    Ammunition choice - dead horse, maybe - J frames only - .38 Specials only

    cast, standard pressure, 158 grain, SWC. If I can't find the ammo, I'll cast and roll my own.

    S&W J frame vs. Glock 42

    Fits my hand like a glove. Ugly as homemade sin yes, but it really doesn't add much for concealability, and I'll take function over form every time.

    S&W J frame vs. Glock 42

    I'll bet you won't be wishing anything. I'm betting you will be too "in the moment" to think about anything else.;) Everybody remember you can talk about your sigs, glocks, 442s etc. but humpbacks are way cooler than anything else;)

    No (Safe) Guns

    Guns don't eat much, don't talk back, watch stupid crap on the idiot box, or leave dirty dishes in the sink. I let sleeping dog lie.

    The unavoidable gun fight. Are you confident with your handgun choice?

    Cowpies. As I think I stated in this tread before (I'm too lazy to check to make sure) retired 25 years from a max. security prison. Some of the seemingly nicest people you ever want to meet are in prison. By all means believe what you will but you are condemning a lot of good people and...

    Would you be upset?

    This, then my opinion, except in cases for reliability, if you need +P you need a bigger gun.

    Would you be upset?

    Would you be upset? NO! There is a difference between restoration and repair. I apologize in advance, but JMHO people are too nit-picky today. You got what you asked for. No end shake, "almost perfect timing", and a good cylinder gap. Shoot the dog snot out of that puppy and worry about...

    Carded

    I disagree completely. Not to the lowest denominator but passing new legislation to justify their pay checks. ;)

    Have You Sought Professional Training?

    NO. I've always had more important places for my $ to go. Family to support, one sometime two others to give a long-term helping hand to. No regrets in the choices I've made but I will say that I have learned something from each training session required for my job. I feel that that I'm...

    Need recommendations for -

    THIS! A DA/SA .22 revolver. low recoil, low muzzle blast, both deterrents to learning. Low cost of ammo so one can shoot more. Once one is competent with a DA trigger while hitting the target, everything else is a breeze. While in the learning stage (the length of which is dependent on...

    1917 is on its way!

    Just for the record, I hate you.;) Of all the guns I have sold, traded, and just given away my 1917 S&W is the only one I truly miss. Someday I believe that the gun will find its way back to me.

    Revolver Saturation

    Not handguns but.... Traditional muzzle loaders. Before you know it, you will be looking at/for/buying another flintlock rifle, and you'll want a musket, maybe a trade gun or 2 or 3, "correct" knives, moccasins, coonskin hats, real bever felt tricones, white canvas tents, hand stitching your...

    The unavoidable gun fight. Are you confident with your handgun choice?

    Prison Guards have NO sense of humor. Actually, that's not true, it is just so dark, twisted, and sick that they only really let loose with each other. Any humor one gets out of them has been sanitized out of respect and caution of being labeled and outcast of society. Walk around in a sewer...

    Bodyguard 2.0 magazine release mod...it is too long.

    Images taken from the web. Holster-less carry is not an accident waiting to happen, with the right equipment. Having said that if I was to carry a safety less, recycled Tupperware, striker fired, ugly as homemade sin, bottom feeder that would another kettle of fish. ;)

    Benighted BBC reports British gun crime… it’s a holy terror!

    +1 with the caveat as long as I don't have to prop them up, support them, have to defend them, and most importantly they return the favor and mind their own business.
