    More women with pistol permits

    Just came back from the local Sheriff dept handgun permit office. Been there a dozen times in the past year or so.. You have to sign in , and give a reason for the vist.. "add a pistol"- "Pistol permit" etc.. I have noticed the past few years that on some days, there are 2 female names for every...

    My new favorite handgun

    I got mine from J&G Sales.. There are half a dozen sites where you can get them... They ONLY come with 12 round mags, thats how they were made. I had to find an ffl thats a smith and was lucky to find a very good one close by.. He altered the mag down to a 10 rounder for an extra 25 bucks...

    Hey Anyone have experience with Kel Tec?

    I have a P32 and it runs just fine.. Keltecs really don't "look" to be robust, or well made, but many many guys own them ,use them heavily and swear by them.. They look and feel cheap for sure.. Almost shockingly so. A Ruger polymer gun for example , looks to be of much higher quality...

    My new favorite handgun

    Surplus Beretta model 81 Cheetah, Italian made surplus.. Mine was made in 1980.. .32 acp, classic lines, a joy to handle and shoot, and these things just reek of superior quality. So much nicer than my collection of plastic fantastic handguns.. Very light recoil, extremely accurate. They are...

    Don’t Write Off the .380

    The P238 will do anything the others you mentioned will do, Its very accurate, and reliable to a fault.. We have 2 of them, and I can't remeber even 1 FTF or stovepipe, .. Not one in years.. I like the look of the Kimber, but they are not regarded as a reliable weapon.. Lots of issues a few...

    Don’t Write Off the .380

    Exactly right.. More and more i was finding I was leaving the P938 home because although its small for a 9mm, I found at times, I didn't want its all metal weight "encumbering" me especially in summer, and at times I just had to run to the store for a second, or go and get gas.. Then one day I...

    Don’t Write Off the .380

    I have a P938 but actually liked my wife's P238 so much that I bought on for myself.. NEVER feel "undergunned" with it, ever. I was often carrying a Keltec P32 in .32 acp, but can't hit a thing with it.. just can' shoot it well at all.. The P238 makes me almost look like i can shoot half...

    Bizarre striker fired revolver

    I like it.. way to complex for what it is, but yet, beautifully machined, and looks to be of great quality.. If I had that gun , I would remove the wood handle, and throw the entire gun in a bucket of Auto trans fluid for a week, work it, scrub it well, and take it out and fire it.. Sure...

    Good news from the Commonwealth of Virginia

    The real problem is this.. Nationwide, there are substantially more citizens that want to disarm their fellow Americans than those that support and defend the 2nd Amendment.. Its really that simple... In the state of NY for instance, Cuomo has overwhelming support, and his nefarious "SAFE...

    Good news from the Commonwealth of Virginia

    agreed.. Nothing like a "false flag" or two to stir up the latent Trotskyites in the population. they will as always blame the gun not the lunatic OR state sponsored patsy pulling the trigger. It will never end.,, Either they win eventually, or are crushed so badly at the ballot box time...

    I need another handgun

    Wrong gun.. This is the correct one.. Model 81 Cheetah, NOT the 81 FS,.... Yes, they are all over the net.. at least 5 dealers selling them. From $199 for "good" condition to about $239 for "very good" condition.. FFL fees, shipping bring the price closer to $275-$300 but still a nice...

    I need another handgun

    I would heartily recommend a Sig P938 or p238.. Then again, I bought one of these surplus for $200, and its a truly wonderful gun!- Italian Made, most are lightly used, some not even fired, fantastic workmanship, accurate and as soft a shooter as a .22.. Lots of places online still have...

    WTT Trade Ruger Mk III 22/45 Target or Ruger SR .22

    for whatever... I have 4 semi auto .22L pistols now.. 3 Rugers and a Beretta, and just don't need them all, although I REALLY like each of them.. Both the SR .22 and the Mark III Target are mint in box, not even broken in. the Target has 200 rounds through it, and the SR 22 less than 150.. Both...

    Improper method of concealed carry?

    That would work of course but there's just no need.. Before the Ulticlip would come off, it would tear the fabric.. they really grip tight, and the original clips are actually wide and well made.. Its just that they are made to grab under a belt, not grip fabric.. When I get a chance, I...

    Improper method of concealed carry?

    Yes,,, It works well.. With the way I carry, at times when practicing draw, I would get the holster out with the gun because the factory clips were not designed to hold fabric.. With the Ulticlip, the holster can be canted anyway I like, and is wonderfully secure.. Can't possibly pull out...

    Improper method of concealed carry?

    Understand that, but when added along with a the original clip, it keeps all movement to a bare minimum,, Makes the holster stay absolutely upright in the pocket, very stable, and just works better for me 100%... I bought a couple wider leather belts than I had and that has helped as well...

    For those of you with an LCP II.

    I dunno, I have my doubts as to if you'll carry it as much as your P238, after shooting both at the range,, The Sig is a lot more accurate, and a lot easier to shoot for any length of time.. I owned The LCP Custom as well as the LCPII,, Both nice little guns, until I shot my wife's P238...

    Ruger LCP 2 Torture Test

    I had an LCPII and it was a really reliable gun.. No issues ever.. Only thing i didn't like was the recoil.. I am a reasonable size guy, but man that thing still hurt to shoot.. My wife had an LCP Custom, and I had the LCPII.. Both are gone.. Too hard to practice with at the range.. 2-3 mags...

    Are Online Retailers Killing Local Gun Stores? Should We Care?

    I dunno, I look at it differently.. Buy a gun local, store owner makes a buck on the sale.. Find it online say $150 cheaper, and he can't match the price?.. He STILL gets a nice taste of the sale, say $30 or $40 for 5 minutes paperwork with the FFL fees we are forced to pay.. The GOOD...
