With all the 9mm vs 45ACP, 9mm vs 357SIG, 357SIG vs 40S&W threads going, I wonder what is the actual preference for caliber. Unexpanded, 45 cuts the biggest hole, 9mm and 357 are likely to give the most penetration. And don't even get me started on energy numbers on paper. I definately don't...

Well, I'd been wanting to get one for a long time (think 15 years or so...) and the Assault Machete thread prompted me to do so. I looked over the Himalayan-Imports website and though they are beautiful and no doub of better quality than this one, I just couldn't justify the $100+ cost of most...

If through some amazing force, 200 Gr Gold Dots and 200 Gr Ranger Ts were widely available to all and affordable in 45GAP, and practice ammo cost the same as 45ACP, would you buy a CZ PCR or P-01 chambered in 45GAP? Probably be 10 + 1 rounds with the same grip size? I'm just trying to see if...

What type of sights do you prefer on a CCW type (non-duty) carry gun?

Feeling the need for another 1911... Anyone have one of the Kimber 'Compact' models with the Commander-sized slide and the Officer sized frame? Also considering a Colt CCO (or COO... I forget) or a Springfield Compact but haven't seen any of those on shelves for quite some time. Also noticed...

I picked up the current Combat Handguns with the article on the CZ P01... they said that 124 Gr +P Gold Dots wouldn't even fit in the chamber because they were overly long??? Said they locked the gun up solid about 1/4" from full battery. I have noticed they are quite a bit longer than 115...

Anyone using the XS Big Dot tritium sights? I'm thinking of one on a CZ as a carry gun... I'd want to keep the factory rear sight but am a big believer on concentrating on that front sight. I've used Mepros and Trijicons but never the XS... Are they that much bigger? Keep in mind, this will not...

For those of you that daily carry a gun chambered in 40S&W, what bullet weight do you currently rely on? Doesn't matter if it is issue ammo or just whatever you prefer. Feel free to post specifics... Assuming you can carry whatever ammo you'd like, did you base your decision on 'cited...

Went to the Indy gunshow this weekend looking for something like a Model 60 or 65 Lady Smith :uhoh: or something like a 3" or 4" 19 or 28 but after looking over the entire show, ended up getting a SIG 229. Someone had polished the slide and it was pretty dirty but I got the gun with three...

Saw a preview for this movie... similar to Phonebooth but she is shackled to a hot dog stand and must feed folks while she talks on her cell phone. Linda Fiorentino in place of Colin Farrell and Wesley Snipes in place of Keifer Southerland. Seems Snipes' child was killed by a gun made by...

I like to post this one some board every year or so, so hear goes... If you are either a LEO (or somehow related) or know for sure what a particular agency issues, please post it here. I'm more interested in the cartridges issued rather than the gun itself (though feel free to say what gun as...

I was using the ole Search button ( :what: )to look at some kahr-related posts and I saw at least two references to the 124 +P Gold Dots not being reliable with Kahrs... I was wondering if everyone that has put a significant number of 124 Gr +P Gold Dots through their Kahrs might chime in and...

I was just wondering... anyone that has bought a firearm since Nov 1... were you delayed on your NICS check? Nothing at all changed between the a small carry-type handgun I bought in March of last year through the small carry-type handgun I bought in December but I was delayed two days in...

In the spirit of Kahr Carrier's "Last handgun purchase of 2003" thread, what do you plan on being the first handgun purchase of the new year? And if you wish to elaborate into what few guns you have a clear plan on buying this year, feel free. :p I'll go first... The first handgun I...

Here's a comparison I posted over on CandlePowerForums. I had asked about a smallish but extremely bright Krypton light that cost less than the $90 Elektrolumens Blaster VI and the two that were most recommended were the Princeton Tec Surge and the Pelican M6. As an aside, the Surge is a quality...

Got a Winchester 1000x high powered air rifle today. 1000 fps or so the box claims. It weighs 7.4 lbs with the scope and rings so it's not a lightweight by any means and has every bit a full size stock. It is manufactured by Daisy for Winchester and bears both names on the receiver. My 1 minute...

I can't believe this has never come up for me... but can I sell one of my own rifles to a resident of another state face to face? Privately, no FFL? I live in Indiana and an Ohio resident has expressed an interest.

Anyone handle or shoot the new T3 rifles yet? Looks like they're available in 6.5x55 which I've been looking for in a Tikka. I could special order one but none of the local shops have the T3 in yet. Similarities to the 595/695? Anything worse? I know the single action size turns some folks...
