    Got the itch for something new.

    Pretty much have had a sample of everything the major mfg. have to offer but I'm thinking of something different. Never had a H&K or an FN, other than my High Power. Don't want anything striker fired, strictly hammer fired DA/SA. What do my fellow forum members recommend. ;)

    Barrel/cylinder gap

    Just out of curiosity I checked the gap of my revolvers. Always set my Dan Wesson at .004 thousands which works great, but my fixed barrel guns are as follows: 1978 Colt Python (My most accurate revolver) .006 Colt King Cobra Target .004 2022 Colt...

    Switch blades

    The wonderful land of stinken has recently legalized automatic knives for those with a valid F.O.I.D. Always had a fascination with OTF's so I bought a Benchmade Infidel, a bit of a disappointment as the blade won't fully extend if it comes in contact with something on the way out. Fell in love...

    Anaconda in 45 Colt?

    I really want one. :rofl:

    .380 dies

    Can .357/38Special dies be used to load .380, if not how about 38Super dies?

    Member consensus on Taurus

    Just saw the cover of guns & ammo with a new Taurus revolver. Never shot one or known anyone who has owned one. Always heard it was a brand to steer clear of because of quality problems and bad customer service. Just curious. :scrutiny:

    4.25" revolvers

    Why have 4" barreled revolvers suddenly become 4.25" and when will they start making holsters for them? :confused:

    Why I gave up on red dot sights.

    Wanting to experience the latest and greatest I purchased a Sig P365XL with the Romeo zero sight. Couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it in the beginning, kept practicing and eventually got better. Then I realized it was affecting the way I shoot all my other iron sight handguns. Took it...

    What's the most accurate 9mm?

    I've owned quite a few over the years, Berreta's, HP's, Sig's but the most accurate, for me, is the CZ 85 Combat. :)

    Python observation

    Took my new 6" Python along with my old 6" to the range the other day. I was shooting .358 dia. 158gr Missouri bullet lead SWC's on top of 4.0gr. of HP-38. Results from Labradar. New revolver yielded: Stats - Average 856.3 fps Stats - Highest 884.52 fps Stats - Lowest 825.94 fps Stats - Ext...

    Who makes a holster for the new 4.25" Cobra target?

    Title says it all. Can't believe Galco only accommodates the older 4" models.

    Min velocity for a 125gr. XTP to expand.

    Always been a 45ACP guy when it comes to home defense on onaconda big & slow is the way to go, won't blind me in the dark or blow out my eardrums. ;) Mostly out of curiosity I'm wondering at what velocity a Hornady 357 125gr. XTP will start to expand?

    Snakes ahoy!

    Took my new 6" Python to the range yesterday morning along with my 2" cobra snubby and the 4 1/4" King cobra target. The new Python is quite accurate in both single and double action but my old 1978 Python is more accurate in single action, of course 44 years of shooting may have something to do...

    Sig P320 self shooters

    Just read about 3 cases out east where police are suing Sig because their dept. issued Sigs went off on their own. Anyone know the details or how this could happen? Police officers sue gun maker for faulty weapon: report | The Hill

    What's your favorite 45 Colt target load?

    For me it's 7.5gr. of Universal under a 255gr. lead SWC, what's yours? Forgot to add I'm shooting them out of a 625 Smith mountain gun. Sure wish Colt would bring out the new Anaconda in .45 Colt, just onaconda.:)

    Expanding my 38Super handloads.

    Been into the Super for some time now and have pretty much settled on using Titegroup for my target loads. 5.2gr. under a 115gr Hap yields 1250 fps. out of my PM38 and 1220 out of the Guardian. Most impressive has been 10.0gr of VV N105 under a 124gr. XTP which gives 1400fps out of the PM-38 and...

    Oh NO! not the infamous idiot scratch.

    Yup I got one, try as I might to always be careful my hand slipped. :eek:

    1911 trigger pull.

    What do you consider the perfect trigger pull weight for a 1911. I'm guessing that my two DW commanders are somewhere between 4 and 5 lbs. which seems perfect for a carry piece. On the other hand all of my target pistols are around 3 to 4lbs. My 45 year old series 70 Colt Gold Cup has, after all...

    Favorite .357 target load

    Right now I'm mostly shooting Missouri bullet co. 158gr lead SWC, 's on top of 3.8.4.0 grains of HP-38. Very accurate, mild and fun to shoot load. :)

    Whatever happened to the new Bren ten.

    Haven't seen anything on this in a while so I thought I'd revisit it.:)
