      Safe to Shoot?

      Ohh hell, something is way wrong with that stock then. Particularly if it doesn’t do that with the new stock. It almost sounds like the dang action is not properly bedded into the stock. Well bedded, I am old wood guy LOL. anyway, there should be enough meat in the stock for the action to...

      Safe to Shoot?

      I have never seen a synthetic stock split like that, somewhat like a wooden one would. But yep, it split from the screw hole.. I am going with some sort of defective stock.. and because it’s synthetic, who knows how it’s going to act. You can trust wood to split down the grain, there is no...

      An Overdue Discussion on .45 Auto

      Okay, so say you want a 45, but don't want a 1911? What are all the options.. Well to say the least, there are plenty. Beretta, FN, Glock, H&K, Hi-Point, Kahr, Ruger, Sig, S&W, Star, Taurus, and Wather just to name a few. Seems like a well supported cartridge to me. The cougar looks much...

      An Overdue Discussion on .45 Auto

      An 8045F Cougar is definitely on the get list for me. You can find Cougar made by Stoeger too. There was still life in the tooling when Beretta needed to make space for PX4 production in Italy, so they sent the Cougar tooling to Stoeger in Turkey to set up and run.. they still make runs of them...

      An Overdue Discussion on .45 Auto

      Well it seems we have a SIG party going here again. I just want to point out there are other viable options in 45. One of which is the PX4.. The PX4 uses a pretty neat rotary barrel locking system, that came from the Cougar series. This rotary system has far less things that can break and its...

      What is the most reliable handgun for Self Defense under $400

      Beretta. (this is from a 1987 FBI test) Glock failures were 95% failure to lock back, likely due to shooter riding the controls for the slide release.

      I need help.. I keep buying Beretta pistols..

      James Reeves on youtube said most of the failures were failure to lock open on an empty mag.. and that he thinks it was the testers bumping the slide stop. The FBI testing counted as a failure if it did not lock open on an empty mag. And it didn't in the end, the final report put the S&W 645...
