One-handed offhand? Well done! Looking forward to groups off the bag. Found one at a LGS and I'm really impressed with how well it fits my hand. Looking for more range reports before I make a decision. I'm really interested to see how it does at 25 yards from a sand bag since I may use it...

Gander Mountain Paid $449+tax for my 9mm during Gander Mountain's grand opening in Valdosta, GA back in August of 2012. I'd had one on order through a LGS for months. GM got in over forty of them for the grand opening. Started on Friday, I got there Saturday and there were 6 left.

I agree. Having "grown up" on the 1911 the frame mounted safety is second nature but I'd like to have a bit more purchase for my thumb. Surely, someone will step up.

To reduce weight check with Brownells Technical Support at 800-741-0015 and tell them what you're trying to do. I have found them to extremely helpful especially in areas I'm not experienced in. Replacing the rebound and mainspring coupled with extensive dry firing has made a dramatic...

Thanks, Matt!

I'm going to Williamsburg for continuing education classes. Where are some good places to eat in that area. We like seafood, barbecue or anything else that's good.

Late '70's. Small South Georgia town. Found myself alone on a roadblock looking for several convicts who had commandeered a delivery van. All I had was an issued double barrel shotgun, my personal M-66 and a radio. Next day I went to a local pawn shop and bought a new Ruger Mini-14. A 180...

I've got several, but it would be my simple little Model 10 with heavy barrel.

Great kayak, BTW! Do you use it for fishing?

Maybe so, I just haven't run into one that had a decent trigger. . . . mine's beginning to come along, though. I can already feel a difference

Spring weight is not the problem. I can deal with that. I'm just wondering if there is something in the manufacturing process regarding the 642 that results in such a rough trigger pull.

. . . the blasted trigger is so lousy!! Every one I've tried is terrible. Is there a reason for this? I'm not talking spring weight, either. It's just rough! My 640 (+P+) was never this bad. Just purchased a new 642 two days ago and I'm currently giving it a poor man's action job (dry...

Speedo, that's what it looks like!

Saw a Model 586 in great condition with a barrel at least 7.5" for $499 at the gun show in Valdosta, GA located north of exit 15 off I-75 south of Wal Mart and Sams. Very light turn line and recoil shield looked very nice. Very small amount of holster wear at muzzle. Don't know much about...
