While there's a wealth of information out there on the different magazines available for the Sig P220, no source has yielded an exhaustive head to head comparison on reliability of 7 rounders vs. 8 rounders and aftermarket vs. factory. I'm going to buy some extra mags here soon and I was...

I'm considering for Christmas asking Santa to get me some badly needed aftermarket sights for a 2nd generation Glock 19 and possibly an XD45. I need to do some more checking but someone quoted me a ridiculous price on installation by the local (basically I'd pay as much for the install as I...

Yes I know, there are already many PF-9 threads, and I've read them. I've determined that while there are some drawbacks to contend with, this product addresses a niche need I have, so I've decided to go tell my local mom and pop gun shop to call me the instant a hard chromed model comes in. I...

I may, if things go well, be getting a job where I can legally carry on the job, but I would be required to have a tucked in polo shirt. I find IWB carry more stable and comfortable than pocket carry, although pocket carry is certainly easier and I will explore options there too. But I'm...

I'm trying to gather information, in addition to my own, for prospective revolver purchaser who is looking at two models at a store. The seller, whom I know well, can be talked down to $300 for either one so the price is the same. Candidate #1 is a Ruger SP101, 2" barrel, .357 Magnum...

So I found someone willing to trade me a 20" upper for the 14.5" upper in my possession I don't really have a use for. Anyway we have worked out the terms in advance to our mutual agreement. I just need to find someone to take my money and ship it. I went to a local UPS store and bought the...

I'm curious if anyone can point out to me any fairly detailed descriptions of non-victimless crimes committed with an NFA weapon or any select fire weapon or other "naughty" weapon in general. By victimless crime, I mean mere possession or bad paperwork being filed or something like that...

The screw on my front sight on my fixed sight 22/45 seems to love to work itself loose after 300 rounds of shooting. It slowly unscrews itself about 1/4 of a turn every magazine after the barrel gets heated up. I've tried to use blue Loctite to keep the screw from backing out, but no dice...

Okay there's some threads here and there which sort of address this, but I'm trying to argue an important point with someone who is worth arguing with. I want to show how the the various so called "assault weapons":rolleyes: bans are only about aesthetics and not what the gun itself is...

I've been poking around and noticed Impact Guns is accepting orders for a Beretta Neos carbine kit, which is out of stock. I take that to mean it's for real and going to happen. I've been keeping an eye out for this. I've really wanted a .22 with those kind of ergonomics strictly for grins...

I won't list them all, but I was born in the 80s and I own less guns than I am old. That's about as specific as I care to be on the internet. Now I realize that I am fortunate enough to have more than some people have, but five of them are sentimental heirlooms, four are rimfires, and most...

Hello Highroaders, especially Texans in the South of Austin/North of San Antonio area and around thereabouts. I don't feel comfortable giving my precise location on the internet, but let's say I live a short distance north of Austin and my sister now lives in northwest San Antonio. She's...

My question comes from the frame of reference from owning two AR15s. I have noticed something that doesn't really effect how well the rifle functions per se, just how it "handles" and "feels", which are very subjective things. It seems to me that when you've an AR15, unless you spend the $$$...

Pure curiousity fuels this question because I saw something kind of like a pink elephant the other day: you know what you saw, but you sure don't understand it. I was in my local merchant of death scavenging for the next bargain when I found a very clean and neat Taurus model 85, stainless...

Does there exist a conversion barrel to shoot .40 S&W out of a Smith and Wesson 1006? It seems feasible. Curiousity abounds. I'm not interested in debating catridges, I'm just curious if it's technically possible.

I will soon be the proud new owner of a genuine USGI M1 Carbine. I was wondering though, where can I get genuine USGI mags for a genuine USGI gun?:confused: And what's a good price to pay? I understand it all depends on condition but I need a ballpark if you can give me one. Don't want...

Anyone know when these should be more available? I'd love to get some more than the 2 that came with the gun!

Hello all. I've recently inherited a Ruger P85. It's not my first choice in a defensive handgun, but seeing as how I will never sell it, I am going to invest in some accessories for it. The pistol has three of the original 15 round capacity magazines. I've owned a P89 in the past before...

I'm the otherwise happy new owner of a GP100 today but I've noticed one tiny little thing that's bothering me. The gun, when rocked back and forth like a baby, rattles ever so slightly. I followed manual and it seems everything is in good order in there, nothing's loose. My first thought...

I figure this technically would be a "Rifle" Thread even though it's really handgun centric. Of course the mods can move it.:) I'm a fan of the XD40. I'm aware of commercial uppers that fit 1911s and Glocks that convert your pistol into a pistol caliber carbine. I'm also aware of things...
