    Sigma striker guide

    S&W seemed to make the change to white around the 3rd gen Sigma pistols. I have come across E model 3rd gen Sigmas that still have the black plastic parts though so it must have been around the time the SW9/40VE versions hit the market. The white are the same dimensionally. Seems like the...

    How do I kill off an underground yellowjacket nest?

    Soap dish soap water works best and doesnt kill your plants. Theres a bunch of ways you can do it. I dont know what idiot thought boiling soapy water would matter. As soon as the soapy water covers their body they suffocate. Best to do this late at night. If you cant find their second...

    Gun oil or gun grease??

    TW-25b temp range is listed on the box as -90F to 450F. I dont know what Frog snot is but Im guessing you are referring to Frog Lube. Seems like one of those fancy named ones used coconut oil in it but I cant remember to be sure. Wilson had a grease as well that was basically white...

    Gun oil or gun grease??

    My mains are Tw25 for greasing slide rails and Balistol for oil. The only exception is on all stainless pistols I use FP-10 shooters choices due to galling. Surplus pistols like Tokarevs that like to run wet I just use Cheap White Lithium Grease before shooting and then clean once home...

    Bodyguard 2.0 issues and some potential solutions -

    Good to hear they are feeding Flat point 380acp because I have seen some reviews where that was causing problems and thats my preference.

    Heritage Rough Rider

    Beware Rough Riders can be extremely addicting if you are heavy into casual plinking or just like to shoot cheap. My two sons have a ton of trigger time on Rough Riders and I think we are up to 7 Rough Riders as of now to the point I have a spare parts always on hand. I wouldnt expect target...

    .380 Bodyguards

    Lots of neat stuff on that table. I dont see many of those Walther Ultra Pistols anymore and always wanted one. CZ-70s are always underrated for a good 32 but the prices have gotten pretty high these days for nice samples. I only have one CZ70 because I was focussed on Makarovs more than...

    This fell off my bodyguard 2.0

    Give it a year or so and S&W will have all the bugs worked out. Its not really a Bodyguard. S&W was kind of dumb to name it a bodyguard 2.0 when it strays so much from the original. I basically expect anything new to have teething problems these days in the first year. Sometimes its just...

    WOW! GROSS! BUT A PINK TOILET BOWL RING MIGHT BE LINKED TO DIABETICS!

    Funny reading this on a gun forum. Well.. foaming urine is a sign of protein and the kidneys not working properly. Something to be aware of for protein fanatic's. Too much protein will do nasty things to the body. Peoples bodies all out of whack these days. Most grown adults cant even...

    .380 Bodyguards

    Looks good. Hopefully S&W doesn't discontinue these because there a not a whole lot of pocket 380s out there anymore that are true DAO and more "Pocket Carry" friendly. Those new Bodyguards 2.Os are neat but not DAO. Beretta Pico is gone. All the Taurus Pocket 380s have been discontinued...

    Sw9ve barrel work in a sd9ve?

    They are interchangeable unless the new 2.0s changed something but I doubt it. That taper on the SD barrels is just to improve feeding and reduce weight. You will see that on 1911s sometimes. Some of the 3rd gen sigmas had overly tight barrels. One of my Ported Sigma 3rd Gens is so tight its...

    Need OEM parts for SW9VE

    Sometimes Glock parts will fit. I have a parts bin for Sigmas.. actually 3 parts bins but Ive been shooting Sigmas for a long time since back when they were futuristic. The Glock Spring cups will fit. Ive seen videos where people claim that the 3rd gen glock extractor components fit but have...

    Promag 17 round magazine

    Whos insulting? Look.. I actually own some of the Sigma promags. Its obvious most if not all in this thread have not. That gives me experience with these particular magazines in question and Ive been using aftermarket magazines and tuning them to function since shortly before the days of the...

    Promag 17 round magazine

    Well like I said sometimes you have to get them running. They are not all junk and anyone who pushes that type of generic nonsense across the board with such a broad brush on the net doesnt have a whole lot of credibility IMO in terms of how magazines actually work. Internet is a strange place...

    SD10VE

    Its doable but like you say it would take at the least a beefed up frame. The Sigma/ SD series frames are not what I would consider the strongest as is and when people buy 0MMs its kind of a given they should be able to handle full to Max power 10MM since thats the entire point. The Sigma/SD...

    Promag 17 round magazine

    Some of Promags magazines work surprisingly well and function fine while others can need reworking. The Sigma Magazines they make dont really compare to factory quality in terms of build. The gage of steel they use on the sigma magazines seems a bitt thinner than S&W. The Magazine Spring is...

    SW40VE

    To the OP.. Dont feel bad I still carry my Sigmas on a regular basis and continue to shoot them at the range regularly. Other than smoothing out the factory triggers I have never done much to them as I felt S&W had them basically dialed in from the get go other than a few manufacturing issues...

    Are the SD series reliable enough for a car gun??

    P11 is an underated gun. If your accuracy is bad try the aftermarket trigger with the overtravel screw. There is also a steel magazine catch out there that works great and doesnt wear out like the oem plastic part. I carry one when I go running at night. Its Keltecs best pistol IMO. More...

    SW9F recoil spring GUIDE ROD problems

    Its fairly common for this to happen. I have experienced it on more than one occasion. Its a badly designed part. Wolff has a solid steel rod but you cant use factory s&w springs on it. Ebay seller offers one made of steel that works with the factory spring Or you can get another assembly...
