    Guns We Regret Parting With, Glad We Parted With, Glad We Almost Parted With But Are Glad We Kept

    My biggest regret is the S&W Model 27-2 that I bought back when they were cheap, and now that I want another one these are going for crazy money. The 2 that I’m glad I parted with are the .40 S&W Gen4 22 and the Tutone CZ 75B The one I almost traded off for nothing but am glad I didn’t is the...

Since I’m still waiting for my BOF 4019A form to be approved which is the New Resident Report of Firearm Ownership, I went & had a Basic Ammo Background Check done for $19 which is good for one ammo purchase within 30...

    New Sights and Trigger Assy. on my old Gen3 Glock 17

    I recently upgraded the sights and the trigger assy. on my Gen3 Glock 17. I’ve had this one almost 10 yrs. and probably 30K rounds through it, so I was way overdue to swap out the sights. And although I’ve always said that the stock Glock trigger with a little polishing on the contact points was...

    Define a Perfect Trigger Pull....

    ...a perfect trigger pull means that the front sight doesn’t move at all when you pull the trigger. I read this in the latest Combat Handguns gun rag and it says a lot about the fact that the gun itself only gets you so far, the shooter has to hold up his end of the deal to properly ventilate...

    Polymer Striker Make vs. Model / Caliber

    OK you can pick 2 different polymer striker makes, models / calibers, but here’s the twists to the situation; 1) You have to pick 2 different makes, models and calibers of striker-fired guns, 2) These can’t be guns you currently own, 3) For Peoples Republic of Cali (“PRC”) gunners, these don’t...

    Ninth Circuit Court Upholds California’s Unsafe Handgun Act

    After two different Ninth Circuit court panels surprisingly upheld 2A rights by (temporarily) blocking California’s confiscation of large-capacity magazines and Hawaii’s ban on open carry, the Ninth Circuit returned to its liberal agenda. In a ruling this past August, it upheld one of the most...

    Trigger-Locked Guns at Cabelas

    There was a nice BHP Mk II for sale in the Gun Library at one of the local Cabelas. The first time I saw the gun, I nicely asked the attendant if I could remove the lock to check the trigger and see whether the mag disconnect was still on the gun. The attendant advised me that the trigger locks...

    New Glock Model 45 9mm

    https://youtu.be/zMFSqLpHYdg New Glock 9mm, essentially a Glock 19x in standard black with the Gen5 flared magwell and the first time for factory front cocking serrations. Looks like another winner here, primarily intended for the LEO market and I agree with sootch00 that the 19x is the best...

    You Own Several Different Gun Brands, So Which Brand Gets Range Use Most Often & Why?

    You Own Several Different Gun Brands, So Which Brand Gets Range Use Most Often & Why? I own 1911’s, S&W Revolvers, Glocks, SIGs, HK’s, CZ’s, a BHP and a Walther.

    https://eu.glock.com/en/products/glock-options/steel_luminescent_sights I just sent my 19x slide back to Glock to have these luminescent sights put on. I have had good experiences with the luminescent sights on my HK P30, so I figured I’d give these a try. Any good, bad, or indifferent...

    How many more Polymer-framed, Striker-fired Service Pistols do we really want or need?

    So if that CZ P-10c model, and the concept it represents, really takes off for CZ, I would certainly hate to see CZ begin to phase out the traditional DA/SA metal-framed hammer-fired service pistols, in favor of more variations of the striker-fired polymer framed models. There is no doubt that...

    Just Saw a Guy Transfer A Perfect 6” Model 19 Nickel Finish to Another Friend

    For $650.00! Guy selling it had all of $250.00 in it from 20 years ago and claimed to have about 20 rounds through it in all that time. Based on the cut of this one, believe it. Perfect S&W target grips on it. Guy behind the counter who was only making transfer costs on it suggested putting a...

    Fair price to pay for a LN Browning Hi Power Standard w/ Adjustable Sights?

    Well I saw a really nice one today at the local Cabelas Gun Library for...wait for it....$1,400.00(!?) I guess if you want one bad enough then this is pretty bad! I know part of this is the fact that Browning now has these out of production and the other part of it is that prices in the local...

    Grip Force Adapter on my Gen3 Glock 19

    I put the smooth contour grip on my Gen3 19 to avoid slide bite and I took it out to the range to see if it would work for me. On the package it states that it “changes the grip angle to improve the pointability of the Glock”, “provides better control (during rapid firing)”, and “provides an...
