Compact 1911 such as a Kimber or Glock Model 36. Thoughts? Comments?

Any ideas when and If S&W will come out with a 1911 Officer's Model (Scandium frame would be nice)? If not, what would you reccommend? Kimber? Can't really afford a wilson. The new Glock 36 catches my eye though I must admit I'm ashamed to admit it.

My father and I are heading west soon and we thought of hitting some Cowboy Towns of the past. Are there many places left, especially out west where people can still carry open as they could 100 years ago?

Sometimes I have this urge to go out and get some cheap, nickel plated POS gun. I just want a nickel plated, pearl gripped cheap little pop gun. I don't know why. Anyone else ever feel this way? Maybe it's like wanting to hire a sleazy hooker, I dunno. Maybe it's like drinking cheap beer, I...

I noticed Taurus is going to put out a Single Action Revolver. This company just seems unstopable. How long before they make 1911s? I for one like Taurus, I've had several good guns from them and they seem to offer for less what so many charge extra for.

I notice that chambering the same round often causes Set Back on most .45s I've had. I've never noticed it in other calibers. I'm assuming from what I've read that some ammo is worse to set back than others. Can someone reccomend a Defensive Carry Ammo that is less prone to set back? Thanks.

I got a SW1911 today and I'm thinking of changing out the grips. How about a show of choices? Thanks.

Taurs Model 605 .357 magnum I was looking at a small little Taurus Model 605 today. I was really surpised at the size and weight of this .357. Any comments on it? Thanks.

I'm thinking I need a pocket gun. How does this little thing carry. I live in South Carolina so I need something that can carry in light shorts or pants without pulling on my pocket. How well do these little things work? All inforation is appreciated.

I was feeling froggy today so I partially froze a cantaloupe until it was very firm, took it out to the woods with my .380 and 4 RBCDs. I was only about 2 yards away but when I hit it, it just about blew it in half. It tore a large enough to destroy about 45 % of it. My next shot cut a nazel...

I just went to chamber a round in my 1911 and not for the first time did it compress the bullet. I knew something wasn't right so I removed the magazine and ejected the round and sure enough, the end was pushed in. What does this?

What's a good single action? Not the best but not the cheapest either?

On the sig gunsight, I believe the sig 232 blue and stainless models are listed as having the same weight or little difference. My local gun salesman says the stainless model is much much heavier, as heavy as a Walther. Anyone know for a fact the difference in weight? Thanks.

I'm looking to get a new carry gun soon, a Sig 232 and with that, a new holster. I work in a kitchen, it's hot and I get really sweaty. What's the best material to protoect my gun? I have been using nylon but I'm sweating through it and my gun and mag have actually rusted some. Is leather safer...

Does anyone still make a true satin blue 1911?

I have a .44 Magnum Virginia Dragoon and I'm curious about grips. Are these like Colt grips? I'm providing a link to a picture and any information on the kind of grips I need to look for is appreciated. Thanks. Virginia Dragoon

Is a Star BM comparable to a Commander's Model or Officer's Model 1911? I'm looking to maybe get a holster for the gun. Thanks.

Are aftermarket grips availible for the Taurus 450?

I was watching Death Wish and he used a .32 in it. I have never paid much attention to .32s and I don't base this movie on reality but it does make me wonder, how potent is a .32 magnum? Information is appreciated. Thanks.

I want to think that once upon a time I saw a product that was like a little rubber slip on nipple that went over the spur of a hammer that proviced better grip. Anyone know of such a thing? Thanks.
