Been pondering the Model 19 for awhile now, and am ready to buy once the right one comes along, if only I can get past a concern. I've read several times that the Model 19 can develop issues if too many magnum rounds are shot through it. As such, should I be overly concerned about what previous...

I leave my guns at home and wear a pocketknife that clips onto my waistband when I run.

Thanks all. Going to clean it, and I might as well order a Wolff magazine spring as well.

Had a malfunction with a Glock 23 I haven't seen before in a semi-auto (only been shooting semi's for maybe 2 years though). After firing, the spent casing ejected properly but the next round went nose up and prevented the slide from fully returning to battery, being wedged upright between the...

Very interesting you should say this in response to an article written by a black feminist. Feminism has long argued that patriarchy is exhibited through cultural values, one of which is the valuing of logic and reason over emotion, with women being associated with emotion and men with reason...

I feel as if I understand and agree with some of what Mr. Metcalf wanted to say, and perhaps he didn't do it exactly as I would have liked. I'm no writer and am not very eloquent, and if he can't do it I probably can't either. But here goes... We, the gun community, feel threatened. And...

I have a p11 but no longer carry it and will likely sell it. I bought it around Feb 2012 and had two extractors break and the trigger bar spring slipped out and the gun couldn't work again without a detail strip. It also had a lot of trouble feeding ammo, especially hollow point, and this was...

It's weird, I saw those pictures and instantly got a strong sensation of smelling leather. Very nice btw...

The DOW closed at 2516 on October 22, 1990. It closed at 15392 October 21, 2013. This is an increase of 611%. So if you had invested in one of any number of low cost, weighted ETFs with that $75 back in 1990, you would have $458.25 to withdraw today. You could buy an SKS at today's prices with...

I heard a story from a friend that I found pretty interesting and figured some of yall would too. Perhaps a debate about how his partner should have reacted could be had. When a rookie cop, my friend and his partner responded to a domestic dispute. They walked up to the house and knocked. A man...

Getting anyone at Walmart to answer the phone has always been impossible for me to do.

Wow, I did the exact same thing but with a m9 for a 23, and for the exact same reason too. I loved that m9 with all my heart (it was my first quality firearm), but my Glock 23 is much more practical and useful to me. All I put on was night sights, and I now shoot about 3" high at 10 yards...

Great shooting by the gun and the shooter. Gun looks real nice too; never seen one before that I remember but has a neat bolt handle and nice wood.

OP here. Honestly, milsurps and what not didn't even cross my mind when making this post. They fit well enough though.

What firearms regularly manufactured and sold today do you think will become highly sought after collectibles sometime in the future? This may require some prescience unavailable to us mere mortals, as the guns may increase wildly in value only if production stops. My guess is AR-15s, but...

Responding to OP, I started with a Kel Tec p11, went to a Glock 23, and have been settled on a S&W Airweight for about 6 mo now. I have no problems with recoil even using +P, good sight picture, and the gun basically disappears - I don't even notice it's there when I'm carrying. Don't overlook...

Fooled you! Still like Smiths, but my first Colt has got me pretty excited. Only $150 for a pretty little gun that doesn't shoot (or that I'm too scared to shoot) as the timing seems to be off. But I'm going to see a gunsmith - I'd be willing to put in another $150 or so if it'll make it run...

Apologies if this is a double post, but a search didn't pull anything up. It appears there is a recall on all S&W M&P Shields manufactured before August 19, 2013. http://www.hyattguns.com/news/shieldrecall.pdf

I have a Glock 23 and love it. Same dimensions as Glock 19, so just as concealable, but a bit more kick from the .40 caliber ammo. My suggestion: Go to your gun/outdoors store and look for 9mm ammo, both target and defensive. Then search for .40 s&w ammo, both target and defensive. My guess is...

Thanks everyone for the responses. I feel blessed to have inherited this sword but just wasn't sure what to do with it. I have been more of a gun guy than a knife/sword guy. Some interesting ideas on how to mount or show it. Still not sure exactly what I'm going to do but I'll probably update...
