Who here has heard this statement while you were going about your normal activities?

I use Greg Kramer's pocket holster for my M638. http://www.kramerleather.com/

Aux, Congratulations! I think that you got a good deal. They aren't making any more of the Pre-Internal-Lock Models, so NIB examples will be harder to find.

I like the S&W Bodyguard Airweight, Model 638 or 38. The Airweight Bodyguard weighs 14 ounces, has a shrouded hammer - to prevent snagging on the draw, and can still be cocked for a single-action shot, rotation-check, or emergency. I would look for an older Bodyguard. without the...

Well, I'm not too far off the norm. I like to get the guns really clean, especially the carry and home defense guns. If the gun will be fired again within a couple of weeks, I'll do a "quick clean" - bore, chamber / cylinder, lube, and wipe it down..... This can be done in about 15...

If I bring three handguns to the range, and shoot for 1.5 hours, I can spend 3 hours cleaning the guns. What is your ratio: Time shooting your guns vs. time cleaning your guns?

One thing that hasn't been mentioned, is the potential for over-penetration with the .357 Magnum round. If you live on a ranch, with no family and no close neighbors, this over-penetration issue may not effect you. For those of us who have family and neighbors, the over-penetration issue...

What do you consider to be "Light Arms" and "Small Arms"? I saw this piece while doing some research: __________________________________________________________ http://www.rand.org/hot/op-eds/030101JIR.html There is no precise, formal definition for light arms. However, for the...

In the S&W Model 66 or M638, I use the 158 grain, .38 Special +P, Lead Semi-Wadcutter Hollow-Point (LSWCHP).

Hello Rogelio, I don't know the brand of revolvers shown in your photos, but if I were limited to one of those, I would inspect the revolvers (new or used) in accordance with Jim March's excellent revolver check list: http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=57816...

Hello Zach, Was your Kimber cocked and un-locked, or did you hit the safety as you were making the catch?

HK SP89

G36, but much more often it's the S&W Model 638.

Was it a "CLICK" instead of a "BANG"? Was it a "BANG" instead of a "CLICK"? Was it a .357 Magnum instead of a .38 Special? Did your gun come apart due to an overchage? What was your biggest surprise?

An older S&W Bodyguard, preferably an Airweight, Model 638 or 38. If you want all-steel, a Model 649 or 49.

Originally posted by ChristopherG What if you are holding the bad guy at gunpoint, and he will not comply with your commands? You aren't justified in shooting, unless he becomes an imminent threat. If he gets his hand on your gun, he can stop the cylinder from rotating. With the hammer...

I consider the ProMags to be in the low end of the quality range, just one notch above USA Magazines!

Mine has ".38 S&W Special +P" stamped on the barrel. Earlier ones (before 1997?) did not.

I would keep my tuned, Series 80, Combat Commander. Reasons: I shoot this gun better than any other centerfire, semi-auto, handgun. It's 100% reliable with factory hollowpoints and Wilson 7-round magazines. Never needed major parts, but they're available from many sources.

If you are not an LEO, and you can carry either open or concealed, how do you carry most often? At times when you are not hunting, fishing, hiking, or camping, what advantages do you see in open carry vs. concealed carry?
