    1911 Slide lock funtion

    It is a slide stop, not a slide release. I was taught to release the slide using the two-handed slingshot grip.

    CZ's "Black Polycoat"?

    Greetings, The polycoated CZ pistols are parkerized underneath. You can see it in the inside of the pistol. I haven't managed to scratch mine in three years. Good pistol. Regards.

    Whites need to become more like Mexicans!

    Maybe people with health insurance get diagnosed at a higher rate than those who don't. Psychiatrists don't get paid to treat well people, after all. Regards.

    Crimson Trace Overmolded vs. Standard

    I have owned both. The overmolded would be much harder to conceal, IMHO.

    Crimson Trace Mistake?--Put it on my 642

    The same thing happened when I put a pair on my 649. Needed to change to a nice, smooth squeeze. Also, allow for the "staging" of the trigger (First click pulls hammer back, second click locks hammer, third click makes hammer fall.) Regards.

    .22 Magnum Effectiveness?????

    I never heard of anyone seriously using them for anything bigger than a coyote. 22 Mag is actually a pretty hard-hitting little bullet though, IMHO. Accurate and quiet too. Regards.

    California - Here's your guy

    Yes. Too true. It is a pity that Arnold won't back out of the race and endorse a real leader.

    Possum invasion!

    I have the same problem The possums eat my pond fish. Pellet gun won't do the job. I use CCI CB longs in a Marlin 39A. Neck shots work the best. They poop when you shoot them, too.

    Henry Golden Boy in .22 -- anyone got one?

    Doug444 is right I own both as well. Henry Goldenboy is much smoother and better trigger, but has aluminum receiver. Marlin 39A not as smooth until well broke-in and the new triggers are sucky, but all-steel and built like a tank.
