    Heirloom-quality pocket pistols?

    I regularly carry a Ruger LCP in my right-rear pocket, and I hardly notice it's there due to its small size and light weight. However, it is not what I would consider an "heirloom-quality" pocket pistol. While what is heirloom-quality is subjective, seems it would need to be of sufficient...

    SIG Sauer - designed in ... ?

    SIG Sauer Inc is organizationally separate from SIG Sauer GmbH: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIG_Sauer Are all SIG Sauer firearms still designed in Germany? Or are some of the newer products, like their AR-based line and the new P365 pistol, designed in the USA now?

    Copper/Polymer bullets - environmental impact?

    Does anyone here know much about the new copper/polymer bullets that are now available? Is the polymer used biodegradable? Or maybe it's such an insignificant amount there is no real impact? If not, seems like introducing more plastic into the environment isn't a good thing and just gives the...

    Remington R51 in American Rifleman

    I see the Remington R51 is on the cover and reviewed in the latest issue of American Rifleman: https://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2017/9/22/second-chance-remington-s-revised-r51-pistol/ Not a perfect review (they had magazine issues) but overall semi-positive. Is it too little too late...

    http://www.defensedevices.com/fox-labs-trigger-pepper-spray.html Has anyone used a pepper spray with a trigger top? Any thoughts/experience on the trigger top vs. the flip top? The trigger top seems more natural and could result in a better chance of getting that first shot right where you...

    PM9 vs J-frame for pocket carry ? Why ?

    I've read lots of threads here about folks trying to decide on a pants-pocket carry gun. In my unscientific observations, it seems the most frequent primary contenders are between the Kahr PM9 and the S&W J-frame. I've been kicking back and forth between the PM9 and 340PD as well for myself...

    LWS38 Ammo

    I understand the Seecamp LWS32 will only reliably feed/shoot hollowpoint ammunition. Does the LWS38 have similar ammo restrictions or will it shoot ball ammunition as well?

    S&W - Scandium exclusive ?

    S&W seems to have some real powerhouses on their hands with the Scandium AirLite revolvers. From what I've read, the Scandium alloys have almost the strength of steel but the weight of aluminum. Does S&W have exclusive access to the Scandium/aluminum alloy or is it something that can be...
