      Bullseye shooting with Ruger Mk III

      Bullseye I too suffer from small hands, and have tried a few grips on my 1911 and Ruger to make them comfortable. I had the Volthane on the Ruger originally, but it was just 'OK'. I lusted after the Vitarbos (despite the cost) until I got to handle someone else's and realized they were just...

      Mcree stock

      Have a MCree hunter (predates the current G5 series) on a 7005R 300 WM. Works great and very adjustable. The benefit of the folding stock is twofold: 1 if you have a longer barrel it can ride in a smaller case; 2 makes cleaning MUCH easier when you can rotate the stock to the side, pull the...

      Glock 17 conv to .22

      Glock .22 kit I have, use, and recommend the http://www.advantagearms.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=SFNT&Store_Code=AASOS Advantage Arms .22 kit. It's a simple but effective training tool that replaces the slide, barrel and magazine with no other modifications needed. Works well for...

      first handgun for my wife

      Good going. Keep her interested and soon she'll be looking for her next gun... When she wants to increase her caliber, try the S&W 686, it's the same size, shape and trigger as the 617 only in .38/.357. Makes for a nice companion piece. -Jeff

      first handgun for my wife

      <flashback> Good for you staying positive- that's important for her. I recall having a female student once who had that very same reaction- had fired a Glock before (so she said) but one round out of a G17 had her dang near breaking down. (she ended up finishing the course with a S&W 586)...

      Contemplating a S&W 629 V-Comp

      My S&W PC 629-5 First version (IIRC) to move the firing pin off the hammer. Pre-lock model. My favorite range .44. The front 'comp' (not V-comp) unscrews and can be replaced with a non-comped shroud for when you want lead or plated bullets. Can go from mild to wild (especially if you...

      IWB Glock 17 holster?

      I've been pretty happy with my Galco King Tuk (Crossbreed clone) for less then $50. Only a month of wear on it, but it shows good promise (G26 for reference). -Jeff

      Recommendations for a .22 DA revolver

      I picked up a good condition used 617 as a plinker for myself and as a training tool to step up to a 686 (both 4" barrels). It's worth the money. The same concept- I use an advantage arms .22 kit for the G17, and a Kimber .22 kit for a Custom series II .45. Use the same manual of arms with...

      FreeState Gun Range Update 13FEB2011

      New Range... Outstanding. :thumbsup: Glad things are going well. Don't worry though- even if the range isn't perfect to start with, there are more than enough folks here happy to 'assist' and offer their opinion.:innocent0 -Jeff

      Long range .22LR ammo for CZ 452?

      .22 at 200... I've done it, but it takes some doing (and good wind reading). I set up a Savage Mk II BTV thumbhole for plinking at 100 and 200 yrds. Was doing some ammo testing (lots of variation at that range) and was settling on Wolf Match Target as a standard when 3rdRcn gave me a box of...
