Also I've check a Glock and flown out of and back to O'Hare

No problem at all, Chicago doesn't have any restrictions on what pistol or magazine you can own. I live in the area....

Another vote for VZ58!

While reading your post (1\2 way through) the dog went full beast mode, and ran to the back door, I dropped my tablet on the bed grabbed my nightstand pistol and a flashlight and ran after him in my underwear. Bump in the night needs swift response I don't give anybody extra time as I gussy up...

I went with a savage pc10 in .308 as my "all around" rifle. I've shot paper out to 600yds with excellent results using 168gr hpbt, and use soft points for hunting white tail in WI and hog in TX. I also wouldn't think twice on getting a 30-06. In my experience I've never seen anyone sold out of...

Don't trust the loaded weight numbers, I have a kahr P380, a SIG 238, Glock 42, the kahr is the lightest, followed by the Glock, the SIG is the heaviest. I have not noticed much difference carrying the Glock or kahr even though the Glock is bigger. The SIG just feels heavy and bulky on the belt...

I live in Illinois and carry legally, I don't really care if I'm seen, and I think no one really notices around here unless they're gun people too.

I have a set of real mother of pearl colt grips for a 1911 sitting in a drawer, not on my 1911.

36-1 should be a 3" heavy barrel 38 SPL j-frame. They were made with both square butt and round butt. I like mine, nice guns. 3" j-frames have full length extractor rods, are more accurate than 1-7/8ths j's, are more controllable, and the added barrel length means higher velocity.

My G42 fits exceedingly well in my Galco matrix 7x from my kahr k9.

I think this lists suggestions will repeat itself. I believe in cover your bases is what we are all saying. 1: ruger 10\22 2: autoloader pistol (9, 40 or 45) common brand and type of his choice 3: revolver in .357 (flexibility of using .38spl) 4: 12g shotgun (action type of his choice) 5...

Jericho 945, because it has gone bang every single time I've asked it to in the last 10+ years and with any ammo.

MinnesotaFats, you probably are right to suggest I should dig out one of the forgotten ones and re-fall in love.

I probably have 100 or so rounds of 20g buckshot loads put away.

Russ, if you go out and just impulse buy like I sometimes do you kind of run out of ideas. archangelcd, I have a colt 1991a1 that I let a gunsmith loose on and is just about a "race gun" minus the optics and compensator, also have a colt gold cup match, and a few more 1911's including kimbers. I...
