    New 4553 TSW

    I prefer the 3rd Generation DAO pistols. I carried a 4553TSW for a few years, but removed the crappy rail so that it would fit the same holster as my 4556's. I still qualify with a 4546 and 4556 and carry one almost daily. The trick to using a hammer fired DAO is simple... learn how to shoot. 😉

    reload 9mm?

    With few exceptions, factory ammunition is garbage. They put anemic amounts of dirty powder under poorly made bullets. I stocked up on enough quality 9mm and 45 components years ago, when things were plentiful and inexpensive. I can keep handloading for years to come.

    Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act

    SCOTUS needs to affirm that public places are where the public needs to be able to protect itself. Public transportation, public parks, etc. These should not be considered sensitive areas.

    Treasure is buried so that it can be recovered later and spent. Anything buried 150ft down, with flood tunnels, wasn't meant to be recovered.

    625-8 Performance Center

    I've owned every pre-lock we 25 and 625 made, since 1988. This 625-4 with PC upgrades is the only one I've kept. Their action tuning is remarkable.

    Trijicon No Longer Making 3d Gen Sights

    I heard about Trijicon dropping support a year ago, so I had new night sights installed on my pistols and spare slides while they were still available. They will continue to revamp existing sights.

    A Couple New PC No Lock Limited Edition Revolvers

    The only way to remove Cerakote is to put it in and out of a holster a dozen times during qualification.

    4506 Mags - Black vs Yellow Follower - Feed Lip difs.

    We had problems with the yellow follower mags during qualifications. When we did magazine save reloads, those wide feed lips would let the next round come loose. The later magazine feed lips with crimped sides and black followers corrected the problem.

    The Model 10 - Why the bull barrel?

    Tapered barrels are for carrying a lot and shooting very little. Heavy barrels are for shooting a lot, especially during LE training and qualification.

    Bianchi #80 Pinch Leather RH Holster for 1076

    Strong side or cross draw. Appears new. Marked for S&W 1076, but I would imagine it fits similar pistols. $45 plus $10 USPS Priority Mail shipping.

    Gen 3 DAO conversion to SA/DA?

    The first autos I used were 1911's in the Army. I was stationed in Germany when the Army began seriously considering the Beretta, so I picked up a 92SB to see what the fuss was about. During the first trip to the range, I decided that DA/SA was about the silliest thing ever invented. One of...

    What constitutes collectable?

    If you're the seller, the firearm is "collectable." If you're the buyer, it's nothing special.

    Price check on shooter 625-2

    The -2 had a floating hand, so I certainly wouldn't pay -3 thru -5 premiums.

    625 pickup today

    Nice. The 3" and 4" came with nice ramp front sights. The 5" usually had patridge front sights, which would tear up holsters during qualifications.

    After 25 years …no Internal Lock!

    Count me in for a 25 or 625 with a 5" barrel. Either cartridge is fine.
