Hi, all. Has anyone used Fiocchi 9mm hollow point ammo? The price seems right, but one thing I've noticed about ammo that is less expensive is it tends to have a LOT of muzzle flash. Not a good thing in low light situations. Kind of like the Magtech SCHP I've used in my CW9. I was looking...

Starfire was good stuff when Eldorado made it in the US. Now PMC is making it in Korea. Does anyone still use it? Opinions? I carry it still, but don't have the resources to test it.

Hi, everyone. I have a question for you ballistics officionados... The G29 barrel is about an inch shorter than the G20. When using full power 10mm loads like Double Tap, does the shorter barrel affect bullet performance to any significant degree--i.e. muzzle energy and velocity? I...

I was just curious.... I've owned a G29 for about two years now. Aside from the cost of feeding it, I love it. I was originally going to get a G20, but the grip is a tad too big for my hands. Anyone else have a G29? Opinions? Thanks!

I just tried some of Cor-Bon's 125 gr. traditional JHP rounds in my Kahr CW9. Jam...jam....jam.... I've never had a problem in my CW9 with Gold Dots or other Glaser/Cor-Bon designs like Safety Slugs or Pow'R Ball. However, the first thing I noticed was that the mouths on the 125 gr...

Anyone know where I can buy some on-line? Seems about as rare as hail in the Amazon!

As far as the two brands go, is there much of a difference between the two--specifically in 9mm for self-defense purposes out of a Kahr CW 9? Any preferences? Thanks.

Hi, everyone. I know people have a lot of different opinions regarding pre-fragmented ammo like Magsafe. Some people swear by it, others dismiss it as total junk. In either case, does anyone know if it's OK to use the Magsafe MAX +P load in an alloy framed gun like the SW 642 if the gun is...

I took a class recently where the instructor said he never practices with his 642 because it was his main carry gun and he didn't want to "wear it out." Instead, he rents a similar snub to practice with. Is this being a little too cautious? I own a 642 and I have probably around 600 rounds...

Hi, everyone. I just bought a new Kahr CW9 that I'm going to break in at the range next week. I've heard that Kahrs can be finicky about ammo. What experiences has anyone had regarding the best 9mm FMJ ammo for a Kahr CW9? Thanks.

Hi, everyone. I'm looking for some "big dot" Tritium sights for my G29 and my P220. Does anyone have a brand they recommend? Thanks!

Hi, everyone. I'm in the market for a laser grip for my J frame SW 642. I've been looking at both CT and Lasermax. I was leaning toward the CT "Defender" grip, but my concern is that it might not be long enough at the butt for me to get a good grip. I had to replace the factory bantam...

There is an earlier thread that discussed Glock kBs! One of the reasons cited for this phenomenon is the fact that Glock uses unsupported chambers. Being such a high pressure round, does anyone know if the 10MM model Glocks have supported chambers? Seems to me they should for such a potent round.

I just found out Detonics closed its doors again. They made 1911s that seemed to get pretty good reviews. I was thinking about buying their Combat Master. Does anyone know what happened? :uhoh:

Hi, everyone. Hope everyone had a good holiday. I own a stainless P220, and I was wondering what would be a good holster to carry it in. The thing is really heavy. I own a Fobus OWB holster, but I don't like carrying it that way. The gun sticks out too much, and I have to keep pulling my...

I just ordered a box for my G29. It seems like a great idea. The polymer ball facilitates expansion upon impact. Seems to solve the problem of a traditional HP round getting clogged and failing to expand. Anyone used it before?

Yeah, I know....Slate is a "liberal" web site. However, I think this is interesting. Is the economy going south? http://www.slate.com/id/2180461/ But this fall has been a terrible one for those in the business of making and selling rifles and shotguns. And for the dwindling core of...

Buffalo Bore makes some impressive +P .38 Special ammo. It's very hot. Does anyone know if it falls within SAAMI pressure guidelines?

I just bought a Master 90 gun lock for my Sig P220ST. I have a small child at home, and I wanted to keep my bedside gun secure from her should she ever crawl into my room while I'm asleep. It's a trigger lock, and the instructions clearly state "DO NOT USE ON A LOADED GUN!" However, I can't...
