So I didn't really see this question asked on my search, and I am sure it has been brought up here previously on TFL, but here goes, what was it that started you into shooting pistols? Also, what is it about pistol shooting today that keeps you going back to the range? (Ok, so two part question...

bought a revolver that is. I had several to choose from and I must admit that I kept both the GP100 and S&W AirWeight out for quite sometime. However after a lot of turmoil and indecision I finally settled on the Ruger SP101. For carrying purposes it seemed to be just the right mix of...

I did a search on this, but couldn't find anything. If it is a repost, the mods can delete it accordingly. All of our duty ammo is cycled out annually. We shoot the ammo that was given us to carry, to qualify with, and then are issued new ammo. My question is: Can ammo, get to old, and if so...

Need a little advice please. Recently purchased a new scope for a Ruger Model 77 rifle my dad gave me and I am having a problem taking the old scope out. It seems about 4 of the screws on the scope mount were "lock-tited"(sp??) in and I cannot budge the screws. Ruined 2 small flat heads...

Well I again come seeking advice from my good friends at TFL. I will try and be brief to kind of explain my scenario and ask the question. I have been shooting for about 25 years and have owned exclusively semi-autos with the exception of one gun, .357 Colt Python, which I kick myself...

Our Major over the SERT is looking at the possibility of getting paintball guns to help in tactical training scenarios, as well as giving us another means to deploy pepper spray. My question, which is to both LEO as well as Non-LEO, is what advantages or disadvantages have you come across, or...

I am a big fan of the .45 Auto. As a matter of fact most all of the guns I own are .45...I just recently started purchasing some 9mm, i.e. CZ 75 and Glock 19. My question is this, I have been looking very seriously into getting another 10mm (specifically the EAA Witness Limited), because I...

Here is one I have been thinking on for a while, and thought maybe it might be a help to get a "collective response" on. Did a search for this as well and didn't see anything, so I hope this is not one that was covered in a previous post and I missed. What is something that you do, that you...

Ok, so I am looking into some of the various training opportunities and wanted to get your opinions on training you have had that you feel was above and beyond anything you have ever encountered. As a side note, I am not worried about location and or cost. I am interested in something along...

Ok, so here is the situation. My dad has a Bulgarian Makarov that he just recently had parkerized and the safety worked on (along with 5 magazines) that he is wanting to get rid of. I have heard a lot about these guns, mostly good, some bad. He told me $125 for the whole package, which seems...

Ok, I have read multiple threads on the H&K P7 series, and it seems that the response for this particular model is you either love them or hate them. I have owned a lot of different pistols, but have never held and/or fired the H&K P7 series. I am currently thinking VERY (did I say VERY :D...

Wondering if anyone out there has any suggestions for handgun cleaning equipment that gets a handgun squeeky clean, fairly quickly. (Recommending solvents would be helpful as well..) For my particular situation, when qualifying, my firearm is inspected, no biggie, however after qualifying they...

Have you ever been in a situation in which you were unexpectantly confronted by someone, and learned a very important "gun carrying" lesson...what knowledge did you take from the experience, and did you change any habits, etc. to prevent it from happening again? Case in point, approximately 2...
