I think this one is going back to Kel-Tec for some care, but I thought I'd present the issue here in case anyone has seen this before. P32 running several different lots and varieties of Fiocchi 7.65 mm Browning (32 ACP), has recently begun this weird fail to extract. The result is very close...

I while back I bought another 856 because this one has a pinned front sight and a night sight was cheap. Well, I wasn't satisfied with the carry up timing on one charge hole so I thought I'd peen the corresponding ratchet/lug and refit it. No I didn't call Taurus first but probably should...

I don't ever see this posted about before. Besides the visible external improvements (capacity, sights, ergonomics, extractor) there is also a notable improvement in construction. The LCP II sear pin pivot is part of the polymer grip frame, but in the LCP MAX the aluminum frame extends down...

https://palmettostatearmory.com/ruger-max-9-9mm-pistol-12rd-3-black-3500.html Seriously. On clearance for $269. In a way it kind of makes me sad that Ruger went this way. But if you want one, that seems like a good price.

If interested, good price: https://palmettostatearmory.com/cz-cz75dpcr-9mm-91194.html ETA: Just for the record the price at the time was $499.

I'd been on the lookout for a nice 442 no lock. Found a 442 pro series NIB at one of my favorite shops and it came home with me back in 2022. The pro series is a standard factory model with a moon clip cut cylinder. After test shooting I discovered two issues with it that took five - yes five...

https://abc13.com/houston-robberies-customer-shoots-suspect-el-ranchito-taqueria-gessner-and-bellaire-southwest-crime/12663715/ The above link is a relatively brief local Houston news report which includes security camera footage with sound, showing an armed robbery in progress and subsequent...

Small frame revolver grips for pocket carry. After much consideration, reading, and thought, whatever I carry on my belt, I also want a snub 38 in my pocket. It provides a non-telegraphing option for hand on a weapon that will not go out of battery in a contact situation. Well known...

My recently acquired LCP MAX has been elevated to carry option for when I need a backup or lighter weight. It has proven reliable in basic testing, never failing to feed, fire, eject or lock back upon empty. PROS: Reliable, shootable, small and light enough to pocket conceal, 10/12+1, just...

Fair warning, he has allowed the full range of unfiltered language in the video, I agree with his reasons. This is a "road rage" incident in Florida which I thought was both interesting and instructive. Several times I asked myself how dumb can people really be, already knowing the answer...

Found this NIB King Cobra Carry in a gun shop in a glass case. Paid a little higher than MSRP but it's worth it to me. Don't think my Taurus 856 will recover from the shock: "There goes there neighborhood". It's very shiny except along the sight radius, where it is an understated matt...

I picked up this 1991 model 640 no dash 38 special in January '22. Because it is not specifically rated for +P ammo I have not fired it with my preferred loads: Speer 135 gr +P, Winchester ranger 130 gr +P. This is not one of the early 640s that was marked inside the cylinder window "tested...

Here is a picture of the inside of a revolver I picked up recently. It is fully functional and has a hammer block that is not in the picture. See if you can figure out what it is.

Back in 2017 I bought a used LCR 357. Shot it a few hundred rounds over the first few years and left it in the safe mostly over the next few years in favor of the 38 model and various pistols. Lately I decided to send it in to get the pawl adjusted so it wouldn't make closing the cylinder a...

Picked up a Turkish commander style 1911, just to have one for possible carry purposes but mostly because it seemed decently made for a low price (under present conditions). Tisas "Carry" model that specifically lists two things I thought well of: 1) forged frame & slide and barrel/chromed...

I recently acquired a Sig Sauer P365 XL, and have been familiarizing myself with it and validating it for carry. I think it's remarkable how similar it is to a pistol that was made 100 years earlier, and yet markedly advanced by comparison: The Colt is a Type III made in 1919 or 1920, holds...

IWB can be quite comfortable with the right holster and belt but I've not found IWB good for magazines. So I've taken to a standard belt-loop pancake type OWB mag carrier while carrying a pistol IWB. It seems odd to me but works fine. If I need to disarm temporarily the IWB holster snap loops...

Greetings. I have an Italian made SAA clone (.45 Colt, 5.5" barrel) that shoots high and to the right. I sent it in to be checked out since it has been this way since NIB. They inspected and tested it with some commercially available cowboy loads (Ten-X 250 Gr RNFP), and returned it to me with...
