    Adding a revolver to the mix

    I am an L frame guy from years past. That said I will add the new K frame model 19’s and 66’s have full diameter forcing cones so they won’t be worn out (even though few really did wear out the older ones) the new ones are stronger and have a stronger lockup as they use a ball end EMT and lock...

    Glock Upheaval: Rumors Fly on Discontinued Models, New info on V Series Guns

    I don’t get why everyone is mad! Glock like them or not didn’t get to be successful by being dumb. That said here’s some humor I’ve been busy having fun with

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    I just shot the new Taurus 66C combat ant Revolverfest and it’s pretty slick. You can’t go wrong with any K or L Frame size 3-4” for a range gun. By K and L frame I mean S&W or Ruger GP 100 (GP 100 and L frame take the same speedloaders) the Colts seem to be nice and of course Taurus is one...

    New Glock model, sort of....

    The Gen 5 17L was announced iver a year ago. With the popularity of MOS and red dot stuff it and the 34/35 sort of lost favor. When it was introduced this meme came out and made me laugh as that’s exactly what you think of

    A McMess at a McDonalds in McPolk county Florida

    Am I the only one that thought “Minor gunshot wind and to the neck” is understating the incident

    S&W 686-6

    Thanks for having a respectful conversation. No matter what camp you favor shot placement trumps everything. As far as bullet performance I am not basing my thoughts on any thoery I am basing it on the aftermath of real shootings I have seen, or survivor cops I have talked to. Mi (believe it...

    S&W 686-6

    We are not talking steel. The person posting the treated mentioned specifically the 637 which is an alloy frame exposed hammer version of the 442. I am only seeing a coulle YouTube channels that do a 5 round test everyone else base their success or fail option on what one round does. Lucky gun...

    S&W 686-6

    There are only a couple rounds that reliably perform in gell out of snubs. And most folks in YouTube while well intentioned are basing their findings in 1 round, shoot a 5 rounds sample and hih will maybe get one round that performs out of a snub (and I have shot gel with Chuck Haggatd) are...

    40 caliber Prodigy

    The positive side effect of the 30 Super Carry is all the 32 call bullets made going into 32 H&R and the like for us revolver nerds. Just in time for the intro of the S&W 32 H&R UC snubs and Ruger LCR’s…. So to me good timing!

    Ruger Introduces the Marlin Trapper Model 1894 in 10mm Auto

    A lot of 10mm fans don’t know it care they have anemic ammo compared to the Norma 10mm of the 89’d. And those that are a little too pro 19mm have to point out BB or Double Tap which like uiu mention is difficult to get for some folks OR some don’t mess with ordering ammo they want to be able...

    40 caliber Prodigy

    The only market left would be USPSA Limited for 40. And nobody runs 10mm there. Limited and 40 cal s almost dead in USPSA as it is in LE circles.. Carry Optics and several other divisions have made the 40 obsolete with quadruple the participants. So that said I’d really be surprised if they did...

    S&W 686-6

    L frame s&W’s (586/686) are solid revikvers. I still have one that I ran as a duty gun years ago. At Revolverfest last weekend I ran some rounds through the Lipseys 686 plus mountain and that is very slick. As well as the S&W bay a Model 19 no lock and 640 pro. The thing with snub revolvers...

    Unlocking The Future: Smith & Wesson's "No Lock" Revolvers

    While the Clinton meeting gets a lot of blame S&W was owned by Safe T Hammer and the locks were already planned. But I get it it wasn’t aesthetically pleasing. I shot the new Model 19 classic no lock at revolverfest on industry day. VERY accurate. There isn’t anything wrong with 2 piece barrels...

    The Grandfather of Modern 10mms

    There is a lot of opinion the FBI “whimpped out” but that wasn’t the case. There isn’t any mortal man here that would be able to run full power 10mm through a S&W 1076 in a 5,000 round academy and NOT have issues. The other issue was the gun failed them as much as the full powered ammo. And...

    My First Revolver

    At Revolverfest this year one of the options was a Single Action revolver class from Lew Gosnell (Lew is a Gunsite instructor) I didn’t go to his class but am pondering it next year as he got a lot of rave reviews. I’m in the process of writing an AAR on Revolverfest when I catch up just got...

    Glock Heavy Loads

    The Glocl 20 slide was over built to compensate for original 10mm Norma velocities. If you noticed the Glocl 41 has the same slide width as a 9mm slide because the 45 doesn’t have to have the slide mass. I also will say this as a Hlock armorer that worked and saw a lot of 10mm and 40 call Gkick...

    SA .40 S&W

    The small internal changes (thwre were 27 between the Gen 4 and Gen 5) are huge for an agency that maintains a fleet of guns. While no Gkicks are hard to fix or replace parts the Gen 5 has made a simple platform even better. No S spring to have to worry about breaking, with discontinuing the...
