My kimber does the exact same thing, I never worried about it because the gun works perfectly and has had about 10k rounds with only one malfunction caused by a defective handloaded round that was had a completely damaged brass casing. I second letting the bore solvent sit for a few minutes and...
To whoever said that Glocks, Berettas, Sigs, MP's, don't do it...you are mistaken. Also anybody who says that the gun is defective is also incorrect. It is commonly referred to as a "combat slide" and it is a design feature of a particular firearm. Glocks will do it once they have a few...
I have a sig 226 in .357sig. If you are going with a metal framed pistol I would highly suggest this one. If you go polymer I would really suggest a springfield xd 5 inch in this caliber. My best friend had one of these and it was an extremely accurate and low recoiling platform for this...
Yeah, bakelite, the same crap used on the ak74 that the modern day commies use, also the same crap the distributer cap on your older car is made of. Very very very hard, but very very very brittle.
My problem is that it is loaded weak, won't pass the FBI tests which are the standard for self defense ammo. If you want the effect of having the polymer in the end then go get a corbon powerball round, it actually has a charge of powder behind it that will do something. Yeah, yeah, I know a...
I have seen people shoot lead, yes old fashion lead, bullets through glocks. They will shoot about a hundred rounds at a time then go home and clean them and do it again the next week. No ill effects. I know it says definitely don't do this in the manual, but it seems to work anyway. If you...

No doubt they are excellent guns, but the price doesn't really make sense unless you just want to have the name to impress your buddies or have a "tactical pimp gun" on your belt for people to see.
So you can't afford one huh. "
I guess not, but wait...I CAN afford to...
At that price you are getting towards the relm of a new one from someplace like budsgunshop.com, but if it is nice and right in front of you it may very well be worth it.
Makes no real difference which one you get, the M9 and the 92 are really the same gun except the 92 has a plastic guide rod and trigger. The M9A1, which is the new one, has a 1913 rail, different checkering on the front strap, a dual buffer recoil spring like the 90-two, other than that same as...
They are great guns, but you pay for the privilege of having the name on it basically. Does it do anything a whole lot better than a nice springfield or Kimber...no...I've shot both and own the kimbers and springfields and they will put a round exactly where you want one and if for some reason...

…… My friend has an HK USP .45 (full size not compact) and it is probably equal in the recoil department to the 21.
No actually it’s not. I’ve fired both extensively. The USP is a much more uncomfortable pistol for my older hands to have to hang onto and...
I got something for everybody, take it to a freakin gunsmith and pay him 5 bucks and he'll fix it in about 3 minutes. Oh yeah, and the MIM parts being bad...somebody needs to learn a little about metalurgy before they bash MIM parts. I don't know how many of you know anything about cars but...
Having owned a true 4.25inch commander 1911 and a 4 inch springfield champion, the extra .25 inches of length adds just the right amound of weight to the front to make the balance feel right. The bull barrel of the 4 inch has some extra weight to it but it doesn't put it out at the nose of the...
I am a proponant of the speer gold dot 124gr +p and a huge fan of Double Tap's 9mm+p ammo using the same gold dot bullet. Standard pressure rounds with any quality self defense round will work in most situations. Drywall and light interior doors are no match for a standard pressure modern self...
Its a product of the whole ATK Federal/Speer company, supposedly imported by them from another company. I have shot a lot of it and it is very good quality, clean for practice ammo, accurate, never had a problem with it of any kind. Seems to be loaded a bit hotter than white box, but really...
As described above, just take anything that is about the same size as the detent on the bottom of the mag floor plate and push it in while you slide the floor plate off. Depending on age, dirt, grit, whatever, it may need to be sprayed with some gun cleaner/lube to help get the floorplate...
Would a 3" 1911 (say, a Kimber Ultra Carry II) have less perceived recoil than an XD40 service?
I know I know... I just need to shoot one, but I am compelled to ask anyway
Uh...if you ever want to ring your bell real good, just shoot a 3" 1911 in .45acp...an XD40 service model will feel...
