    Colt Python: why so valuable?

    I have a mechanical seiko "monster" that I wear every single day. It lost a total of 40 seconds from the last daylight savings time to this daylight savings time. From my understanding it was built nearly 100% by robots. My omega, by contrast has much more human involvement in its...

    Is Shooting Sports a Dying Pursuit?

    There is definitely a declining trend.... Used to be there was a rifle range in the basement of most high schools. Kids would get on the bus with their 22's. Not anymore. Most high schools don't even have shooting teams anymore. Rod and Gun clubs used to be a central to many communities...

    Screw CT!

    I think that it is probably a town thing.... I have a non-resident ct permit, which is issued by the state not the town, and the process was very standard and straight forward. They must have been busy that week.... Big thumbs up for PA's non-resident permit process!

    SP101 for 638 Trade?

    Sounds like a good trade to me.... Then again, I firmly believe that the sp101 is the best 5 shot 357/38 on the market, so my opinion may be slanted. :)

    Ruger SP-101 What's the deal ?

    2.25" 357 sp101.... Best 5 shot 357 on the market. I mostly pocket carry mine.

    357 Magnum vs 45 ACP

    I'd rather defend with a 45 acp then a 357 magnum round. The flash, noise and recoil of a 357 are a huge tactical disadvantage. Couple that with the bigger hole made by the 45 acp and I'm sold.

    Unbreakable, concealable, perfect 1911 holster

    I really like Rob's stuff at simply rugged. Highly recommended. I have no affiliation with Rob or his company. I'm just a very happy customer.

    Would An Engraved Name On A Gun Turn You Off?

    It would sure bother me if "Kevin" had lost the gun in a gunfight... Otherwise, not so much.

    Are Semi-Automatics Reliable Enough to Carry?

    Ok... I haven't read the thread so I'm sure others have probably already said this but: For every 1 highly reliable auto loader I've seen, I've probably seen 2 that aren't reliable. This is obviously just reflective of my experience. Here's what I don't like about auto loaders.... They...

    Who here regularly carries a LARGE handgun?

    Well, a couple of weeks ago, after being unable to comfortably carry the 4" redhawk, I set myself up with a new rig. This has been working out very well for me. It's a 629 carry comp, loaded with 44 specials.

    Trusting a CCW handgun

    It's the act of clearing a chambered auto-loader that makes me uncomfortable. I must say that I was pretty unnerved one day when I needed to carry my 1911 and at the end of the day discovered that the thumb safety was no longer engaged. I mainly carry a revolver because to my mind, it is a...

    Who here regularly carries a LARGE handgun?

    I fully embrace my right to carry and happily accept the responsibilities and obligations that come with it. With that said, carrying my redhawk, iwb, for anything more than a few hours becomes physically uncomfortable (mostly the barrel digging into my hip/leg). Any recommendations on...
