Does anyone have hands on experience with the Sig DAK trigger as well as the KAHR double action trigger. I'd like to get some comparisons on trigger weight and length of pull. I find the Kahr trigger very smooth but long, almost too long. Weighting is fine though. Sig P239 DA/SA is...

I have a very stupid question. I check my cartridges through a cartridge guage. All the videos i've seen the cartridge does not pass through the guage completely. Mine will if I give the round a little push. Is this a problem? :( I have not run into any issues to date firing my...

Why can't any of the gun manufacturers make a pocket size or slightly larger gun with the following features: 9mm Single stack Polymer frame NO SAFETIES NO DAO long traveling heavy trigger pull Striker fired This would be my ideal carry pistol. So far the only thing I have found...

Ok I really wanted to get the Nano but after reading all the bad reviews, I was still tempted based on its size and comments regarding its accuracy and low recoil. However, the icing on the cake for me was when I finally saw with my own eyes a copy of an email from Beretta indicating the...

I'm looking for either a Nano or Shield to replace my G26, provided I can find either one. I've read reports of the Nano's DAO trigger pull ranging from 5.75 lbs to over 9 lbs so I'm wondering if anyone that has experience with the Nano if they could shed some light on the trigger pull and...

I'm looking for everyone's opinions and experience with the Glock G36. I've read a couple of threads indicating issues with the gun so I'd like some more overall feedback. I am intrigued by the single stack design and overall slimness Also i've been searching for info and peoples experience...

Well finally took my new Walther PPK to the range. I went through 50 rounds (that is all I had :cuss:) of Speer Lawman 95gr FMJ. I was surprised at how well the Walther shot. From what I read I was expecting a pretty strong recoil, however it was very controllable and didn't kick hard at...

Can anyone recommend a gunsmith to do a bobtail conversion on a Colt Commander stainless 1991? I'm in AZ and would like to stay local if possible, but if not I can mail it away. I would prefer recommendations that you had firsthand experience with if at all possible. I love the look of...

I don't have much knowledge in terms of rifles and calibers and was wondering what would be considered the best all around choice under the following parameters: 1. Ease of use 2. Availability and cost of ammo 3. Usefulness for SHTF zombie defense and general hunting I already have a...

Would someone please let me know if it is permissible to keep an unloaded handgun in your car (i.e. glove compartment in a holster) is you do not have a carry permit in the state of California. I will be traveling there soon and would like to at least keep a handgun in the car. While...

I am having a hard time settling on a platform for my daily carry. I see pros and cons with each platform and have read arguments for each. The platforms being DAO (Glock), DA/SA (Sig) and SA (1911). I've carried each of these and like all of them. But I can also think of disadvantages for each...

I've been considering getting a rifle to add to the home defense package. I don't know much about rifles and calibers so I'm looking for some guideance and recommendations. I'm leery of getting a shotgun in that I had reconstructive shoulder surgery a few years back and I'm afraid of leaving...

I'm considering getting rid of my Kimber Pro Carry II in favor of a Sig P220 Carry SAO. Does this seem like an equitable trade? Thoughts?

I just ordered my reloading bench and finally found some components in stock. I want to start reloading .45acp and this is what my components will consist of: Federal American Eagle Brass Winchester LP Primer Alliant Bullseye Powder Rainer 230grn plated RN bullets I found 5 different...

Interested in people's choice for a holster on a 1911 commander (4.25" barrel) and where they carry. I'm getting the bug again. I don't know what it is, but everytime I get a 1911I find reasons why its not worth it. Then after I get rid of them, I wish I hadn't :banghead: I miss my Colt...

I would like to purchase an old style (wild west type) looking revolver, but am wondering if any models are made in SA/DA and if so what brands and model names should I be looking for. I would like something with less than a 6" barrel, but it seems everything I find is SA only and the ones that...

Can you shoot 22lr out of a 22mag revolver? Are the rounds the same size, just the 22lr has less powder? :( Would there be any side effects of doing this, or is it like shooting 38sp out of a 357? Thanks

I need a good recommendation for a small SD revolver for my wife. It will be primarily carried in purse or in a safe at home. Due to the purse carry, I'm thinking hammerless or possibly shrouded. I also feel 2" is the max as it needs to be small as well as lightweight. Here is my biggest...

Can anyone recommend a gunsmith in the Phoenix \ Scottsdale area. I know that Scottsdale Gun Club lists having a gunsmith, so I wonder if anyone has actually used them and what their experience was. Thanks

I just picked up my new Colt 1911 Commander and noticed that I can't fully engage the magazines unless I slam them in. I haven't had this problem with any of the other 1911's I've had (including my Colt Government model). Have others run into this? Is this something that is considered...
