      22 handgun

      I currently have 3 22's which I use on a regular basis: 1) Colt Woodsman - fine gun very accurate. 2) Beretta Model 76 - no longer made but was replaced by the Model 87. It's a target gun and well balanced. 3) Walther P22. Just got this one a couple of weeks ago. I've put about 150 rounds...

      Looking for a 22LR pistol ?

      I currently have a Baretta Model 87 and a Colt Woodsman. Both are fine pistols and I have no complaints with either one. I've had the Colt since the mid 60's and the Baretta since the mid 70's. They are reliable, accurate, fun to shoot, and (in my opinion) inexpensive. I don't know what they...

      My mom PK380/LCP

      I can confirm the LCP does kick like a mule. I traded mine for a PK380 and have not looked back. The LCP was just not fun to shoot and the PK is. It's just my opinion, but I think the PK is a much higher quality gun and has the safety features I like. It has much less kick and tends to stay on...

      Walher PK380 Range Report

      Re: size comparison. The PK is about 25 larger and I doubt it would fit in a vest pocket. I think the LCP would but I'm not sure. Of course, the reason I traded was to get a larger gun. I had no complaints to speak of with the LCP, it just didn't serve my purpose. Pete

      Shooter521, Thanks again for your help. As you can see, I was successful in posting the message. I think I figured out what I did wrong the first time. The older I get, the more this happens (just turned 65). Pete

      Walher PK380 Range Report

      I paid $70.00 plus the LCP and 3 mags. The First Edition comes with 2 mags plus a holster. I modified my XDm holster so the PK380 would fit. I works quite well and I prefer a paddle holster. As for the 9mm comparison, I have a Springfield Armory XDm, 9mm which I really like. It's just a...

      Walher PK380 Range Report

      Last week I traded my Ruger LCP for a Walther PK380. The main consideration was the size (it does matter). The LCP was just too small for my ham-like hands and I was never comfortable shooting it. On several occassions, the Magazine release was inadvertantly pushed causing a FTF. And the one...

      Shooter521, I would like to post a range report for my new Walther PK380. However, I do not have 50 posts and therefore cannot post in the "handguns" section. Any suggestions? Thanks, Pete

      Free online gun schematics

      Thank you for the link. I could have used this yesterday while I was cleaning guns. Much better than the stock user manuals. Pete

      One in the chamber?

      I responded to the poll that I do not carry one in the chamber. However, after reading all the comments, I've decided to try 'locked and cocked'. When I carried a revolver, it never bothered me to have the hammer on a loaded chamber. Thanks for all the input. Pete

      Sure fire Weapon Light

      If you buy online, I've had good luck with Optics Planet (opticsplanet.net). However, I prefer to buy locally if the price is close. I really don't mind paying a little more if it helps the local retailers. For me, that Liberty in Avon and Premier Arms in Brownsburg. Hope this helps you. Pete

      Att'a Boy for Laserlyte

      Last week I purchased a rear sight laser from LaserLyte (RL-XD) for my XD-M. While trying to adjust it I managed to strip the screw for the elevation part of the sight. No fault of the product, just an inept worker. Anyway, I called the company today to see what I had to do to fix it. I...

      Range Report P3AT: Backstory and photos.

      I have a Ruger LCP and have not had any trouble with it. I have put 150 rounds through it and have not had the casing deformations you have experienced. I noticed one of the replies stated his did the same as yours and is considered normal. I'd let it go at that. As far as accuracy, the LCP is...

      How many Xd's Xdm's do you have?

      XD-M 9mm and I love it. I'm currently looking at a Springfield 1911 in either 45 or 9mm. Pete

      Range Report Kel-Tec P3AT

      I had the same experience with my Ruger LCP. Although not a KEL-TEC it's similar enough to have the same characteristics. After about 100 rounds through it, I was convinced that this is just not an accurate weapon outside of 20 feet. Farther than that and you might as well throw it. Anyway, I...

      Picking a new hand gun

      I first decide how I'll use the gun. This includes deciding between a revolver and auto. Then, silly as it seems, I need to like how the gun looks - nobody likes an ugly gun. Then I get down to fit and finish, price, reputation and so on. It usually takes me about 3 to 6 months to finally narrow...

      Prescription Shooting glasses - Bifocals or not?

      Bi-focal shooting glasses I wear lined bi-focals and have had no problems adjusting while shooting. Rather than having a special pair of sunglasses made, I just wear my regular glasses and put a set of clip-ons over them or use a set of those "HD" glasses which fit over my regular glasses. I've...
