      J2 Defense closed?

      J2 is open Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 11am till 2pm. Jennifer (John's wife) is trying to get the business squared away and plans to keep it open, but there are still issues with having the personnel available to keep it open during those hours. Consequently, I would suggest that...

      Question by 'beretta_maven' on classified ad '***SOLD*** Browning BDA 380'

      Would you be willing to ship to my FFL (Medusa Munitions in Hollywood, MD)? I would of course pay shipping costs. I have my HQL. Best regards, Jan McNulty

      Staccato CS

      Last week I put a deposit on the Staccato CS at Flat Broke Shooters in Lexington Park. According to the owners, they put in an order for 20 of them and had already had deposits on 18 (I think I was #18). So evidently, there are a LOT of folks wanting the CS!

      Staccato CS

      I am also leaning this direction...most of my purchases in the past year have been OR guns and I am considering having a few of my favorite non-OR guns milled for an optic. The only reason I was even considering the SFX9 was that I handled one at the Chantilly gunshow a few months back and the...

      Staccato CS

      Flat Broke Shooters in Lexington Park (SoMD) is a Staccato dealer. I purchased a P and C2 from them. I don't believe they are allowed to discount the prices, since you have to become an authorized dealer to sell them. I absolutely love the Staccato P. just a touch more than the C2. However, I am...

      For all you Beretta fan boys

      I have an 84FS, 85FS, Browing BDA, and used to have a 92FS Vertec (one of the guns I kick myself for selling). The Vertec version has a 1911 style grip (18 degree angle) and is slimmer than the standard 92/96 grip - it was originally designed to help people with smaller hands. The new 80X has a...

      Medusa Munitions at Nation's Gun Show (Chantilly VA) Nov 18-20, 2022

      Yes it has...I was just commenting on Medusa Munitions. Great FFL to work with...they specialize in reloading supplies and have the lowest transfer fees I have found.

      Browning BDA-380

      Thanks for the info. I do like to do a little gunsmithing but at my age, my fingers don't work well with small parts, but I will still do a little research.

      Medusa Munitions at Nation's Gun Show (Chantilly VA) Nov 18-20, 2022

      Have nothing but good things to say about Medusa Munitions...they have handled several transfers for me, including one at the Chantilly gun show. Great people and super prices!

      Browning BDA-380

      I purchased a new Browning BDA 380 back in 1982. When I was originally looking at it, I was torn between the BDA and a Beretta 84, but the Browning had nice wood grips and the Beretta had plastic grips, so I ended up picking the BDA (yes, a stupid reason to make a decision like that, but hey, I...

      Is .40 S&W DOA?

      I actually have an M&P Compact (1.0, not the 2.0) in .40, with a 9mm conversion barrel and mags for both. I am getting ready to sell it since I also have an M&P 2.0 4" (.40) compact and 2.0 M&P subcompact (9mm). I also have an Apex trigger upgrade for it that I haven't installed yet. PM me if...

      Kimber R7 Mako

      I have one and really love it. My only issue is trying to get magazines for it... I have been all over VA and even had them on order through Big Dogs (VA) for almost 3 months, but they can't seem to get them. Regarding magazines, I even went to a big tent event at Green Top in Richmond several...
