      Favorite handgun to shoot and why?

      I love shooting my 1911’s I just bought a Rhino in 357 Magnum and have fallen in love with it. For a lightweight revolver, the recoil is not bad and it’s accurate.

      New member to the 1911 gang now!

      I bought my first 1911 in 1988. I have six of them now. Even though I have several other handguns, the1911 is my favorite to shoot.

      Digging through Grandpa’s Stuff

      Try standing outside against the wall after throwing a frag grenade into a building. It really gets your adrenaline going. But the guy in the building probably just shits his pants. I’m glad that I was the guy throwing and not the guy in the building.

      Digging through Grandpa’s Stuff

      It’s not called a baseball, it’s a M67 Fragmentation. I have one that was for as a class demo. The fuse is gone and the body is empty. I also have a couple of the cheap dummies.

      Most Difficult Gun to Reassemble?

      I was wondering if anyone was going to say the REM. Nylon 66. If you have never tried to put a Nylon 66 back together, you don’t know what you’re missing. I am amazed at how many people have trouble putting Ruger MK I & II’s pistols back together. There are two parts that you have to make...

      Where do you shop for C&R guns?

      Check with Dan’s Sporting Goods. https://www.dansammo.com/ He’s a buyer for PW Arms, which is one of the larger importers. He also runs their warehouse in PA. Or you can wait till next month to see what I’ll be selling out of my collection.

      Shaving

      New Ride

      That was the first riding mower that I used. That was many years ago. You need to post updated pics after you mount a cup holder and a holster for you gun/ guns.:D

      P365/P365XL History.

      Look at that. Starting on page three and nothing other then the OPs original post is about the P365. The original original post left out the growing pains that the P365 had. One of the biggest was the strikers. If I remember correctly they update the strikers twice to correct the problem with...

      Sig 365xl vs G19 gen 5 MOS vs PDP compact

      Now I remember why I haven’t posted much here at Bayou Shooter. Topics like this are like watching people eat different types of cereal with **** instead of milk. And then each person is trying to justify how his taste better.:zombie: But then there are a lot of people that tend to know a lot...

      Sig 365xl vs G19 gen 5 MOS vs PDP compact

      Have a good look at the Glock 48. If you like a shorter slide, look at the 43X. Both guns use the same frame. I already had a Glock 43 so, I bought a Glock 48. I now have the option of putting the 43 slide on the 48 frame it I want a shorter slide. The 48 is basically the same size as the 19...

      1022

      The mystery hard wood is Birch. The stain is mixed with the finish and then sprayed on. UV light is then used in the drying process to make the finish hard. The wood under the finish is pretty much white to a light tan. $249 is not bad these days for a 10/22. I’ve always liked the 10/22...
