Can anyone tell me the name of a holster manufactor who makes a drop leg holster for a SW 686 w/ a 4" snout? I search and search and just cant find one! Thanks in advance! Semper Fi! -L7

Just a shot of a Marine (me) and a 240Golf. Thought everyone might enjoy to see it and appriecate what the boys in digitals have to lug around. Any questions for me about it, fire away! Semper Fi! -L7 BTW, yes it's that big and I'm that small (5'8" and 160 lbs.) :D

Recently came across this rather unique firearm as of recently and I have to have one! When I went to HK's website I read they are discontinuing them!?! Now I really have to have one! I know TFL is a wealth of knowledge so school a jarhead please :p . How much should I pay for one (I have a...

Quick question: any (good) gunshops in the Kings Bay, GA area? I'm moving down there on Friday any don't have a clue as to what is in the area. Kings Bay, GA is near the coast by the FL border (if you aren't familiar with the base). Semper Fi! -L7

My FAL just got back from being under the knife and now sports a 16.5" barrel and DSA flash hider (1"). Got the call from my smithy last night and will pick it up (in MO) during my 96 hour Liberty (happy Independence Day, BTW). Now the question remains, what next? I need optics (I'm fairly...

Members of the FBI's HRT (about 12 men) were training at the IAMS range where my class was training earlier in the week. I ran into two agents in the head (yeah, on purpose) and began talking shop with them. Contrary to most beliefs, FBI agents are class acts. Very kind gents. We got talking...

So, what does everyone think? Does the revolver still have a place in the arsenal as an offensive tool (alongside the shotgun and rifle that is) or is it purely a defensive item? Let's hear it!! -L7

The Beretta M9s we are using at Security Forces Training Co. (Semper Fi!) are suprisingly accurate and their looks are growing on me. I'm really considering getting one on the next 96 (July 4th) and tuning it for custom work (I have get gunsmith back in mid-MO that I'm willing to share :p if...

FAST Co. and BRM JUST arrived here at the Marine Corps Security Forces Training Company School here in VA. All there gear is very nice and not "TACTICAL BLACK," FYI. Looks like Safariland holsters (though I can't tell which model) and "standard" LBEs. Can't wait to start training on Tues. as...

I need to know a fair price on a SW 4506 (?no dashs?) with fixed sights and in excellent condition. I just got off the telephone with my mum and she said my gunsmith just got one in and the internals and externals are A-Okay. My gunsmith wants $425 flat for it. Is that fair or should I talk...

I've been hiding under a rock for almost the last half of a year (USMC Boot Camp and SOI) and was wondering if any "great and new and wonderful" designs have hit the market or if it was the some ole' stuff. My mom called me last weekend and asked to help her pick a new CCW (she was one of the...

Hey all! Been busy here at USMC SOI West but am getting done w/ training soon and I had a quick question: Where do I find Holsters for my Baby Eagle? I was using a Bianchi holster for the Beretta 92 before I joined up and was wondering if anyone knew of holsters for the BE. Thanks for the...

Have ~$500 that was intended for a LNIB DW Pointman Guardian .45 but was sold before I got to the shop tonight (just looked at the blasted thing on Tues!). So, I stuck with over 500$ budgeted out already. What to do... Should I upgrade my bare-bones Mossy 590 with some "tactical" items...

Hey all, Pvt. Lucky 7 (USMC) reporting back to TFL! Boot had its ups and downs, but I made it through and now I'm back home for a few days! Thanks for all the encouragement before I left back in Dec. It meant a lot to know I had all of your support here at TFL. Now to the important...

This is going to be my last thread here at TFL as I am to report to Camp Pendleton on Monday 12/6/2004. After Boot Camp (and SOI) I'll be stationed in Quantico for two years as part of the MSF Presidential Support Staff. After that its off to the Infantry for me! Thanks for all the (firearm)...

Okay folks time for some more praise for this all steel, 9x19, 16+1 shot beast. Had to wait 5 days to get this gun delivered (damn you UPS!), but I got it last week and 500 rounds later I have a review. First the cost was dead-on, less than $450 out the door. I opened up the sleek black box...

I AM PISSED!!! The local sheriff of METH County, excuse me, Osage County of MO has made a statement about an alledged thief and a weapon found in his home that WASN'T the thiefs. The gun is a Ruger 10/22 fitted with a "silencer." The sheriff said "this weapon has no civilian use" and "is able...
