      Shield EZ

      I own both, and I have two brothers who also own both. The 9 is a bit bigger, and about 6oz heavier. There is a noticeable difference between the two on recoil, but the 9 mm bullet I practice with is 20 grains heavier so that's to be expected. Racking the slide on the 9 is more effort than the...

      M&P 9 v.01 Trigger job recommendations

      Three options: 1. Do it yourself. Here's a link to a site I found back when I got my first GEN1 M&P9: http://www.burwellguns.com/misc/M&Ptriggerjob.pdf 2. Install/have installed an APEX trigger - not hard to do (I've done it on my M&P9 Compact) and works great. 3. Send it to S&W for the M&P...

      ATTN: TAURUS PT Handgun Owners

      Good luck to all of you - I had a PT145 that I (along with a lot of others) decided to send back to Taurus very early in this class action process. I sent my gun back in August of 2015 with the promise that there would be a resolution in 'a few months'. In December of 2016 - yes, that's about...

      Pending Taurus recall.

      Not so sure about that now - after posting the above, I did another chat session with Taurus customer service. This time I was told there will be no replacement, and that they are now evaluating whether to repair the PT-145 - even though they told me a year ago that this was not possible. I...

      Pending Taurus recall.

      Well, at least you still have your pistol - there are a bunch of us who thought we would be really smart and get in before the big rush. We sent our pistols in for 'repair' as a safety issue and we've been sitting on our hands ever since. My PT-145 has been in Taurus's hands for well over a...

      Should I Buy an NAA Revolver?

      I have a Pug and a Black Widow, both in .22 MAG. I can carry these most anywhere, wearing most anything. .22 Mag isn't exactly the best defensive round, but I would not want to be on the exit end of one of my NAA guns. Tough to shoot, but I can put all five rounds inside an 8" circle at 7...

      $500.00 given to you. What do you buy?

      Give me that $500 and would own a Ruger LCRX 38Spcl +P with a 3" barrel - and a few boxes of Gold Dot for Short Barrels. Ruger 5431 LCRX 5RD 38SP +P 3"

      Ultrasonic Cleaners

      I've got the Harbor Freight version as well. Pretty sure it's exactly the same unit as the Lyman that's on sale at Midway USA for $100. I've used mine a good number of times and it works fine - plus I was able to use one of those 25% off coupons on it so got it significantly cheaper than a...

      Current LTCH Wait

      My wife just got hers - 3 weeks from paying local fee to approval and another 5 days to get the license in the mail.

      22 pistol for wife for protection

      We thought this would be a good starting point for my wife - she's recoil-averse and has a hard time racking the slide on most semi-autos. Bought the LCR in .22WMR, but the big issue with this and any other rimfire double action revolver is that the trigger pull is HEAVY - over 16 pounds on the...

      Smith and Wesson 500

      Congrats on the new 'carry' gun. The 500 is one of the most fun-to-shoot handguns of all time. My brother has a 500 and also a 460 with a ported barrel. Great entertainment taking these two to his indoor range - pull the trigger for the first time and everyone else on the range steps back and...

      Safe (But Accessible) Rifle Storage w/Children

      I wanted to get my HD shotgun somewhere accessible but safe and out of sight. Went with this: https://www.stack-on.com/categories/security-cabinets-gun-cabinets/products/75 A bit of work to install, and of course you have to cut a hole in the wall, but this worked fine for me.

      Pending Taurus recall.

      The only thing I'm going to say to all the haters is that I have seven Taurus handguns that have had no more issues with them than with any of my other brands. Regarding the settlement: the conditions were pretty much finalized back in early August. The issue is that the affected models don't...

      Taurus PT92- Good or Bad?

      Had mine for almost 3 years. Shoots fine, looks good. I've never owned a Beretta, so can't compare, but I'm well satisfied with my PT-92.
