I understand real estate transactions are public information. But for the most part buyer/seller names are not publicly listed on any websites. Zillow and other real estate sites list price/address information but does not disclose name of either party. We recently ran into a situation where someone was able to find out our addressed based on our names because all of above info were listed on certain website. We were being harassed and threatened by that individual. Even if it's public info, if it's at the town hall, someone can't just google my name and find out my address because that information is not on the web. My question is do I have the right to ask them to take down that info? I do not mind them posting the address and price but it becomes a potential danger when our names are associated with that info.

I did this once for 3 handguns. I'm doing it again for 5 to save on NICS. All you need to put on that form is "To further enhance my firearms collection". The NJSP did not give any issues approving it.

I did not say the parts has to be machined. There's more machining on the engagement surfaces. The parts themselves can be cast but the sear, hammer single action notch, double action notch, holes in the hammer, all has to be cleaned up. You'll need hammer strut, spring, trigger bar, safety lever for the plunger, etc. There are simply more parts and more engagement surfaces than a typical striker fired gun. Thus more expensive to make. You need to compare apples to apples. You are using Rugers from years ago. I am pretty sure if Ruger still makes the hammer fired guns today they will cost more to make than the SR9 series. There are modern hammer fired guns that has modular firing control units that are cheaper to make. But still has more parts than striker fired guns. Regarding second strike. I've experienced PLENTY of times rounds that did not go boom the first time that went off on the second strike. Esp with Russian surplus rounds with harder primers. Now whether this is better or worse than tap/rack/bang is another story.

Hammer fired guns are more expensive to make. There are more parts and the parts needs more machining. Not that they are necessarily better from a practical stand point. HKs do come with better made parts, the recoil spring assembly is a good example. One advantage of some of these hammer guns is second strike capability in the DA/SA or DAO configurtation. Only very few striker fired guns have that capability, Walther P99.

Chee should have been in the elimination. A USMC who couldn't complete the rope swing???? I'm surprised no one voted for him.

Gotcha. I thought you wanted to go for the - connector which I don't like.

Before you get the "-" connector. Try the trigger bar from a Gen3 G17/19. It will lighten the trigger pull to that of a Gen3 gun. http://www.topgunsupply.com/glock-trigger-w-trigger-bar-g17-22-31-34-35.html

Really? I always bring that in my camera bag when I fly and never were stopped. I guess I was just lucky.

For Sigs, I think the older models are worthy of the premium. Even with the newer guns, you do get an all metal gun. The Polymer Sigs esp the 2022 are priced very compeititvely so there's really no premium there. As for HK, you can really see the quality and engineering going into the gun. Just look at the recoil spring assembly, and they really go out of their way to test their stuff to make sure they can take the abuse. So yes there's a reason for me to pay the premium although I do think partially you are paying for the name.

After trying a lot of other polymer guns, the G19 is still my favorite. I want to get the G 20 Gen 4 when it comes out, 31/32 and maybe the sub-compacts.

Nice review. I wonder when they will come out with a G20 Gen4. That would be my next Glock.

It might have 2 triggers so you can actually reach the trigger due to the girth of the grip. If it's one trigger it has to sit in the middle of the frame unless the gun is lefty or righty only. Notice the hammers are connected so both rounds will go off at the same time. So I think you can pull on either trigger and it will fire both rounds.

Thanks. Does he have a retail shop?

When Rays Sports Shop was around they always had a big selection of used guns. How they are gone the shops around NNJ don't have that big of a selection. Does anyone know any shops here that stocks a good selection of used guns to pick from? What about in PA near rt78 or 80? Say Easton or the Poconos? TIA.

I'm talking about for people who do not wish or don't have the means to convert a Saiga in general. Just because someone have the know how does not mean they have the tools or time to do it. I work on my own guns to a certain extent. But to fully convert a Saiga I do not have the tools to do a prefessional looking job. I can't thread the muzzle myself or weld something if I need to. To do that I have to spend time and money to either drive or send the gun to someone who can. Sure I can cut the sheet metal here and there with a Dremel for a simple conversion, but the end result will not look like a prefessionally converted AK clone if I do it.

For some of us who do not have the time, tools and machinery and know how to convert a Saiga. The other options makes a lot more sense. I don't have a WASR but I know the ones from Henderson Defense work 100% and I love Arsenal made AK Variants.

You can't go wrong with a Wilson. I have a CQB Elite. I think those are the best bang for the buck. You get pretty much everything the top of the line guns have but for a lot less price(serrated top of slide, back of slide, nice night sights, checkered everything, fitted beavertail, magwell). The Elite comes with all Bulletproof parts too. If you special order one you can also personalize it a bit. I added carry cuts and flush crowning. Compared to other semi custom 1911s. Fit and finish is WAY better than Baer. Baers are not known for their finish but more for performance and being tight. Wilson by far has the best trigger out of box. I do like Ed Brown better because their finish is flawless but looks more 'hand finished' than Wilsons. One thing I don't like about Wilson is their checkering is too fine and does not give you as secure of a hold than Baer or Brown. I think 25lpi is perfect but Wilson is more like 30 or 35.

Here's the set from Cylinder and Slide: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/332667/cylinder-and-slide-low-mass-trigger-pull-set-beretta-92-steel-in-the-white

The Colt had a plastic trigger? I don't think they ever made a gun with a platic trigger. Yes, the 92FS trigger will feel nothing like a single action gun like 1911 or the Ruger MKIII. Most DA/SA pistols can't compare to a single action gun. The trigger itself is made out of plastic. Here's my suggestion on how to improve it: 1. Send it to a gunsmith who specializes in the 92fs/m9 and have a trigger job done. 2. If you want to do it yourself here's some simple and effective things you can do: a. Get a "D" spring. this is the main spring used for the DAO 92fs and is lighter and will give you a ligher double action and single action pull. b. replace the plastic trigger with a metal one. c. Get a aftermarket sear and hammer set. Cylinder and Slide makes a nice set with improved geometry. 3. The single action travel(over travel) can be reduced. If you are getting a trigger job done the smith usually knows how to reduce it. This can be easily done on most hammer fired semi. some material needs to be removed between the contact surface of the trigger bar and safety lever that pushes on the firing pin block plunger. Some smith welds a stop somewhere to limit the travel. A easier way you can do if you don't know how to do the above yourself is to get a trigger with an overtravel screw installed. Beretta Italy sells it and you need to order it directly from their site. I have one of those but have never installed it. HTH.

Moon clips are great for run and gun or timed competition. For people who just shoots at the range, Loading/unloading them are extra steps than shooting a revolver with rimmed cartridges. You have to deal with extras like moon clips, and tools for the metal clips, etc..

Pizza Bob, I did not know about the 547. Was it before or after the Speed Six 9mm? As for 45AR, yes there might be commercially availabe ammo still, but in my opinion most people who go for the 45ACP revolvers do that for the popularity of the 45ACP round and the speed in reloading them with moon clips. I would imaging 95% of the people use the 45acp out of these revolvers. These offerings you mentioned are not something you can pick up in most local shops and purchased in mass quantity with huge discount. If someone were to shoot 45AR out of a gun like 625, then why not go with a 44sp gun to begin with? The 44 has simular balliistics and will be more economical to shoot compared to 45AR and with better availabillity. For competition, I can see the merits of a 45ACP with full moon clips. Reloading is faster than the rimmed versions. At the range however, for me shooting rimmed cartridge is more convenient for me than shooting my 325 even with polymer moon clips.

S&W should do what Ruger and Charter Arms did and make something that shoot semi auto cartridge without use of moon clips. Reloading is much faster with full moon clips in tactical situations but for most of us who uses a big revolver like the 625/325 only at ranges the other option is more practical in my opinion.

How many people actually shoot 45 AR and for someone who does not reload it's not really a practical option.

That's a nice gun. I have the regular stainless 3" GP100 and the latest rugers come with really nice triggers from the factory. The rubber wood insert grips are very comfortable. I have S&W revolvers as well but for some reason I have this thing for Ruger revolvers In 357 they are much stronger than anything from Smith/Colt/Taurus.

With 45 you'll have to mess with moon clips. You can get the plastic ones where you do need a tool to insert and extract the shells from it. If you get it in 357 you can shoot anything from 38 wadcutters to full house 357. Yes, any 357 revolvers can shoot 38sp. Not the other way around. You didn't mention Ruger, if you are planning on shooting a lot of full house 357s, a GP100 is the better way to go in my opion. Smith might have slightly better finish and slightly better stock trigger.
