I like the looks of the Bulldog and I like the big bore concept. Also, lately I’m getting into revolvers. But, the big question for me is the recoil. I don’t think I am particularly recoil sensitive but I am getting older. For example, I have an S&W model 640 and I cannot tolerate shooting 357...

Weekend bump.

Here is a fluted Alpha Wolf 9mm conversion barrel for a Glock 23 (40s&w) and Glock 32 (357sig). It is a drop-in fit and requires no fitting. I have used it my G23 and G32 and it has functioned flawlessly thru approximately 300 rounds of mixed FMJ and JHP. No change in recoil spring required...

Bump it up.

Weekend bump.

I’ll take the J frame round butt grips for $35 shipped.

I’ll take the Model 49 nickel.

I especially don’t like the following on nice 1911’s: Forward slide serrations Accessory rails Square trigger guards Big, honkin magwells (small OK) Threaded barrels Grips with ladies, snakes, or Latin words on them

For sale, a leather IWB holster for the model 3913. Made by Ross Leather in South Africa. RH draw in a rich brown color. Used very little and in very good condition. Price is $90 shipped CONUS. Venmo preferred but will accept Zelle, discrete PP, money order or check from forum member.

I’m a certified instructor and last year moved away from groups to exclusively private instruction (mostly women and/or first timers). I have witnessed firsthand how subjective felt recoil is. Some are recoil sensitive and opt for Sig P365-380 or G42. Others of similar size annd apparent hand...

For me, “current circumstances “ equates to more of a capacity question than caliber. Seems like bad guys are acting in concert with others, like a team or a mob. Even the current trend of “jugging” usually involves at least two to roll up on an ATM user. In Chicago now a team of 3 or 4 stops...

I was wanting a 432UC until I started reading about all the problems people are having with the UC guns. Revolvers used to be regarded as the gold standard in reliability. S&W fixed that. Im going to sit this one out.

I have a Glock 42 in .380 which I carry IWB on rare occasions in the Summer when it gets really hot and I wear only a light t-shirt. It’s highly underrated IMHO compared to the more popular Bodyguard 2.0 or LCP. It is light, naturally dehorned, and with a readily available +2 mag extension...
