    Light for No Rail Glock 48 Black

    Posting this here as this forum gets more traffic than the Accessories forum. Is the Streamlight 69280 TLR 6 the only light available for the no rail Glock 48 Black? I see a few for the Glock 48 MOS but the Streamlight appears to be the only option for the 48 Black.

    Can’t believe my luck!

    Wife visiting her sister this weekend and coming back today. She sent me this photo earlier and said her sister has had it in her closet for at least 30 years, doesn’t know where it came from, and wondered if I would like to have it. I was shocked as good fortune rarely smiles on me. No dash...

    First time in five years that I attended a gun show where...

    I actually bought a firearm. A S&W Shield in .30 Super Carry. Passed on a pristine S&W Model 19 (one of my grail guns) for $1100. Came across the .30 Super Carry a few minutes later. I have a .380 EZ which I really like and have read the reviews, both pro and con, on the new model and decided to...

    Interesting observation concerning ammo today

    New to me Star BM 9mm

    Picked up a Star BM 9mm from J&G Sales. Ordered on Monday May 31st and in my hand Friday June 4th. $350 with shipping and extra magazine. Have several milsup firearms but never considered a Star until a few months ago. Looks much better than I thought it would with the barrel showing a little...

    S333 Thunderstruck Gen 2

    From the Firearmblog: 'The two main differences of the Standard Manufacturing S333 Thunderstruck Gen 2 revolver over the first generation gun are the improved trigger pull and the longer barrels that protrude from the frame of the Gen 2 revolver. The longer barrels will of course slightly...

    Kel Tec P50 5.7 x 28 With 50 Round Magazine

    https://www.keltecweapons.com/firearms/pistols/p50/ Like many Kel Tec offerings I find this concept interesting. It's heavy, 3.2 pounds empty, will accept FN P90 magazines and expensive, $1000, but I'm going to wager demand will outweigh the initial supply which is typical Kel Tec. Not that you...

    Your best shot with a handgun intentional or not

    So what’s your best shot with a handgun? I’m talking about one where you scratched your head and said “did I really do that”? For someone like myself that has been shooting handguns for 50+ I have only one that stands out and it was strictly unintentional. When I first got married I was...

    Budget Optic for 9mm PC Carbine

    Have a new Ruger 9 mm PC Carbine for the range and looking for a red dot, halo or reflex under $100 . Have a $50 CV Life 2.5 on my KelTec Sub 2000 which is okay for plinking and wouldn't hesitate to buy another but looking for something not as bulky and co-witness capable but that's not a deal...

    A Shout Out to Bud's Guns and UPS

    With a semi self imposed quarantine (68 with kidney disease) and retired I have a lot of time on my hands. I was looking at a $299 C&R SKS but with all the additional fees and tax it came to over $400 so I passed. Looking at Bud's website I saw a Ruger 9 mm PC Carbine for $499. Free Shipping...

    Have we discussed the new double barrel .22 WMR pistol?

    If so I apologize. I like the .22 Magnum round and innovative firearms buuttttt...I don't know about this. 8 Shot magazine = 4 2 shot volleys. Would like to shoot one for sure but it takes two fingers (recommended) on the trigger to operate. Thoughts...

    Got a call from my LGS yesterday

    Saying they got something in that I might be interested in. Oh yeah, a stainless Service Six in .357 magnum. Put it in lay away jail until next month. Pristine. No turn ring or holster wear. Original grips and one set of Pachmayr grips, original case, paperwork and Ruger soft case. I feel at...

    S&W Model 57-1 .41 Magnum

    Have had and have several S&W's but never had a Model 57. Found the price agreeable, maybe a little on the high side, but I've always wanted one so there's that. 1 owner, no holster wear, barely noticeable turn ring, 1981 Manufacture date, barrel is pristine as are the grips. Going to order...

    Value of S&W 6" Nickle 586 no dash

    I was offered $650 for this pistol which I think is a little on the low side. Or is it? On line prices are anywhere from $600 to over a $1000 so I'm kinda stumped. I bought it used about 15 years ago and probably shot less than 200 rounds through it since then. Excellent condition with a barely...

    On the fence about buying this

    Model 29 S&W. $800 plus tax. Some very minor holster wear and noticeable turn ring. Locks up nice and tight. Doesn't rattle. I would say mid 90's manufacture date. My dilemma is this. I have a 629 stainless and have been looking for a blue steel Model 29 for awhile now. The person selling me...
