    Anyone here have any experience with one yet?
  2. I posted a video here a few years back that was really too dark to see. I shot a new one this weekend. I hope this helps some people. One more note that I should have mentioned when filming. If your pistol still has a magazine disconnect, then you will need to reinsert your magazine when pulling the trigger. Otherwise, the hammer won't move where you need it to.
  3. You folks have any experience with one? Been looking around and can't seem to find one to handle.

    Sig P250-22

    I picked up one of the P250-22s that CDNN has on special right now. Took it to the range today and split time between that and my MkII 22/45. I was surprised that I was almost as accurate with the Sig as the Ruger*. The only problem I had was repeated failures to feed, mostly from the same one of the two mags, and only with Federal .22lr. CCI MiniMags worked fine every time. Next time I'll bring along some Remington and whatever else I can find to try, after a thorough clean & lube. I've already given in to temptation and ordered the 9mm X-Change kit, which was another $300 + shipping. I'll be curious t see how it does. Ammunition sensitivity in a .22 is par for the course, but I've never heard anything bad about the center fire versio. And yes, I know, all the cool kids have moved to the P320. But the price was right, and so far it's an enjoyable range toy if nothing else *Let's be clear: almost as accurate is still bad. I'm a mediocre shot, mainly because I can't seem to manage getting to the range much more than quarterly. I'm hoping to better that this year.
  5. I want a revolver that will be used only for hunting. I am limiting my choices to either a 460 S&W Mag or 500 S&W Mag. I currently have a BFR with 7.5" barrel in 500 S&W mag. The other gun I am considering is a S&W 460 XVR. My BFR is not set up to take a scope. So my choices are either have the BFR drilled and tapped for a scope or sell it and get 460 XVR. Thoughts or opinions?

    Bedside Safe

    Thinking about picking up one of these... Any of you guys have one? Thoughts? Feedback? https://www.amazon.com/Gunvault-SpeedVault-SVB500-gun-safe/dp/B006OGNLKA/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1493995017&sr=8-5&keywords=fingerprint%2Bhandgun%2Bsafe&th=1
  7. I am a tried and true Glock convert, with that said I found a great deal on a M&P .45 compact, so I bought it, took it to the range, and I hate this pistol!! Well not really the gun itself. It's the trigger, this thing has so much play in the pull and no feel on the reset. IDK if it's just that I am so use to my G30 or what? Anyone else have this problem? I've never had a trigger job done on one of my guns but seriously thinking about it on this one, and recommendations would be appreciated.
  8. A friend of mine gave me this revolver since it looked like it was too far gone to consider any kind of repair cost. The hammer & trigger spring was shot along with all the other springs. Cylinder timing was toast. After looking it over, I found it had a bore that was incredibly nice and the cylinders chambered up the 32-20 rounds nicely as that was one of the calibers these were popular in. Well between those 2 things, I thought I'd have at it. The internals were more Colt than S&W but the V spring looked like a 12 year old make it from scratch. The lock work had no provision to rebound the firing pin back into the safe position with the trigger let off. So, since I had a pair of new S&W M+P hammer & trigger in the drawer, I decided to do a S&W lock work transplant. The frame needed to be drilled for a trigger rebound slide spring post that would get welded in and the frame needed to have a notch cut for a S&W hammer spring along with a D&T for a strain screw. The rest was tweeking the frame and cylinder star after replacing all the springs. Here is the challenge S&W parts The original lock work Here the S&W parts are in place All the screws were so badly buggared up I ground out the driver slots, mig welded them up and recut a new screw driver slot in all the frame screw heads Now the BIG disappointment. After getting the action to work exactly like a basic S&W M10, I found the 32-20 were all key holeing the target! I guess that's what happens when you shoot a 312 bullet in a 329 bore! The gun is actually a 8mm Lebel M94 cartridge. You can see the fire formed casings in this shot After all this work, My friend wants to buy it back......... Off it goes! What are friends for?
  9. Posting some info on New Glock Gen5 after talking to a Glock Factory Rep Today,not trying to turn this into a I hate/Love Glock thread. Was told the new features will include a match grade bbl&trigger and longer recoil spring to cut down recover time.They will also have flared magwell and no finger groves. He said they are going to let FBI and Indy IN get the bugs out before sale to public,said some Indy PD are able to hit steel plates at 100 yds every shot. Kidded him that Glock equipped most every PD in Nation with .40 and now will have them going to 9mm ** Marketing Genius** Price is to be same as Gen4 And Glock has lawsuit on Army Trials on Sig as they did not have to go through testing. I may get a 19 and have always liked Sig 229 and Beretta 92FS
  10. Now that the law is defined, who makes the best arm brace for a Draco? If you have one pics are appreciated.....
  11. For sale is a Glock 23 .40 cal with the lasermax laser. The laster is internal replaces the spring. If you have seen one glock you have seen them all. It has adjustable factory sight. Im not interested in separating at this point. It does require some disassembly to remove the laser. Lowest new price for this set up I've seen is: Glock 23 $502 and the lasermax $249 plus tax and registration which would be around $835. Price is $625. If your thinking of buying a new one this one is basically the same not a lot of rounds through it.
  12. Does anyone know if this is were I can renewal my carry permit in Oakland, TN. Oakland Drivers Services Center 160 Beau Tisdale Dr. Oakland, TN 38060 Thanks
  13. I am wanting to pick up a .22LR pistol. I would prefer to go with a 3 inch or less revolver. I am having a hard time finding one that is not a RG (or similar quality ), a H&R (or similar) antique, or just as expensive as a .38. I also want to avoid the mini revolvers like the NAA models. I may have to settle for a semi, but thought I would ask first. So any suggested models? Just in case if you have a recommendation for a semi, toss it in too. Thanks guys and gals.
  14. Well, I'v been wanting one of these for a few years and finaly did it on Gun Broker. Oddly, I was the only bidder on the $300 auction with $15 to ship and my dealer here gets $25 to make it happen so it comes to $340 OTD so to speak on this Stoeger import. Any one know when Stoeger dropped the Uberti Stallion line? The gun was advertised as new old stock but it did look like it had a cylinder or so fired threw it. The colors are really nice on this particular gun along with the over all fit & finish. I do need to do a little work on the trigger since its a tad creepy and its only 1.5 lbs away from a Bang! This is the first 30 rounds fired at 40 feet off a rest. If not for the one flyer (me), its holding 1.5". I'll tune the sights in better but now I'm after a Mag cylinder and then I'll decide on any sight mods. The second pic puts the Stallion along my JP Sauer 44mag. Great guns with about as close to Colt fit & finish as your going to get without Colt stamped on the barrel.
  15. Heads up Guns & Leather in Greenbrier has Berretta APX and Canik SF in stock. The APX felt good in my hand and of course everyone in the store said it was a good shooter. Comes with 3 mags. $509 and change before taxes and back ground check. They also have the Canik SF in stock, did not get the price since I have a SF Elite. Both pistols are black in color.
  16. Thinking of taking advantage of the Smith & Wesson rebate on the shiel. Who's got the best price out there? I see Guns and Moore in Smyrna for 309 but that's a little bit of a drive for me. anybody in the Nashville /North Nashville area close to the same price? 319 or so?

    New Micro gun?

    I have gun money burning a hole in my pocket and just can’t find anything to buy. Don’t you hate it when that happens? One thing I have kinda thought about is a micro gun. I have never pocket carried and probably never would. But if I wanted something really small what would you recommend? I already have a Kahr MK40 (Good size but heavy) and a Shield .40 (Nice, but not really small), a S&W Model 36 (not really looking for revolvers). My requirement has always been .40S&W, if I went down to 9mm would it open up any good options?
  18. Just picked up my first 1903. These are cool little guns. This one was made in 1913. Not bad looking for 104 years old. The 1903 is a .32. The 1908s, which look the same, are .380. I will probably end up getting one of those also. The slide is tight and a little sticky. I need to stip it and give it a good cleaning and then off to the range.
  19. Looking at the Colt website it was made in 1918. The brown spots on the front of the gun appear to be something like shellac and not rust.

    S&W help

    My friend (who is not a gun guy but likes guns) just bought some from an elderly acquaintance. One is a full sized, pre lock Smith, 4" barrel, full shroud, beautiful factory "target-like" grips, adjustable rear sight. I thought it was 686 or equivalent. Until I saw it chambered in .22LR I've never seen it's like, any idea what model it could be and value? It is too clean to have more than 100 rounds through it.
  21. Just sent off my 75B Omega off to David and his team. My buddy used them and was pleased. CGW is the only one obviously advertising specialty Omega work as compared to Automatic Accuracy or CZC. $31 via UPS, second day air. Machined parts for a work bench. I spoke to David prior to; he talked about quality, attention to detail and providing what the customer is expecting. Honest too, "we make sure your gun is right before it leaves, but sometimes they have to come back." 6-8 week lead time. The cool thing is David sends a second mail after your initial inquiry; they manage accepting new work to deliver the finished product in a reasonable amount of time. It also helps them stay focused on the work on the bench vs. a huge back log of guns waiting to get on the bench. Second email received with clear instructions on how to ship, David includes a copy of his FFL so you know he's legit in the eyes of the BATFE. They received my gun on Friday and I received an email notification (as promised) Having no cosmetic work, only visible difference will be a new hammer vs. the OEM ring hammer.
  22. I am wanting to give one of my handguns to my father-in-law, who lives in Georgia. I want to make sure that we cross every "t" and dot every "i" legally in the process. Can we simply meet up at an FFL in Georgia and do the transfer there? Or does it have to involve an FFL on my end here in Tennessee as well? Thanks!
  23. I really wanted the compact when I bought my subcompact but am happy with purchase, but I would like to get some after market sights to help out a little. Has anyone else here changed out their sights yet? I understand most stock sight tools wont work for the rear sight on this model of gun, has anyone run in to that issue? For those that have changed out the sights what did you end up upgrading to on your gun, and has anyone bought the upgrade kit yet to a larger size? Thanks Ron

    Taurus PT111 Millennium G2 For sale. Like New Condition with box and manual. Purchased in Feb 2017. Taken to the range once, fired about 225 rounds of various FMJ and JHP ammo. All ammo ran flawlessly. The gun was surprisingly accurate but the trigger bit my finger more than I was comfortable with. None of the You Tube reviews mentioned anything about this so I guess I was the odd man out on this. Anyway, I'd rather sell it and get something that doesn't pinch my trigger finger. $180 + bill of sale to TN resident and DL or Carry permit.
  25. Nevrmind… back up to $700 now. Thought I was really going to take a bath on mine if I decided to sell it; but either some folks got a heck of a deal or it was a misprint.
