    Ruger SR 22

    I owned an SR22 for a few years and was tremendously disappointed with it, mostly because mine was unreliable (despite completely babying it) to varying degrees with just about anything other than mini-mags, and I tested sooo many kinds of ammo. Good ammo for me meant "only" one FTE on average...

    focus on one pistol.

    My opinion would be to definitely keep both. If I were limited to only two handguns, I'd want one of them in 9mm and the other one in .45acp, no question. Gaining proficiency in two calibers is by no means over-the-top, and having a couple options might be to your advantage in a true ammo...

    p220 and p226 questions

    I own several Sigs including the P220, P226, and P239, and my hands are modestly sized...medium if I'm lucky. I have thicker grips on the P220 and very slender grips on the P226...both feel great! In this fashion, it's too close for me to call on which takes up more hand...it's really about...

    Is there something inherently different in Glock pistols?

    What's inherently different about Glock? Brilliant marketing strategy, first and foremost. Practically give them away to LE to build up that professional legitimacy factor, and then leverage that reputation in the broader civilian marketplace. Yes, they're good reliable guns for the money...

    Which PPQ .22?

    I'm the happy owner of 9mm and .45 PPQ's (4"), and now that I've sold my Ruger SR22 and have no other .22 handgun, a PPQ .22 is a no-brainer choice for me. However, I'm really on the fence between the 4" standard model and the 5" target model. The .22 would serve two pretty equal purposes...

    Hogue Aluminum grips for Sig P239?

    The top finger groove of the rubber grips that came with my P239 SAS tends to cram the knuckle of my middle finger into the bottom of the trigger guard and it's not always comfortable. Briefly considered the aluminum grips, but instead going with the excellent G10's.

    Recommendation for .45 range gun

    Thanks to everyone for their replies...very helpful. I'm not all the way there yet, but I've made some decisions. The CZ97 is out for this purchase. I'll keep it on my radar, and if ever one should make an appearance locally (hahaha), I'll evaluate its ergonomics at that time and very likely...

    Recommendation for .45 range gun

    I'm trying to zero in on a new .45, strictly for the range and HD. 1911's are great, but this particular purchase will NOT be a 1911. I own a P220 which I LOVE, but I want something new to play with (imagine that). I lean a bit towards metal hammer-fired pistols, but a good gun is a good...

    Marlin XT22T (tube fed bolt rimfire)

    I did a lot of research between the XT22 and the 60 when I was shopping for a .22 for my dad for Christmas. Any feedback I could find from people who had experience with both definitely gave the nod to the XT for accuracy, although both are of course fine rifles. I ended up buying an XT22...

    Should I trade or not?

    I'd be all over the FN like white on rice.

    Iron Sights

    I keep my CZ 452 in iron sights to shoot fair against my girl and her vintage Remington Targetmaster. Good times!

    CZ75B...good to go with 147 grain?

    I've always used 115 or 124 grain with my Nines, but yesterday ordered a bunch of 147 to experiment with. I did a little searching to see how other people liked 147 in the respective guns I shoot: Sig P226, Walther PPQ, and CZ75B. The Sig and the Walther appear to happily gobble the heavier...

    How much does it cost you for a year at your range

    I belong to two clubs. The first is $75/yr, which gives me access to seperate covered 25yd/50yd/100yd outdoor ranges, a 10 lane indoor pistol range, indoor and outdoor archery ranges, and trap/skeet. Paper targets only, no holsters. Second range is $35/yr. It is basically a private quarry...
