I just placed an order with him, and - even though it's not here yet - I had such a great experience I wanted to share it. I'll update this blurb when my package actually arrives. I'm not generally shy about sharing bad experiences, so I figure I should talk up the "good guys" too. First off...

Is disturbing how much I like this p229. I don't even have a holster for it, so I haven't had a chance to carry it yet, but I think it may wind up supplanting my trusty g19 as my go to gun. I don't even mind that it's a .40. If I'm doing really intensive shooting I still have the glock, and for...

I recently acquired a Sig 229, and a kydex holster doesn't seem classy enough for it. So, I'm looking for suggestions for an outfit that makes a decent leather owb rig to wear under a jacket. I like the looks of the galco "concealable belt holster" but would like to get something a little closer...

I've been keeping my ear to the ground for a p229 for a while now. Unfortunately, they're not common in these parts, and I haven't been able to justify the price of a new one. So I this past week i was pretty excited when I was able to trade for one in .40. It's used, but you couldn't tell be...

I've been thinking about building a new ar in .300 for hunting, and would prefer to buy a complete upper/barrel. I've been happy with bcm for my 5.56 builds, and was wondering what companies would be of a similar quality/value for a .300 build.

Is anyone else excited about the prospect of inexpensive, american made, and presumably reliable pistol mags. Not that glock mags are particularly expensive to begin with, but they're not quite "stashable" cheap - for me anyway. I think I heard $15ish msrp, so probably a little lower as a...

I've wanted to try out a DA/sa for a while now, and I'm starting to lean towards cz. I enjoy my glock 19 immensely, and it's not going to go anywhere, but other than a brief experiment with a 1911 I've mostly just owned poly striker guns, and do if like to try something different. My question...

What's the problem with them? At least when it comes to advertised sales (like classifieds), and excludes family. As long as there's no record keeping associated with it, I don't see the problem in making sure a person who's buying a gun is legally allowed to own one. I've bought and sold a lot...

BCM is apparently running a deal right now where they're throwing in a mod 1 muzzle break and a bolt carrier group with the purchase of any complete upper. Of any of you all have been waiting to start another build, now might be a good time. I had an extra moe handguard already, so now I'll...

I love my Ruger, but there are not nearly as many options for grips as there are for S&W. I have never looked the looks of the Lett grips, and while I like the Hogues for target practice, they're a little big for carry. Also, I'm not a huge fan of finger grooves, because they lock you into one...

Corbon 62gr DPX specifically. I'd like to hunt with my AR (5.56, 16", 1:7) this year to internally justify what I've spent on it, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with that load. Or, any suggestions on something better. I'd ordered a couple boxes with the intention of using...

I'm planning on buying a new barrel for my AR. After that happens I'll have nearly enough parts to build a second (in that, I've already put together a lower made largely from extra, or "upgraded" parts). I've always liked the looks of the classic a2 upper, so I was thinking of going that way...

My dad - recently retired from the CG - has decided that he'd like to start carrying. He wants something that can run rat/snake shot reliably - so, imho, a revolver. He wants something metal-framed that's small/light enough to carry comfortably in a vest pocket, but not so small as to be...

I've decided that I'd like to get a SA. Since I already have 2 .357's (sp101, gp100) another one would simplify future buying/reloading. I know that the Blackhawk is slightly bigger, and has adjustable sights. Are there any other major differences? Aside from being closer in size to the SAA and...

I decided I wanted to see what the whole AR thing was about, and since I didn't have a whole lot of money at any given time - and needed a winter project - I decided to buy it part by part and put it together myself. Now I finally have it put together and put some rounds through it, so I thought...

I have the opportunity to buy a shadow ops weaponry lower for like $180. I could also buy an aero precision lower locally for $100. This being my first ar build I have no experience with either, but I'm wondering if the shadow oops is worth the extra money. Money isn't a big issue, but I could...

Are the posters championing civil rights, or just being intentionally abrasive so they can get some attention? A post was recently shut down in the handgun forum, but it got me thinking. Personally, while I am 100% for having legal open carry, I tend to find the endless stream of "police...

I'm posting this in general because, despite the title, I'm talking about revolvers as much as semis. First off I consider myself a Glock fan. If you were to talk to me at the range and ask me what my favorite hadgun brand is, I'd probably say "Glock". I like the ergonomics, I like the trigger...

I'm thinking about buying a Taurus PT22 for my wife for Christmas. Specifically, the version with the wood grips and gold highlights. I had considered the equivalent Beretta, but they're not available locally, and I can get the Taurus for right around $200 new. She's not a gun person at all...

I have decided I want another 1911. Rather I want a 1911 again. It looks like I might have some money to spend this spring, so there's no rush, and there won't be any exciting pictures any time soon. And with 1 kid and another on the way there's probably a better than even chance I won't wind up...
