I bought this gun on 03/04/04, it is brand new and has not been fired. When the yoke is locked closed in the ready to fire position, I have noticed when I hold the grip in my right hand, with my left hand I can move the "locked" yoke side to side opening a gap of approx .003 to .004 between...

Tampa, FL. On Friday, an enraged pychopath walked into a real estate office where his girl friend had recently been fired. He then shot and killed her former boss, very critically injured a former co-worker with two shots to the neck. He then turned his gun on himself and commited suicide. When...

My son's NAA Guardian .380 is finicky about what he feeds it. It seems to operate best on Win Silvertip Hollow Points or most brands of ball ammo. BUT and this is a big BUT, no matter what he feeds it, it will stovepipe the last round in the magazine, every time. It's his wife's carry piece...

Any one know if there is a forum like this one that discusses North American Arms ?

I just picked up a really nice Ruger MK II target pistol in .22LR. Can someone recommend a good quality brand of readily available ( like Wally World ) clean shooting .22LR ammo? I don't want any 2k for a buck stuff, this gun is too good for that. This is for indoor range use only. I am very...

Please forgive me if my terminology is not correct. I was looking at a Bersa .380 in our local gunshop and noticed that the trigger bar (trigger transfer bar) is external. That's the only thing that turned me away from buying one. Has this been a problem to anyone?:confused: The shop owner is...

This question is probably an over-simplification and may have been brought before this forum previously, if so, I didn't see it. How does one obtain an FFL? Are study manuals available? Any courses of instruction available i.e. The North American School of FFL (LOL)? How much does such a...

Assuming I want to sell a handgun to someone in a different state from mine and I have an ink signed copy of the receiving dealer's FFL. Can I simply take the piece to Fed Ex and send it to the FFL holder or must I have an FFL holder on my end ship the gun to the FFL holder on the other end...

Anyone know if the KTOG Forums are permanetly down?

My Glock G33 has the OEM plastic sights. I have obtained a pair of iron Trijicon sights that I want to install. A couple of questions: 1. Is the front sight threaded? If so should Lock Tight be used to install the iron front sight? 2. How difficult is it to remove and replace the rear sight...

Why would anyone want an expensive 12 ounce .357Magnum revolver? I went to the range again today and remembered why I dislike my S&W 340PD so much. Believe me when I tell you it is absolutely painful to shoot. I got through 4 five round sets and had to give it up. I have tried and tried to get...

I see that the new Taurus Model 905 in 9MM is available at some gun shops. I have read that the 9MM launches really well out of short barreled weapons, i.e. the Taurus with a 2" bbl. I have also read and been told by a knowledgable police dept armoror that the .357Magnum doesn't do well out of...

I own several guns both semi-autos and revos. When it comes to working on them, I don't pretend to be a gunsmith so I leave that up to the pros. Now my question: Will changing the rebound spring in my 340PD lighten up the trigger a little without affecting reliability? I sent to Wolff's Springs...

I recently acquired a beautiful older Ruger Security Six with 2-3/4" barrel. I looked down the barrel from the muzzle end when I bought it and it looked fine. When I got home, I looked again from the cylinder end and I can see what I believe is lead where the bullet enters the barrel when...

I own an S&W 340PD (.357 Magnum) it is a fantastically light, easy to carry, dam hard to shoot well, very expensive CCW piece WITH FAULTS!!! I have carried mine every day for about a year, it has about 1000 hurtful full power Cor-Bon 125gr .357's run thru her. I am one fussy SOB when it comes...

This and other forums seem geared toward bigger is better and if you're not tottin' a .45acp you aint tottin' at all. I must admit that through 65 years of life, 32 of which were spent in the military, I too felt that you had to carry a huge "fight stopper". I'm beginning to change my mind. My...

I have a really nice Colt Pocketlite .380 that I want to keep in perfect condition, so, I don't want to have to force anything. When I field strip for cleaning, I can't remove the barrel from the slide. It moves very freely but I can't seem to move it back in the slide far enough to lift it...

To begin with, I own 3 Glocks and 2 Kahrs, this is not intended to "flame" anyone, this is simply a personal observation. Does anyone other from me find the all stainless steel Kahr K40 to be superior to the Glock G27 and G23? The Kahr trigger action is much better, the grip is at a more...

Today I was making the rounds of our local gunshops and I came across a really nice looking Colt 1911 Officer's Model that looked to be in outstanding condition, it really got my attention. But two things made me think twice, one was the price, he was only asking $499 for the piece which seemed...

Gotta chance to buy a Para Ord P10-45 in what appears to be excellent condition. Price negotiable around $500. I know they are out of production, there must be a reason why? Anybody out there have one that can give and honest opinion? Is it worth $500?
