  1. I had on a 2nd Generation Colt Agent. Really helped with the controlabilty, without compromising concealability. That being said, I think I like the grips S&W are putting on their J-Frames better. They are very grippy on my 442!
  2. Nice little revolver! This looks like what you were looking for, unless it’s worth a lot of money. Reloading may be the way to go for it though. .38S&W isn’t that easy to find. And most of it that I’ve seen are lead round nose. Not the greatest defense round out there. Of course, if you are just going to use it to plink with, then who cares.
  3. On the other hand, many of the Democratic candidates for President, have threatened to overhaul SCOTUS if they do hear the case. That could be like waving a red cape in front of a bull, to certain members of the court. Might be enough to get them to hear it.
  4. Another one I sometimes carry is a Cold Steel Spike Tanto. This a more of a defensive weapon, much like a Stiletto, from Medieval times. The blade is a triangle shape with one razor sharp angle is about 6 or 7 inches in length and one piece of steel. It’s design to punch a large hole into whatever you thrust it into. Expect a lot of bleeding to occur, if used correctly. Comes with a chain for neck wear, but I hide it a coat sleeve or boot. They are discontinued now, but you can still find them. can’t post a pic, but here is a link. https://www.knifecenter.com/item/CS53CT/cold-steel-53ct-spike-tanto-point-cord-wrapped-handle
  5. I have several neck knives that I sometimes carry. A CRKT Folts Minimalist Wharncliffe and Esee Izula. I just hardly ever wear them around my neck. I usually just stick them in a pocket.
  6. Make it stop! May it stop!
  7. Yes he did. And this is why I could not vote for him in the last election and chose to vote Libertarian, instead. I do not trust him as far as I could throw him.
  8. Probably not. I think we may be seeing the old 10 round magazine limits coming back, dependiong on how the next election goes, along with another Assault Weapons Ban, I'm seeing a lot of Republican Politicians speaking out against us now.
  9. Trump was never a Republican or Conservative, except for convenience. At best he is pragmetist and at worst a snake in the grass (closet Democrat). And I'm afraid we are about to see the snake show it's ugly head. I believe he will trade us for his wall along the southern border and immigration reform.
  10. I don't disagree on your take here. Still might get an AR Pistol and also a brace and just put the brace back and not put it on. Just incase everything goes south one of these days.
  11. Been think about getting one, but I will probably hold off. I think they make a handy firearm, though! Actually, I don't think the pistols will go away, but I do think we are about to see a crackdown on braces and drum mags. Those may well go the way of the Dodo bird and the bump stock.
  12. Actually, think it's kinda sad that the TWRA lost this revenue stream. I was quite happy to pay that 10 cents on a box of ammunition.
  13. Never was a fan of the Tapco Mags. I kinda liked the fixed 10 rounders, myself.
  14. That's not a bad price. I see used ones around here, going for that and they are all ragged out. I've had a couple over the years. Good, reliable shooters. The stocks on both were too short for me. I needed at least another inch or two at the butt. The pull was just too short. Still, I wish had at least one of them back.
  15. Yeah, I really do think it's somwhat of niche Pistol. I always like the Browning BDA/Berreta 84 pistols with their sleek lines and high capacity. I think S&W would have done this pistol justice, by increasing the mag capacity.
  16. I'm trying hard to dislike this pistol, but it's growing on me. Just don't know if I want a .380 in this size. when there are 9mms and .45acps basically the same size. I just fail to see the advantages, especially with only an 8 round mag. I'd have really have liked to see it with in a double stack.
  17. Man, my 67A loves any .22 you can fit in the chamber. Most people don't shot shorts anymore, b ut I have a lot of fun with them. It loves even those. And like everyone else states, it's a surprisingly accurate rifle! Great as a woods gun!!!
  18. I’d look for a Marlin or a Rossi in either .357 or .44 mag. Not a fan of Winchesters. I’ve had a couple of Marlin and Winchesters in 30/30. Just never liked the caliber and didn’t like the way the Winchester worked. Love Henrys, but if you are looking for traditional, Henry doesn’t fall into that category. However they make a beautiful rifle, especially their Big Boy Steel Rifles!
  19. They made a peep sight for them too. It just replaced the dovetailed rear notched sght. I have a spare barrelled receiver with one on it. Before anyone askes, I'm not looking to get sell it. My eyes are getting old too, just like the rest of you!
  20. STENS were fairly crude. I was fortunate to get to play with one about 25 years ago and it was a blast, literially. But the fit and finish are all war time with minimal sights. the rear side was basically a L-shaped piece of steel with a hole cut in it in and then tack welded to the steel round reciever. The front sight, as I remember it was made the same, with the top side cut into a V. Seems like it was tack welded onto the receiver as well. The only safety was pulling the bolt back and then turning it about 15 degrees, so that the charging handle slid into a notch, cut into a receiver. The finish looked like it was painted on with a used brush. Very crudely made, but it ran like a singer sewing machine!!! Just remember that there may be legal ramifications to producing one.
  21. Just because they are in current production, doesn't necessarily make them a better option. There are lots of older firearms that are just as good and certainly cheaper on the budget. Ruger has to be the most puzzling firearms company going, though. Seems like they make a semi Auto for five or so years and then drop it from production, regardless of the success (the LCP seemingly being the lone exception). The model mentioned above is a good case in point. The LC9s is another great example. And why do they continue to sale pistols with only one mag? That drives me crazy!
  22. Yeet Cannon! I might have to get one. Some other cheap, American made pistols are the Ruger LCP and LCPII, and the Charter Arms line of revolvers, many of which can be found for under $300.
  23. Moped

    Ruger Wrangler

    That would probably be negative. But single actions have been around so long that just about everyone that's been around firearms, know how to adjust one out.
  24. FORO is not a problem for me. My normal carry is a Ruger LCP and two extra 6 round mags or a S&W 442 with two speed strips or a SA XDs. .45ACP loaded with 6 rounds and 2 extra 7 round mags. So usually I'm looking at 15, 19 or 20 Rounds. This feels adequete for me.
  25. Hard to beat 1095 Carbon steel, coated with a durable finish. Ka-bars are built like tanks!
