Agreed. Happened to me, two times in a row which also just happened to be the first two revolvers I have ever purchased.

Gonna make that steel cry boy!

I've become a S&W fan for sure, I like their products and I will purchase more of them. However when you buy a new manufacture S&W revolver be prepared to send it straight back to S&W, right out of the box even, for repair.

I don't see how they are that much better than something like Esee.

Those stores are overpriced to a laughable degree. Either get from your LGS to support them or order online where you get the best price. I do both., I order magazines in larger quantities online and piecemeal from my LGS.

I'm sure they are outstanding quality but they sure do charge an awful lot for a basic 1095 steel blade.

This shit should be self evident, y'all blowing my mind. As a man once said 'When I cross a one way street I look BOTH ways. That's how little faith I have in humanity" I swear someday I am going build a house, inside out with a patch of grass and garden in the middle, change my name to Wonko...

There is no debate about this. There is a responsible way of doing things and an ignorant dumb fuck way of doing things. It's right in the rules: never point a weapon at something you are unwilling to destroy. How the hell are you to make that determination if you can't see what you are...

You can't say that for sure. What of I'm some lost teenager, the victim of some prank gone wrong? What if I'm a deputy investigating some report? Your neighbors dog? Anything. To be honest an intruder with ill intent is probably the least likely thing to br in your yard. You search/scan...

Pointing a gun at something that you have not identified is stupid, foolish, unethical and depending on the circumstances potentially highly illegal. 'What if" nothing- your bump in the night is more likely to be your kid, pet, spouse neighbor, pizza delivery guy, door dash guy or perhaps most...

Weapon lights aren't really about getting PID, not for the private citizen anyway. A solid identification should have already been achieved prior to illumination with the weapon light as at such time you will now be pointing a deadly weapon at the bogey, if in circumstances that it turns such...

There is no .327 Mag version of this model, just .32 H&R and .38 Special. They absolutely should do a .327 Magnum however. Thjs oft overlooked cartridge is probably the best defensive cartridge for a small revolver. You get 6 round vs 5 and ballistic performance similar, if not slightly...

I have heard they have had some QC issues. Internet scuttle butt so take such with a grain of salt but such things are not at all unheard of from new production S&W revolvers. All that being said I ask where the hell is the .327 Mag version?!

Never heard of em and the price tells me it's likely garbage. There are a few optics that are passable going for around $150 but for use beyond that of fun on the range a quality optic will run you over $200. Duty grade stuff over $300. Holosun has pretty much become the go to for red dots...

SIG is totall garbage now. I didn't realize that they outsource their parts to 3rd world countries that produce shoddily made parts from inferior materials. I'm an M&P man now, through and through. I'll never get rid of my G19 but the M&P is a great pistol, maybe the best on the poly/striker...

As for weaponlights and pistol configs in general- I am happy to have my M&P equipped as it is as I now have a pistol better suited to low light conditions. I carry at work on the night shift, often in seedy Urban industrial areas. A pistol light is there to illuminate your target so you can...

Is there a milspec for pistol lights? To be honest when it comes to accessories you can usually do better than military issue gear since there is a whole bureaucracy involved in getting things approved that we don't have to deal with. As for SiG. After watching a multi hour expose on SIG and...

I dunno, does Modlight have anything in the TRL-7 form factor? I have two ModLights and they are excellent but this Streamlight, in addition to fitting PERFECTLY on the Carry Comp, was $180 and tge output of the HL-X version is more than acceptable. Yes I know it's made in China and yes that...

That is quite impressive. There seems to have been a trend towards higher output at the cost of reduced runtimes. For use by private citizens I think this is an acceptable trade off. They EPL is a compact form factor?

Whats the output on that one again? The market has moved forward quite a bit over the last 3 years. The current offerings from Streamlight are very tough to beat. The HL-X models are pushing insane output fir their size, the TRL7 does 1,000 Lumens @ 22,000 Candela!

If we are going to be silly I'll chose an automatic bazooka what launches angry Belgian Malinois

I really think that in a defensive situation onw should focus on getting ANY kind of solid hit. Center of mass and pull the trigger till the attacker ceases their assault. A solid shot to the pelvis would have a good probability of halting an attacker but a grounded attacker can still be a...

Certainly seems to given the man the drive and zeal to do everything he can to break them. I sincerely hope they realize that if they were to try to do so now they would ignite the rinder box that our Nation has become. A successful attempt would certainly start a true Civil War.

It's like Trump is just going down a wishlist and checking off items one by one. The tried to kill him at least twice now and he can't run again so he will do as he damn well pleases.

Ah, that looka very nice!

VP9A1 is the new model right? The Compact model is also new right?

Perhaps someone will the newly updated version of the VP9 for you.

Interesting. The firing pin block renders this moot anyway.

In terms of what you feel safe with is of course entirely up to you and there is no room for debate there. In terms of pistols being Single, double or DA/SA actions you are objectively and provably incorrect. The Glock Safe action is distinct from all previously listed actions and this type of...

The P365 is not a single action gun. It is a partially precooked striker much like a Glock. Pulling the trigger cocks tge stiker the rest of the way and releases it. It's more like a DAO system.

I got it some time ago, yes indeed.

Oh cripes that is a nice gun! I want the snub nose version of that model. And a 627 TRR8.........and a 629 Stealth Hunter.......and maybe the new no lock model 19

Who the hell could afford to feed an M134 with 7.62 NATO/.308 Win costing $1 or more a shot these days?!. I couldn't even afford to feed an L4 Bren with it's positively sedate rate of fire.

Some kind of 9mm full auto sub gun to start, a B&T GM9 perhaps. Then I'd track down an L4 Series (7.62 NATO) Bren gun. Also one of those recent Kinghts Armaments belt fed machine guns. Select fire lower or conversion for AR15.

Fuck all this legal nonsense, Trump needs to start sending out Delta, SEALS, or what have you, out to Bin Laden these leftist traitors. I want to see democrats, and Hocunt especially, strung up by their toes, beaten and broken like Musolini. I'd take a road trip up there to piss on her corpse.

Not a new gun but a surprising one, to me at least: https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/s-w-csx-e-series-3-6-inch A slightly re-vamped version of S&W's obscure single action carry gun, the CSX-E. I'm suprised to see this since supposedly the gun media killed this poor thing over the way the...

We've discussed this before. We are on a technological plateau, not to mention tge market isn't often welcoming of actual innovation to begin with. There will have to be a technological paradigm shift, some heretofore unknown technology or technique that blows current design norms away. And...

I did have a Bobro QD ACOG mount and I did dismount it several times to test it's return to zero and each time the POI was the same. Other mounts like the Midwest Industries QD mount I have will usually have a small shift, only an amount of consequence to target shooting. For hunting should be...

Okay, I get that but why even get a Carry Comp then? A standard M&P 2.0 is the same thing at that point. Now your slide port will be a faux port and that......... I can't stand fake ports, vents, ducts ect. I suppose the ports on the side of the nose serve no purpose either. Nor the speed...

Why are you swapping barrels? The factory barrel has the port cut into it, swap that and most of the point of the Csrry Comp model is gone. I mean yeah, tge slide serrations are both pretty and useful but the factory integegral comp supposed to be the main draw. From the info I have looked up...

Get the 3" model

Fair enough, being limited to 10 rounds certainly has a strong influence on what you'll carry. I d probably only ever carry the Shield Plus in that situation myself. Nevertheless, see if that 507 just mounts directly on for you.

Return to Zero on QD mounts vary by manufacturer and individual mount. Bobro probably has the best repeatable RtZ but are also quite expensive and somewhat bulky around the latch area. They are fairly light as well. Most other mounts will retain a quick and dirty zero that will likely need to...

I think you will be very pleased with it. A few points- Regarding holster fitment: yes holsters made for the M&P 2.0 should fit the Carry Comps. The Carry Comp Polymer Compact and Metal Fullsize have the same slide/barrel length, the later has the full 17 round grip while the former has the 15...

In enormous long pits lined with lime, that's where all democrats belong.

HKS are fine, the old stand-by. I think the Safariland Comp Loaders are better but they don't offer a 7 shot loader should you get a 7 shot revolver.

You are a grown man and you do as you please, no one has any right to tell you what you should do with your money. That said I will give you my very humble opinion: Go have a look at those Tauruses, I don't poo-ppo that brand like some. If you like them then buy em. However I have always...

It's to prevent snagging on the draw, particularly for pocket carry. It's also an acknowledgement that in a defensive situation you are not going to be shooting single action anyways so a hammer spur is an extraneous feature. For deliberate, accurate fire the double action pull can be staged...
