I have often joked about my age - over 60, off warranty, can't get parts . . . at least no parts you'd want - But I recently found out that I have cataracts, and they can be easily corrected and I can have 20/20 again (which i haven't had since 4th grade), but I will need reading glasses...

I have a Kimber Custom Royale with a Brazos Lighning Rod front sight and an MMC adjustable rear. While shooting to requalify for my carry permit last weekend, the sight insert on the rear sight fell out and was lost in the sands of the Albuquerque Shooting Park. So, in the course of trying...

I see Wilson Combat is now offering 10 rnd 9mm 1911 magazines, as is Tripp Research. Kinda pricey @ $35 and $33 each, respectively, for an extra round's capacity. Both companys produce excellent products, but has anyone had any experience with either of these?

Just a quick note to let my Brethern and Sistern in Arms that is have successfully relocated from Northern Virginia to Santa Fe, NM and have changed handles fro "Mike in VA" to "XLMiguel" (Big Mike). It was a fairly easy and [thankfully] boring 4 day drive across I-40, SWMBO and Jake the Cat...

Anyone have any experience with this device? It has two ceramic rods (medium & fine) that are held vertically, one at a time, and two angled guides that you run up & down the rods to get the bevel & edge. Looks pretty simple and easy. I currently have a Lansky that does a good job, but I'm...

I recently acquired a LNIB stainless Commander (#4091U). I had a chance to fire it this morning, and overall, I'm pretty happy with it, but I'm underwhelmed with the sights. I see that the front is pinned in (and loose, so I guess a drop of locktite is in order) and the rears are dovetailed...

I haven't shot my SIG P228 in 14 months. It was the first pistol I bought when I regained my interest in friearms in the late `90's. I took 300 rnds of Ga Arms Canned Heat and box of Fed Permium JHP out to the NRA range and proceded to work out. I guess I just had a great day, because I...

A little eye candy - I picked this up from a fellow THR member last summer. It was in nice shape, with Triji's, but I wanted to dress it up a bit. I sent it off to Robar & had them NP-3 the slide & internals, Roguard the frame, polish the feed ramp, and added on some Nills grips. She...
