      F.Y.I we received the pistol from Walther three weeks after we mailed it to them for repair. The pistol works fine. Really good service.

      Attention Walther CCP Owners: Important Safety Recall

      Sig P239 short reset trigger

      Following up on my previous comments, I did send my P239 back to Sig Sauer for the "short reset trigger" modification. Turn-around was about three weeks from the time I dropped it off at FedEx. I haven't fired it yet but will sometime during this week. Dry firing revealed the gritty feel is...

      Sig P239 short reset trigger

      Thank you for your input. It was most helpful. I contacted Sig earlier today and my pistol is on its way to the custom shop. I'm looking forward to getting it back in about three weeks.

      Sig P239 short reset trigger

      I'm thinking about sending my P239 to the Sig Custom Shop for the instillation of a short reset trigger package. Their web site states that the package will reduce trigger reset travel about 60%. Sounds like a pretty good upgrade and I'm definitely interested. I'm curious if anyone reading...

      CCW insurance

      CCW Safe seems like a pretty good deal particularly for active duty and retired military and/or LEO's. They advertise "no out of packet expenses, caps or limits" but my understanding is that their coverage is focused on legal expenses. That's half of what's required, the other half being civil...

      Fiber optic sights

      Thank you for your input, it was most helpful. The pistol I want to upgrade is a Sig 239. I do carry it concealed from time to time so it does serve as an occasional defensive weapon. I hadn't thought about the Tritium front / black back sight combination but I like the idea. For me, simple is...

      Fiber optic sights

      I'm exploring the idea of replacing the sights on my pistol with a good set of fiber optic sights. I don't have any experience with fiber optics and I'm curious about the experiences others have had with them. For instance, do they enhance one's sight picture or are they a distraction. Your...

      Went to the Monroe Gun Show today and

      That sounds encouraging. The last few shows I've been to in the Baton Rouge area fell short of expectations. Perhaps things are looking up.

      I absolutely agree with Wolfgang, they are sitting ducks.

      10 shot 6 inch S&W 617

      Smith & Wesson's model 17 is a really nice revolver. They are nicely finished, well balanced, mechanically sound and very accurate if memory serves me correctly. And, sadly, I do not now own one. One the other hand, I do own a model 617 - 5 (six inch barrel, six shot revolver). Stainless...
