in several months so this afternoon I...

    Seven vs. 700 Mountain/ 260 vs 7mm08

    Fellow Rifle Shooters, I am so terribly conflicted. I've been a loyal (almost exclusive) Winchester 70 30-06 guy since I turned 15. I know that I would never really need a different setup for whitetails/mulies/pronghorn, but I grown weary of carrying a rifle that scales at 9.6 lbs (w/o a...

    Remington 750 question

    Hey all, I bought a Rem 750 synthetic in .243 a while back, and I've been loooking around for spare magazines but can't find any for that model. After a long and pointless phone call to Big Green's customer service, I have yet to discover if the 750 would be compatible with any other Remington...

    Baby Eagle??

    Honestly, the "beagle" is a pistol I'd never even thought about buying until today. At sportsman's warehouse this morning, the guy says "here, look at this. they're on sale this week." So he hands me the compact 9mm, and I had one of my "holy cow I have to buy this thing" moments. That...

    Just had an ND

    Well, it finally happened. I grew up around guns and hunting, and I was taught by several people who always drilled saftey into my head. Gun saftey has always been rule number one with me, and by this time it's become an ingrained habbit....or so I thought. After shooting my G17 today, I...

    P228? P229?

    I've been trying to figure this one out for a while now, but what is the difference between the 228 and 229? I know the 229 can be had in more calibers than just 9mm, and different configurations since it's still in production. However, is there any physical difference between them? Thanks!

    Glock 19: To modify, or to buy another one?

    Greetings TFLers My problem is one that some of you may have encountered yourselves. I have a bone-stock G19 (polymer sights and all), and I want to make it into an even better carry weapon than it already is. What I'm wondering is, would it be cheaper/easier to have a gunsmith or the Glock...

    Thoughts on a carry 9mm

    So I love my full size 9mm pistols, but I want a 9mm more suited for carry. I was hoping to gather opinions/experiences you have about compact carry pistols. I've been looking at the G26, Kahr K9/P9, and SW M&P9c. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    10mm/40s&w in the same auto?

    I know this has probably been mentioned before, but a friend of mine shoots 40sw right now and is looking at a Glock 20. He asked me if he could shoot 40 out of the G20. I wasn't 100% sure what to tell him. Can anybody help me out?

    Broken G32 question (pics)

    Well, I did what some say is impossible. I broke my Glock just by shooting it! :eek: I was at the range last week with my pistols, and shot the G32 last, with CorBon 115's. I had only fired one magazine through the pistol, and after the last round there was a slight rattling sound when I...

    Bought a S&W 59 Today!!

    Well, I was just in town running some errands this afternoon, when I stopped by a local sporting goods store, when all of a sudden a SW 59 caught my eye. Usually I don't buy handguns so spontaniously, but I just had to have it. The finish shows some holster wear, and there are a couple little...

    I've gone pistol crazy!

    I fear I may have no control over my handgun habbit! Last month I bought a CZ75B, and today I ordered a Glock 32 :D I love the CZ and don't get to shoot it as much as I'd like to, but I can't wait to get my hands on the Glock either! I'll post a range report when I get the chance. How do you...
