It really is such a bummer because S&W has many models in their revolver line that I still would like to have someday. 629 Stealth Hunter 329PD (Screw recoil!) 327 TRR8, new Model 19 and 29. I'd like to have all of those. Well, the 340PD has been fine since its first and so far only trip to S&W...

My experience with new manufactur S&W revolvers has not been good, lock or no. Which is a shame because the new version of the Model 19 looks fantastic and they fixed the forcing cone issue too.

Mandari will be a disaster for the democrats. No win situation for them. If he follows through on all his policy promises it will destroy the city and cure all but the insane fsr leftists of there democrat disease. Or as more likely will happen he won't enact any of the policies he promised...

New manufacture .45 ACP seems to be ranging between. 37 and .45 a round online depending on the quantity ordered and specific brand. It's interesting to find +P FMJ of any type frankly, especially at a low price like that.

Slapping steel at the range again. Still shooting tge Atlanta Arms ammo but its starting to run low. I'm wanting to try some +P ammo. One of my favorite retailers is offering a really good price on Speer Lawman 200gr +P FMJ- $379 for a 1k case. Which is pretty good for .45 ACP. I bet those...

What are the dimensions of that thing? In relative terms. I get the impression it's like a thin Glock 19 aka G48? Is this accurate? I've heard nothing but good things, I'd like to check one out though I'm set for carry guns ATM.

I have ONE 1911. There are many like it but this one is MINE! It is also extremely accurate and reliable and I have become extremely fond of it.

Simply seek to penetrate 12-18 inches through 4 layers of denim with reliable expansion of roughly twice the initial diameter. Whatever numbers and bullets get me to that is fine. A good .38 + P load can JUST about do that. A .357 can do it easily and explosively. I did purchase a moderate...

To be honest I don't quite get people having trouble shooting. 38s out of these things. Hard to hit with, okay sure I get that but recoil wise? I can't even tell the difference between +p and standard .38s in my gun and I'll go through 200 or even 500 rounds in a session and it's no big deal at...

Ah once the mainstay for CCW for decades the J Frame just refuses to die. I myself am still rather fond of my little 340PD Yes, an 11.8 oz .357. I like to describe it as entertainingly ridiculous. I carry .38 +p in it anyway. .357s are amusing though......for maybe 2 cylinders worth. For...

I benchmarked SG Ammo which typically has good prices tgat even if they aren't the cheapest they are close and their shipping is always cheap and very fast. Anyway for 9mm standard FMJ I saw prices around the very low to mid .20s For .45 on similar types I saw low .30s to mid 40s. I do...

You can get .45 online for the mid to upper 30 cent range, 9mm typically runs in the very low 30 cent range That Atlanta Arms ammo, which is very good stuff, ran about .45 cents...........for the .45 ACP. Imagine that!

That makes me wonder if it's cheaper to shoot factory .45 ACP now, what with it being just a couple cents per round more than 9mm. Might see a revival of the Fudd Cannon caliber should this keep up.
