  1. There's a lot to like about that little pistol. How close is it to a Colt Gov't .380? Are good mags available?
  2. Thanks for checking! I suspected it wouldn't. There's a guy on this forum, around Nashville, that does custom leather. Maybe I can get him to make one. The waiting time for most custom leather is too long.
  3. Maybe my Valkyrie holster will work. The dust cover looks thicker. Have you tried any 1911 holsters?
  4. Yours looks in better shape than mine! Looks like a fair price, somebody jump on this!
  5. What holster are you using?
  6. Has anyone seen a DWX for sale? Especially a Compact? Are they vaporware?
  7. Will 7-round Colt Gov't .380 mags work in a 1908 Pocket Hammerless pistol? The 1908 mags are tough to find anymore. I have plenty of Gov't mags.
  8. Memphis turned really y after I left and Willie Herenton took over. I'd be looking at a place like Grand Junction and hope that's far enough that Memphis doesn't get there before you die.
  9. What is the latest situation on pistol braces? I think I've seen the Supremes are gonna hear the cade, but, currently, are they "legal". In quotes because the gov't decides what's legal and can change it like their diapers.
  10. If you have a TN ID and own property here, you're a TN resident. Don't tell everybody you like S&M. OTOH, a private sale is a private sale and requires no gov't involvement.
  11. I'll toss in the Beretta Serie 80 .380s. I have an 84BB and an 85BB. The 84 is a double stack and fits my hand so I shoot it better. BBs have a safety. Later models have a decocker. Ala Burger King, have it your way. Light Al frames make them easy to carry. Midsize so they conceal well. Too big for a pocket (XSP for that), though.
  12. I have a Valkyrie in .45. Wonderful pistol. Hard to miss with it. I would like a double stack 9 that's small-ish and light to avoid carrying a second mag. And I very much want to stay with cocked and locked so I don't have to think "which one do I have?"
  13. Anybody know if the DWX is more than vaporware? I'm about to give up. Is there an aluminum frame CZ 9mm without a decocker safety? It will surely save me money.
  14. I have as gun magnet in my RV, near the head of the bed to hold my Colt at night.
  15. Also, the bore is low, so muzzle flip is visibly less, even with a girl shooting it.
  16. The patina is great, even the faux patina on the trigger guard, if I'd earned it. Still has a Glock trigger and no safety. Wanted to reward Glock's innovation, but gave up after the second one. Bulging cases from my 22 did not instill confidence, either.
  17. I bought one and had to send it back. After I got it back, it has been excellent. I'd like another one. It IS a PITA to disassemble/reassemble to clean.
  18. So, now that is has passed the House and Senate, 2hat does the new law do to my HCP? How will I get reciprocity in states without permit less carry laws? Right now, my HCP covers me in most states but the blue coastal ones.
  19. I put in a bunch of these shelters at work before I retired. We used a 2-piece design, like a giant septic tank for 14 people with a door in each end. Make your doors open inward. Have 2 exits, on different sides, even if one is a 2' x 2' escape hatch. The doors should have 2 bars at 1/3rd points. You can build the top by making a ledge with a half-size 8" or 10" block for the last row. Use corrugated metal floor decking as a base and pour the lid in place. Tie rebar on a 10 to 12” grid and down into to the walls with a minimum of 3' lap splice. I'd use #3. I'd make the top 6" thick, so size the corrugated metal for that, or support well from the bottom until it cures.
  20. It will be considered primarily for EDC, but who knows, it might kill a can or 3. That was the reason for the weight limit. At 34 oz, I'll just carry one of my 1911s. Currently have plenty of 9mm for practice because of the FX-9 PCC. NOBODY ever has too much money, but I'll get by. Next month I'm down to a mortgage. Night vision, huh?
  21. I've decided to spend my stimulus check on a 9mm and ammo, but which one? I'd like a lighter compact with about a dozen rounds capacity, under 25 oz., Condition 1 carry is a big plus, polymer frames are OK, some striker-fired are tolerable, had 2 Glocks (and 2 too many), but I have a carbine that uses Glock mags, so a 19, if cheap might get it. I like the looks of a CZ 2075 RAMI, but can't find one to handle. What do you recommend?
