Wondering if there are any other hammer-fired DAO pistol other than the Sig p250. It doesn't have to be "cocked" to shoot like the S&W DAOs do (I have a 3953, 6946, and 4046 and all have to have the hammer back to fire and THAT ain't no way to carry as it negates the long and somewhat heavier...

A gaggle of Glocks? All that plastic and not one wooden stock? Green and yellow; purple and brown...so which one is the jewel in the crown? Wow! Looks like my spread of S&Ws. Nice bunch-a-guns.

I've got a bunch of pretty good hammer-fired pistols (and revolvers) as I sort of "accumulate/collect." But there are far fewer striker-fired ones in the safe. In 9 there's a worked-on Sig P230 compact and a 9mm S&W/Walther/Magnum Research 99; Shield 2.0 45 PC; a P320 SC in .40; and a...

Need a bunch a bullets: 9mm, 38 sp., .40, .45 and maybe some .38s&w. Mostly range fodder but a couple of boxes of self-defense stuff as well. (Oops, I mean cartridges, whole bullets, projectile, powder, primer, and case all put together and nicely packaged. Didn't mean just the "bullet.")...

Many thanks to all who commented. I did a bit of deep cleaning on the recently acquirewd gunbroker S&W 36 and put in Wilson Combat hammer spring and 14 lb. return spring and it's like I got a new gun! What a difference. I'll be looking for a 2" S&W model 10 type (six rounds) and will be...

I've got a couple of J-frame Smiths -- 642PC; older model 36; and a 638-3 on the way. Plus a 38/22 Terrier. But I'm wondering who besides Smith and Colt makes J-frame-size .38 specials that are reliable enough for concealed carry; have good-to-very good triggers esp. in double action; and...

Okay, please just indulge my rant. Am looking through Gunbroken and I'm noticing what looks like a trend: rising shipping costs. I can see $20 and $25, 30 and even $35. At $40 I start to balk and at $50 or even one (Hauges?) is saying $75 to ship I'm through. Business must be good to...

I've only seen pics of this pistol but I really like it's looks plus it's the right size for my needs, frame-mounted safety, all metal, based on CZ75, well-regarded maker, There don't seem to be too many of them around and I'm wondering if anyone knows if Tanfoglio made any similar models...

So my current beside pistol is a .40 S&W 4006TSW CHP with a light. Perfectl;y fine and more than adequate for the job. But I was thinking about a bigger bullet (at less velocity) instead. My choices: Sig P220 after a bit of trigger work and night sights by Sig Beretta PX4 full size with...

Had one, liked it but traded a it for something "better';" regretted getting rid of it ever since. However, just bought a SP2340 -- same gun in .40S&W. When it comes back from the Sig rehab deal (!150 for cleaning, new springs, etc. and set of Sig Night sights) I'll have it out to the range...

Been sorta looking at the Walther PK380 and see the usual "I Luv Em" and "I Hate Em" posts. I can live with needing a tool for takedown; Galloway Pecision has a low-cost fix for getting the recoil rod and spring back into the gun easily; and the one I'm looking at is relatively inexpensive...

Many thanks to all who posted. It's much appreciated. I decided to pass on the Shield in .40. Did a bit of swapping around with some Sigs parts and now I have a .40 Sig P250 in subcompact and I scrounged enough to "create" a P320 subcompact in 40 as well. Added to the 226 and a 2340 (too...

I'm thinking of another .40 to add to my carry rotation. I have a SW99 compact in .40 but would like another so.... I'm thinking of a S&W Shield M1 in 40 that a fella is asking $300 including a CrimsonTrace laser and decent holster (have the Shield EZs in 9 and 380) but am wondering what...

I have a very slick 9mm Beretta PX4 Compact (Langdon slicked it up). I want to go to .40 and understand all I need to do it is put on .40 slide, barrel, recoil spring and use 40 mags. I have all the necessary pieces but they are for a FULL SIZE PX4, not the compact like I have. The mags stick...

Many, many thanks to all who helped answer my question. It's much appreciated. I've got a PX4 in 45 and am tempted to have it converted to DAO and I'm on the hunt for a 250 in that caliber and I could have a 220 in .45 also converted. I'll price the conversions out and keep hunting for a...

I'm thinking of a non-striker-fired DAO .45 to go with my DAO 9s (S&W 3953 and 6946, Sig 250) and DAO .40s (Smith 4046 and Sig 250) and I'm wondering who besides Sig and Smith & Wesson makes 'em. I'm pretty partial to S&W and the Sig has about the smoothest DAO trigger I've ever shot. But, I...

Let's say you want to carry a .380. Which one would you choose: S&W .380 EZ Walther CCP M2 Beretta 85F/Cheetah The EZ is SA only with both manual and grip safety. The CCP is striker-fired and has "innovative" gas-delayed blowback system to lessen recoil. (It is the same size as the EZ.)...

As of 12:37 pm Pacific time on 2/16/23 Gunbroker seems broken. Anyone else having a problem with it. (Sorta wish it would stay busted, I'd save a fortune.)

I've got a lovely, 9mm Sig 320 with a Wilson Combat grip, Sig nite sights, and flat trigger. I'd like to carry it but the trigger goes Bang! at 4 1/2 pounds and there's no manual safety. Seems a tad too light for me (I had Sig do trigger work when I sent it back for their "fix-up) and so it...

I've got 3 and none are "pure" Walthers. The 9mm is a full-size Magnum Research (same type of Walther deal S&W did) and the two 40s -- full and compact-- are S&W/Walther combos (frame by Walther, slide and barrel by Smith). I carry the compact .40 more than anything else. The triggers on all...
