I do have to be careful, because, well, Collectors Firearms is in nearby Houston, and, they have a lay-away plan. Someday, I would like to add a more-or-less birth-year SAA, which means...

I do have to be careful, because, well, Collectors Firearms is in nearby Houston, and, they have a lay-away plan. Someday, I would like to add a more-or-less birth-year SAA, which means...
The “Westerns” on TV did not influence my youthful mind to desire single-action sixguns and lever-action rifles, so, I was late in buying my first, which was a US Patent Firearms Single Action, in...

If one ALWAYS has a flagged thumb, covering the hammer, during the draw, and during reholstering, a modest-sized hammer spur is not an impediment. I am as likely to pocket carry my spurred SP101 and...
Not that I can recall. If so, not for about 50 years. I think that my mother may have bought something like that, for me, when I was a kid. I think it was a t-shirt, not a jersey.
We are well-set. The AR/M4 system is totally optional, for us. We have several, but do not “need” them.
Benelli M2, 12 gauge. (Have two, one with ghost ring sights. Realistically, I could get by,...
“Drop-in” barrels CAN require fitting. The “few” failures to go into battery reinforce this statement. Regardless, this adds a variable.
“USPSA Carry Optics” means that it is a match game/sport...
I never received a ballot, but, can hope that the reform candidates may get something done. (I am a Life Member, so should have received a ballot. I opted-out of receiving magazines, quite some time...
(Deep Sigh.) I keep telling myself, “Self, you have a bum “strong side” shoulder, and a retiree’s budget. NO swords. Pole arms, perhaps, but, no swords…”
Enjoy!
I am VERY envious of those who can run “up to the desert” for some shooting! No opportunities to shoot freely, more than a few rounds, on publicly-owned land, here in SE Texas. I can hunt,...
1. I cannot address lasers, based upon hands-on experience. I was not allowed to use lasers, on or off the clock, on firearms, while I worked for a PD. I have no idea how much light output any TRL...
Happy Pascha!
Yes, it is a shame that the owner of USFA seemed to have just stopped caring, and let USFA fall apart. The Standard is certainly well-fitted and well-finished. I have yet to shoot it.
Not Gray222, but, if “family members who aren’t familiar with shooting” will trigger-jerk the whole weapon off-target, without using a laser, they will trigger-jerk the whole weapon off-target while...
With that “Arthur I” thing starting to make itself felt, in the second knuckle of both of my trigger fingers, during my long-stroke double-action dry fire routine, well, single-action sixgunning is...
So. Very. Sad.
Rest in peace.
Further words fail me.
The BLR has a VERY complex bolt assembly. It received some early praise, for being AR15-like, in design, but design and execution can be different, in the real world.
The current Browning BLRs are Miroku-made. (Current meaning since some time in the Eighties, I would think.) Mine have only been lightly used, and only with .308 Winchester ammo, not 7.62 NATO, so, I...
Plus, my $0.02. Mine is actually a G19x, but, it has a G45 upper, that I bought already milled for an ACRO, so, is a half-G45.
Page Three, already, nobody has yet mentioned screwdrivers? Properly-configured screwdrivers are important! Click on the Brownells link, near the top of this page, and buy the correct screwdrivers.
Regarding the conceal-ability issue, I found that the G19 and G17 have been equally difficult to conceal, IWB and OWB. I have to drop all the way down to a “baby” Glock, to achieve noticeably better...
To correct one mis-statement, in my above-quoted previous post: Specified .40 S&W and 9mm Glocks were, quite simply, the least of four evils, among the duty pistols I was allowed to use, during a...
The slim-line 9mm Glocks use a different Recoil Spring Assembly. That is their weakness. HCM has witnessed a huge sample size, and has written of this, multiple times, in multiple discussion thread,...
Sad. Rest in peace.
The G19x was developed for submission for a US military pistol contract. Measurements for length and height were specified by the .gov/.mil. Simple as that.
For historic precedent, simply look at...
