I bought a new Kimber Micro 9 with CT laser grips. The trigger was so bad that the gun would shake in my hands trying to fire it. 9 lbs. I took it apart. The sear was crooked (bent) and only 1/2 made contact with the hammer. I futzed with it and got it to shoot. Later I found more problems and...

I bought a Valor and PM-9. Oiled the heck out of them and shot them a lot. The PM-9 is getting less than 2" for 5 shots @ 50 yards. Both run great. First few hundred rounds both had a couple of fail to battery. Its all good now, thousands of runds later. Both are now a year old. We shoot 3...

Boatdoc, I was glad she knew I kept a gun in the night stand after I evicted her. It was a bumpy ride. The attorney I called about evicting her did it for free because she expected to get more work from me. I did get robbed, but just let it go. David

Been shooting Bullseye for 30 years. My daughter now shoots Bullseye too. Last summer we were shooting steel bowling pins @ 30 feet. One of the fellas has a bad hand so he was shooting one hand. My daughter said I will shoot one hand too. She whooped his butt with a 1911 9mm. I shoot...

HAD.., New wife shoots with me. David

9 mm Nato is 124 grain at a real 1200 fps. I have chronied them. I have two 9mm 1911 now, None of the loads seem hot compared to a 45. David

I have a 32 made in 1928. It was my dads. Thinking of getting it re blued. David
