      Carry weapons for women?

      I've had Walther PPK/S', Sig Sauer P230 and Sig Sauer P232 all in .380 and none of them liked hollow point ammo. I got rid of all my .380 guns except my Colt .380 Government. Most of the Walther CCP's we sell are in 9mm. Haven't gotten any complaints about ammo yet. I understand the...

      Carry weapons for women?

      You may also want to try a Walther CCP. We sell a lot of them to people who have a hard time racking the slide. On par with the Smith and Wesson EZ, minus the grip safety. The downsides are 8 round capacity and not optic ready.

      Selling a Rifle for a Friend in MD?

      The legal owner of the firearms, who is now the widow of your friend (my sympathies to you and her) must bring the guns to the FFL doing the transfer. As her friend, go with her and help her through the process. You can help find a buyer, and negotiate the prices for her. I work at a gun shop...

      Looking into a compact

      A couple others to check out are the Sig Sauer P365x and the FN Reflex.

      Wear and Carry Permit Gun

      A couple others to consider are the Springfield Hellcat, Hellcat Pro, Sig Sauer P365 series, Kimber Mako, and the Smith and Wesson Shield Plus. I agree with Slackdaddy on the Shield EZ grip safety, it's not for everyone.

      Oaks, PA Gun Show Jun 10-13, 2022

      I guess no one went? Oaks to me is usually overpriced. Add $5 a gallon gas and no surprise.

      Whats the process of selling your handguns

      As Mike OTDP said, a trade may be your best bet. Perhaps a local gun show may be the opportunity to trade with a dealer for your Glock, or you may find someone that would be willing to buy your gun outright. It's easy, fairly inexpensive, and convenient. Just make sure it's in a case and check...

      Morgantown, PA; April 23, 24, & 25

      I went today. Easy to get in and move around. High prices, especially ammo, but stuff is available. Picked up some mags and cleaning supplies. I would go back again.

      States push for allowing concealed carry of guns without permit

      Isn't licensing to carry a firearm enacted by these states? Why not just repeal the draconian laws they enacted? Only government could pass more laws relating to existing laws, you know like the Constitution, Amendment 2......

      legality of home defense with firearm

      There is no silver bullet, there are no "special words" that you need to tell the police when they arrive. Protecting your life or the lives of your family is the same whether or not you are home or not. If your life or someone else's is in immediate danger, deadly force CAN be used. I'm not...

      Catastrophic Hardware Failure at MSP Data Center

      Not sure if they are 100% back online, but I just got my "Not Disapproved" email from MSP. Looks like progress.

      Catastrophic Hardware Failure at MSP Data Center

      I guess the Commodore 64 finally died. Ebay is out of parts too. Can't they just call the Geek Squad and get it fixed?

      MSP Licensing takes too long to generate two-factor email?

      I had an issue this morning, trying to log in. Sent an email to the firearm purchase section and was back up by noon. Everything seems to be working now. They must have figured out the bug.

      357 Sig super dead

      No we will not. Good luck to everyone looking for these. Federal agencies are not allowed to sell their surplus directly to employees or others. Usually they sell them in a lot to the new supplier who parcels them out. They are usually in pretty good shape, we put new slide assemblies on all...

      357 Sig super dead

      I can confirm that my agency is dropping the Sig Sauer P229 in .357 Sig in favor of the 9mm Glock. Several reasons, most of them I agree with: - ammo is crazy expensive - new shooters are intimidated by the .357 Sig round as it makes a louder bang (not kidding, this was a concern...) - Sig...
