Kahr to Introduce CM40 in Spring of 2012
From Gun Up:
The CM4043 is chambered in a .40 S&W caliber, has a 3.0″ barrel and an overall length of 5.47″, with a height of 4.0″. The pistol weighs in at 15.8 ounces plus 1.9 ounces for the stainless steel magazine. Differences between the CM models and PM models include: the CM4043 has a conventional rifled barrel instead of the match grade polygonal barrel on Kahr’s PM series; the CM slide stop lever is MIM (metal-injection-molded) instead of machined; the CM series slide has fewer machining operations and uses simple engraved markings instead of roll marking; and finally, the CM series are shipped with one magazine instead of two magazines.
P238 Mandatory Safety Upgrade
From: SIG SAUER July 2009
SIG SAUER, Inc. has initiated a Mandatory Safety Upgrade pertaining to our new Model P238™ pistols. We have determined that a small number of P238 pistols may have safety levers that are not manufactured to factory specifications. Under certain conditions, it may be possible for the lever not to be completely engaged in the safe position. In this condition, the gun will not fire when the trigger is pulled. However, when the safety lever is moved to the off position, the hammer may fall, with the remote possibility that the gun could fire unintentionally, thus creating a risk of injury or death. Please note: does not affect ANY of the 27Axxxxxx serialized pistols. More…
James Yeager: 1911s are like Strippers and Glocks are like Fat Girls
Posted by Jack Sinclair in Colt, Glock, Handguns, Opinion on 14/Dec/2011 19:58
We’re sure he’ll stir up some “discussion” with these two points:
1. 1911s are like Strippers and Glocks are like Fat Girls
2. Why he chooses 9mm over 45
Glock vs. M&P vs. XD – Which is the best?
Posted by Jack Sinclair in Glock, Handguns, Opinion, Smith & Wesson, XD on 16/Nov/2011 02:26
Opinions about the Glock vs MP vs XD
“It has been a while since we explored the differences between these three popular carry (CCW) pistols. This is a long look at lots of details and why I perfer the Smith & Wesson M&P over the Glock and why I don’t like the Springfield XD, but why I understand why some people do.”
Ruger LCP .380 Review
From My Gun Culture:
The Ruger LCP is a well made pistol and we found that makes a noticeable difference on the range. Yes, it’s technically one of those guns to carry a lot and shoot far less frequently, but we were pleasantly surprised by its ergonomic friendliness over long shooting sessions. No, we would not want to crank off a few hundred rounds of high-pressure self defense ammo at a single sitting, but shooting lower recoil practice loads exhibited a low level of self abuse.
Glock 17 Review
This review is from My Gun Culture:
First Impressions
- Our G17 test gun came with three (17) round magazines. And a Glock magazine loader tool. We appreciate that as three magazines represents the minimum configuration for a self-defense gun. As a side note, we also really appreciate the street price of additional magazines for Glocks. $20-25 if you shop a bit. Compared to $40-50 magazines from other manufacturers who-will-not-be-named, that’s pretty darn reasonable.
- Shooting it sideways did not make us look any more fearsome on the range. Nor did any Hollywood producers call offering us bad guy roles in new action films. We did get puzzled looks from other shooters at the range however – and one tried to sell us some crack.
- The new G17 is a really comfortable gun to hold, and more importantly, shoot. It feels solid in the hand and has no tendency to slide around. No skateboard tape or rubber grip sleeves required, even if you’re a nervous sweaty-hand type.
