    Evil Bite

    So I went & bought a nice little Browning 10/71 ? At any rate it`s a 380 . And it`s mean! The short non target model, Not only do you get a nice "snap" of recoil,you need to squeeze the grip safety until the veins in your arm show! Now that is a unique experience. Something like firing the...

    P08 Question

    Hi all , One quick question. I own a DWM 1916 P08 .Did the factory ever install a sear safety? I have one on my pistol. It`s beautifully made . Did some of these guns find service non military uses? It seems the gun is much safer with this safety feature
