    3" barrel in .45lc (or .44mag)?

    I have seen some S&W mountain guns with 3" barrels. I normally think of this as being a bit too short for the .45lc or .44mag to develop full velocity. I've thought about 4" is the minimum needed. Also, I assume accuracy degrades with this barrel length. Are my assumptions correct? I like...

    Which .45lc? Ruger or Taurus?

    I've been considering getting a .45lc after renting a Colt Anaconda at the range a few times. A wonderful gun, unfortunately not made any more. The only two .45lc guns I can find are the Ruger Redhawk (I like double action), and I noticed a sweet looking Taurus titanium vented snubby in .45lc...

    NAA .22lr vs .22mag handling

    I have shot the NAA .22mag, and find it a very manageable gun, which can be aimed reasonably at short distances, and doesn't leap out of your hand. I recently saw the basic .22lr in the store the other day, and was amazed at how small the handle was on it. Is it possible to hold on to the gun...

    10mm out of style?

    At the range today, I wanted to rent a 10, and they have stopped carrying them. They claim only Glock is still making them, and they have goone out of vogue. Everybody is switching to the 40. I thought the 10 had staying power. Are only Glock still making guns for it? Canuck1911

    45LC vs 44mag vs 357?

    I tried out a 45lc wheelgun at the range today (a Colt Anaconda), although I don't normally shoot wheelguns. I found that I liked it a lot, and it made me think about getting a long barrelled whellgun. Perhaps someone could give me a quick answer to the following two questions: 1) Is the 45LC...
