      Next survival gun ($500)

      I acutally just sold my 870. I had it as a HD gun, but one day I realized that if I had that and my Taurus sitting next to my bed stand and someone was to break in, I would grab the 709. I never shot very well with the shotgun and couldnt get comfortable with it, and I know that I can put the...

      remington 597

      I just picked one up last week, I couldn't pass it up for the price ( $169.99 at Dick's, plus I had a $20 coupon). I've only shot about 50 rounds from the factory 10rd mag but didnt have any problems. cant comment on accuracy as I was using those 50rds to zero the scope that came with it, but...

      Center Balanced Systems (Bullpup stocks)

      Products Ran across this over at rimfirecentral of someone who did this build on their Remy 597 and thought it looked pretty BA. I'm debating doing it to mine or doing the mosin one ( I just cant stand the idea of a $300 stock on a $100 rifle). Anyway, pretty cool coversions for some...

      I'd go with the 4 .38's as it is the closest to a EDC load for me.

      Buck Knives

      Looked at a Taurus 709 Slim, and 738 TCP

      I have the pt709 and carry it every day. No mag problems with 350 rounds so far, very accurate for its size and I dont even notice it when carrying in a IWB tuckable. Only complaint so far is on the finish, I got the blued and it rusts like crazy, so i would reccomed spending the extra $20 for...

      PF9 or similar

      +1 on the Taurus 709 slim. I like it alot and it has the external saftey. I would recommend the stainless finsih if she plans on carrying it alot as I have had some rust issues with my blued slide, but from a firing and reliability stand point it has been fantastic.

      Ever had an intruder in your house/property?

      When I was 16 someone broke into our familys house at night. Our dog went crazy and I grabed my 8" hunting blade and just saw someone running out of our back door. I damn near ran my Dad through as he came around the other corner. Scared the Hell out of me, and taught me to always lock up, even...

      Rust on my new Taurus pt709! Help

Ive put 200 rounds down range with no problems and as it breaks in it keeps shooting better and better. It is my carry gun so I normally leave it in...

      Anyone Scared??

      I was just reading that India and Korea both just bought 100 tons of gold from the IMF to offset losses in the dollar, and that China will probably follow suit sortly. Rampent inflation is my biggest concern right now.
