    New, no lock, Model 19-10 extra part?

    Brand new Classic Line, Model 19-10, no lock, fresh from the Distributor. Fit, finish, action, timing are all superior. I have not disassembled it. The hammer has a notch cut out on the left side when viewed from the rear. There appears to be an extra part that interacts with the hammer (no...

    Models I Wish S&W Would Build

    Classic Model 19 with 3-inch barrel WITHOUT PORTS, just ordinary red ramp on ramp base. Blue steel versions the OLD style J-Frames, not the Magnum J Frame, in 38 Special +P to look like the Models 40 and 49 (they already make the Classic Model 36). Classic Series, Model 39, updated with firing...

    Deerslayer88 - Paid for grips, never received / Refund given

    In June 2017, I purchased from Deerslayer88 a set of S&W K frame round butt magna grips. I sent the check for $40 to the address he gave me. He cashed the check one week later. I have never received the grips. I have sent 2 or 3 emails to him, and he has not favored me with a response...

    The new Glock 46 is a G19-sized pistol in 9 x 19, 15 shot magazine, with a Gen 5 frame (no finger grooves, but without the half circle cut-out in front of the mag well), with the ambi-slide release levers, the Gen 4 interchangeable back straps, and with a beveled front of the slide like the Gen...

    2017: Colt's re-entry into the revolver market

    I see that the M&P M2.0 is just around the corner. I will go out on a limb and predict a Colt re-entry into the DA revolver market with a 2 inch, 6 shot, Cobra 38 Special +P (D Frame) in a combination alloy/stainless model. If you are one who believes Colt will never re-enter the revolver...

    FBI selects new pistol to go with its 9mm ammo

    The FBI finished its testing, and has adopted a new duty pistol, in full, and compact sizes, to fire its new 147 grain 9mm Gold Dot G2 ammo. I hate it for the M&P, but the award was not unexpected either. The award was given to Glock, who apparently submitted improved versions of its G17 and...

    The Houlton, Maine factory - What happens there?

    I did not know that the Houlton, Maine S&W no longer produces complete firearms. For a while, they were producing the 22 pistols and the 1911s, I think. And perhaps the 3d Gen pistols that were still occasionally made for LE contracts. It seems that the plant now makes all of the restraints and...

    Is the tabbed trigger safety necessary? Part 2

    For anyone who thinks the so-called tabbed trigger or pivoting trigger is unnecessary on striker-fired pistol, you may feel free to go about with your head in the sand if you want, but before you do, please watch both of the brief videos at this link before you talk about all the reasons...

    New M&P variants coming

    M&P Bodyguard 380 with no manual safety (10266) and the same with a Crimson Trace laser (10265). M&P Shield in both 9mm (10086) and .40 S&W (10214) with 3 magazines and night sights. I am not sure about whether these will have the dreaded manual safety, but I hope not.

    FBI Request for Proposal for new 9mm pistols

    As I am sure most of you already know, the FBI this month issued a Request for Proposal for new 9mm pistols. The details are at this site: https://www.fbo.gov/index?s=opportunity&mode=form&id=1ec06eceeb93fabb2f163118a889e278&tab=core&_cview=0 When you go to the above site, look for the...

    Drone Legislation?

    By now, I suppose you all have seen the overblown headline about a "drone" crashing on the White House lawn. In fact, the story seemed to say that a hobbyist accidentally dropped his two foot long remote controlled toy quad copter on the WH lawn. This is typical media over blowing of...

    It is officially the season, so I would like to ask each of you to indulge me long enough for me to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to all military personnel, whether full-time, part-time, regardless of branch. Without each of you, we would not be free to exercise the rights for which our Founding...

    M&P 9 sku 151215 New LE Model

    I was able to briefly examine, prior to it being picked up and taken by the customer, the new sku 151215, about which there has been some discussion on this Forum. For those who came in late, sku 151215 is the latest version of the M&P 9 Full Size LE model, and it has all of the improvements...
