    XDs vs J-Frame question...

    Thanks Beeb and Sean Those are good observations. I can rack the slide with no problem, I just can't take too much pressure if my wrist bends backwards. As for carry, I usually have the J in a Simply Rugged Silver Dollar Pancake holster. In warmer weather it is IWB. The XDs would probably be...

    XDs vs J-Frame question...

    This may be an unusual question, but I am looking for some guidance. I have been carrying a J-Frame 642 Centennnial AirWeight for the past three years. It is a special edition that has the 2 1/8 underlug barrel, like a model 60. With a Crimson Trace grip it is easy to shoot. My problem is I...

    I have been wanting a SW Bodyguard 380 but have held off due to early QC problems. Does anybody have experience with the newer releases? Are the QC issues mostly resolved? Thanks for any insight.

    Price Advice on a Freedom Arms 252?

    match cylinder.... Thanks for the advice gentlemen. I know that there are match cylinders available with the FA and it makes loading a bit more of a task. I have to check to see if this has a match cylinder or not. Also, I assume a regular bore cylinder could be purchased as an option too......

    Price Advice on a Freedom Arms 252?

    My local shop has a very clean used Freedom Arms 252 revolver for sale. This is the 10" silhouette version but it does not have a rear sight. Instead it sports a nice silver Leupold 4X scope. I know these are pricey revolvers. They are asking $1495 for the package, don't think they have the...

    AR trigger question

    JP spring kit is in.... Installed the kit tonight, just before the Winter Classic. Pens lost!!:cuss: Chalk22 and JSimmons were right....the JP spring kit really does make for a nice trigger pull. The Bushy trigger in mine is a single stage, no creep, no over travel....just really...

    AR trigger question

    Thanks for all of the insight.... I think for starters I will most likely just use a JP reduced power trigger spring and see if I can be consistent with the Bushmaster single stage trigger. Then I will decide if an aftermarket trigger is needed. Thanks for all of the good information. I...

    AR trigger question

    Just picked up a Bushmaster V Match (used). If I want a lighter trigger pull is a spring mod the first step? I am new to the AR platform. I know I could drop in an entire assy, like a two stage or something. But the current dingle stage is fine, just want it about 25% lighter. Done lots...

    XD Sub in 9mm or 40cal?

    I am considering this firearm for my "in the car gun." There are two used guns available to me, one in 9mm and one in 40cal. I don't want to start the never ending debate on the superior caliber.... Just want to know how snappy the 40cal will be. I have had several subs in 9mm and assume...

    The question is.... Will the Raging Bull be easy to handle as a range gun? Sorry for taking the long way to ask.

    Raging Bull Question...

    I have a chance to pick up a new Raging Bull blued with 6" barrel at a special sale my local dealer is having. This revolver has always been a temptation for me and with the price that is available I am thinking now is the time. But, even though I have had multiple SW revos in .38 special...

    Glock 34 Question

    Lasermax fits like a glove...... The lasermax unit on my G34 tucks up nicely to the trigger guard when secured in the indexing slot. Very easy to touch the controls with either index finger........;)

    Let's have a candid conversation about GLOCKs.

    I came back..... First off, this is the most civil thread I have ever read on the "Glock Debate" Well done members of THR!:) I have had several Glocks, 26, 19, 36 and traded them all. I appreciated all of the features mentioned by so many of you....but I lived with the same challenges of...

    XP100 Rifle Stock Question?

    I have a XP100 action with a custom bull barrel that is currently sitting in a Choate Sniper stock. I would like to get a more traditional bench stock but am not sure what inlet to start with. Can a 700 inlet be modified? Or the XR100 stock? Or do I just get a blank and have the gunsmith do...

    Question on AR Value?

    With the recent surge in activity in AR purchases....I was wondering what the safe queen that I have for plinking would be worth. I have a Bushmaster Carbon 15 AR in 9mm with two 30 round mags. This rifle is a flat top with adjustable sights and a rail for mounting goodies. In fact I have a...

    Load Testing.....a dumb question....

    Thanks, Gentlemen..... This helps. I figured it was going to be worth the trouble to sight in the scope, particularly to assure a consistent POA while testing. But once I get the load right.....back to the Redfields!

    Load Testing.....a dumb question....

    I a going to be testing some 280 Remington loads on a custom build Winchester 70 I recently purchased. This rifle has won competitions at 500+ yds with a skilled shooter (not me ;) however.) I will be using the rifle with Redfield sights rather than a scope. But I received a BSA Contender...
