    $400 striker/9mm

    I've got about $400 for a new gun and want to try a striker/9mm. I was actually thinking about the Ruger SR9, but would like suggestions if you have any. I've heard the trigger is probably the best in that price range...?

    Inside the AR bolt carrier

    It's literally been 30 years since my last AR, just bought one last week and put a few rounds through it. I broke it down to see how dirty it got and do a bit of cleaning, all went well but I noticed a small patch of carbon junk on the inside of the bolt carrier where I couldn't reach too well...

    Colt D.A. 41 Thunderer - inherited

    I inherited this smoke wagon from my grandfather... I have no idea what its value or rarity are. Any information or opinion on this gun would be much appreciated. I did look up the serial on proofhouse, it was made in 1903. There seems to be a little corrosion on the outside of the cylinder...

    AR-15 kits or parts

    It's been 20 years since I had an ar, (used to have a Colt). Now I'm finding myself longing for it back... but I'm poorer than I was then, so now I'm looking into putting one together. That said, are kits the way to go for a semi-noob in the ar arena? I don't think I know enough to get the...

    New pf9 - close inspection

    Just bought a new KT pf9 this morning and man am I shocked!!! This thing is really lightweight!!! it is also thin as an anorectic supermodel. I've taken it apart and cleaned it up a bit and have noticed some plastic shavings toward the end of the guide rod. I can see the machining marks on the...

    Feed/chambering problems

    New P95PR, took it to the range twice. First time out my wife and I put 200 rounds through it with a lot of feed jams and a few failure to chambers. I chalked it up to some of the old ammo and my wife's week wrists. Took it out this morning and put a new box of Federal 115 FMJ thought it and...

    Old ammo, Ok to shoot?

    I have a friend that gave me 400 9mm rounds (I just bought a P95). He said they were 10+ years old and have been in dry storage. As I inspected the rounds I noticed that some of them have some crusty stuff on the outside of the casing that I can scrape off. Also, 300 of the rounds are hollow...

    Cleaners for poly guns

    Noob question... I just bought a P95 and don't want to damage the polymer. I've heard that some cleaners will do that. Which ones should I stay away from? I use CLP on my shotgun, but am unsure if that will damage the P95...

    handle size

    I've never had nor handled an autoloader, but am looking to buy my first one (probably a p95D). So here's the newbie question... I notice there is a 10 round model and a 15 round model, does that mean that the handle is not as fat? or are the models the same size and the mags different? I'm...

    shoot or not - colt 38 police special 1925

    My grandfathers revolver was passed down to me and I was wondering if I should fire modern ammo in this revolver. Would it damage the gun, what grain/type should I use? I looked up the serial number and the gun was made in 1925 and looks in almost new condition. TC
