That's a great price!! Where did you find it? Have been swamped with work lately, so haven't had much time to put into this decision. Still find it hard to be the value equation of the big Springers. They're pretty available, since everyone seems to only be interested in sub-compacts and...

Howdy all, considering this new-ish Springer. Anybody have one and shot it enough to provide a recommendation; pro or con??

Howdy again all, appreciate your input. One thing I'll reinforce is that this isn't just a "bedside" gun, it would be a be used whenever I needed a large capacity pistol to back up a rifle/shotgun in the gravest extremes. Thus, my interest in the XDM elite with light and dot capabilities and...

Howdy all, hope you are well and staying safe in these crazy times. The good part about the insanity going on just now, (plus the extra time away from the office) is that's it's caused me to actually start focusing on my "Philosophy Of Use" for the things that I own. I've always "kinda" thought...

Ok, to set the stage, I'm a cranky old fart. I've always been a 1911 guy, and it was my EDC for many years. Even if I know I don't need any more of them, I'm drawn like a bug to light to the counter where the 1911's are. BUT, I bought a couple of Glocks many years ago when they were new and...

What was his argument/proof/facts that the online trusts "won't hold up in a real court"? Either it's legal or it's not. Does he specialize in firearm trust work?

Walther PPKs, hands down. Bought it when I lived in Detroit, where ya pretty much better be armed all the time. Great little carry gun, but HATED shooting it. Snappy, kinda painful with the super thin backstrap, not terribly reliable, and bit the heck out of the top of my hand. Sold it for a...

Smith 686 - 4 inch barrel. Best "every day" revolver I've ever owned, and I've owned quite a few. For some reason, I decided I needed to sell it to buy a Colt King Cobra. No idea why, since I already had a Python. The Smith was a much more rugged, accurate gun. I'd buy another if I could find a...

We did a big remodel a couple of years ago, and I took that opportunity to put in a bunch of smart switches and outlets. I chose the Wink hub - not sure it was the best choice, but it's working ok. LOVE the ability to program and control the lights, inside and out with an app on my phone. No...
