    Tell me why I should or should not buy a S&W 6946..... please.

    So then, here's the deal. Very good condition. Lots of magazines. Can't tell whether or not it is a Police trade-in. Price is essentially immaterial on this particular transaction. What other guns may be better or worse is also immaterial to my looking at this one. I'd really like input on...

    So now, you have a 4" 629 and a 6" 629 and.....

    you are inclined to loan one to your brother for a rather indefinite amount of time.... you know how brothers can be. Which one do you let the short-sighted, caught flat-footed, didn't get his own-damn-gun in time bum borrow? I'm leaning towards keeping the 4" as in-hand and relegate the 6" to...

    A surprised new owner of a Kimber Micro-9.

    Several thumbs-up to this little beast. Shot it today and it was all-joy. None of the different rounds would cause a stumble. Accuracy was well beyond expectations. Recoil is barely worth talking about. I've shot much worse *Makarovs* and a couple worse .380s as well. Operation is...

    Another *extreme cheap* purchase over-returns on investment.

    I picked this up last week for some 60 smackers. I really bought it for the grip(s) but the pistol is so doggone good it has warranted an entire polish & re-blue as time allows. It says "Target" but that likely merely attaches to the thumb-rest gips and evolved front sight. Doesn't matter...

    Me; A S&W 469 -- You; A Second Gen compact magazine. I think we'd be a perfect fit!

    So, here's the deal. This 469 is feeling decidedly unfulfilled. All it would take is one good magazine... - maybe two - to complete her. She's not fussy about looks or color but is intent upon a lasting relationship based upon capacity and quality up-bringing. Can anyone help her out with a...

    A question about a couple *pro-gun* e-mails that I receive.

    I have recently begun receiving emails from; "National Gun Owner" and "Gun News USA". I have not opened any attachments or links and won't put them here for reference out of the same due-caution. I don't know what connection caused me to be getting these but am wondering about the legitimacy...

    Barn burner of a Phoenix gun show!

    Just did the Phoenix fairgrounds show this past weekend. A most outstanding turn of profit for me and I scored two excellent books and a Micro-9 all on the cheap as well. Couple of notes. Any ammo that was remotely reasonably priced seemed to get scooped up on Friday leaving sellers...

    Traded into a Kimber Micro 9. What next?

    My initial impressions with this little beat are all quite positive. Now, I'm left with two issues: Picking a CCW round. Also, I can't seem to find Micro-9 magazines from Kimber. Any insight as to magazines for these would be appreciated Picking a CCW holster. For the reliable round, I'm...

    Help to find Unertl scope cap?.... Buehler?..... Anyone?

    Already tried for a week in accessories. I recognize that there's more traffic here in rifles so I assume the powers will not shift this back to accessories. After searching about for some time, I find no-joy in trying to locate an eye-piece, threaded lens cover. If I have to, I'll buy the...

    Help to find Unertl scope cap?.... Buehler?..... Anyone?

    After searching about for some time, I find no-joy in trying to locate an eye-piece, threaded lens cover. If I have to, I'll buy the front and rear set though I don't need the front. Unertl 1.25", Varmint 12 power. I'll dance at your wedding! OK, what passes for dancing with a lenient...

    Looking for an old thread on a S&W 327 - maybe.

    A fella, some time back, had a thread going on what I think was an S&W 327. He was modifying it as a woods/work carry gun. Seems he spent a lot of time on a quad and had a chest rig for it among other modifications to the pistol. I'd sure appreciate it if someone could clue me in to that old...

    What's the most recent price anyone's seen a Mauser G41(M) sell for?

    I'd like to make a pass at this rifle but see very few archived, realized prices for them. I'm sort of left to come up with a number. Do any of you Mauserweirdos have input as to current value excluding the current gun-price-madness? Please assume the left side is equal to the right. Action's...

    One good knife.... and a folder.

    Some Pals and I have an annual tradition coming up and since we are all getting on in age (read: soft), a few years ago we began a practice of each guy being allowed to put one limiting condition per year on the outing. We're all former Army SF with a couple of misguided Former-Marines from...

    Trading shotshell primers equitably.....

    I just came into 1,500 shotshell primers at an estate sale but don't load shotshells. A pal has a passel of all primers available for trading. Given the state of things these days, what do most think the exchange rate for them ought to be agains both small pistol and small rifle primers...

    Gotta love a Woman gives you a stabby-cutty-stick for Valentines Day.

    If I have to be drawn into this fake, commercialized holiday, I can revel in the fact that my Gal gives me cool stuff&things. I don't know anything about this Gilbreath outfit but she knew I'd love the shape. Todd.

    Is the S&W Performance Center still up?

    I looked at the S&W site today to finally get a revolver in for a procedure and can't for the life of me find anything about the Performance Center other than pre-existing PC guns that are available. I don't care to get into what I want done as that will lead to distractions from the base...

    Taking advantage of advantages. FN 1900; A curious relic.

    Figure I'm in a position to go on a bit of a spree while the spreeing is good. First is this FN 1900. So, why this one? If one conjoins it with the Browning 1899 they represent John Browning's first successful semi-auto which is also to say; the first production pistol with a slide...

    "To the very best of wives!"A Rodgers & Randall dagger stagger.

    To crib from Tiberias in Kingdom of Heaven in his toast to Sybille. I hold off on noting birthday gifts until well-away from my birthday in a nod to cyber-security. It seems now to be a good time to boast about that gal who keeps me from being *that guy*.:evil: A benefit all of society shares...

    Shooting alone in the desert, woods, wherever.

    Aside from the obvious responses (please try to not be obvious) regarding the safety, responsibility or intelligence of shooting by one's self on public land - I thought it would be worthwhile to post this up should it be news to anyone else. In was talking to an L.E. type this week about...
