    ADG electronic top-loading handgun safe

    I ordered one of these last month for $64 after shipping. When it was delivered, I tried opening it with the key, but it wouldn't open. I tried the 9 volt battery jumpstart feature, and it opened fine. The electronics worked, but the mechanical key-lock was not assembled right. Anyway, the...

    HKS magazine loaders are awesome!

    I just got mine today, and it kicks ass! I can load my P95's 15 round clips really quick. It's as easy as loading a revolver. There is no pressure on your thumb at all. I highly recommend it. I paid $10.95 plus tax at a small, local pawn shop for a new one. Now I can have 15 rounds in my...

    Recommendations for a good fanny pack holster, and fair price

    I want to get a fanny pack holster for walking through the woods and maybe for when riding an ATV. It won't look cool, but it would probably be a good fit for me. My pistol is a Ruger P95, a full-size 9mm. I keep running into the Biannchi, but they are fairly high. Do any of you have any...

    I'd like to buy my accessories from a THR sponsor.

    I am about to buy an HKS magazine loader. I'll be buying some other stuff soon. I would like to buy from a vendor who sponsors this site, or a vendor that is at least THR-friendly. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    I think I am a Libertarian

    I never really checked into it before, but none of the Republicans look really good to me. So, I started looking into other political parties. Here's what Wikipedia had to say about the Libertarian party. Here is a link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_Party_(United_States) Key...

    First day shooting my new P95

    I went and shot a few rounds yesterday with my new (and only) pistol. I walked into the woods and setup a target I made and printed out. I taped the target to a stump of an old tree that had been cut down. I walked back about 15-20 yards, as far as I could go before falling into a creekbed...

    Just bought my first 9mm ammo

    I just got back from Walmart. I bought 2 100 round boxes of Winchester white box 9mm target ammo for $14.56 per box. That's not too bad I don't think. I'm going to shoot 150 of them in my new P95 this weekend. I'm saving 50 for shooting with my mom next weekend. She likes to shoot, but...

    Recommended first things to do when getting my first pistol

    I have a brand new Ruger P95 on order. It should be at my dealer today or tomorrow. Should I field strip and clean it before I shoot it this weekend?

    Slight trouble with an online gun seller

    On the night of 1/4/2007, I ordered a P95PR15 from Bud's. Their website says it was in stock. I got an email today, 1/9/2007, stating that my order has been cancelled due to them not ACTUALLY having the gun in stock. The email also said that my credit card would be credited back for the entire...

    Bud's Gun Shop "Stage 1" order status?

    I ordered a pistol from Bud's 4 days ago. I have an order status of "Stage 1" when I check on the order on their website. They say to allow up to 7 days for them to ship a gun. So, they aren't late or anything yet. I just want to know what "Stage 1" means. Do any of you know?

    Alabama background check

    I ordered my first pistol online last week. I talked to the local dealer that will be doing the transfer for me. They say I have to fill out a form for the background check. Do I have to wait a few days after the background check before I can pick up my pistol? If so, I'll just go in today...

    I just ordered my first handgun.

    Last night I ordered a pistol from Bud's. It is a Ruger P95PR15. That is a 9mm, blued, 15+1, polymer frame DA/SA pistol with an accessory rail, exposed hammer, and a manual safety (instead of the decocker). It comes in a plastic case with two 15 round magazines...

    "New in box" definition of online retailers

    It may seem like a stupid question, but I've asked them before. I've been looking a lot for a pistol. Many online retailers list their guns as "New in box." Does that automatically mean that they are talking about the factory box with an extra magazine? I'm particularly interested in Bud's...

    Ammo for Taurus 24/7 Pro 9mm

    I'm about to order a Taurus 24/7 Pro 9mm (maybe the long slide version). Is there a less expensive round that this pistol is reliable with? I want some good stuff to keep loaded into it when it sits in the nightstand, but for practicing, I want something cheaper that isn't total crap. Thanks.

    I can't find many of them. The ones I do find are about $50 overpriced.

    More sights for Ruger P95 or Taurus 24/7 Pro 9mm

    I am VERY close to buying either a Ruger P95 or Taurus 24/7 Pro 9mm. I am heading to the gun shop later today to feel the Taurus. I've shot a P95 already. I'm just wondering, if I want to change the sights for whichever gun I buy, which one would have more aftermarket sight options? I'm...

    Ruger P95PR and P95PR15: only difference mag capacity?

    The Ruger P95 has several variants. The two that are most "for me" are the P95PR (10+1 capacity) and the P95PR15 (15+1 capacity). Will the P95PR accept the 15 round magazines? I'm assuming the answer is NO, and that the P95PR15 has a fatter grip.

    Pushbutton non-electronic handgun lockbox

    I have been looking around for an electronic handgun "safe" to keep in my nightstand, for my upcoming first handgun purchase. I stumbled upon this one that has the benefits of a pushbutton electronic keypad, but doesn't need any electrical power. It may or may not interest any of you. I...

    Used but RELIABLE 9mm pistol with rail for $250?

    Is it probable that I (new to handguns) can find a semi-automatic 9mm pistol that is RELIABLE, has an accessory rail, and can be found in good condition for $250 or less? I would also like a manual safety.
