    Red ramp front sight - yea or nay?

    I have a S&W 629 Deluxe with the red ramp front sight. Do you know where I can find a fiber optic front sight for it? I am not having any success.

    They are ALL factory loads. Underwood…the indents in the primers were very slight.

    Oh-oh….S&W 629 Deluxe Light Primer Strikes!!

    UPDATE: The strain screw was already tight. I cleaned all the externals around the firing pin hole, hammer and transfer bar and lightly lubed those areas. The cylinder has very little front to back play. Short of shooting it rapid fire in double action, is there anything else to be done at...

    CZ 75 D PCR compact v. Bersa TPR9c 9mm - your exp/opinion of either or both please

    I have the CZ PCR and a polymer CZ P07. They are almost identical in size and weight. The P07 has a better out-of-box trigger IMHO, but both are great hammer-fired decocker pistols.

    CZ vs. Beretta

    There are some great CZs out there besides the Shadow 2 for carry. The 75D series like the PCR or the P07 are great compact hammer-fire pistols with a decocker.
