    Carrying a HiPower chambered, hammer down?

    I'm the new owner of a MKIII but have owned a couple of 1911's and was told to NEVER carry this way - Always cocked and locked. That was a while back and It always seemed very logical. However years later, after owning quite a few other guns including some revolvers w/the transfer bar safety...

    Larger Case But Less Velocity? (9mm vs. .38)

    What's up with this? Why are all of the numbers for the 9mm @ 1100 fps +/- but the .38 spl only gets 900+/-? The case of the .38 spl is MUCH larger than the 9mm (luger/parabellum) but seem to be loaded much lighter... ------------------ Anarchism: The radical notion that I am the sole...
