Well, I thank you all for the advice, but since I have been shooting for 75 years and not shot myself (or anyone else) I feel qualified to ignore it.:cool:

Thanks to all for your input....:cool:
OK, here is the reason that I want a grip sleeve, even if it defeats the grip safety:
This gun was purchased primarily because of the delayed blow back system that it employs. I was curious about...
Well you know, there are pistols made that do not have safetys on them in the first place? If it was a PD gun, certainly I would't modify it in any way, but since it is not....
Why?
Is it ridiculous to put a grip sleeve on a pistol that has a narrow and slippery grip?
Oh, I know that it would defeat the grip safety, but you can be sure that this gun will not see...
I use the Hoague grip sleeves on the LCP and the LCPs and find them to be a good add-on to these smaller grips. Now I want to put one on the R 51, but I don't know which one to buy, since nobody...
Yesterday I bought 200 rounds of Winchester 115 gr. 9mm at Meijers for $39.99.
It came in the form of 2 boxes, each of which contained 100 loose rounds. The boxes were white for whatever that...
I have chronographed nearly everything I shoot for the past 25 years. Velocity variations occur from gun to gun and even from day to day when using the same gun and load.
The last little...
Here is a video showing how CCI makes .22 rimfire ammunition.

I think the LC380 is a locked breech design.
The Ruger LC9s is available in 380 as the LC380. This gun is easy to handle, light weight and reasonably priced. The .380 is considered marginal for PD, but with the development of better bullets,...
I have been carrying a little .380 as a PD gun and have always considered the .380 marginal at best.
Now about 18 months ago I bought some ARX ammunition manufactured by Polycase. I did a milk...
Thanks for that. Those are problems that I would find hard to live with.
I was thinking of maybe a barrel for the TC contender, since I have one of those, but if handloading is a problem, I think...
My interest stems from curiosity and the fact that it deviates from the norm.
Actually, as a handloader, I am more interested in it's potential accuracy and it's value as a small game hunting...
Does anyone here have experience with this caliber and gun? This is another one that has piqued my curiosity. :confused:
After considering it, I decided to pass on this one. The only reason I was thinking about it is because of the type of mechanism that it employs. If it was a $400 gun, I would probably buy one just...
Midway has them for the same price.

I just watched 3 videos on Bond Arms' web site regarding the new (for them) Bullpup 9MM.
It is worth a look-see.

With the Redhawk in .44 Mg., I can keep my shots in 6" at 100 yds. This is with a scope on the gun, since my eyes are not what they once were.
I have been shooting a handload in my CZ 75 B.
It features 6.2grs. of AA5, a 125 gr. HAP bullet and a CCI 550 primer OAL 1.075", all in a Federal case. Velocity averages right at 1125 and...
Do any of you guys have this new Remington R51?
I bought one a couple of weeks ago, mostly because of curiosity about the operating system. It is pain to dis-assemble and re-assemble, but once...
