    Tell Me About The S&W Shield in 40 S&W

    I have the Shield in both 9mm and the newer 4 inch in 45. I'm trying to decide between rounding out my Shield collection with the 40, probably the PC version or trading my Sig P365 on the 365XL. I need to rent and shoot the 365XL to see if it irritates my finger the way the 365 does. I really...

    Charter Pathfinder Problem

    A friend has one of these. It has a six inch barrel and adjustable sights. The problem is that we are unable to elevate the rear sight. Turning the elevation screw counter clockwise is supposed to raise the rear sight. The sight will loosen so that it can be moved higher with your finger but it...

    Just Bought My First CZ

    That is if you don't count my CZ 1911, which is really a Dan Wesson. It seems that as soon as I start getting interested in something, they discontinue it. Such is the case with the CZ 75B single action only. My LGS sold out of them awhile back. Finally found a NIB model on Gunbroker and went...

    Confused by All The Shield Changes

    I have had two Shields, a 9 mm, that I outfitted with TruGlo sights and a 45 , which I gave to my son. Recently, I was torn between a Sig P365XL and another Shield in 40 or 45. I decided to get the 45 Shield and figured, what the hell, splurge for the Performance Center version with the porting...

    S&W Shield Barrel Length

    I'm confused. When S&W went to the 2.0 models on the Shield, did they lengthen the barrel? Newer models are decribed as having 4.0 inch barrels and older ones like mine, are described as having 3.1 inch barrels, yet nothing I can find, describing features of the newer 2.0 models, mentions a...

    Ruger LCP Custom Front Sight

    I recently bought a new Ruger LCP Custom. It was a Davidsons promotion, that I received in an e-mail. This is the one with the red trigger and the visible sights, visble that is until the second or third shot, when the front sight departed for parts unknown. I contacted Ruger, who promptly sent...

    Sig P365 with Thumb Safety

    I hear these are in the pipeline but so far none on Gunbroker and none at my LGS. I recently shot one and liked it, although it doesn't feel quite as natural in my hand as my Shield. My first Shield had no thumb safety but I traded it for one with a thumb safety, when I realized how little...

    Ruger LCP Custom

    I have an original LCP and have a chance to pick up the Custom (red trigger) LCP at a good price used. The sights appear superior to either the original model or the current LCP II. The wide trigger is certainly a better choice for myself as that trigger on the Glock irritates the heck out of my...

    S&W Shield Magazines

    I love my 9mm Shield so much, I just bought the .45ACP. If I thought the 9mm mags were hard to load, the 45's are worse. I can't get more than three rounds in the mag designed for six and that was after soaking it with CLP . The 9mm mags did loosen up a bit with use and I expect these will do...

    Favorite Sights for Shield

    Once again, I am going broke saving money. I succumbed to the rebate gambit and ordered a Shield in .45 ACP . On my 9mm Shield, I have TruGlo TFX with the combined tritium/fibreoptic sights. I like them but thought I would go with something different, like the TruGlo Hackathorn. I doubt it will...

    A New American Made Single Action

    Connecticut Shotgun Manufacturing is about to make available a new Colt SAA replica. I saw one this past January at the Vegas Antique Arms Show and was impressed. By chance, I sent them an e-mail the other day inquiring about its status and was referred to the website www.stdgun.com . Looks like...

    New Single Action

    Check out www.stdgun.com. They have some connection with Galazan , who specialize in high end shotguns. They are about to introduce a line of high quality 1911's as well as a line of single actions . I saw examples of both in January at the Antique Arms Show in Vegas and found them to be...

    Ruger LCR .38 vs S&W 442

    I have a nice custom 442 but am thinking about an LCR as it is a bit lighter . Anyone who has both and can compare the two ?

    Glock Trigger

    The last two times I have shot my Model 23, the trigger kills my finger. Feels like it's pinching. Can't remember it doing it in the past but haven't shot it in quite a while. Happens after the first 2-3 rounds and then keeps hurting. Anybody else find the Glock trigger painful?

    Novak Fibreoptic Front Sight

    Just got off the phone with Novak. Thinking about putting fibreoptic sight on the front of my S&W 3913. Forgot to ask them how long the sight is. It looks kind of long in the photo. Does anyone have a Novak fibreoptic sight who can tell me how long, front to back, the sight is? Thanks
