    Cleaning your guns

    I keep all mine clean but not to that extent. I keep my cleaning kit in a Altoids tin, lol. Jags, brushes, patches and brass rod. I do clean the barrel and charge holes until the patches are whitish. Finish up with a light coat of oil then wipe off the excess. I edc revolvers most of the time...

    S&W Customer Service??

    Never had a problem with a s&w. When I did need something, like safety delete parts, recoil springs etc... got them in about a week no questions asked. I know it’s frustrating but I have had problems with Remington and glock and 6 weeks didn’t even hit he half way mark for Remington on a 1911...

    Shield 9: Can't get the slide lock to work.

    Also make sure the recoil rod is seated correctly. I've never seen a slide lock that won't move. I have seen the recoil rod not aligned good so the slide would not travel back far enough to lock. I'm sure someone who knows more than me can help more Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Melonite uneven question

    Any idea why the melonite is uneven in this corner? Only a month old. Wasn't like that when I first got it. It's going into my rotation so it will be beat to hell in a year but just curious why this might be. S&W says just put light oil on it but never did get a "why" answer. Sent from my...

    Shield 9mm perfect range trip

    Well must say that with 250 rounds down range today without a flaw I'm one happy camper :) Shot Remington 115gr fmj and some hornady critical defense 115gr. This is the one I tried the frog lube on and I liked it. Perfect carry gun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Newbe - Shield Striker Question

    Yup this is normal. It wouldn't happen with a round chambered in battery. Well unless someone took inordinate steps to make it happen. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
