Will they be ok with the original black hard case that my M&P compact came in?

Does anyone sell a complete slide machined for an RMR for a 1.0 compact?

I've been shooting a lot of my son in laws reloads. 23.8 grains of Benchmark / 55gr FMJ X-treme. They shoot great, and I can't beat the price, free for X-mas and Birthdays. But I occasionally see one where the bullet is pushed back in the case against the powder. I've caught a handful while...

I'm actually confused about this. House Bill 779 will, in addition to decriminalizing O/C, make it ok to briefly expose your gun. However, I have studied handgunlaw.us 790.053 and it states clearly that as long as it is not exposed in an angry or threatening manner, this is not a violation...

My 40c functions perfectly so this may be a non-issue. But when I do a press check, if I release the slide too gently it doesn't return to battery. If I do it slingshot style and release it, it works fine. A gentle push is all it takes to fix it, but I can't help wondering if I should replace...

I love my Sport II for it's simplicity, and I don't want to hang a bunch of stuff on it. But I'd like an inexpensive drop in key-mod hand guard. I hate the looks of Magpul hand guards, but really can't see paying much more. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Is it harmful to the buffer spring to keep an AR stored with the bolt locked back. I know that springs are supposed to wear out only through repeated compression and release. I keep all mags loaded, but for some reason I don't feel as comfortable leaving my rifle with the bolt back, safety on...

I thought the trigger on my Sport II was ok for an out of the box mil-spec gun. Not that I have much to compare to. Compared to my 40c, the take up was almost nonexistent, and certainly not as gritty. Though it was a little heavy, I could live with it. Especially with the price of...

I posted on the ammo forum about some Federal 180 gr HST's I have that have an indented ring around the case at the base of the bullet. They were all loaded and unloaded in mags at least a few times before I noticed the rings. Federal insists it is a magazine issue, and they sent photos of...

These 180 gr HST's have an indented ring around the case at the base of the bullet. Some all the way around, others only part way, some not at all. Out of a box of 50, only 12 look perfect. I didn't notice this until after I had loaded them into mags and fired some with no malfunctions. But...

My Sport II came with a Gen 2 Pmag. I've since picked up three gen 3's. I have noticed that the gen 2 holds the top few rounds more loosely than the 3's. The second round will occasionally tilt up at the nose, level with the first round. I obviously can't tell if this happens once inserted...

I actually like the stock hand guard on my Sport II. I have no plans to hang a bunch of heavy gear on it, but a Q.D. sling swivel would be nice. Does anyone know of one that attaches without the rail sections that you screw into the vent holes.

My new Sport II came with a few minor scratches on the front sight/gas block, and the forward assist button. Is there a way to touch it up that will not be more noticeable than the scratch.

I had to cut the session short when my glasses broke, but I was impressed with the trigger. Almost no take up, fairly clean break with little over travel and nice short reset. I don't really have much to compare it with. I have never owned an AR, but next to my AK, it's like night and day.

My LGS told me last week that the wait for my new M&P Sport II would be a couple of weeks. I didn't think to ask how long ago they had sold their last one or how many people were ahead of me. I don't mind a wait, but something tells me his two week estimate was probably a bit optimistic. Any...

This may not be the right forum, and it's probably a dumb question, but here goes. I'm going to pick up a nightstand gun for my wife. A Rossi 2" 357 mag. Model R46202. It looks very Smith like. I seem to remember hearing years ago that Taurus revolvers were based on older S&W designs, and...

My first AR, and I have a question. Is there any brand or type of ammo I should stay away from. I'd hate to buy in bulk only to find my gun doesn't like it. I made that mistake with some 40S&W.

I am getting geared up for my first IDPA match. I wear prescription glasses with plastic lenses. I have shades that fit over them but they are not "shooting glasses". The shooting glasses I have looked at are sturdier than the shades, but not the prescription pair. My LGS tells me my glasses...

I occasionally see complaints here about S&W customer service. I just called them about an issue with my 40c. In the course of our conversation, he asked if my striker was black or silver. I told him it was black. He said that it was the old design and offered to send a new replacement free...

Every brand I've looked at seems to be sold as a set, front and rear. I prefer my rear sight blacked out. Does anyone know of a source with an "Ala Cart" menu?
