    What kind of interesting old ammo do you have?

    My wife's Grandfather brought back a Model 1911 .45 with 2 magazines and few rounds of ammo from Germany after WWI. The ammo was in a small 20 rd. cardboard box. We shot some of it but there are still a few rounds left. The box is dated 1915.

    Which handgun for newbie

    I think all these points have been made. First, what will she be using the pistol for, personal defense, home defense, target shooting, hunting, or just plinking? Then have her hold several pistols to see which fit her hand best and which ones she can handle best. Then shoot them if possible...

    Best Glock for Range use and Occasional Carry ?

    I have a Glock 19.4, 17.3, and 17.5. If you will only carry occasionally, I would definitely recommend the G 17.5. It is the most accurate, best trigger, and the most fun to shoot in my opinion.

    Red Dot on Glock 17 - need selection help

    I'm guessing it is a matter of having a low profile to the sight and have it mounted in the OEM recess of have the recess machined? My other choice could be to get a spare slide, have one slide with iron, one with dot. Seems better to have both on one slide. Are there any other dots that can...

    G19 replacement?

    I have a G19 gen 4, a G17 gen 3, and a G17 gen 5, and a few more. All 3 are great however, my favorite is the G17 gen 5 which I shoot the best. You mentioned that the addition will be primarily a range gun therefore, I would recommend the G17 gen 5. Try one if you can.

    Your "favorite" semiauto

    I have several Glocks, a Sig P238, a S & W model 36, and a Browning Buck Mark Target Pistol. My favorite Glock is the G17 gen 5. However, the one I shoot the most, is the most accurate, and enjoy shooting the most is a Browning Buck Mark .22LR target pistol.

    Glock 26 red dot?

    Definitely go with a milled slide because it mounts the red dot as low as possible on the slide. I have a G19 gen 4 with a slide milled by Jagerwerks. I move the Venom red dot between the G19 and a Browning Buck Mark .22 LR target pistol. The red dot works great for these old eyes!

    Buckmark, Victory or Ruger MK IV for a 22lr?

    I think it is great that you want to train your daughters to shoot. And the .22 LR is a great place to start. If your daughters are ready to start shooting I would involve them in the process of selecting a pistol. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the brands mentioned. But let your...

    Pocket 380 issues

    Glock 42 .380 is a little larger but absolutely trouble free and shoots great! Also have the Sig P238 but prefer the Glock for carry.

    Bought a new Ruger SR22

    I bought a Browning Buck Mark this year. I had been shooting mainly 9mm the last few years until I got the .22 LR. Haven't shot a 9mm since. The .22 is great fun and very accurate.

    G19 gen 4 or 5

    I have a G17 Gen 5 and it is the best shooting Glock I have. I also have a G17 Gen 4, and a G19 Gen4. I definitely recommend the Gen 5. And depending on how you plan on using the it, you might consider a G17 rather than a G19.

    Browning Buckmark Heggis Spring Flip

    I bought a Buck Mark a few months ago. The trigger was smooth with about a 4.3# trigger pull. I decided to flip the trigger spring and now it is super smooth with a trigger pull of about 3.2#. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, looking forward to shooting it.
