    My M&P .22C is handy and reliable, but it is light, twitchy, and dinky.
    Similar to G44, Taurus, Sig, and Walther plastic .22s.

    A full size .22 from Browning, Ruger, or Smith is a lot easier to...

    I am sure you know that this is an unusual case of Remington starting with and making more .380s. The .32s are a lot less common.

    I am sorry I sold mine because it would not feed hollow points....

    A friend’s real WWII Mauser HSc .32 was reliable but had a notably tough DA. I don’t know about the post war commercials, I think made in Italy.

    Not a whole lot.
    One mug for breakfast, one at midmorning IF with friends, cola or iced tea for lunch. Half a bottle of green tea at supper, or decaf coffee.

    Tennessee Teachers

    A bill has passed - but not signed into law - to allow Tennessee School teachers to go armed.
    The Left Liberals and their Media Minions have of course gone into apoplexy.

    If a plain extractor double is all you have, it would pay to use CAS technique. SASS does not allow ejector doubles so we polish our chambers and learn to give the gun a jerk as it opens to flip the...

    I don't see a problem with the rear sight. How would you make it less "bulky" and still have it the right height?

    I don't know what you mean by "cut and reuse the left side manual safety."

    I had a Remington 1903 in a 1922 stock with Lyman sights faked up to look like a Springfield Sporter.
    For the usual reasons of "preference" it shot well with the 130 gr Speer varmint bullet.

    The key phrase is now "Compensated and ported barrels that are incorporated into the firearm."

    Fictional scene, but I think it applies:
    "Can you shoot somebody to protect your party?"
    "Yessir."
    "You answered that awful quick, Mr Renner."
    "Sir, I made up my mind on that a long time ago."

    But if you consider the age and installed base of some of the calibers above .30 SC, it doesn't seem so bad.
    At least .45 GAP isn't in the top 20.
