      Your next handgun purchase?

      Gotta be a wheel gun. Shiny, long 357. It's art work that goes, "Boom!"

      Shoot Naturally

      I thank you, also, for sharing. Not only am I still being molded in technique, but I've got young'uns and really appreciate hearing how you approached this with your son.

      Taurus pt111 g2 rail

      Ah ha! Thanks! From Amazon I checked back with the crimson trace site. They have the rail masters too but the site is not helpful in getting you to applications for guns they don't build specifically for. Now I just need to lay down some thick hints with my son- in-law!

      Shield 9 = Low Left?

      I was sure my compact pistol was faulty. It drove me low and left and I looked like a doofus. I was over-thinking it. Best thing I did? I stopped anticipating the strike. When I let it "surprise" me a bit, i didn't over-control it. My gun was miraculously "fixed!" :)

      Taurus pt111 g2 rail

      I've been all over the crimson trace site and other carriers of ct. I don't see a hint of a laser or light. They're made for mil pro and older, but not for the g2 with a rail. If I've missed it please post a link. Thanks!

      Taurus pt111 g2 rail

      Sweet! Didn't know that little Taurus had made it to the big time to warrant Crimson Trace. I'll check it out. Thanks!

      Taurus pt111 g2 rail

      When Taurus redesigned their compact 9mm, the pt111, they tucked a short bit of rail under the barrel. When it came out last year there were no lasers or lights to fit. Now I can find some cheaper ones that claim to work. Has anyone successfully incorporated a laser and/or light to a pt111 g2?

      Ruger being forced out of CA due to microstamping

      Ok, folks. Time out for the ignorant among us (me!) What is "microstamping?" And then, in the event that it won't be obvious... how is it bad?

      Bed Side Holster A Bad Idea

      Because I saw it in a movie, I'm sure it's a realistic idea (implied sarcasm): How about a strong magnet under the bed frame holding the gun? Other than polymer, stainless not attracting and potential scratches... Does this idea have a chance?

      Stainless vs Blued

      Sweet! .02% of firearm knowledge is locked in! Rounding off a bit... I've only got about 100% to go! :)

      Dear trainers: The cost of the NRA *Basic* Pistol course is too damn high!

      I see education as an investment. It's the less-tangible part of the package. The price has an valuing effect on me. It it were too cheap, I might consider it "disposable." But at the price of tuition, rounds and gas... Well... I'm gonna place my training in higher esteem.

      Short barrel = short power?

      Ha ha....at 12 ounces I can see me shooting once then having to turn around and find where it landed! :)

      Stainless vs Blued

      So... functionally there's no difference. Stainless if I like shiny or will be around moisture, blued for less flashy and greater resistance to scratching (and typically cost less.) Am I missing anything? :)

      16 gauge shotgun: Beta vs VHS

      My son-in-law recently got himself a nice set-up for clays with a 20 ga and so I was compelled to dust the 16 off and try to remember which end to hold. I had NO problem finding cheap shot for it. (apparently no one is hoarding 16 gauge)

      16 gauge shotgun: Beta vs VHS

      Wow, that's quite a comprehensive list. Thank you for your reflection on this. What scares me is that it makes sense. So as long as I don't think too hard about it, I can just shoot an occasional clay or frozen pond with it and be happy! :)

      16 gauge shotgun: Beta vs VHS

      So recoil is not the issue it used to be? Are loads different? Or padding? When I was younger, dad's 12 could put me on my can.

      Stainless vs Blued

      So you prefer blued? Sounds like you'd reserve stainless for wetter conditions and use blued when you can. You mention colt/smith deep blue... is this a preference based on tradition, authenticity and the like...or is there something related to performance with a blued gun?

      Stainless vs Blued

      Is there something liquid to "paint" over? And when it corrodes...rust? I didn't realize stainless is less durable.

      16 gauge shotgun: Beta vs VHS

      Growing up, dad and big brother used 12 gauge for bunnies. Dad got me a 16 gauge single-shot H&R so I could tag along. I've never been proficient with it. Now as I look at guns I see 12's and 20's and 4-10's... Is 16 gauge the ugly step child? There are rounds available for it, so it must not...

      Stainless vs Blued

      I've got a Taurus semi-auto with a blued slide. Not much to look at. I'm impressed with the looks of revolvers. they seem as much like art as a weapon. Stainless looks most impressive to me. Blued...so-so. Dad has a Ruger gp100, blued. Sharp, but... Is the finish in the eye of the beholder...
