    +P+ ammo okay for Marlin Camp 9?

    Your experience with this rifle would be appreciated. I think that the long barrel will make the most out of a high-velocity round.

    Mounting Scorpion light to shotgun

    I would like to mount a Streamlight Scorpion light onto the extended mag tube of my Winchester 1300. What have you used ? Does the Scorpion bulb hold up under recoil ? Thanks. ------------------ El Cid '89

    Ashley Express Big Dot Tritium Sights

    I am seriously considering installing a set on my G26. I have heard that these sights aren't for precise target work at distance, but I think that the concept would work pretty well on a close-quarters gun such as the Glock. I would like to hear from those of you with these sights. Do you...

    SW99 striker spring

    I experienced two light primer hits with my SW99 9mm (round #450 and round #1600). Will putting a heavier striker spring on the gun eliminate this problem? Or is this problem associated with a firing pin that is slightly short? ------------------ El Cid '89

    9mm primer depth and Failure-to-Fire

    I had a FTF the other day at the range with an otherwise reliable gun. I was shooting dept issue ammo (Winchester 147gr SXT). I later mic'ed the primer and saw that it was seated to a depth of .009-.0095"; the rest of the Winchester ammo averaged .0075-.008". I believe that this difference in...

    Kahr K9 polymer - reliable? accurate?

    I had the opportunity to check one of these out today. I was amazed at its thin profile and liked the deep checkering on the front and backstraps. I know that some of these are in use now and would like some feedback on this gun before I contemplate buying one. ------------------ El Cid '89

    SW99 Night Sights

    FYI- I just put some Walther P99 Meprolights on my SW99 9mm and they fit perfectly. Installation was easy and the point-of-aim / point-of-impact was very well regulated. I ordered the sights from Arizona Gun Runner and received both a great price and great service. ------------------ El Cid '89

    Kimber compact/lightweight .40?

    Do you have any experience with this gun? I am intrigued by the Kimber product line and am trolling for opinions on the compact, lightweight .40. Why the .40 you ask? My dept. places the caliber ceiling at .40. ------------------ El Cid '89

    .44 mag 200gr Gold Dot

    Do you know of a source to purchase this round via mail? I just purchased a Ruger Carbine that might be called upon for home defense and I don't want a round that overpenetrates. Pro-Load makes a "Tactical Lite" round in this weight but they don't recommend it for my purpose as it might not...

    Ruger M44 automatic .44 carbine

    I am considering purchasing one of these rifles. What are your experiences with the gun? Is it still in production? What would be a fair price for an excellent condition rifle? Can you fire .44 Special through it reliably? Would you consider changing the sights or adding a scope? Is it...

    M1 Super 90 functioning and tactical buckshot

    When Federal tactical buckshot hit the scene a few years ago, I heard that it didn't always function 100% in gas guns, especially with the Benelli. Has this problem been worked out? Was it ever a problem? ------------------ El Cid '89

    SW99 9mm/.40

    I am considering purchasing one of these pistols after a test-fire session with a rental gun a few weeks ago. The rental .40 was very accurate, never malfed, and recoil was very mild. I have read a few posts that stated that the SW99 slide sometimes locked back with rounds still in the magazine...

    4513 TSW - Any thoughts?

    My brother just decided to join the ranks of those of us that wear blue 40 hours a week. His department will be issuing him a S&W 4506 (w/ 185gr+P Hydra-Shok)for duty carry. I want to get him an academy graduation gift and am thinking about the 4513 TSW as an off-duty gun for his use. I would...

    Novak's gold bead pistol sight

    Has anyone had any experience with the Novak gold bead front sight for pistols? I saw this in a magazine article several months ago and thought that the idea had merit. I would like to hear your opinions about sight visibility in low-light, direct sunlight, and on indoor ranges. I am...
