I have been looking online and apart from pictures have not seen any news on the Fortis. Anybody stop by there at SHOT? I am reserving cash for one. That will give me a pistol I have been wanting since I was a kid and the Bren 10 was new. :D John

I know this is probably a dumb question but figured someone here would know for sure. I bought a 1026 that is in nearly perfect condition. Someone painted the grips but that was easily fixed with a new set. They also added an extended mag catch. I will just leave that alone. The most...

This is a newbie question here, but I am not as familiar with HK pattern weapons as other firearms. What is the difference between an HK G3 collapsing or folding stock, and one for a 33/93? The price difference is substantial at least for the collapsing ones. I did some Googling and came up...

A good friend of mine is wanting an 82 and I see that SOG has a good price right now with two mags. Has anyone bought one from them lately, and if so how did it look? He is new to owning pistols and I would hate for him to get a problem one. Thanks in advance! John

Gang I was handling an M&P 45 at the local fun shop today and made up my mind that I do want one. For those of you who have both (or at least handled both), is the size savings in getting a mid-size worth it? I would CCW the pistol and like my pistols to be around the size of a...

UPDATE: DSA's owners have decided not to respond to Jesse Jackson and are thus canceling their call for a counter-protest. See post 31 below for the letter from DSA management explaining their decision. Gang, I am cross-posting this here from FAL Files with the moderator permission...

Gang, I don't know if any of you live in Missouri, but the first ArmaLite pistol (mine) is at 417 Guns in Springfield, Missouri. If anyone wants to take a look before I pick it up, feel free to drop by. Just try not to scratch it. ;) John

Gang, The ArmaLite pistols are in country. I would expect them to start going out fairly soon. There are only 500 here so it may not take long for them to sell out. Pricing should be around the same as a CZ-75. There will be a mix of models: full-size and compact basic model...

Gang, Just curious if anyone has fired one of the .38 Supers yet? The stainless model with rail appeals to me as a candidate for 9x23. If anyone has shot one I would welcome comments on the gun's performance, trigger, etc. Of course I could hold out for the PT1911-38, but I am not...

Gang, I am pleased to be the first person to release pictures of the new ArmaLite AR-24 pistols in their production configuration. Mark Westrom sent these to me a couple days ago and just authorized me to release them. There are two shots of the basic gun in its production state, and a...

Gang, I was at my local funshop today and handled one of the current model P99s. I was very impressed by its size, ergonomics, and trigger reset. Seems like it might be a good option to fit a roll for me. I have been looking for something light, flat, and fairly compact to carry when I...

Gents, I am considering both guns for a spare CCW pistol. Their dimensions seem to be about the same. I am curious how they actually compare in size for CCW purposes. Anyone have both and care to comment on how they compare in bulk? GR

Gang, ArmaLite has asked me to pass along their survey of handgun shooters. I posted it for download here: ArmaLite Survey They would like anyone interested to fill out the survey and email it to the address listed in the instructions: [email protected]...

Gang, This does not entirely fit in this forum topic area, but given that it pertains to a job change for a person deeply involved in the importation of Tanfoglio semi-autos (and that many of us here know) I hope it won’t be too out of line. I know that many of you who are fans of...

Gang, This will likely be my last review of an EAA gun due to the departure of Marc Galli from the firm, but I wanted to pass along my impressions of the new 10mm P-Carry model for fans of the 10mm round. I also wanted to fill you in on the quality holsters offered by Cross Breed Holsters...

Gang, Armalite would like to know if we prefer our CZ pattern guns in metal or polymer. What does everying prefer? I said metal, but said I would ask the rest of the gang on the forums. For reference, here are pictures of Sarsilmaz's polymer and steel guns: I will refrain from...

Gang, I got a case of catalogs from Armalite showing the entire current Sarsilmaz pistol line. I thought some of you might find a couple pistols interesting that are not shown on the web site. The K2 model is their decocker, but also features a breech locking design from what the...

Gang, I asked Mark Westrom’s permission to post Armalite’s response to the suggestions regarding their new pistol line from myself and forum members. He was glad to have me do that and welcomes further feedback. I think it is worth noting that he is extremely qualified to develop a high...

Gang, I know some of you will have already seen this at AR15.com, but Armalite has just announced that they will be importing the Sarsilmaz CZ pattern pistols into the United States this year. For those of you unfamiliar with these guns, Sarsilmaz makes reportedly high quality CZ-75 pattern...

Gang, I have liked the Super for many years and again find myself tempted by a 1911 in that caliber. I have had a couple (Colt Commander, Kimber HD II) and let them go for various reasons. I miss them though. I was thinking about an XSE lightweight Commander or maybe a full size GM...
