    9mm snubbies

    Every time I get in the mood to sell my 905, I find a thread like this one and feel glad that I still have it. I would not want a lighter frame as 9mm packs a pretty good punch (more than my model 36 and Colt Cobra in .38 sp). Mine has the optional grip from Taraus that is a longer than the...

    Browning BDA .380

    I had been looking for a PPK when I saw the dark blue of the DBA. I kept mine beside the bed. Someone broke into our house about two years ago and took mine with him. I'd love to have mine back. That's a excellent price also. Grapevine:banghead:

    Free place to shoot in NC, Raleigh or nearby?

    I've never been, and it's not exactly free, but I've heard that the Wake County Range is a pretty nice public range and it's not too far from Cary. http://www.wakegov.com/firingrange/default.htm Grapevine

    Ruger LCR in 9mm?

    I recently acquired a Taurus 905 (9mm). It had the larger grips that are available from Taurus that gives you a place to put your little finger. I put the originals back on because of the lower profile when carrying IWB. I did not notice any difference in the recoil between the Taurus and the...
