My brother recently came into an older S&W revolver that I'm interested inlearning a little more about. I'm revolver dumb, but I'll try and get some of this right! There are no model markings anywhere that I can find. HEre is what is marked. Top of the barrel "Smith & Wesson .....patented Feb...

Only 1082 people have participated/responded on National Ammo Day? Pathetic! www.ammoday.com

A co-worker of mine just got one of the Fist Kydex holsters. Has one problem with it though - the fit is so tight that it is difficult (sometimes impossible) to draw from it. How can he loosen the fit up a little without damaging it?

My secretary just got her CCW and wants me to teach her proper safety and technique (she has not purchased a pistol yet). I want to find some written material on the safety rules and general stuff such as sight picture, grip, etc. for her to read and absorb before I sit her down with some of my...

does anyone know of a source for the Aker Express pocket holster?

My wife is taking jui jitsu (sp?) / karate and wants me to help her practice. (BTW - this is SO COOL). I need to get some strike pads and such. Know of any good sources? BTW - I'm fairly well versed in "practical" (not meant as a knock, "non-traditional" would probably be better) h2h personal...

So I was unloading my pistol the other day and noticed that the round in the chamber had a lot of oil on the back of the case and all around the primer. Seems I forgot to wipe out the slide real good last time I cleaned and oiled it (doh!). Of course, I replaced it with a fresh round after...

just thought I'd give folks the heads up that Dixie Ammo Dump has some police turn in 870's for $155. Website is www.armthepopulace.com

I am considering getting a spare slide release for my Kahr in order to knock down the "button" to keep it from diggin into my thumb and to lower the profile. Has anyone done this? Anything I should know or look out for?

I have noticed that Kahr sells a SS guide rod for their pistols. I was just curious as to what the reasoning behind this was. Are they heavier, thereby reducing recoil? If that is the reason, are they really heavy enough in comparison to the stock rod to make a difference? Or is it just a...

Most of you are probably aware of FLAG. (If not, check out the site at www.angelfire.com/ga4/rkba/flag.htm ). I am getting quite a bit of traffic, so it seems to be catching on. I really would like to have the site become a central location for information of concern to GA handgun owners. The...

I've been calling around looking for a P-32 and have been floored by the quotes I'm getting over the phone. The lowest price I've been quoted so far is $265. I can pick them up at gun shows for $220 all day long - only there isn't another show until next weekend and I want one NOW! Has anyone...

I recently saw the Aguila mini-shells and was intrigued. I have read that they do not perform well in an 870. I was wondering if anyone has seen or created a 2" shell and whether such a thing would work in an 870. Don't know if it would increase mag capacity over 2 3/4 enough to be worth the...

I am compiling a list of Georgia legislators who are CCW friendly for posting on the FLAG website. Please let me know who you know of who is on our side. I need name, address, district they represent, county or counties in that district, if they are up for reelection, etc. You can either post...

does anyone sell a replacement trigger group or some method to make an 870 trigger feel like a double action trigger (longer take up, heavier pull)? This would be for a gun dedicated to home/self defense is the reason I'm asking. Yes, I know to keep my finger out of the trigger until ready to...

The FLAG site has been updated - check it out: http://www.angelfire.com/ga4/rkba/flag.htm Bookmark it and check back often - more updates coming soon!

Sent my P9 back when it developed the trigger-pivot-pin-backing-out-of-the-frame problem that has been much discussed here. Sent it back on March 5. Called today and they said it should be shipped back early next week. Just a warning to those who have P9's or P40's that have not yet had this...

What is a fair price for a P32 in the southeast - particularly GA? Interested in prices folks have paid or have seen on the blued, parkerized, and chromed (or whatever the finish is) versions. Thanks in advance! http://www.angelfire.com/ga4/rkba/flag.htm

There are only 15 days left in this legislative session, so if you are going to contact your representative about HB 304, time is running out! Do it today! www.angelfire.com/ga4/rkba/flag.htm

AAGGHHH! THere was a thread a few weeks ago about problems with polymer Kahr's with warped rails and trigger pivot pins that "walk out". At the time, I had the former problem with my P9, but not the latter. NOW my trigger pivot pin is working it's way out. You guys who had this problem - what...
