  1. The G-men: G2, G3, and Millennium Pistols
    Took my new G3C to the range today! All in all it's reliable so far. I found a deal on some 147 gr Hydra Shoks so I picked up a box of those on the way and brought a few rounds of some Federal Punch I had for my other 9. It ran perfectly through a box of fmj and 7 rounds of Hydra Shok. It did...
  2. Factory Loads
    I have a small batch of Remington UMC 115GR. I shot this batch years ago with a Gen1 mill pro and dont recall any major failures/issues. Replaced the G1 with the G2C. Took it to the range and kept getting FTF. Bought a box of Fiocchi 124GR at the range and it greatly reduced the failures...

    $135 shipped is beyond fair. I accept PayPal F&F, Cash App, Zelle, or Gpay. I will also accept cash or USPS money order for those outta date folks. :nono: Fired under 60 rounds flawlessly before switching to optics ready slide. Fits all OEM and aftermarket Glock parts. Will need a striker...
    $135 USD
  4. Other Handguns
    These are both recent purchases and considered duty or service size pistols. The Sig was born around 2006, the M&P is a newborn from 2021. The Sig was about $650 otd and the M&P found for cheap on GB for $415 otd. Oh in case you don't know S&W has released there new versions of the M&P 2.0's...

    I have been collecting icon's from the mid 80's through the mid 90's. First was my west German P226, then the CZ 75B, and now an American icon, the 5906: I found this ignored beauty on GB, and won the bid at $450. The seller sold cheaper due to the finish issue on the front of the slide. As you...

    You know how it goes, go into a gun shop to pick something up and the lonely pistols start dancing and yelling your name..Well maybe its just me. So this story starts innocently enough - My fav LGS also sells fireworks, went there yesterday to pick up more ground works for my Grandkid's stash...

    I say unbiased because I have shot/owned almost every S&W semi auto during the last 10 years, and I feel I can give ya'all a real review. What they did right with this update, and what they got wrong. The new Shield is presented as previous M&P's, So-So cardboard box, manual, nice wrap, and in...
  8. Taurus 1911's
    Saw another poster on another forum talking about their odd-caliber ria so i figured I'd take my .22 tcm 2011 for a walk. I had 5 new magazines and a set of hogue wraparounds to test out along with my now clean ejector that was previously too dirty to function. Filled each mag to 16 rounds twice...

    I watch gunbroker often for old metal guns, but could never find an old P226 for close to precovid pricing..I know I am nuts!!! I decided to try out a web store I visit for old surplus metal guns and Eureka!! Iammo.com had 226's for a very good price, along with a bunch of gen 2 and 3 S&W...

    Having little self control when it comes to a challenge, I began scouring the web stores and gunbroker for a pre-covid priced pistol. My Daughter and her family are coming up for spring break, I am going to make good on my promise of last year to give her a firearm for her Birthday in 2020. One...
  11. Other Handguns
    Okay, here's the deal. This pistol started its life as the Crvena Zastava model 99 (CZ-99) made in Yugoslavia. It was an evolved Sig. During the Clinton administration, the Zastava factory was destroyed. As a result, the design was taken to South Africa, where Tressitsu produced it. Combining...
  12. Other Long Arms
    Installed my optic ( Bresser Turkey True View Reflex ) and an AFG. I know this isn't a shotgun, but that optic was priced right and made to handle 12 ga impulses so I figure it can handle 9mm. It took me 7 rounds to zero the optic at 50 yards. I can still use the sights with the optic off, or...

    Ready for another story along with an unusual PCC review, well sit back, grab your favorite beverage and lets get to it. The Extar EP9 has been on my radar for a few years. My continued search for light weight, compact long arms has yielded my M1 carbine - a battle rifle at around 5lbs. The...
  14. Other Handguns
    Well as with so many of my reviews this starts with a story. I bought a used M&P 1.0 compact early in 2020, because the 2.0 version while announced in 2019 was made of unobtainium. So I went all in on the used 1.0 and installed some new parts/polished/added Talon grips and began to test for...
  15. Reloads
    I am not necessarily desperate, but indications are that I will be if there’s no improvement in product availability, so as Mick Jagger sang, You can’t always get what you want! I ordered 1000 bullets, 38 Super, 121gr JHP .356” diameter. I’m guessing if I can load Berry’s plated, which are .356”...
  16. The G-men: G2, G3, and Millennium Pistols
    The sun was out, the temps were moderate, no wind. It must be time to let two of my favorite budget pistols battle it out. Today's match up is a Brazilian up and comer versus another German surprise contender. The Taurus G3 and the Walther Creed. Both of these pistol's street price is similar...
  17. The G-men: G2, G3, and Millennium Pistols
    I took my new Taurus G3 and my winter carry, Walther PPQ out for some range work this afternoon. After days of rain, washed out roads, and a freeze this morning. The early afternoon was beautiful, so it was time to work out the new G3. Also for my bench review follow this link...

    The reviews just keep on coming, for my third one this week I chose to review a used redbox Sig P320 in the carry size frame. I found this pistol at my favorite LGS listed for $399. Its purchase was covered by some of my trade ins and I got $20 off the asking price, so $379 OTD. This is what...

    I don't know how I missed hearing about the Stoeger STR-9 when information regarding it was released at Shot Show 2019. While not there (unfortunately) I typically watch as many videos as possible by various people on YouTube that do get to attend. Last night while researching various...
