Astra 400... not polymer, and will shoot just about any 9mm size cartridge incuding .380 (athough the .380 has to be loaded individually)... would not use higher pressure 9mm para, though.

I'm not even sure if they have been released, but has anybody seen the new GSG-9s? My brother is interested in getting one? For those of you not familiar with them. The GSG-9 is a 1911-style .22LR pistol that has a 3 7/16 length barrel with a Tac rail.

You will have to get a new permit if it is a new serial number.

Does it have to be a certified copy?

The Taurus service revolvers made at the end of the revolver reign, late 80s early 90s, such as the Model 66 were very good quality, as Taurus was going for the law enforcement market when Glock happened. I'd probably avoid earlier stuff, though. With a serial number in hand, you can find out the year of production at Taurus's site. I'd say the newer things are about as good a quality as any. My new Ruger had to be recently returned as well, and I consider Ruger a good revolver. Ruger took care of it quickly, though, and Taurus might not. Still, a lifetime warranty is a nice thing to have with the Taurus. Anyway, this post is in the Marketplace and not the handgun area. There was a stainless Taurus 66 on Gunbroker (in Vineland) that might be nice but it had a 6" barrel.

Look for a used Ruger GP100, SP101, Speed Six, Security Six, Service Six, Taurus 66, or S&W 686... I would suggest a 3 to 4" barrel. For versatility and quality I will second the Smith 60 w/ a 3" barrel, but you will pay for it. http://www.thetrutha...agnum-take-two/

Did an intense cleaning on it and all appears to be normal. That's exactly what happened.

I installed a Volquqrtsen Exact Edge Extractor in my Mark III and everything appears to be functioning and its back together. But, when I dry fire at the end of the take-up, there is now a pronounced click and a little roughness when it stops traveling right before it breaks. Does anybody have any thoughts as to what is going on? The plunger came out and I put it back in when installing the extractor. I am not sure if I put it exactly back the way it was. Also, the firing pin spring came off that little metal guide and I put back on, but have no idea if the spring was suppose to go a cerain way onto that delicate guide. Thanks!

It seems like a policy at a lot of places. I just tell them that I left it in my car. Or, I just bring an old one that was never used with me. They don't look closely at it and know what it is if you have it in hand. But, if they are even the slightest bit rude, etc. that is another reason for purchasing guns online.

I've never seen a Glock sticker on a vehicle, but I personally cannot stand any political stickers, especially Obama stickers.

The PT92 is arguably, but probably the best firearm that Taurus makes. Although the Model 66 revolver is pretty nice, too. I would get whichever I could pickup used in mint condition at a good price.

840 It is $7.00 admission and I think the doors open at 9:00.

I am planning on going up on Saturday morning.

Well, I have a friend that named his Doberman "Ruger". "Oh, Ruger, come here, boy!" That's a little advertising, too.

Either will do just fine. The Taurus can be had in stainless and it allows for "cocked and locked" carry. It also seems to be slightly larger in the grip department to me. Since the Beretta 92 is just a tad too big for my hand, I would rather have the Beretta over the larger PT92. If you have at least medium or medium to largish hands, it shouldn't matter to you. I don't care about "cocked and locked" feature of the Taurus, but it would at least be an option. For me, the main consideration for the Taurus over the 92 is the stainless frame. I also like a frame safety on the Taurus, but if I remember it functions in exactly the opposite direction of the Beretta. If you were looking at a blued Taurus PT92, I would strongly recommend going with the Beretta. But, Taurus has a lifetime warranty, which, although Taurus CS is not the best, would be a nice thing to have, especially if you buy a used gun. If you choose the Beretta, which would have more accessories (I don't know if all of the plethora of aftermarket grips and holsters for the Beretta will work with the Taurus), I would look at one with a removable front sight or consider the 92A1/M9A1 with this feature. The "A1" varieties have a place to install a light/etc., if that matters to you. My inclination would be to spend the extra dollars and get the Beretta (which will also have better resale value, etc.), unless I was getting the stainless steel Taurus and the size was OK with me. There are some slim grips you can get for the Beretta to make it slightly smaller, but I am not sure about the Taurus. If you can find a good deal on either a used Beretta 92 or a Taurus PT92 in good condition, I would say that either would be suitable, and the Taurus warranty should transfer to you as well. Lastly, I would check about the availability of 15-round magazines and the cost.

Looking for a Ruger LCR in .357 or .22LR. Other items of interest: Ruger SR9C FNH FNP-9M

There is a Taurus revolver in the Marketplace that i probably a good value. My recommendations would be: 1. Ruger Mark II (any flavor) but I prefer a stainless one with a 5 1/2 bull barrel. Learn how to break it down on Youtube. 2. Taurus 992 Hunter (.22LR, .22WMR) and double action 3. Ruger Single Six combo (.22LR, .22WMR) 4. Buckmark, nice but too ammo sensitive 5. Ruger SR22, lousy trigger My favorite .22LR pistols are Colt Huntsman/Woodsman and CZ Kadet, but they would be a bit more... Other thoughts New SR22 This is nice, but I think the trigger is lousy Ruger 22/45 I prefer the all-steel Mark II/III

The one Henry I had a chance to checkout was sheet metal and not my cup of TEA. I would go with a Marlin 39A in good shape any day over the other. If you don't have a semi-auto, I would suggest you get one of those first, unless you can pickup a Ruger 77/22 for a good price.

Are you sure that's not a beaver?

You need to trap it and then remove it from the area.

I know what I saw, and I don't believe it is an isolated case. Or that they are causal visitors from states far away. There is plenty of food and enough cover for them. Even in my own experiences, the government had no inclination to follow-up with me or to find out more. Why? Either they know they are here, or they completely don't believe me, or possibly, they don't have the resources committed. Out of all of these, I would rather believe that they are aware but choosing to ignore them. If you choose not to recognize that cougars are here, then that is your choice. If you put your faith in the government's position, then that is your choice, too. Again, the government seems to be covering up the fact that there have been so many sightings, etc. and the government does not appear to be actively seeking evidence of the cougars' existence. If the government acknowledged that they were here, and/or that they possibly released them here, then there would be mass hysteria. And, given that the chance of a deadly encounter with one is rather rare, it would do more harm than good to acknowledge them. There is an increasingly large deer population which causes numerous more car accidents and deaths than a few beneficial cats that add to the ecosystem and might avert some of those car fatalities and the possibility for overgrazing. However, because of my personal experiences I have a heightened sense of respect and a little fear for them.

SP101 is a fine revolver. Ruger just seemed to half-bake this one.
