I found a couple of threads involving cycling and carrying but none really stayed on topic of recommended guns. So here is my attempt at it... A month or so ago I decided to start biking to work. It's 7 miles one-way and part of it is through a not-so-nice neighborhood. Now, I carry a...

I recently purchased a "Colt Custom Combat 10" in about 95% condition. From what I have found, this was a limited run of 400 pistols in '88. I believe the finish is electroess nickel. Does anyone know if this information is correct? If so, from what I understand, cleaning an electroless...

When I am forced to places that it is illegal to enter with a gun, I usually pull the slide off of my Colt Defender, put it in my holster along with the magazine and leave the receiver hidden somewhere in my truck. That way if it is stolen (or my truck is stolen and my gun along with it) it...

I posted this on the C&R forum and the CZ forum and got no reply. Maybe I'll have more luck here: Will the mags for the CZ-92 or the Intratec Protec fit the CZ-45? I just picked up a CZ-45 and would like to have an extra mag or two around. There is a local gunshow coming up this weekend...

Did anyone notice that GA changed their format again? It sorta resembles the format it had before they put in the "improvements". A lot easier to use and best of all you don't have to register to use the search function!!! I just bought a CZ-45 from a seller on there. It is about as easy...

One of my life long dreams may be shortly about to come true. I have the change to purchase a used Springfield M1A w/ about 1000 rnds through it. It is FTF with someone a friend met at a local range that we both belong to. Although I've wanted one of these rifles ever since I first saw one...

15 weeks ago my wife gave birth to our first child, a baby girl. I immediately fell in love with her and have devoted my life to her well-being in all aspects including and especially her physical well-being. To that end, I have given serious thought to the fact that I have a handgun permit...

It's interesting the different titles that the several local news sites give to the same story. Can you tell which news-source is VERY anti-gun? Channel 6 news: "Police: Man Fatally Shot Robber" http://www.theindychannel.com/news/9782566/detail.html Channel 13 News: "Lawrence police...

I have the opportunity to purchase a NIB Colt Z-40 and I think the asking price is a bit high ($800) :eek: . Anyone have any input? Thanks in advance.

I don't want to start a flame war or insult anyone, but something has been bothering me for quite a while. I know we all (I hope) here are patriots in the strictest sense of the word and probably all think the US is the best country on earth. With that being said, does anyone else think it is...

Does anyone know if Kalashnikov developed any other firearm designs?

I have been looking for a set of DARK wood grips for my newly acquired nickel Python. I haven't found ones that knock my socks off. I am looking for ebony or other darker-then-night wood grips. I checked Hogue, Spegel, Eagle, Ajax, Badger (closest so far) and have not found ones that I really...

Has anyone had trouble with light pin strikes with the Beretta U22 NEOS? I bought a used one a few months ago and tried several types of ammo (Winchester, CCI, Remington, etc.) with it and it has intermittent misfires due to light pin strikes. I cleaned the heck out of it with no change. I...

I recently picked up one of my dream guns: Colt's Python!! The guy I bought it from said it was built in '77 and has a nickel finish. He said he only put 1/2 box ammo through it and from the condition I believe him. Is there any way to check to see if it is nickel vs. stainless? If it is...

Hello all. This is my first post; I am one of those silent majority types. Anyway, I have a Taurus 605 2/14" 357 Mag Stainless revolver that I bought before I learned I'm an auto guy. I have had a problem with the cylinder binding after shooting .357 mag (no problem with .38 Spl). Can't...
