My lgs has a used BPS security shotgun in 95% or better condition. Stock is synthetic. Barrel is 20 inches cylinder bore. These shotguns are seldom seen as few were made. Price is $250. They will...

I examined a new stainless Taurus with a 3 inch barrel. Sitting in my chair at the lgs, I spent 20 minutes trying to find something wrong with this damned Taurus. I failed. It was perfect in every...
I examined a new Python at my lgs. In this specimen the action was outstanding. However, at the muzzle I saw numerous deep tool marks which indicated reamer chatter. Polishing would not remove these....
They don't care. Nobody cares. The driver lost somebody's truck and trailer. He's a dead man.
Lon, you are in the 99th percentile of police officers in this nation. You have worked hard to maintain your status.
I bought a 3000 and followed factory break in suggestions. My young friend ran 100 rounds of heavy loads through the gun. We cleaned it and proceeded to shoot "everything" through it. The 3000 feeds...
The hand may have been slipping over(by moving backwards)one of the ratchets, and this hand position then caused the problem you discovered. My guess is that the dealer was unaware of the issue....
I disagree about the premise of the thread. RJ joined the discussion post number 23. Despite being a nice guy, he did not establish the thread's theme. To use his term, he "jumped in".
Logic rules out the .45 ACP round for most of us. Knowledge members made the case. During the last 35 years reliable 9mm pistols and effective defense ammo have become available. In recent...
Of course not. Had I stated it better, I would have said that many of us lack skills to defeat an opponent in grappling contest. Though you inferred that I implied it was a collegiate contest, such...
Being too old to be taken seriously, I would prefer a heel magazine release such as seen on P-38's and other handguns.
This type fails less frequently compared to push button types. Also, they may...
Central Texas has become a shooting gallery. Killeen, home of Ft Hood, is constantly in the news for its shootings. In Waco there have been numerous murders this year. In the Central Texas shootings...
Sight pushers are expensive. Do you have a local dealer? Start there.
Metallurgy has everything to do with a handgun's ability to handle pressures and not necessarily thickness of the cylinder or chamber as in the case of pistols. Of course, both are variables. In...
I had to quit reading this stuff about empty chambers and police officers and l.e. academies. The adult males in my family insisted that I carry my 1911 with an empty chamber. When I decided to shoot...
Now that Taurus has improved quality, has anyone dealt with their customer service? I wonder if they pay the freight both ways and have a reasonable turn around time. I do hope they continue to sell...
My two original issue LCP's did that. I replaced the recoil spring with a heavier one as I shoot Buffalo Bore so called +p ammo in them. Heavier springs resolved the issue and made the little pistols...
For purpose of argument, a short leade can cause plunk failure. Leade is the distance between end of chamber and beginning of rifling. So a chamber could have oversize dimensions and a short leade....
Good point. The duty aspect escaped me.
Would not single loading by hand one round into the chamber and then slowly lowering the bolt accomplish chambering the round without dimpling the primer? The forward assist could be used. The AR'e...
Google will give you their phone number. Their website has a form to complete and then send. This may be the only method that they use to communicate. I would send it back with a copy of the...
Any folks here driving cars with diesel engines? Have they served you well?
My mechanic's shop works on a large number of older vehicles made in the last 15-20 years. Frequently he is faced with parts unavailability. Further, he said that dealer shop guys know little about...
My 2019 Tacoma has 17000 miles and has had 4 oil changes at the dealer. The first change was at 700 miles to remove any minute metal junk let loose during these miles. I go by old break-in rules even...
On 1911's and other pistols I would put the round into an empty mag and after pulling back the slide, I would let the slide ease forward and pick up this one round in such a way the extractor engaged...
