When I click on the link for the Don Hume it shows me one for the public defender. It also shows me a different model for the airweight on the website. I think my web surfing skills are degrading also and that doesn't help.

Hello all, I recently acquired a hammerless 642 airweight. I seem to be having an issue finding a holster that does not make me dig down past my belt to easily and quickly draw it. Most seem to be made to ride a little low in the belt line. I have been shooting it and I am by no means a...

Thanks for all the replies and advice. It is all appreciated. That still leaves me with the question...what is the melting point of a polymer frame? I'm not asking for the sake of froglube at this point. I'm genuinely curious to the answer. Not sure a toothbrush being melted by a heat gun will...

Hello, It's an odd question I know. I was wondering how much heat can my M&P Shield polymer frame take before it damages it? I've read other forums and heard MANY answers. The lowest I read was 284 degrees and the highest was around 500. I'm asking because I was going to use a heat gun to...

Thanks everyone for the tips and advice. I took her to the range last night. At 7 yards I'm putting a 3" ish group low and to the left. I went home and did the dry fire practice and sure enough I was jerking the trigger. At this point I don't think the sights are an issue. It seems to...

This there an easy way for a novice like myself to do this?

Hello, I just bought a Shield 9mm last night and joined the forums this afternoon during lunch. Maybe this is nothing. I was looking at the rear sight on my new Shield and it looks like it is shifted slightly to the left (looking at it from the rear of the gun). It's not a lot but I noticed...
