    I'm here at M&P Pistols most of the time so posting

    Getting to be ammo left over at the end of the day in the Ozarks. I can go at noon to the ones that put out at 7am or next morning most times to the ones that put out at 6pm. Not much 22lr still but 9mm, 40, 38spl, 45 are back in the game. Picked up some .25 Auto this morning for pocket carry in...

    Another Shield 9mm Defect - Trigger reset spring broke on first shot...

    A few months back my TS broke on my FS 9 and I sent them pics and explained what broke. First they sent me two mag springs for a FS .40. Quite a difference in size. I was perturbed when I opened the package. Eventually got what I needed.

    Using FrogLube

    Lots of folks are skeptical but FL works and is easier to clean your guns after heavy use. After two applications and 300 rounds thru my XDs9 I blew it out with a compressor , lightly lubed the rails and front and back of the barrel and put 425 rounds down range in a little over an hour. The...

    Using FrogLube

    I started with FL on 3 new pistols. After cleaning and scrubbing with alcohol I put some paste in a lid and melted with a hair dryer before applying to hot parts.

    Range Jitters

    Do you have the best hearing protection you can buy? You might go some place where you can just shoot rapid fire or slow and not worry about hitting the target in front of folks. How are you at public speaking? Inhibited at all? May be just stage fright.

    Walmart prices shooting up?

    In the Ozarks and 4 state area the smaller country WM get more than their share. I travel a bit to see relatives in NE Oklahoma and NW Arkansas and some to SE Kansas and I can usually find something running the app.

    HST?

    I found the Fed HST 147 gr LE at SGAMMO. Two weeks ago but might still have it. Can't remember pricing but was way better than 20 round boxes. These were 50's and what I'm carrying. They cycle and shoot well in my XDs9.

    Shield vs XDs

    Well after trying a couple of XDs9's I picked one with a nice trigger about a month ago and couldn't be happier. I discovered not all triggers in the same new handguns are alike. My M&P's had to have Apex parts for me to shoot them well. I bought an XDm9 3.8 first and have 900 plus rounds thru...

    Grain Count, Velocity Question

    May be confusing bullet grain with powder. Not sure though?

    Johnny Carson

    First time I saw Steve Martin was on Johnny Carson's show. My dad let my little brother and I stay up to watch. We were in stitches and so was J.C.

    Does this gun come with a case??

    You might see if the friend has a 22 pistol as well if you've not fired a pistol before.

    Walmart prices shooting up?

    I know of one that was caught. Bingo-gone. I think in some places it happens still though.
