    NiB Ruger LC9s pro

    I purchased my LC9S Pro from Gander Outdoors last year for $250.00. Tax included. I love the light trigger and the handling of this Ruger. I have never had a malfunction. It is the same size as my Bersa .380cc, so my Bersa has been retired. My LC9S Pro is now my every day carry gun.

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    I'm shooting factory fmj. Don't even count on the sights. At 10 yds It's shooting 5" high. I'm used to shooting Kentucky windage so I have no problem with it. None of my shooters had any problems. One guy stated it best. He said that it was only intended to shoot the distance from one side of a...

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    Last night, at the pistol league that I run, a bunch of my shooters shot this little gun. Everyone came away with a smile on their face, and everyone feel in love with it. The consensus also was that it was too bad that the barrel couldn't have been 3"

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    StrawHat. I don't have the older version so I can't compare. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the ATF boy scouts made Cimarron use a 6" barrel. I was contemplating having my gunsmith cut the barrel to 3" but Cimarron etched their writing across the entire barrel which nixed that...

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    Not really. It feels somewhat like my Cimarron Scofield cylinder but not as smooth. I would have no problems with safety about anything on this gun. I hope this helps.

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    I paid $525.00 for it. I have a bunch of Cimarrons and many original old west guns so I thought that this one had to come home with me.

    Cimarron announces Colt pocket model .380!

    Reviving an old thread part 2. I just got my hands on the Cimarron 1862 pocket conversion pistol. I took it to the range yesterday. It is a sweet shooter and as usual with Cimarron firearms, it is beautiful. It won't win any matches for accuracy, but the original was built to stick in a person's...

    .223 Ruger American- last round won't feed

    Just came back from the Range after shooting my new American .223. Same problem with the last shot. Exactly duplicates what you guys have been saying. Other than that, the rifle is a dream to shoot, cycles perfectly except for the last round. Guess I'll have to give Ruger a call on Monday...

    I am looking at purchasing a S&W Model 29

    I use Double Tap 320gr WFN Hardcast bullets with my Model 29-2 with a 4" barrel for big game hunting. For the Range, I reload using 6.5gr of W-231 powder and 240gr RNFP cast bullets. This load is very accurate and the recoil, like the guys already said, is no worse than my 1911 45ACPs...

    buying a pistol, what do you all think of the Ruger P345

    I have a Witness 9mm which is one of the finest pistols that I have shot. I shoots all of my reloads without a hitch, and is smooth. It is made by Tanfoglio, the quality is right up there with the CZ 75. Also you might want to look into the CZ 100 .40S&W. I think that the CZ 100 will be my...

    Open Carry

    We used to open carry in Ely, Minnesota where I grew up. Never thought anything of it. Nobody in town thought anything of it either. Going into the woods, or just coming out of the woods, we never bothered to take our sidearms off. Winter, or summer. That was before Sarah Brady and her bunch...

    Help with repairing Tanfoglio TA 90 9 mm pistol

    Good luck Sandy, Please keep me posted. As of now, my 90 seems to shoot without problems. We have had a cold spell in Minnesota, and I haven't been able to go ice fishing, so I spent WAY too much time in the reloading room punching out different loads for my 9mms. Hopefully, I will be able...
