Just got my first new gun for the year 2010, a Taurus 990 4-inch stainless, 24 hours ago, from PSS. $379 + tax. Haven't fired it yet, but I think I noticed a problem. It works fine (dry fire test using empty cases) in SA, the cylinder locks up whenever the hammer is cocked. But when I pull...

Hi everyone, What I need to accomplish here is to fill a hole on a Glock frame using epoxy, and make it appear as natural as possible (black colored epoxy when dried, for example). The reason I need to do this, is that I've had a Cominolli manual safety put in my Glock, now I need to take it...

From what I read, 440C is the best value right now, for hardness, toughness, and antirust capability, on a per dollar basis. It should be used by all those value-oriented makers widely as I expected. AUS-8, on the other hand, is equivalent to 440B on the hardness. For blade steel, hardness...

Here's an article published by Handguns magazine, back in Sept. 2000. It's about the HS2000 pistol, a name for the Springfield XD when they were cheaper. Here's a quote from it on the XD's finish: Wow, they got that right, didn't they? Wonder just how bad the "ordinary blueing" can be...

Don't know if this video is real(it looks real, but Michael Moore movies also look like they were documentaries). I'm no Bush lover, but this thing questions about everything the Bush government said and did, and they got documents to back it up. It's easy to make up imaginary theory, but not...

I read some where that these twins decock to a half cock position, much the same like the decocker on a CZ pistol. Is it true? I searched here but coulndn't find anything mentioning about it. Thanks!...

Was on Beretta's web site and noticed they'd said "Maryland has recently approved use of the OMEGA GUNLOCK for sale with handguns sold in the state of Maryland. Find Out More." So I clicked on that "Find Out More" link, and read about State of Maryland fell in love with some gun lock called...

They called Glock's grip "unnatural" and more like "Point and Adjust"...;) I read some on the net that, Springfield is using Melonite finish(same as Glock's Tenifer in a different name) on the new XD45ACP and will soon spread it to the entire XD line. I think this is the most significant...

I just checked the new updated Walther web site, and couldn't find any mention of the AS models. All they got are the QA version, for both P99 and P99 Compact. Guess 007 will probably say the heck with these sissy copycat pistols, I'll just get myself a Glock... :neener:

Searched here and the Beretta forum using "px4 45acp", for some insight on the rumored 45 version of PX4. No one knows the specs. From Google, I found this web site: http://www.securityarms.com/20010315/galleryfiles/2900/2979.htm The writing was very sure and positive, saying the 45...

Went to http://www.berettausa.com/ and clicked on the 92/96 series and saw the M9A1. All of a sudden the left hand side has a link says "90-Two". I thought they gonna bring the G model to US this time. All they listed there were the Type Fs. Mmmm...:uhoh:

I thought cocked and locked is condition 1. Uncocked and chamber loaded is 2, unloaded chamber with loaded mag inside is 3, and unloaded plus mag out is 4. Here's a page where a guy already got a couple of XDs asking question whether Xd's grip safety would make it safer than a DA revolver(I...

Kudos to Smith, what a revolutionary concept!... It's called S&W Performance Center's 8-shot .357 "Tactical" revolver, from Gunblast.com. Looks high tech, doesn't it? Too bad it has performance center name on it, which means limited production and expensive like hell(normal Smith models...

It's called CZ-75D, from Gunblast.com. CZ's decocker design does not suit my taste. They always decock to half cocked notch. I don't like to carry a half cocked pistol, otherwise I'd carry a Glock. With their decocker models, you can't further decock the hammer to full rest because, if you...

Video It's funny they claim the SA/DA operating system their "innovation", which in fact is the exact same thing used on every classic CZ-75 style(CZs with a manual safety) pistols since, well, 1975. Basically any traditional DA pistol that allows cocked-and-locked carry, is the same thing...

This is the page on Guncrafter Industries web site that talks about the .50 GI caliber. Why am I posting it again? There's a new paragraph in the middle. I don't know if anyone else already posted this before here so sorry if it's a repeat. I'll boldface that paragraph in the quote...

My P94 .40 shoots great. Other than the bulkiness(a Ruger trademark) there's one thing I haven't found for my gun to make it perfect, well, as much as possible: a .357SIG barrel. I've found one on EFK Fire Dragon site: http://www.efkfiredragon.com/Price5.htm They call it "Link & Pin"...

I learned this from a guy called westincar on the Ruger forum. It feels good, and didn't add to much bulk to the grip. I'll see how it shoots next time I go to the range...:cool:
