      Carry weapons for women?

      Already done. Failures on all 4 magazines. Two came with the gun, two were bought separately. All new Walther factory magazines.

      Carry weapons for women?

      I can settle for finicky if I can find some ammo that works. I wouldn't claim success with the two brands that didn't have failures after only 50 rounds of each. Only after a few hundred rounds without a failure will I feel better about the gun.

      Carry weapons for women?

      New republic is a FMJ but it is somewhat cone shaped. Yes, Federal is very round as is the Speer Lawman. The Winchester that i tried are FMJ flat nose.

      Carry weapons for women?

      Winchester (50 rounds - three failures), Federal (50 rounds, one failure) and Speer Lawman (400 rounds, 9 failures). All FMJ 95 grain. Precision One XTP and New Republic were clean but i have only shot one box each of these. I am hoping these might be the ticket as the bullet shape is...

      Carry weapons for women?

      I bought a CCP in 380 in February. It is very soft shooting, the slide racks easily, and fits my hand nicely. In my opinion it is not reliable enough for carry purposes. I have counted 13 failures to feed the last or next to last round out of 600 rounds fired. It has been back to Walther but it...

      VA Handgun Permits

      I renewed mine. It is easier to renew than it is to have to apply for a new permit if I let it expire and later change my mind. It is annoying that I need a new set of fingerprint cards for the renewal.

      York PA gun show March 2nd, 3rd 2024

      Is there a date code on the box? It could be that this is ammo that has been sitting in a police department storage room for years.

      Beretta 92S

      Does the 92S use a same locking block as a more modern Beretta?

      Arisaka Identification

      If you can see the holes you could also read the numbers. top rifle says: 99 type (same symbol twice is the clue) bottom says 38 type (first symbol has three lines - that's a three)

      Holster while running help

      I figure that I tallied about 1000 miles (150 hours) of running with that setup. With a smaller, lighter gun like a Ruger LCP it would be much easier to find a workable solution.

      P08 experts ?

      Sounds right. Those 4 digits (plus suffixes?) indicate the pistol number built by that manufacturer in that particular year. So a Erfurt/1918 might have a serial number of 1234. There is also likely a DWM/1918 with a serial number 1234. And possibly a Erfurt/1918 with a serial number 1234a.

      Carry weapons for women?

      The FN Reflex is very similar in size to the SIG P365. Being hammer fired it is supposedly easier to rack than the SIG P365. I have no personal experience with the Reflex but it might be worth a look.
