Hello All, Just curious to see who carries their Taurus 24/7 as their CCW. I recently picked up a new 24/7 in 9mm dirt cheap and it's my first 9mm handgun. As with many people on THR, I'm a longtime .45 and .40 fan but the 24/7 has really grown on me so far. It's quite a nice handgun and...

some nutjob in my favorite gunshop told me all about it last night and that the "NAS" actually tried to recruit him to do the deed. He turned them down and they got "two shooters, ex-Marines" to take care of business. This guy was a few fries short of a happy meal. He is hands down the...

Hey All, I was at a show last weekend and was told by a dealer there that he received a notice from Colt that they were going to be discontinuing their civilian manufacturing and sales to focus on LEO, government, military, etc. contracts. The reason this guy brought up the notice was that we...

Hey All, I am looking at some firearms a friend of mine has for sale and I wanted to get your input as to what would be a good deal and what would be the limit to pay for the individual pieces. Of course I have my own idea/range, but a general consensus would be helpful. They belonged to my...

Hey All, Just a quick question for those of you who may have some experience with this blade...............how do you like the Ontario RTAK or RAT-7? I am pretty sure I want to snatch an RTAK up and I also like the RAT-7. I have sort of been dragging my feet on the purchase(s), but...

I was running some errands today, one of which was renewing my carry license (which was a pleasant experience and took all of $23 and 20 minutes for 5 more years) and I decided to visit an area gun shop that I patronize only on an occassional basis. Usually I do my archery business there...

Hey All............. I received a Christmas gift from my wife that completely caught me by surprise this year: A new Taurus 24/7 9mm. My first 9mm and I'm rather pleased with it so far. We'll have to see how it ends up ranking among my 1911's, Glock, Beretta, Smith & Wessons...

Hey All, Got a quick question just to be sure I'm not mistaken..................are formerly banned to civilian hi-cap mags marked "Restricted to LEO/Military only" ok for civilians to own, use, and/or sell now? I want to be sure of rules & regs...........I know that buying/using new...

The other day I posted a thread asking for reviews about the Taurus 24/7 since my Brother was considering buying one. Well he picked up the .40 yesterday and brought it right over. He got the stainless model and paid $360.00 including tax. The pistol came with a cable lock, two keys, and...

Hey All.................... My brother is hot for the new Taurus 24/7 in .40 cal I handled one yesterday in our local Gander Mountain and it felt pretty good in hand. This one wasn't a .40 though, it was a 9mm for $389.99 I am posting this to see if anyone has one, has shot one, has...

Hey All, My area in central PA is terrible for frequent/good quality pistol competitions from what I've looked into. We've got some pretty good long range, highpower, etc........and I've been shooting those. However, I am very eager to get into some pistol shoots and I was hoping the well...

Am looking for some opinions................... I currently have a BUG in the form of a Beretta Tomcat 3032 and though I really like the quality and shooting this pistol, I am thinking about getting rid of it for 3 main reasons: 1) the potency of the .32 caliber round in...

Right now as I am typing this, there is a massive LEO response taking place at our local mall and all man and vehicle exits are being blocked. It just went over the scanner that a guy brandishing a handgun just went into the "Finish Line" (like a "Footlocker") and walked around the store. A...

As you know, we had Ash Wednesday services yesterday and are now in the 40 day season of Lent. My wife and kids talked about what we would give up for lent as our sacrifice and that got me thinking.........would I (or any of you of course) give up guns and/or shooting over Lent since you are...

Well, it's cold and we have a foot of snow, but I couldn't stand it anymore..............I did some shooting yesterday afternoon. Shot my muzzleloader and will now tear it down and clean it up in detail after a hard muzzle season this year. Shot my G23......I love that pistol (that my wife...

So it was about 10:00 last night and I'm sitting here reading through some threads when I hear my wife open the front door and try to call the dog in for the night. Cold air eventually started coming across the floor of the room I was in and I found it odd that she would have the door open that...

Hey All................. has anyone seen the pic of the Alabama National Guard sniper who terminated an Iraqi homicide bomber inside the Green Zone in Baghdad? The pic has some very graphic results of what a well placed .50 will do to you if on the receiving end. :eek: I'm hesitant...

So I was lurking around the pistol cases tonight at my area Gander Mountain while my wife was picking up an order we'd placed and I noticed something.........something strange, somewhat disturbing, something that just plain reminded me of why I really don't like doing too much business in Gander...

Hey All......... I was checking out two models of Kahr pistols this evening and the price tag was pretty steep. Around $629 for a Kahr 9mm and for the .40 cal model was over $640 I really liked looking them over. They LOOK like they would be nice little carry pieces and fun to shoot. I...

I have a union question that I'd like to get input on before making a stink about it to my union reps. I thought some of you would be able to answer it or at least point me in the right direction. I read recently about teachers (in PA and elsewhere) who had a certain amount of their union...
