I bought a new box of ammo the other day for my 642. It is a box of 38 special wadcutters. Just glancing at the rounds, there is no bullet protrusion. I have not heard of these before and have not been to the range to shoot any of them yet either. Are these just range quality rounds? Are they...

I was finally able to take my month old Glock 26.5 out to the range to let it eat today. I had a glock 33 round mag, 3 Glock 10 rounders, 1 Glock 15 round mag, 3 Amend 2 18 round mags, 1 Magpul 17 rounder mag, and 1 Magpul 27 round mag in my bag with me. I am happy to report that the outing...

I am wanting to standardize on Glock 9mm for my carry and home defense purposes, mainly for the mag compatibility. I have the 19X for home and sometimes carry, but want something just a bit smaller for EDC. I believe my choices are the Glock 26 and the Glock 19. I can get the MOS version for the...

and I LIKED it!! It had the exposed hammer so that makes it an LCR x right? It was an okay price NIB $397 + 3% for CC and 8.25% tax. I didn't get it as it was the first time I had handled one. But it felt great in my hand. I was at the Mesquite, TX gun show. I'm thinking this is going to be my...

Went to Shoot Smart in Grand Prairie, TX today to finally do some shooting. I'd been neglecting my .22 LR guns and my .45 ACP pistols. When checking in, I asked if they had a 43X to rent. Sure enough they did. I got a private booth and spent about 1.5 hours shooting. Shot a box of 50 9mm...

I picked up a Shield 45 last week and took it shooting today. I was absolutely giddy after the first two magazines went down range. 13 shots fired and 13 hit the paper at 7 yards, all in the 8/9/10 areas. Things were not as precise after those two magazines though. I absolutely LOVE this gun...

I visited the Brownell's retail store in Grinnel, Iowa just now and saw that they had 10 Amend 2 AR 30 round magazines in a mag carrier plastic box for $74.99. I had never heard of Amend 2 magazines so I did not buy it, but $7.50 for a 30 round magazine is a pretty good find. What say you guys...

I noticed that Ruger has an AR 762 model that shoots .308 and 7.62 NATO. Is this the AK variety of 7.62 x 39? I looked on the Ruger website, but all it specifies is 7.62 NATO. I'm confused. Joe

Just finished the order online a couple of hours ago through Grab A Gun for my first AR 15. I vacillated between Springfield's Saint, Ruger's AR 556, Smith's M&P 15, and Savage's MSR 15 Recon. The Ruger and Smith were below $500. The Savage was $768, and the Saint was $799. I liked the specs...

I am a Texas resident with a Texas issued CHL. I find myself in Iowa from now until mid October. I know I cannot purchase and take possession of a handgun while here. What about a shotgun? Do long guns have the same restrictions? Joe

Okay, I gave my son in law my Xdm 9mm pistol. I have a buyer for my Glock 26. Once that transaction is done, I will be auto free except for my P22 Walther which doesn't get shot much. I still have a bit of 9mm rounds so I am thinking about a Ruger LCR 9mm. Any thoughts on this? I also want a...

I picked up a GP 100 4" blue .357 yesterday. I have never had a big revolver before and have never had a blue revolver either. So I have 2 questions...... 1. What holsters do you guys have for these big boys? Who makes 'em? IWB or OWB? 2. What will be different in caring for a blued revolver...

I am contemplating purchasing a S&W 64-5 4" revolver. It is a 6 shot .38 caliber K frame stainless steel. It was built in 1993 so it is pre lock and pre MIM parts. I have not seen it in person only in internet picts. I will be giving it the once over several times next week when I actually can...

I went to the local GS today and handled a S&W 637 Gunsmoke edition snubby. I must confess, I LIKED IT!! However, I did not buy it because it was $599. I need to do some more research at other gun shops in the area to see if that is a good price. What say you guys? Are they available cheaper...

Just recorded and watched "Faster" off satellite last night. Duane "the Rock" Johnson plays a bank robber that gets out of prison and starts killing the guys that killed his brother. He used a big revolver that had a smallish barrel length. I couldn't tell what revolver it was, but kinda looked...
