    Long term gun storage

    I believe in overkill. I did a test once with several oils and waxes and found Breakfree CLP worked the best by a good measue much more than their Collectors oil. I use rechargeable dessicant and a heating rod. I have never had a problem. Not even a speck of rust even if I took the guns out...

    Dropping Magazines.

    If you ccw and carry a spare magazine you should practice dropping the mag. If you train yourself to catch it and put it in a pocket you are wasting valuable seconds. If you don't carry a reload then I see no reason to drop it.

    On the subject of rails on handguns, who uses them?

    I do use Crimson Trace grips on a couple, I have found them to be reliable and unobtrusive. A rail would mostly be for a light but I prefer to not have it mounted.

    Calling all SP101 owners

    357 out of any snubby is stout but not bad out of these I can't readily compare the grip angle to anything else but it does feel pretty natural (my 2 cents) They do make a good CCW but because of their heavy weight aren't ideal for pocket carry. Kevin

    Looks vs Reliability

    "Looks, definitely. Especially for self-defense. I mean, the odds of me ever having to use it are so slim, but I'll pretty much always be fondling it. I have one of those .88 magnums that shoot through whole schools, so I sent it to Bryco for a great hard chrome job and it has custom stocks that...

    How to properly store Ammo?

    We may be Pal's but if Zombies chase us, I'm trip'n ya. Love that signature line I've got ammo from the mid 90 that got pretty hot in a garage for a few years that still shhots fine.

    lever or semi-auto.

    Another vote for the leveraction. They are fun and can be loaded with wax bullets and primer up to a hard cast that will knock down anything in North America.

    How do I stop cases from sticking???

    It is factory ammo and it appears to be in each cylinder.

    How do I stop cases from sticking???

    I have a Ruger 480. I had no problems with the first few boxes of hornady ammo. After a bit they changed the boxes and now the cases stick pretty tight in the cylinder. I called Hornady and they said they didn't make any changes to the round just the packaging so it is possible that it is...

    Battle of the .45's: Sig 220 vs. CZ-97 vs. Average 1911

    The Sig is my choice. I have a 220ST beside the bed. The reasons are it fits my hand well, have never had any problems, the extra weight makes for a faster double tap and for me at least points very naturally,

    Sig P220 and P220ST

    I have the ST just for that reason. It would be heavy for carry but for plinking, range time and HD it can't be beat. I have several hundred rounds throuh mine with no issues. I also put laser grips on it and have a sure fire in the wall safe beside it. I tried their weapon mounted light but...

    What is your favorite overall caliber?

    between 22 and 357 I had to give it some thought. The 357 wins out because of versatility.
