    yes, another thread about coating, I'm sorry

    I'm sorry to ask because it has been asked before but I'm a little confused. I also like others opinions. I'll try to be brief. - I have a Ruger Blackhawk and it's, I think, rust blued. Whatever comes factory. It looks ok, just not as cool as a black Nitride Sccy. - the hammer is pitted, was...

    Eagle Comanche II-a

    Does anyone know about this? Is it similar to the Llama model that I've seen reviews of? Is it double action? My understanding is that it's a cheap ugly piece of junk, but I want it as a novelty. I want something that is about as far from my ruger Blackhawk as possible. It needs to be safe of...

    American Derringer, they are still open 11-2015

    I spoke to them today. Their phone number is on the website but I'll post it here 254-799-9111 The lady I spoke to said that they no longer have dealers. They sell directly to the public and ship to an FFL of your choice to handle the transfer only. The DA 38 that I wanted is over 600 dollars...

    Shotgun newbie, help me pick one

    I've never owned a shotgun and I probably won't use one very often. It wouldn't be for self defense but mostly to have as a collection of sorts and partly to play with at the range. First I've been debating .410 versus 12g. I know 12g has a lot more power but when it comes to shooting holes in...

    noob question, can someone explain quad lock?

    gun newbie here. I don't understand a lot of the technical details yet. I'm looking at the Sccy CPX-3 that is coming out (research only, I'm happy with 9mm.) CPX=3 In it they mention the Quad Lock system that holds the barrel tighter. Is this really a good thing? We've had the giant recoil...

    Luckgunner now has polycase ammo

    Luckygunner now has polycase ammo I ordered a box in 9mm. It's still too expensive for me to purchase normally but I wanted a box to test out. I plan to try it in my Sccy and possibly in a bond Arms Texas Defender. I'll let you know how it works. The weight is quite low so I'm curious if it...

    ported barrels, are they any good?

    I've been day dreaming about my next purchase and I'm thinking about a Taurus Tracker 627. I'm interested to see what a ported barrel is like, especially on a revolver. I'd probably use 38 special all the time but I'd get a 357 so who knows. Also, do ported barrels help more or less on the...

    RTK triggers question- Sccy

    Has anyone used an RTK trigger? I have a Sccy and they have a long trigger pull. I've considered changing it out to one that can be adjusted for a shorter pull. I realize it's not the most important change but if it makes the gun easier to shoot (the trigger pull is a bit crazy now) then I...

    Bond Arms / derringer questions

    Ok, I'm going to buy a derringer, probably a Bond Arms because I don't care for the Cobra and American Derringer's DA38 is no longer in production and hard to get. I like the looks of the Backup model but it only comes in 45acp. I want either 9mm, 38 Special, or 357. I know I could get a...

    quoting on the site versus tapatalk

    I noticed that the site doesn't support quoting when replying. People are manually quoting instead but without adding the name. I suppose you could modify the quote text as other forums with quote=xxxx Anyway, tapatalk supports quoting so why doesn't the site? It seems like something rather...

    can you explain this wear pattern?

    This is my Ruger Blackhawk 357. The short version of the story is that my budget was around that of a Heritage revolver but my local dealer had this one. It's been in his case for about three years so he sold it to me for Heritage money, 400 dollars. I hope that's a good deal. My question is...

    Considering a sight upgrade on my Sccy

    I have a Sccy CPX-2. It's off to the service dept now for an inspection but will hopefully return soon. My dilemma is that I don't shoot as well with it as I do with my Ruger Blackhawk. Do you think upgrading the sight would help? The Ruger uses a simple front fin and large rear notch. I...

    Sccy is acting up

    I have a CPX2 Sccy that's been acting up. It's had about 300 rounds through it and is cleaned after every shot. The last time I went to the range I was using Military Balistics reloaded ammo. I don't know much about the company but the reviews were good. The gun works well with almost all ammo...
