    19-7 opinion

    For follow-up, I bought it (at $488 it was hard to let it slip by)! First time at the range today, couldn't shoot a lot, but after some fine-tuning of the rear sight, it shoots pretty well! Below 5 shots at 15m/16.4yards (38 special). More pics soon. And Thanks to those who took the time...

    Fair enough, but in the in end, they have to sell, so even though I trust him, I thought external advice, always keep critical mind, whoever tells me sth.

    So nothing to worry about? I think you are describing what I wanted to highlight i.e. the triangular ^ at the base of the flat portion

    By decent you mean “acceptable” or “a lot” (sorry I don’t get all nuances in English)?

    Hello all, My gunsmith showed me this 19-7. I'm no expert at all to inspect a used revolver so I'd like some of your advice. I watched two videos explaining how to inspect one before buying: Overall, in my humble opinion the gun is in good condition, it passed all the tests I remembered...

    Trends You Simply Can't Stand...Feel Free To Vent Here

    Easy for me, these are prohibited for civilians in my country (but go figure it out, it's OK if you cross the border and drive 20 miles to France)

    Trends You Simply Can't Stand...Feel Free To Vent Here

    I'm no expert, but I don't get why people modify their stock Glock...Why sacrifice reliability to get "a better" trigger when it's up to the shooter to get the job done. I enjoy air pistol so I know what a light and good trigger means and I can tell you, my G17.5 was great out of the box and...

    Hearing protection recommendations?

    I always double up 1. earplugs from Quies 2. Peltor Optime III It's the best protection you can get (noise protection is less important with electronic). That being said, I only shoot handguns. If I ever shoot a rifle, I'd probably have to buy other earmuffs since they are quite bulky and it...

    Dent on recoil plate of new 686?

    I know it will collect dents, but these will be mine and not from the factory... Anyway, I finally had the time to finetune the sights and it shoots like a dream! First five shots two-handed, five next shots with one hand (.38 special at 25 meters/27,3 yards). For record, the bull's-eye is...

    Which 357 revolver is next?

    Thank you everyone for the feedback and advices. After some thought, I'll just stick with my 686, first learn how to shoot it and enjoy it before jumping for another one. In a few months/years from now, I'll be able to refine my judgment and see which one I need/want. I'm just at the beginning...
