Im in the market for a new 1911. I have no personal defense aspirations for this gun. It will be just a plinker and a ginny pig for when i start reloading .45acp. Im on a pretty strict budget of $1300. Im leaning real heavy toward the SA trp. I love the look and feel of the gun. Im very leary...

Hi folks, as the title states my m&p shield 40 trigger wont reset. The gun has never malfunctioned through hundreds of rounds and today i wad going to detail strip it and give it a good cleaning. However i got distracted by my honey do list. All I did was remove the take down lever and the...

Im curiouse as to who takes money or sentimental value into consideration when deciding on a defensive fire arm. Weather it be an hd gun or a ccw. Im asking this because most recently i am.

Hi all I purchaced an all black kahr p.380 today. Im new to the .380 round but im not new to kahr firearms. I have 4 and really like them all. I understand that kahr firearms come tight and require a break in. Some more so than others. I took it to the range with 200 hundred rounds of...

I have sent 500 rounds with out a single problem. Its a great little shooter. I understand its quiet a bit cheaper than the pm9. I know the extra machining and better barrel go into the pm9. Is there any difference in the frame? Mainly is there any more steel on the frame rails of the pm9 as...

Hey guys, I was wondering when you get a failure to fire, how can you tell if its gun or ammo trouble. I took my shield 9mm and put 100 rounds through it. This took the round count up to 400. The gun has never malfunctioned in any way. Half way through my third magazine I get a click...

Sigs have been following me home a lot lately. The latest model to follow me home was a sig p229 dark elite. This is sweetest handgun, I've ever shot. It was a pleasure to shoot. I bought it yesterday, and put 400 rounds through it today. This is the most accurate I've ever shot. Twenty one...

I have had a Liberty Centurion safe for three years, that has been trouble free. That is until today. It has manual dial lock on it. I had to enter the combination a dozen times or more before it would open. Thinking it was just a freak thing, I locked it back and tried to reopen it. It took...

I made my first bulk ammo purchace. It was 1000 rounds of 115gr Remington umc 9mm. Seemed like a good deal at 230 dollars at my local academy. Anyway onto my question. it came in a plastic bag inside a box. I was wondering if I should buy an ammo can like one of the surplus cans and just dump...

What are some of you that carry a sig p220 using? I tried a galco king tuc, which works really well for my compact Glocks. I also have another one that works well with my xd's. I've had no problem with them at all. The problem I have is once the gun is in the holster and I pull my belt tight...

Last Saturday I went to palmetto state armory with the intentions of buying an xdm.45. As I was waiting to be assisted I noticed a sig p220 extreme model. It had: the str, factory night sites, and the g10 grips. On a whim I asked the salesman to let me see it. I held it and immediately fell in...

What's your longest streak without a failure when it tomes to your semiautomatic pistols? Mine currently stands at 7000 rounds with my glock 27. I had a previous thread on here about my gen 4 glock 26 starting to have failures at the 400 round mark. It got me to wondering how long some of you...

I own quite a few Glocks and have never had trouble with any of them until this gen4 26. This 26 went through its first 400 rounds flawlessly. Now its stove piping out of all three mags. Ive only shot federal champion out of it. I haven't change my cleaning/lubing method. 400 rounds is not...

I feel pretty dumb having to ask because I'm not a newbie to firearms. However I'd rather be safe than sorry. My son and I were cleaning my sub compact glocks, a gen3 27 and a gen 4 26. We went to reassemble the fire arms and I realized that I may have had a mix up with the recoil springs...

I've come seeking knowledge from my fellow high roaders. I was at my local Walmart today buying ammo, when on a whim I decided to look at a mossberg 930. I've been wanting an auto loading shot gun for a while now. It will be for hd and just plinking. The price on it was 399$. I fondled it a...

So I bought an xds yesterday and took it out today. It was fresh out of the box. I shot 250 rounds of ammo through it. The ammo I was using was Federal Champion, Tula, and Hornady Tap. Out of the 250 rounds I shot I has 7 failures to fire. I had 5 with the Tula and 2 with the Federal Champion...

The following three minute video discusses the UN's firearm treaty and how Obama will likely send it to the senate seeking the 2/3rd's vote. I know this has been going on for a few years now but do you guys think this will gain traction and severely limit our 2A rights? Do you guys think this...

Over the last few weeks I've been considering getting a larger edc knife. I've been carrying a benchmade griptillian for a long time now, and I love it but but just wanted something larger. I not only wanted to find something larger I wanted something with better ergos. I wasn't in a hurry to...
