      Input please…..

      My Springfield XD45, Mod. 2 with the 5" barrel has a very decent trigger action, hold 13 rounds and is available with an Optics-ready slide and Picatinny accessory rail. Another option would be the CZ P10 .45 in either C or F configuration. I own their 9x19 F model and it's trigger is VERY good...

      Travel/Truck gun

      I'm a Certified Geezer, so my go-to pair is a Dan Wesson M15-2, 4" and my beloved Timberwolf .357 pump carbine. Works for me. YMMV.

      Show and Tell

      Old favorites: EAA Witness 9x19. The "Wonderfinish" is (I think) hard chrome. Had it for nearly 30 years and it's proved to be accurate, durable and about as reliable as gravity. Norinco ATD .22 copy of the Browning. Bought dirt cheap ($35) in Like new condition. Converted to Left Hand with...

      An Overdue Discussion on .45 Auto

      I've had a "thing" for the .45 ACP ever since being introduced to it at GLNTC in 1965. Currently, I have 2 Springfield 1911's ('Loaded' model GM in SS; SS Champion); a Smith & Wesson 4586; a CZ 97B; a Springfield XD45 'Tactical'(5" bbl.) and a Smith & Wesson 625-4. Ammo is no problem as I've...

      Air rifle for squirrels

      My old RWS Diana M48 side-cocker springer .22 has got us a LOT of dinners over the years. Squirrels and cottontails taken cleanly out to 40+ yards. Only downsides are weight (about 8# with scope) and a pretty stout cocking effort. Accuracy is stellar and build quality 1st rate.

      Potential Senate Agreement on New Gun Law

      Might want to check again. Todd Young just stuck his knife into our backs.

      S&W 3rd Gen Semi Autos

      Only have these three S&Ws presently: 625-4 (Trausch grips); 4586 LEA trade-in from Idaho; 640-1 .357. The 4586 is the easiest DAO semiauto to learn to shoot well with that I've ever owned. Accurate, ultra-reliable and built like a bank vault. Wouldn't swap it for diamonds

      Your Favorite cheap Handgun that everyone else thinks is Junk and makes fun of.

      This one. My old EAA Witness that I bought for $225 LNIB at Bradi's about 30 years ago. Over 7K rds. now and still hits right on POA and remains as dead-nuts reliable as gravity. NO malfs with any brand or weight of factory ammo I've used and only three with some crappy gun show reloads. Only...

      Marlin 1895

      I have a very early production 1895G with the ported barrel that I purchased NIB at an Indy 1500 show for $450.00, OTD. Times surely have changed, eh? FWIW, I actually prefer it to my '60's vintage 336 in .35 Remington. Using Federal 300 gr. JHPs at approx. 1700 f/s the 95G gives my ancient...

      Plastic Gun Show-N-Tell

      My current line-up of drastic plastic. I'm a relatively recent convert to the concept but coming to appreciate the advantages more on a near-daily basis. Clockwise from top: Springfield XD45 Mod.2 , 5"; CZ P10 F with Hogue Beavertail Hand All grip sleeve; Kel-Tec P32 with Hand All; Taurus G2c...

      Mini-30

      I've had my stainless 189 series Mini 30 for over twenty years now. Had the occasional misfire with Chinese/Russian steel cased ammo (which I bought by the 1/4 pallet back when it was dirt-cheap) at first. Swapped the hammer spring for an extra power Wolff unit and haven't had any since. Am in...

      Handgun Show-N-Tell

      My new favorite full-sized 9x19. CZ P10F in FDE. 19+1 capacity, and factory tritiums. Added the Hogue Handall Beavertail grip sleeve because it helps keep my arthritic fingers from 'locking-up' when applying maximum gripping force.

      WTB: Ambi thumb safety for "small frame" EAA Witness

      Probably in vain, but looking to buy a complete ambidextrous thumb safety in decent working shape for an old, all steel full-sized EAA Witness 9x19. Located in Lebanon, IN. Have cash and/or lots of items to trade if you'd prefer. Thanks for looking!

      Barrel Lead remover

      I've had and used Lewis Lead Remover sets in .38/.357, .44 and .45 calibers for several decades. There are two 'drawbacks': One is that replacement brass screens can sometimes be hard to find. One can improvise, but ordering and purchasing them in relatively large quantity is much less of a...
