    I would like to appendix carry my 627 2 5/8” snubby, but cannot find any good ones that conceal well. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

    Are these raised grooves inside barrel compensator normal?

    Thank you all for your thoughts. I ended up sending it in to smith. I’m mainly concerned at how chunks of metal have been ripped off. I’m hoping it isn’t a big deal and they can fix it.

    Need recommendations for -

    I like revolvers, but I would recommend a Glock 19 gen 5 to your friend as his first gun. Yeah, it isn’t as simple as a revolver, but it isn’t complex either. If had to choose one gun for my home defense and carry gun, it would be a Glock 19. After that, everything else is extra imo.

    Would you be upset?

    I wouldn’t mind, but I would have expected them to ask me before changing out the barrel. If this was a $2,000+ gun, I would mind.

    Are these raised grooves inside barrel compensator normal?

    Hi all, I have a model 19 carry comp, and I found these raised grooves or something under the compensator part of the gun. The barrel before the compensator looks smooth. Would anyone know if this is normal for a compensator? I got this gun new, and I only have about 150 rounds through it...

    Need help with diagnosis - 357 Blowback

    Thanks everyone. I just got back from the range and I got peppered in the face again. The gun was thoroughly cleaned before shooting. Also, after shooting the first 6 rounds the cylinder wouldn’t close. I called S&W, and they asked me to send it back and also had me give them some info regarding...

    Need help with diagnosis - 357 Blowback

    Thank you all for your thoughts. To answer some of your questions: - the ammo I used is a 158 grain JSP from PMC Bronze - the shrapnel in my face looked like either gun powder or dark brass pieces. Small chance it was lead. - the debris was in the cylinder chamber. They looked like dark sand...

    Need help with diagnosis - 357 Blowback

    Hi all, I’ve been getting blowbacks to the left side of my face from shooting 357 magnums. I’ve had to pull out two tiny shrapnel pieces from my face with tweezers yesterday. I need help figuring out if the issue is from my guns or ammo. Here are the clues: - Ammo in all instances: PMC Bronze...

    Why are people more cautious carrying a chambered bodyguard 2.0?

    I appreciate everyone’s thoughts. It sounds like the bg2.0 is safe as any other typical striker, but the idea of pocket carrying it with a standard trigger pull is a little more risky. I’m going to experiment by carrying it charged without a round in a pocket holster, and see if I notice any...

    Why are people more cautious carrying a chambered bodyguard 2.0?

    I see a lot of people recommend getting the bodyguard 2.0 ts over the nts. Some say the trigger is too light for comfort to carry a round in the chamber with a nts. Or that a ts is safer for pocket carry. I feel like the trigger on my bodyguard 2.0 nts is similar to other strikers, but I don’t...

    Sounds reasonable. Thank you for the advice.

    Bodyguard 2.0 trigger blade safety catching issue?

    Thanks for checking on yours. Do you think sanding down the part of the trigger blade safety that catches would cause any issues?

    Bodyguard 2.0 trigger blade safety catching issue?

    Hi everyone, I just got a new bodyguard 2.0 nts, and I noticed the trigger blade safety catches on the frame a little when pulled. If I pull towards the bottom of the trigger, it is smooth and doesn’t catch at all. But, if I pull towards the top of the trigger, it catches quite a bit. I...

    Korth vs S&W? Are they worth the money?

    Thank you all for your helpful thoughts. I’ve sort of been down this road with pursuing the best guitar I could get. In the end, I realized I basically paid 3x more for 3% better. I ended up selling my higher end guitars. I suspect it may be similar with Korths. But, you know those people that...

    Korth vs S&W? Are they worth the money?

    There are many positive reviews on the Korth revolvers on YouTube, whether they are genuine reviews I don’t know. I had a chance to hold one yesterday. It was a 3” mongoose for $4,000. I wasn’t allowed to test the trigger or turn the cylinder. With that, it didn’t look or feel any better when...
