    Alternative to .38 Special Recoil

    To young and/or healthy hands, recoil doesn’t matter all that much. At 73, I can’t shoot wadcutters out of a 686. And the argument that you won’t notice recoil in a gunfight is really bogus. Everyone agrees, I think, that regular practice is important to maintain your skill level. You won’t do...

    6-shot J-frame in 30 Super Carry

    S&W introduced 30 Super Carry. How about a 30 Super Carry J-frame SixShot in that caliber in alloy and all steel choices.

    Fave aftermarket sights?

    I just installed Trijicon heavy duty night sights on my Glock 42. They have an orange front sight that really pops, very visible even with my old eyes. The rear have tritium inserts for night vision but look pretty much blacked out in the day. The 380 with those sight and I feel pretty well...

    equalizer / 9EZ parts compatibility

    My CTC laser guard from my 380EZ fits perfectly on my Equalizer. Let us know if aftermarket EZ sights fit on it. The same laser guard fit on the 9EZ as well.

    Question on EZ or Equalizer

    My wife really likes the 380 EZ. I just got the Equalizer. I love it. Don’t worry about any of these coming out of battery. Nonexistent problem. Both of these guns are way way way easier to shoot than any five shot revolver. Believe me. Of the four you’re considering, the Equalizer hands down...

    Equalizer is a Great Shooter

    No pinching I haven’t experienced a finger pinching problem. I have in the past with Glocks. I shot my equalizer again today. My Crimson Trace laser from my 380EZ fit perfectly and I dialed it in today. I’m wondering if they’re going to come out with an Equalizer 380. That pondered, I still...

    Equalizer is a Great Shooter

    I bought one immediately wishing it would be what I hoped for. First, it’s not a micro. It’s slightly larger than the 380EZ. I’ve shot S&W guns for over 40 years qualifying on various law enforcement courses of fire. Currently retired and qualifying annually for LEOSA, I shot this for qualifying...

    Shield 9mm to replace M49?!?

    If you can find a rental, try the Shield 380EZ. Much, much easier to shoot. Ballistics are fine. I also used light wad cutters in my j-frames.

    Tips for a new CCW holder?

    Get a good belt, good holster and concealable gun you shoot well. Then take the time to get used to it. A lot of newbies get a cheaper, large gun and Walmart nylon holster that sticks out 12 inches or so. Then say carrying concealed isn’t for me. Don’t be that guy.

    Difficult to rack slide.

    I too have trouble racking the slide on my PC ported Shield 9. I use an empty mag and close to the chest push pull. The ultimate fix though is the Shield 380EZ. Soooo much easier to rack. Half the effort. Mag loading too, 1/3 the effort as a Shield 9. Try it, you’ll like it.

    Shield 9mm to replace M49?!?

    I love revolvers but everytime I carry my 5-shot, I encounter a situation where I think if it went bad here, I’d wished I had more gun. For instance, walking in the bank to make a deposit. Pumping gas and a full car across the way mean-mugging me. For the same size and less weight you get 8+1...
