  1. i want a lcp2...for the trigger...my lcp1 pinches my hand/finger + the pull is very long...I have a large hand. If I don't find a used one in a month or so I guess I will buy a new one. About $300 out the door (no a laser). Do you guys think a laser is worth the extra cost? TMc
  2. I am looking to buy one...I have a LCP (first Edition) Just want to upgrade to an LCP II. I guess a good used one is hard to find. I can buy a new one for about $300 out the door without a laser.
  3. Can anyone tell me what a good used Ruger LCP II is worth...With &/or with out laser. I live in the Paris Landing Area.
  4. I have been looking for a KT sub 2000 and I have called lots of gun shops in West & Middle TN. A couple told me that they did not fool with Kel Tec...said they were lots of trouble. One guy said they are made to shoot about 500 rounds and then fall apart. I have done lots of research on the internet re: the KT 2000 and all of the reviews have been very positive. However, none have mentioned the expected life of a KT 2000. I value your opinion and I will appreciate any thoughts, ideas or information you might have. tmck
  5. Many thanks guys...lots of good info. I guess I am leaning to the KT Sub. Mags are not a real concern to me...I am a "Ruger Man" & my 9's are a P95 and a SR9C. That said , I do like the high cap Glock mags for the KT. I have my name on several waiting list for the KT Sub. But, I might me interested in a good used one. Thanks again, tmck
  6. Hi, I am wanting to get a 9mm carbine. I have been reviewing the Kel Tec Sub 2000 9mm and the Hi Point 9mm carbine. I can get a Hi Point for about $100 less than the KT. Thoughts and Ideas will be appreciated. Thanks, tmck

    RUGER LCP PROBLEM

    Peejman, Thanks for the great ideas...can I change the spring or should I send it back to Ruger? TMc
  9. I have owned and been shooting an LCP over 2 years and have had no problems until recently. I have been doing a lot of "point shooting" an 10-20 ft. No problem with my two hand grip...but about a month ago I started drawing my LCP from my right pocket and as quickly as possible using a one hand grip... most of the time when I fire my right thumb inadvertently bumps the mag. release button and it drops down about a 1/4" and I have a fail to feed. I am afraid if I ever get in a "real" hurry-up situation I will end up with a single shot LCP. No problem with my two hand grip or my left hand grip. Since the LCP is my "carry everywhere gun" I am positive my first emergency impulse will be to pull and fire a right hand only shot. Any thoughts or ideas will be greatly appreciated. TMc

    RUGER SR9c

    I have been on 4 gun shops waiting lists for over 4 months for a Ruger SR9c. No body seems to know anything about when the pistol will be available in West TN. Does anybody know anything. Thanks, TMCK
  12. Any idea when they might be coming out? Price? I am on a waiting list at my gun shop, but they had no idea when or for how much. TMCK
  13. J Thanks...she also has an Air Weight Smith in her purse with +P's. I carry an LCP for my everywhere gun. I guess I will keep it for a spare. I really hate to sell a gun during these times. TMCK
  14. My wife can hardly pull the slide back on her LCP. Is there such a thing as a rubber grip or something to attach to the slide so she can pull it back without her hand slipping off. I am afraid if it jams on the first shot she will end up with a single shot LCP. Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated. TMCK
  15. I am looking for some .380 Federal Hydra Shok 90 gr. I live in the Paris, TN area and my son live s in Franklin, TN. Anything close to these areas would be great. TMCK
  16. Sounds like a plan... Many thanks, Tmck
  17. I am installing a mag. extention on my 870 and I can't get the magazine spring retainer to go into the extention. At the top of the magazine on the 870 is two little stoppers that stop the spring retainer from going through. I have thought about grinding the retainer down or maybe grinding the stoppers off. Any ideas on how to solve this problem. Thanks for any help, Tmck
  18. Yes...my son does live in TN...and thanks for the info. TMc
  19. I bought my wife a new Ruger LCP and she is not strong enough to move the slide back. She will continue to carry her S & W Air Weight. I want to give the gun to my son, who is 41 and does not live with us. Is there a form I need to have him sign to transfer the pistol to him?
  20. I have never shot the .40...what is the recoil compared to the 45 and the 9mm? In my opinion there is lots of difference in the recoil of the 45 and the 9 mm. TMc

    Ruger LCP .380

    I asked the gal at the gun shop, where I got my LCP and she said the pistols are hard to get and the clips are even harder to get. She did not have any idea when she would have some. TMc

    Derringer .22

    Guys, I have an old .22 cal derringer my grandfather had. He died in 1952, so I know it is old. I can't seem to find anything about it...maker, age, value, etc. It is 3 3/4" long, 2" high and has a 1" barrel. I think the handles are walnut (but not sure. The receiver appears to be brass. The only marking is "6468" (Iwould assume it's a serial number). I shot one .22 short in it about 30 years ago. (just to see if it would indeed shoot) If anybody knows anything about this gun I would appreciate any infomation I can get. BTW, I had 4 more pics, but could not figure out how to insert them. Thanks, TMc

    Ruger LCP .380

    Guys, I took the Ruger .380 for a test run this weekend. Our range is not open yet...I went to the gravel pits and popped 30 caps. Slow fire, rapid fire, aimed and from the hip and had no hang-ups or problems of any kind. Very little recoil and quite accurate at 10 yds. I shot 95 gr. FMC's. Very pleased overall. Fits in my jeans front or back pocket and even my shirt pocket. It will be my carry every where gun. At $265.00 I am glad I went with the Ruger LCP instead of the KalTec. I think my wife wants one now. Later, TMc

    Ruger LCP .380

    Hey guys, I got my Ruger LPC yesterday...have not had a chance to get it out yet...Rain, Rain, Rain. I did learn to tear in down and put it back together with no problems. The out the door price was $300.78...$264.95 (gun) + $25.83 (taxes) + $10.00 (transfer fee) = $300.78. This was at the Shooter's Sporting Goods in Camden, TN. They sell at 10% over cost to anyone. If it ever quits raining and I can get caught up on my crappie fishing I will give the .380 a try and I will give you a report. BTW, it fits good in the front pocket of my jeans...I think it will be a great carry anywhere gun. TMc
