    Rossi Brawler

    If they could cut the weight down to 26 oz. then it might be attractive as a hikers and backpackers companion, for survival and wild animal defense on the trail.

    Rossi Brawler

    Thanks for the write-up. This thing is big, and moderately heavy at 37 ounces. What's the intended purpose of this gun? What can it do that a 5-shot .410 revolver like the Taurus Judge won't do? PS: The Judge is the same weight.

    Ruger LCRx .327 Federal Magnum Review (Video Included)

    I think the 327 Magnum was a great idea, and it's a shame that it didn't get more popular. The lack of popularity has created ammunition shortages, and that's going to make guns in this round even LESS attractive. Really, we need .32 caliber revolvers, and their ammo, to be as available, as...

  4. 12 yr review 20,000 rounds!

    I can't say for sure that your gun's jamming problems came from being dirty. I had a Ruger 10/22 that had feeding problems right out of the box, no mods, even with several different bullet types. It turned out to be that bullets were being shaved and gouged by the sharp upper edge of the face...

    Semi-auto Thompson "Tommy gun"

    This Independence Day weekend I got to shoot this recently made Auto-Ordnance THOMPSON 1927 carbine, in .45ACP. My thoughts: It's big, long, and HEAVY. 13 lbs. More than an M1 Garand! The length of pull of the buttstock is way too long for me, when shooting from any positions other than...

    H&R 649 SA/DA cowboy style

    More pics of this Harrington & Richardson model 649 revolver. With what I think is a 5" barrel.

    H&R 649 SA/DA cowboy style

    An elderly neighbor owns this gun, and we took it shooting several years ago, and again this week. He's got both the .22 LR and the .22 WMRF (Winchester Magnum Rim Fire) cylinders. When it's serving in a home defense role and something to have in hand when a potentially rabid fox or raccoon...

  8. Beretta model 70

    Pics. Note the location of the magazine release button. It's a flush-fitting button on the back lower quadrant of the right grip panel.

  9. Beretta model 70

    An elderly neighbor owns a Beretta model 70s in .380 caliber. This is a small, but rather hefty all-steel framed pistol with an empty weight of 23.8 oz, and loaded weight (7+ 1 capacity) of even more. The barrel is 3.5" and the sights are small and fixed. I got to shoot this gun a few years...

    Taurus Tracker .357 seven round cyl.

    Got to shoot this model 6" barreled stainless steel .357 magnum revolver yesterday. I myself own a S&W 66 in 6" also, and a friend brought this Taurus Tracker for us to use. It was lighter than I expected for its size. I don't know why, and I can't explain it. It holds 7 rounds, not 6 like...

    Charter Arms 9mm Revolver

    Shot a Charter Pitbull 5-shot 9mm revolver this weekend. It had the big, finger-groove runner grips as shown. It does NOT use clips. No full moon or half-moon clips. This cylinder is made to accept ordinary 9 x 19mm cartridges. They fit in the chambers fine and do eject, with firm pressure on...

  13. kel tec p3at- 380

    P.S. My brother liked my gun, but it looked and felt cheap to him. He bought a Kahr CW380. And then he added real tritium glowing night sights. His gun is somewhat better. Nicer trigger, and MUCH better open sights. Better practical accuracy. But he's got something like $600 invested in his gun...

  14. kel tec p3at- 380

    How did I miss this thread? I bought a Kel-Tec P3AT, used at a local gun & pawn shop, for $200 and it came with a red laser sight that clamps around the trigger guard. (This does reduce the size of the opening for your finger to fit in, but I can still use it pretty easily). I owned a P32 for...

    LLama xl 9mm 1911 style

    Does this model feed hollowpoint bullets? I had a Star model BM pistol (also made in Spain) that did not work reliably with most hollow points until I polished the throat of the barrel and the feed ramp. Even after that work it only worked with "some" HP bullets that had a profile that was...

    Should You Trust A $200 Shotgun For Home Defense? | Charles Daly 301 Review - GunBrand Review

    2 years ago I bought a Stevens 320 pump action (a knockoff of a Winchester 1200) made in CHINA, sold at WalMart for $149, I've used it for about 5 boxes of 25 low-brass birdshot loads, testing patterns and busting clays. But I only shot maybe 2 rounds of slugs and 2 rounds of buckshot, just to...

    Taurus GX4 Torture Test | Ran It Over | Does it Still Fire? GunBrand Video

    VERY ENTERTAINING VIDEO. I love hands-on tests of all kinds, including torture tests. By the way, the audio kept fading out in this video. So I may have missed some of the commentary. RESULTS .... drag behind vehicle = magazine floorplate breaks off, leaving hollow mag body in gun...

    CMR-30 from Kel-Tec

    I got to shoot both the PMR 30 pistol and the CMR 30 carbine yesterday. The carbine I used was reliable. Accuracy seemed good given the crude flip-up iron sights (it did not have optics on it at the time I tested it). It was very light and I think it would make a great home defense weapon...

    Stevens 320 pump ( China )

    Shorter. Must've been trimmed, broken off, or chewed off at some point.

    AR15/16A1 Clone

    P.S. A couple years after I posed this, I did acquire a home-assembled AR that is configured as an M16A1, except it's got a shell deflector, forward assist, fence around the mag button, etc. But it's got a skinny 20" barrel, triangular handguards, a 3-prong flash hider, and a fixed carry...
