    Anyone carry ported gun?

    I have two Ruger super Blackhawks in 44 mag, one is a 5" custom magna ported the other a 7.5" no porting. The shorter barreled one if not ported should "kick" more, but because it is ported it actually shoots softer then the 7.5 " one. I carry a shield PC 9mm which is ported and it is very...

    Ported (PC) Shield Myths and Misconceptions

    most if not all of the OP's points are well taken. as far as the post about too much smut on the front sight... wipe it off between mags or a few mags will take a few seconds and it's never a problem, unless for course you don't have the time....to me porting has always been a plus , really...

    Shield Manual Safety Question

    My P.C. Shield 1.0 in 9mm's safety is a firm on/off with no play, the trigger pull is consistently measures just under 4.75 lbs and actually feels less than that. If your trigger isn 6.75 to 7 lbs that's not a PC trigger and it needs to be returned to bring it to Real P C standards. Any safety...

    model 48 22 magnum

    Is the ejector rod properly tightened ? If it worked properly before you cleaned it and when you loaded it the cylinder closed fine and it fired without any "drag" on the cylinder rotating to the next chamber it might be something under the extractor star that entered when you ejected the empties.

    Is the 686 3-5-7 series Talo a stock trigger?

    When you have assemblers rather then gunsmiths putting/fitting parts together, and Their need to produce a certain number of finished pieces per day you get hit or miss (no pun intended) quality. If at all possible, acute visual and tactile inspection of a gun is now almost a necessity to have a...

    There is a 6 " 17-4 with 3 Ts in very nice condition at a LGS No box or any accessories, does $550 out the door seem reasonable ? I have never owned one, don't need it but it just looks great, and has a very nice trigger pull, and great looking target stocks.

    Rural King

    hitman, No misunderstanding, as I questioned the CS on this several times, his response was that I would not/could not understand the complexities of the local state laws that went above and beyond Federal laws, and this was why it took so long to process an order be shipped to one of their own...

    Should I be upset

    How many rounds had you fired through the revolver? It must have been many hundreds to still have grime after what supposed to be a deep cleaning. Deep cleaning by a Gunsmith should mean total disassembly , and or ultrasonic cleaning. The pics show what appears to be gunpowder residue. A light...

    Is my 1969 Model 60 really "junk" ?

    Just because a guy has an ffl doesn't mean he has any gun knowledge or common sense. Compare him to many new car salesmen that have only limited knowledge of the cars they sell, and what they don't know they just BS their way through to make a sale. I would only use this FFL for deals like this...

    Issues with my 66-8 2.75"

    As to screws backing out, take them out and degrease the screws and holes. Get a tube of PURPLE loc-tite, this is a LOW strength thread locker, it will not stop easy removal but will control screws backing out under recoil. I have used it for a long time to prevent this type of problem on...

    Frog Lube

    Frog lube… You can love or hate it, you can follow the instructions and it does what it claims to do, or, you can apply it the way you want to and you will get varying results. Too much work to use it, harder to apply, now thats a joke, right? I use it and other products, each has its pluses...

    Is there a Burris fastfire adapter for core?

    Thanks very much, when I read an article about the core and the included mounts it made no mention of any mount for the fast fire being included.
