Uhh..I'm pretty sure tha Shield has fewer parts than the 1911. This sounds like a manufacturing defect issue, not a parts count issue.

I'm not a LEO but I used to hunt with a fellow who had a pre 64 winchester '94. He claimed it used to belong to the county sheriff and had been put to its intended use at least once. It was a pretty gun and the story added to the mystique (even if it wasn't true).

He wrote a great book titled "Handgun Hunting", which included stories of AutoMags, Cap and Ball boar hunts, and a black bear hunt in Tellico with a pair of then new series 70's with Lee Jurras. Great book.

I would say its a bit too much but being from Texas and all...you need to get a Beadazzler and bling that thing out just a bit more, it's kind of subdued by Texican standards.

In all seriousness, I like it a lot and think it looks great.

. Sorry, but I can't bring myself to watch Longmire, at all - nevermind an entire show or season. IMO, the show was made for absorption by wannabe's. .

I may have a chance to buy a Winchester M94 Wrangler in .44 Mag. The gun is an AE model with a crossbolt safety and is in very good condition except two small rubbed spots on the barrel where the gun was riding in a rack. Do you guys have any idea of a possible value and are there any warts on the 9...

If you are O.K. With a 5 shot snub, a 7+1 shot 9mm of essentially equal power with faster reloads should be a an EASY decision. For that matter, if you are O.K. With a 7+1 or 8+1 1911 in .45, a 7+1 9mm should be just fine for you too. I have a Shield and love it.

Looks like a good inexpensive solution there! At least until the toddler can climb. They can climb VERY HIGH at a VERY YOUNG age, so you'd best be working on Phase-II already... The above is true.

Purple is great when you want to be able to adjust the screw and have it remain stuck after adjustment. I have used it on the opposing windage screws on a Mini 14 that would walk loose in short order. They are now adjustable and I do not have to reapply after adjustment. Not that it matters, but I u...

I tend to side with Mike. I am sure almost any oil mixed with a solvent works to some degree or another. I personally use so little of the stuff over the course of a year that the cost savings for me are negligible at best. The same goes for using ATF or Mobil 1 oil on guns. I have no objection to i...

I am not very vell versed on the Mauser action. The Husqvarna 4100 has a Mauser like action (long claw, non-rotating extractor).

My pre 64 would occasionally end up cramming the nose of the bullet into the top of the chamber (near the extractor cutout). I didn't know much at the time, and was sold a post 64 carrier that was represented to me as a pre 64. That obviously did not work. My gunsmith had to weld up and cut back dow...

I am assuming one of these might work, I just have no idea which one. http://www.midwayusa.com/find?userSearchQuery=williams+front+sight I also am looking at this, but I can't tell if I need a 31N (that's my guess), a 26N, or perhaps even a 45W. http://www.brownells.com/UserDocs/Miscellaneous/Marble...

Pre 64, you should have bought if you had the funds. Post 64, still a good deal, but not as much.

If you still like the idea of an autoloading pack rifle,, I would buy a 10-22 takedown, some Ruger 25 round mags, and take care with the scope mount. That combo is lighter and more packable than the folding abominations, and is typically more accurate than a standard 10-22 (hard to believe but true).

Mike, it is good to see you back at home where you are comfortable. My strategy is always to get out of the hospital as fast as I can! It sounds like the Dr's did a good job, and you are surrounded by family, friends, and fine leverguns. Best wishes on a speedy recovery.

No exit wound and I didn't butcher him so I don't know the penetration, but, as Jerry Clower would say, it killed him graveyard ...

Mine has been 100% reliable and groups well. No optics yet, so I can't comment on group size without invoking my shooting ability, but it outshoots my other 10-22. It is a very cool and well designed piece of kit.

If a 45 ACP is not adequate for a deer, it is not adequate for self-defense either. Aside from a psychological stop, a large man is more stoutly constructed than a deer.

Trying to describe why the 10 is good to someone who doesn't have one is hard. It is a great round, every bit as versatile as the .357 but with a bigger/heavier projectile and more energy. If your hands fit the guns it is chambered in, there is no better choice for a do-it-all auto caliber. The 10mm...

While not for the purist, I'll say Ruger's plastic parts will likely outlast us all. They don't affect shape, form, function or accuracy. So I'm good with plastic.
