    I feel dirty, S&W Sigma 40

    The gun is working and your friend is happy. Sounds like he has a good gun. The Sigma does not have the super reputation the Glock seems to have with so many folks but it is a reliable and affordable gun. Also if your friend does have problems he has a great customer service group to back up the...

    Opinions of the Kel-Tec

    I got to shoot a kel tec at the range today, I was not impressed, the gun had several malfunctions and was not at all accurate. This result was the same both for myself and two other people who shot it. One was the owner and he commented on finding a replacement.

    The mystical +1

    I have used Wilson 8 rounders with no problems, since it is an extra round and still works reliably why not go with it.

    Need help selecting a new 22

    Given your choices I would go with the Ruger Single Six. Its a reliable gun and it has the added option of shooting 22 mag with the extra cylinder. As already suggested if you you can spend some more money go with a Model 41. I have had one for years now and its the best 22 pistol I have ever...

    Durability: 1911 vs. 4506

    I have two 1911's one of which is the new SW1911. I also own a Smith and Wesson Model 4505 which is the blued version of the 4506-1. I have not owned the 4505 long enough to honestly comment on the durability from personal experience. I bought the gun used and had a strange click in the...

    Old style 5904 holster

    Thanks Southpaw, Not very close though, I am in Southwest Virginia almost in tn. so it would be a long trip but I would still like the address if you could get it for me. I see plenty of holsters for the 5904 but most are for the rounded triggerguard. The holsters I have for my 4003 with the...

    Handy everyday knife

    Not anything ultra high tech or expensive but a handy everyday knife. Its a Schrade Lake and Walker Linerlock type lockback. It has a 3 1/2 inch blade that is about 1/2 serrated with a metal pocket clip. Its not the expensive one that first came out with all the high tech materials. I got mine...

    I Submit The Bhp Is The Ultimate All Around Handgun

    My Browning hi-Power is a great all around handgun, but being the ultimate all around gun I have to disagree. Were it capable of the first shot being double action without having to carry cocked and locked I would be more in agreement. Nothing against the hi-power at all, but I do prefer my 3rd...

    Old style 5904 holster

    Does anyone know if any companies still produce a holster for an older 5904 with the square triggerguard. I got the pistol in a trade but it does not really fit the holster I have for my 4003 and 4006's that have the round triggerguard. Any advice would be appreciated.

    better 22 lr pistol than a ruger?

    Sorry to hear an earlier poster had problems with their S and W model 41. I bought a model 41 in 1998, it is by far the most accurate pistol I own. It has had thousands of rounds through it with no problems. It came with the 7 inch barrel. I also got a 5 1/2 inch barrel for it that I mounted a...
