My B-I-L wanted to buy my Colt Trooper. Due to other expenses, it’s on the back burner for him. Might be a couple of years before he decides that he can afford it. I don’t think he really wants to pay my price anyway. He said that it would just be a dust collector for him but it would be neat to...

My son picked up a 1969/1970 pencil barrel not too long ago in near pristine condition for $500. Posted pics here and guys responded that it was a”$400 gun at best “ or something to that effect., Sure makes me wonder where they are getting them because I’m not seeing them.

Used to be a stickler about going the speed limit. I figured if people were on my bumper trying to go faster, that was their problem. Seemed like the right attitude at the time. Now I get over, and even speed up to hurry out of the left lane if necessary. You never know why someone else may be...

Have you tried the Henry Homesteader?

I’ve not owned one but I wanted one. Held one in a gun store and came to the same conclusion. Too front end heavy.

VZ thin grips make a world of difference!

I’ve had a Glock 42, Glock 43, original Bodyguard .380, Ruger LCP, LCP2, LCP Max and Sig P365. If you don’t have other guns, go with the Sig P365 because it’s 9mm. I recently went back to the P365 because of size and caliber. Recoil was a little much in a short barrel. Decided to go back to...

Ummm, how about ammo cost? .38 Special and .357 has b exorbitant lately. In some cases, .38 was exceeding the price of .357.

Received an answer from S&W.

I just emailed S&W to see if sticky extraction will be an issue and to see what testing they’ve done to ensure that this not an issue. Waiting for a reply.

I think Charter Arms makes one. No need for moon clips either.

In a previous post, others mentioned that I should just get the Equalizer instead. While I am sure that the Equalizer is a fine weapon and offers some good improvements, I don’t feel that I need the added mag capacity and I would lose one of the major advantages of the EZ-9; the easy load mags!

I really debated whether I should go with the .380 or 9mm. I will give it a while. Perhaps I will go with the .380 sometime later on.

Just purchased a used EZ9. Liked the way the mags load and price was good.

Due to hand health issues, I knew that I would eventually go with a S&W EZ-9. I should have done it sooner. Found a used one with two mags and a holster for $325 OTD. It was manufactured in April 2021. I added Pearce grip extensions to the mags for a slightly better finger rest. Recoil, my...
