I love the .45 Colt in a revolver. I used a S&W 25-5 in that caliber for many years.'

As Margaret Thatcher famously said; The problem with Liberalism is that eventually you run out of other peoples money to spend.

Not for making legal to own firearms; he was making class 3 controlled firearms.

You need to know what to look for. Those have been faked, reproduced etc. I have a friend that collects Carbines and according to him assume it is fake until proven otherwise.

Shoulder Holsters have their place, It is excellent under a coat when driving, especially for long trips. There are other times it is a good choice but a waist holster either OWB or IWB is usually the better more comfortable choice.

Lobo Gun Leather. This one is an Original Lobo by Ray but I understand the current one from Minnesota are quite good.

while the Echelon etc are made in Croatia, the SA-35 is listed as made in USA and still has a 1/10 twist. I believe the SA-35 parts are obtained semi finished from Turkey and finish machined and assembled in Genesco, IL. I am assuming the barrels are semi finished and already rifled when they...

Now that makes sense. For some reason I thought that they (at least the SA-35) were made in house like the 1911's. I should have thought of that.

It was in the title. SA lists 1/16 in their 9mm 1911, For both 9mm and .45, They list 1/10 in the SA-35 and other 9mm autos. Why 16 in the 9mm and not the SA-35, Echelon etc. Wilson and Ed Brown also show 1/16 for their 9mm barrels (and .45's) It just seems odd that SA would use two...

I was just looking at the various SA offerings again and I noticed that SA lists a 1/10 rifling twist in the SA-35, Hellcat, Echelon etc BUT lists a 1/16 rifling twist for their 1911's. Any ideas why they are using a different twist in the 1911's that the SA-35 and others? I did send them a...

Those are nice. I used a Win 69 for a short time then a Win 72A for a longer time. Next came a 10/22 that got traded off and finally; the last .22 rifle I had was a Kimber of Oregon S-Series supergrade. That one got too valuable to shoot and went to a collector. My present .22 rimfires are a...

Why is there a 3 oz weight difference between a Ronin and a Garrison? Both full size 9mm; The Ronin lists at 41 oz while the Garrison lists at 38 oz. Both forged steel frame, slide and barrel. about the only big differences I see are the sights (Tac Rack and FO vs Novak 3 dot) and the...

Try calling them; if it hasn't been processed / shipped they may let you add it. Have your order no ready.

I received a pre-cut strip from a member of another forum. I trimmed slightly to stay away from the edge and put it on after an alcohol wipe down. Not a perfect job but good enough. I have changed my mind about grit tape on the front strap. It works, looks OK, is very functional AND the...

Folding, I have a variety of Traditional ones mostly Great eastern Cutlery, Pen, Jack, Lambsfoot that I rotate. I also always have a small Alox handle swiss army knife in my pocket.

I think you heard wrong. The Security / Service, Speed Six can have a very nice trigger pull. Mine is very good and totally factory. I do think that as a whole the S&W has a better average action on them. I like the S&W action better than a Colt's (but that is me) The GP-100 and SP-101 I am...

I am partial to the old Speed Six. This one is a .38 Special

124 Gr is all I use. I have found it to be the best all around weight.

"CBSA also said multiple firearms had duplicate serial numbers." ??? Duplicate or the same except for unique prefix or suffixes? If different models or manufacturers this could be possible with slight variations. Afterall some manufacturere have subscriptions.

I don't see much call to use heavier bullets as range ammo. 147 gr seems to me to be a specialized weight developed for sub-sonic results to still get adequate penetration. If you also carry your 9mm I suggest you practice with the same weight as your carry ammo. If it is pretty much range...
