    Sidearms & Scatterguns So with a 10 round+ ban...

    Re: So with a 10 round+ ban... I was working in a huge gun store in Kali and was there thru the 89',94'and the 99' bans.I can tell you the 94 magazine capacity ban pretty much spawned 2 things.One was the "mini" combat guns, Glocks,sigs,etc.And the second was the resurgance of the 1911.I...

    Rifle Scopes All the new Dr. type sights

    I've been looking at the various Dr type sights being made now by Leupold,J-P,Burris,Trijicon,etc,and have been thinking about having one installed on my Glock.I really like the setup Bowie Tactical is using with an additional rear sight being installed in front of the optic (Buis).My question...

    Suppressors I would like a Glock 17l?

    Re: I would like a Glock 17l? I paid $600 for mine,as opposed to $470 for my 19.From what I've been told by a big wholesaler,Glock only produces the 17L in small runs maybe once a year,which is why they get scarce at times.

    This months issue of the American Rifleman has an ad of the 45acp 3.8" stls. XDM.Theres no info such as specs,just a pic of a stls slide model.and the SA website has no info yet.I'm interested to see if they expanded the capacity on the 45's like they did on the 9's and 40's.

    Suppressors Glock front sight question

    I picked up a Glock 19 late last year and recently went to install a set of sights.I got the rear on ok,but I'm having a hell of a time removing the front sight.Unlike the Glocks of ten years ago,which just had the plastic units you could remove with a pair of pliers,mine has a better,all steel...

    Rifle Scopes NF or IOR ?

    Which scope would you go with if you were looking for a $1600-$2000 scope with at least 25X magnification for long range (1000yd+) use? I have several NF NXS's,but have been thinking about getting one of the new IOR's for my next build (7WSM).Thanks
