Re: Do you reload more in the winter or summer?

Re: Looking for manufacture date for a S & W

The owner doesn't care about selling as it's obviously not worth much. He's more interested in finding the date of manufacturer so he can figure out which relative probably owned it.

The picture I...

Re: Opinions sought, Kimber vs Springfield

I have owned both of the pistols you are considering. I traded the Kimber away and have long been sorry I did. It was a fine pistol.

I believe that the Springer is probably a better value and...

Re: Off Topic Pooter Question.

I have a desk top with XP Pro running Goggle Chrome and it's very stable and fast.

My lap top came with Win. 7 and it's also very good. The only problem with Win.7 is that it doesn't support all...

Re: whats your opinion?

I would guess that the number is well below 1% of total gun owners. The NRA says that there are firearms in way over 50% of American homes and I doubt that the number of re-loaders is in the 40-50...

Re: Looking for opinions

I agree with the above...... the XD is a fine gun and with the pre-cocked stricker it will have afar superior trigger pull than the other pistol under consideration.

I've shot my TM in IDPA & USPSA matches for several years. It's been very accurate and 100% reliable.

Re: I Collect And Shoot 22 Revolvers!Here are My Favorites So Far

If you can pick up a S & W model 63 you'll love it.

Target sights, light weight and stainless.

Too bad they aren't made any more.

Re: new concealed carry gun

I don't think the Kahr PM-9 can be beat as a hideout gun with enough power to serve as a daily carry gun.

I put night sights on mine and had the grip stippled for a rougher grip and think it's a...

Re: Carry permits/licenses from multiple states?

IMO---The only "tight" sources are the www sites of the State police or attorney general of the state where you wish to carry.
