Just curious if there's anything being produced at the moment that is similar to the Sig P239? 9 mm Steel or aluminum frame External hammer DA/SA or DAO Single stack Full finger grip I imagine it's a dying breed. Looking for something similarly thin. I already have a G19 and P228. I guess I'm...

Hi Guys, It's probably been over a decade since I've bought a new holster. I mostly carry wheelguns but am interested in having the option to carry my G26. I'm totally out of the loop when it comes to holster makers/manufacturers nowadays. I think I'm looking for a Kydex holster to use for IWB...

I recently purchased a S&W 696-0 and have yet to take it to the range. The problem is finding ammo for it in my neck of the woods. I don't have the option of buying over the Internet or via mail-order due to local ordinances. Of course, the obvious answer is to load my own, but I'm not quite...

So far, my favorite IWB holster is the Milt Sparks Versa Max 2. I can effectively conceal a 5" 1911 in comfort for extended periods. I have several of them for various firearms. However, I would like to see what else is on the market. I'm looking for a holster for a S&W Model 64 with 2"...

Just wondering if anybody knew whether the Sig P229 (9mm flavor, if it matters) will fit in a Milt Sparks Versa Max 2 designed for the P228. Thanks!

Please help me choose a 9mm pistol. These are some of the limiting characteristics to help narrow down the list of possibilities: Reliability - I'm primarily accustomed to revolvers. I'm looking for a gun that has a reputation for being extremely reliable in the 9mm semi-auto world. I want...

Just wondering if there is any secret in removing staked grip bushings. My primary goal is to not damage the threads on the frame. Keeping the original bushings is secondary, but would be nice. This is for a Colt series-70 repro. Thanks!

Although I can't CCW in my current state, I'll be moving relatively soon and have always thought about choosing either a Government or Commander-sized 1911-patterned pistol for CCW. I recently almost bought a Combat Commander for this purpose. However, seeing how the grip between the Govt and...

I don't have a Glock in my collection. I want to add one. I'm pretty sure I want the G19. I mostly shoot S&W revolvers in double-action mode. I don't have a trigger pull weight scale, but it is my understanding in DA mode, the trigger pull is often around 12-14 pounds for an untuned...

Can someone please explain to me what this means? Feel free to post pictures if it helps. It seems K-frames had this change in 1977. Is this something desirable? Or was it a cost-saving measure by S&W? Does it affect blued and stainless guns equally?

Bought my first S&W K-frame last night. It's an M19-3 w/ 2½" barrel. It dates to 1975 and has a yellow front ramp insert. Does anybody know if this was a standard option back then? It's my 2nd six-shooter. The only other revolver I own that holds 6 rounds is my .32 H&R Mag snubby. Also, I'm...

NRA dials up heat on gun ban Chicago's law in group's sights By Ray Long and Christi Parsons Tribune staff reporters February 3, 2005 SPRINGFIELD -- Fresh off its success at poking holes in a Wilmette handgun ban, the National Rifle Association has launched a new legislative drive to dismantle...

Hello everyone, this is my first post. I've lurked here for a long time and have learned so much. I was lucky to find this site when I first got into shooting a few years ago. Since that time, I've come to realize I really like revolvers as far as handguns go, especially the snubby. I have...
