      Pistol for my Girlfriend?

      My wife fell for the Beretta PX4 Storm Subcompact in 9mm. She has been very happy with her choice.

      Another random scenario...

      I'm not a doctor...nor have I played one on TV. Without the appropriate training and equipment, I believe my best effort would be to call the appropriate emergency personnel immediately following the event, when safe to do so.

      Man this is an expensive "hobby"...

      I've been tracking firearm and ammo purchases (sans accessories), mostly to track ammo inventory, usage, and average cost per round per caliber. When I look at the totals it can be quite sobering...

      Springfield Armory XDm 4.5" 9mm - Slide jammed on a live round

      Thank you all for your feedback. The magazine was ejected first thing, and the slide could not be moved manually with a normal grip. However, I did clear the gun using a little more cowbell...er...force: I placed the grip safety against a carpeted stair, and holding a block of wood against...

      Springfield Armory XDm 4.5" 9mm - Slide jammed on a live round

      An enjoyable hour at the range was upset today by an apparent failure to feed on a round of Fiocchi 115gr FMJ in my SA XDm 4.5" 9mm pistol. After the 3rd round, the slide cycled and the 4th round was stripped from the magazine - but at this point, something went wrong. The slide did not return...

      XD mag. release problem

      I am experiencing the same thing with my XDm 9mm. I found comments online suggesting it was just a break-in issue. A full mag is difficult to lock in, unless the slide is locked back, and a full mag is difficult to eject, unless the slide is locked back or I apply additional pressure on the...

      New XD 45

      The Springfield Gear Up promotion was for purchases made between October 15, 2008 and January 15, 2009. Prior to purchasing my XDm 9mm earlier this month, I wrote Springfield on the off chance that they would tell me of any similar promotions waiting in the wings. The reply was that the sales...
