    Is a SA Blackhawk right for me?

    That's the only justification you need. The gun will neither know nor care what you are shooting at or where you are shooting. Various firearm types may be considered to be optimal for different types of shooting, but so what? Buy what you like and shoot what you like. If you ever ever get...

    Walther P38 Year of Manufacture?

    Those are the proof marks. The eagle over "N" signifies nitro proofing. The stag horn signifies the Ulm proof house. "75" is the year of proofing.

    Autoloader question that's been on my mind

    From the H&K P7 manual: As a third function, the cocking lever releases the slide catch when the slide is locked to the rear. Moderate pressure on the cocking lever is all that is needed to close the slide. This action will simultaneously chamber a round if a loaded magazine has been inserted.

    Double-Ball for.38 Special

    I see two possible problems with the idea: Compared to a standard bullet, a spherical ball would have very little engagement with the rifling, and might not be as stable in flight. Although the two balls might well have a muzzle velocity comparable to a standard bullet, each hall has only...

    Rimire Feeding Issue: 2nd round Fails to Feed

    I have the same question as Travlin. Load a magazine and without putting it in the gun thumb out the top round. If the second round doesn't pop all the way up smartly I would suspect a constriction in the magazine. If the magazine appeared to operate correctly outside of the gun I would...

    Sig p220 decocker question

    When you use the decocker, a tab on the the decocker lever enters into the hammer's single-action notch. On the way it impinges on a bevel on the sear and lifts the sear; thereby releasing the hammer. As the hammer falls it pushes the decocker lever out of its way, the decocker lever releases...

    Did your parents own a gun?

    My parents owned guns but I don't think I was supposed to know that. I don't think they ever fired the guns.

    My Glock drops the striker out of battery.

    Note that in your photo the action is partially unlocked. There is no way the striker should fall with the slide that far out of battery. Your pistol is seriously flawed. Paradoxically, you were fortunate that the slide was far out of battery when the striker dropped. It looks like the...
