Had a 3” 38spl that I liked well enough. Seemed blocky and rattley compared to my 642, so I let it go.

Nice effort by Henry. Will be on the lookout for one of these.

I wish they’d bring back the IMI Timberwolf

Does this preempt local bans? I think Cook county prohibits all minis. Chicago only bans the folding stock version. I suppose it would be too much to hope for to not be subject to three layers of AWBs.

...and a state’s attorney who fails to prosecute gun violations, like straw buying.

Never so far. To be fair, I rarely find time to go shooting so that gives me fewer opportunities for mistakes and less time to get complacent. I’ve been looking at getting my carry permit and minimizing the possibility of a negligent discharge is top on my priority list as I get set up.

9mm 124gr Speer gold dot LE 38 spl 110gr Hornady Critical Defense +p both seemed to perform well in the Lucky Gunner tests.

I won an auction online and already sent over payment. The seller is trying to ship and our respective FFLs each insist the other FFL needs to send a copy of their license first (VA to IL) and will reciprocate once that has been done. We are at an impasse. Has anyone else run into this? Is...

Do any of the 986 PC owners carry it concealed and if so, do you have holster recommendations?

What kind of grips are those on the SP101?

I wish this attitude were more pervasive in responding to these mass shootings. I get the feeling from the expert discussion that one or ten or fifty deaths due to inaction are preferable to one death due to action. Hence you get standoffs measured in hours while people bleed out or a shooter...

Benelli MR1 can be had with a sporter stock

Ruger 77/44

You can go to a gun store in the suburbs or order online and ship to an FFL. It’s fairly easy. They’re not responsible for knowing all the ins and outs of the Chicago municipal code. If you bought from a store with a gunsmith you could have the capacity limited before taking possession.

Why, a Garand in 458 win mag, of course https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/07/06/oood-mccann-industries-458-win-mag-garand

Thanks. I can deal with one round fewer. Other options would be a Beretta 1301 Tactical or Benelli M2 Tactical, which both have 5 round capacity, and therefore comply with the restriction. I prefer the FN SLP, hence the question.

I live in Chicago, which has an AWB prohibiting possession of semi-auto shotguns with a fixed magazine capacity in excess of five rounds (that’s just one of a list of features, but the only one relevant to my question.). At some point, I would like to get an FN SLP, which has a capacity of six...

Korth announced a conversion kit a couple of years ago, but I don’t know if it ever came to fruition. Their revolvers are very pricey so I suspect the kit would be as well. http://www.gunsholstersandgear.com/2016/01/13/korth-9mm-conversion-for-sw-l-frame-revolver/

If you asked Cooper whether adding 1.3 lbs vs the Steyr in order to get semi auto capability was worth it he would certainly say “no”. If you practice your bolt work you can have the second round ready by the time you’re back on target. Then he’d probably ask how the trigger compares to the Steyr.

What has changed so much since 2006 that would lead Cooper to design a different gun? One of the recurring themes of his writings is that there is nothing new under the sun. Most new variations are just treading over old ground and true innovations are few and far between. He did like the...
