I like my K6 snubby even more now. Would be cool if it already said "Troy, Alabama" on the...
Someone just mentioned bunny-fart .38 loads in another thread. It didn't match anything in an ammoseek search unfortunately. I am not sure what exactly they are, but pretty sure they are the best bet...
The 6 rounds on my hip as I sit here are a lot more than zero. In today’s world, walking around with 30 rds of 9 is not a bad idea. Every actual use of force event is a single instance where...
Interesting comments towards the end of the video about revolver reliability. Back when I bought my first pistol, a 1994 S&W Model 66, it was partially due to the perception even then that...
100% agree. Installed Control Core today, no more dangling pinky and a better grip angle. With large hands no more too-much-finger-through-the-triggerguard problem. Can’t wait to get it to the...
BTW the grasp second from the bottom with support hand thumb wrapped around the back is what did me in:

Thanks for the pic and info! Any comment on what holster you AIWB? Kydex offerings been slim for the K6s. I just got a Concealment Express yesterday, but I am not a fan of the lack of sweat guard.
medmo, so it sounds like you have had both the Control Core by Crimson Trace, and the Hogue grips? I had looked for a comparison. Are the Hogues significantly larger, side-by-side? I was...
I full well expected to carry the K6s with .38 Special +P. But I had to at least try out the .357, heck it said it on the barrel.
Hahahaha! Nope, I didn't do any flippy tricks before firing. But I also clearly did not know what I was doing (to myself). :p
Wow, I had seen people comment about a "stinger" or say their hand was sore the next day after shooting 357 Magnum from a small revolver. But my right hand near the base of the thumb is sore and so...
The USP has a convertible lever with a lot of options. Myself I prefer decock-only, no safety. The nice thing is in semi-auto handguns I have Beretta, and HK USP. So the lever setup I can rig to be...
My only plastic fantastics that really bring me joy of the gun are HK USP's. Not so much just in the hand, but when you start firing it, whooboy...that is what a firearm is supposed to be.

Thanks for everyone sharing the pics. It helped me to grudgingly agree that enclosed-hammer DAO must really be a good idea for a defensive carry revolver, seeing what folks who actually carry...
Just pulled out my GP100 4” and ran about 50 rounds of .357 through and a little .38. I swapped it years ago to the rubber grips with wood inserts. Nothing I don’t like about that gun. Only way I...
Wow! I’m not a big round-counter but much respect for the dedication and discipline it took to do this. Makes me feel pretty good about carrying one of my pair of Px4 Compacts. I doubt I will have...
At a good shop you should be ok, and also able to translate for yourself into DA/SA-ese. I took a class a few months back and was the only DA/SA in the crew, I mostly compensated on my own but to...
A Beretta 92. (To the OP’s question.)
92A1 shoots like an Italian 92, which it is. Specific to the OP’s question, its not a step down from the A3. The A3 is a Vertec, different grip/frame. Hold or ideally shoot both to decide, its a...
The 92A1 can shoot remarkably like the Elite LTT if you add a TJIAB, LTT grips, and same sights. It depends how far you need to take “two of the same”. But it is a shame to have that smooth rounded...
Find a different gunsmith. One who knows that Beretta sights in general and specifically the PX4 are very difficult to remove. Most likely a hammer and punch removal. And one who has a pro-level...
Rattle can paint no way, just creating a reason to later buy acetone.
If anyone in the class uses a revolver for their main carry and training weapon, pulling the trigger proves nothing other than one slot in the cylinder was not live. Yeah, I know it’s the Semi-Auto...
Preface my comments by saying I came up in the gun realm shooting revolvers in the woods so that probably affects my view a bit. DA/SA is a logical transition from a DA revolver.
Recently in a...
Yes! My Wing Claw 2.0 has the metal clips also, spread a little wider. Those clips are tenacious! That and the neoprene pad made a huge difference in stability and comfort over generic Kydex. It...
