A few of my recoil sensitive family members rely on .22LR for defense. It's hell out of a rifle and still nothing to laugh at out of a pistol. The guns most commonly used for this in my little world are the M&P15-22, M&P22C and LCP2 in .22. Although they are very reliable I make sure all know...

Water jug shooting is a good, fun and cheap way to see how they may open up under ideal conditions. Things often get less impressive when shooting living tissue. Too bad more handgun hunters don't use defensive calibers *sarcasm* and do terminal ballistics blogs.

It could be a weak recoil spring not returning the slide fast enough to load properly. Back when I had an LCP a heavier Wolff recoil spring made it nicer, should I say less miserable to shoot, and more reliable.

I've gotten both before and took them to the range to decide. This happened in a Hipower vs CZ75 situation. Only sold one at a slight loss.

Depends what you want. Classic target pistol or a defensive trainer. Ruger for target, and S&W for trainer.

Now it's time to get a S&W M&P22 or compact! I have the full size and it's been surprisingly reliable for 7 years now. Not the most accurate .22 pistol, but good enough for a cheap trainer. Dawson sights are a recommended upgrade. The stock ones suck, especially the rear.

I feel like a lot of people shy away or give up on Kahrs because of the trigger pull. Being like a smooth DA revolver pull it is unlike many strikers, but if mastered allows one to use an excellent brand of handgun. The PM/CM9 is one of the smallest 9mms one can get. It would be nice if they...

20190418_121419 by Ben86 posted Apr 22, 2019 at 9:44 PM M&P 45 2.0! For about $400 it's a great gun. Has a grip that's not a 2x4 and so easy to shoot. I say this as someone that is much more of a 9mm guy.

Oh no, I hope you aren't one of those get you killed in the streets guys! ::rofl: Look you've stated your reasons to use one and I have stated my reasons to not use one. No need to be defensive about it. I prefer to have my handgun in a compressed low ready position and light in the other. If...

I had a PM9 and loved it. Light recoil for its tiny size. If you can get used to the Kahr trigger it's a gem. CM9 isn't much different.

Mua? You shouldn't assume to know the level of training of anyone here you don't know personally. Back to the subject, I still do not understand how one can search dark corners of his house with a WML without also pointing his gun at unknown targets. Potentially family members. If you can...

I still don't want to roam around my family dwelling flagging all inside just to look around. My hand held Coast light gives me a safe and practical option to ID. If I want to shoot two handed I can drop the light and let it hang from a lanyard on my wrist. Also, I have placed auto night...

Coal Dragger, your wml tactics may be perfect for a foreign military theater, but I don't want to sweep around my occupied house with my family in it like that using a wml. I accept the handicap to my shooting for increased safety. I don't believe that is an ignorant viewpoint personally.

I keep considering it for my M&P9C 2.0, but before I invest conclude it is drastically unnecessary and probably comboresome compared to a pocket clip light. I am fine with my one handed shooting skills with a light close in anyway.

I too want to get into 10mm and am comparing the two. Seems like the best poly striker 10mm options. The G20 feels like a 2x4 compared to the XD so I will probably go for the XD based on ergos. Even though I hate grip safeties. Hey you could go for the giant monstrosity known as the G40 and...

Manual safeties on a pistol offend me on a personal level. ;) Practically, I can learn to live with it and have with various models. That said if given an easy no safety option I would rather that. My holster and training is my safety.

The entitlement of Californians never ceases to amaze me. I am also confused by the attitude that delaying everyone else's ability to get mags so that you can get more somehow enhances the legal victory. Whether retailer put you at the front of the line or not had a neutral effect on the legal...

Sure ok, I guess CA has rights to all magazine sales for a couple weeks. I fully support the efforts in court hard won, seriously great job! I just think how retailers gave buyers in other states, even with pending orders, the middle finger is BS. Just my opinion.

"I guess I don't feel too bad about your few weeks, all things considered. Heck we have been waiting for many years." And electing, or failing to defeat, the same tyrants for many years that are slowly trying to ruin the whole country in CA's image. So I don't feel sorry either. I just...
