It is to breakup the outline of the gun. Billyp

Not to derail the thread but...One thing I have seen that helped my wife with some of my guns is to hold the slide with her weak hand and instead of pulling back, hold that hand steady and push down with the strong hand. There is a lot more force that can be applied that way and might help...

Actually on the MK9 it has been pretty reliable. However, the slide cracked and the frame right below the trigger guard has some stress cracks. It has been back to Kahr once and it look a little over a month to replace the slide. I did purchase the P3AT, and have it in my back pocket as I...

I agree, the Bersa is a great gun that shoots very well. I have thought about it a little more. I think im just going buy the P3AT and keep the Bersa...you can never have to many guns right :).

I have a Bersa Thunder .380 that I never shoot it is just to big to carry as my primary carry gun is a Kahr MK9. I know everyone says never trade a gun but that Bersa just sits on the shelf and never gets shot. I have been looking at the P3AT for a while but it never really impresses me with...

Thank you for the quick replies. I like the look of that Dan Wesson, but if I'm thinking full or comander that really opens up my options for makers. Sigh...what have you guys done to me again :rolleyes:. I thought I had everything thought out and was sold on the Kimber Ultra Carry II. Oh...

Im looking at getting a 1911 style gun but am torn about getting a full-sized gun v.s. a more compact model. This will be my primary CCW and as of right now I carry a Khar MK9 and like the size but want a little more stopping power and I like the 1911 platform. What do you guys think...

Just got a call from my local gun shop they got in an Ithaca model 37. It has a vent rib, engraving with the dogs and pheasants. They said it is good condition, I have not seen it yet. Do you think 250.00 is too high? This does not have the corn cob forend :( Thanks, Billyp

Second trip to the smith I took the gun back to the smith last week...he closes at 4:30pm so I have to leave work early two times to drop off an pick up the gun. I pick up the gun and it looks like a punch and tried to draw the metal on the sight dovetail just as was sugested here. I...

I recently had my new Meprolight tritium sights put on my Khar mk9. The smith charged me $50.00, which I thought was a little steep since all he did was use a drift punch to mess up the finish on the gun and the sights. He also did not sight the gun back in to make sure what he did worked...

I buy my ammo and some guns from Academy Sports. They always have enough helpful people on hand to show guns or answer questions unlike the local bass pro shop. .22lr - 9.75 - 500rds 9mm - 6.77 -50rds .223 - 4.30 (lacquered) - 20rds .223 - 6.89 (brass case) - 20 rds 20/12 ga - 3.89 a...

I just acquired a used Kahr MK9. Took it to the range today and had a good time with no problems in the 50 rds of 9mm I had with me. However all my shots where high of POA. This got me to thinking I have never had a "dot the I" set of sights on my guns before do these come from the factory...

Well...that is not the response that I expected. Thanks everyone for the input. Based on the overwhelming opinion so far this ammo will not be shot out of this gun. I have a friend who is really into reloading and has a chrono and a .357 we may test it there. Thanks again. This is...

From a previous thread, I "inherited" a Taurus model 85CH .38 special. I also got bag of ammo it is marked WCC +P+ on the headstamp. Is this safe to shoot out of this gun? I have never shot any +P or +P+ ammo in any of my guns since I mostly target shoot and have no need for the hotter...
