Yes I agree, shusky I should have covered this in my post. I knew as soon as I walked away from the computer I would have to read this. But I love turning to forums for this kind of info because I love reading good knowledgeable people that love their hobby give answers that make a young person...

My son is trying to tell me that a 9mm recoil shot from a gun is the same as a 40 S&W shoot from the same gun. I disagree. His opinion comes from all the research he has done. My opinion comes from talking to people. Please set us straight. It has been a long time since I have posted and I am...

Haven't be on much but I know where to come with a question. Is the felt recoil of a PM40 vs a PM9 considerable, or should I say that much greater? And is a standard load .40 s&w ballisticaly equlvalant to a +p in 9mm. For reference I now practice with a S&W 642 with a regular round, non +p, and...

First time to the range with the new p22 and it had a hard time cycling. I was using Federal Champion 40 grain high velocity. What do I need to do?

THR is nice, all this good info from all, Thanks. One thing I have learned, do not us anything new with out very careful study. I almost damaged a fine machine. Working on our guns should be approached with the attitude of back porch whittling, if you do it like I do that is. Any suggjestions...

Sorry jt1 about jumping the gun so to speak! It was strange after about 50 or so snaps these things strated to work apart and slightly binding the cylinder I hope it is ok to say they were made by Traditions Performance Firearms manufactured in Italy. But when it comes to dry firing I just feel...

My fault it is the snap caps they are binding. Looks like two of them are coming apart around the primer area. I think this was the problem. Well that's what I get for buying the higher priced ones. Think I will get the ones Midway has, I need some drivers anyway.

Trigger Problem After coming home from the range from the initial 100 rounds from the gun. I bought some snap caps claened the gun with no break down. Cleaned the barrel and chambers wiped down and put a drop of oil on the ejector rod, crane, and yoke. I think that is what all those terms are...

Sorry SwampWolf I left you out by mistake. In the end I hope to have at least four holsters for my snubs.

Thanks to all the good info for us new to the club! Brassman the tooth pick application is just what I was looking for. Erik F That sure is nice. Nematocyst hope you had a good nap, and a good day getting the ccp.

What is gas checked? I think I have seen this explained, gases going around the bullet before it enters the barrel? But I am not sure please explain. Thanks

Took the new gun (642) to the range for the first time and fired 100 rds. If I knew how to post pics you could see how pleased I am. Shoot std pressure fmj round nose Remington and Magtec 158g jhp. The Magtec were very hard to eject cartridge after firing, I will not shoot them again, do not...

Thanks Spiff P239 Thanks for the post about the Milt Sparks. The Summer Speacial and the #1 Heritage seemed to be my favorite. Thanks again.

Galco Ultimate Second Amendment Does anyone have experience with the Galco Ultimate Second Amendment Inside the Pants Holster. Looked at one seemed a littel stiff to draw but would it break in with use. They make a product that helps with that, does it do well? This would be one of two forms...

Holster for 642? Jt1 I will pocket carry some but need a good way to draw setting. With that in mind and to cover all seasons IWB is the way I want to go. Left ankle sounds good to but know nothing about that setup. I seen a pic that appeared to have fmjswc loaded in the gun, I need to look...

Joined up today! After much thought I joined the 642 club today. Grew up shooting dad's airweight and I am still woundering what I have done? But I bought it knowing I will carry it at all times. I don't think I would have done that with a all steel that I wanted. Now i need a week side...

I do not know if this is corret to put in the thread for whatever reson but the gun I am looking at is GunsAmerica Stock # 976661815. I am going to do more research when I return from a weekend trip.I do not know the product line but would like to get a ccw and a piece of history at the same...

Gota love the new guy, sorry for the incomplete original question up front! what is the make up of this gun, are they are steel? And would it be ok to put a few +p through it and carry. I think it was a S&W m37 I had years ago and I did not know any better and it seemed that the cylinder got...

So does the 3rd issue one have timing issues? The dealer says this gun is Third issue, maybe off on his date. Is there a web site to check against serial#?

Could someone tell me the pros and cons to this gun, 3rd-Issue, Blued, mfd. 1976, S/N M33xxx. It is being sold for $395 Thanks
