That's a hard deal to pass up for a handgun with such good reviews. Let alone a Smith & Wesson. |

Replenished my 45 ACP stock. Got 500 rounds of CCI Blazer Brass from Palmetto for $193, including taxes and shipping. Pretty good deal, especially considering the alternative of buying it locally. And while they may be a bit slow shipping guns (Hi Dunit! ) I ordered the ammo on the 27th and got it today. Would have had it yesterday but the UPS guy showed up before anybody was home so nobody could sign for it. |

Picked up a Tikka T3x Superlite 300 win mag in green with a Leupold VX-3i scope. I know it's a little big for the job but it destroyed a very large (for the area) antelope last weekend. Gotta get it scored yet.

One thing to be aware of: the slide stop is exactly that. It ISN'T A SLIDE RELEASE. Meaning, that it's not designed to be pushed down to release the slide after lock back. S&W designed the gun so that you have to slingshot the slide to get the gun back into battery. Recoil spring system is designed to mitigate recoil so muzzle flip is reduced. |

Same. I just mentioned it because so many people try to use it as a release, and then complain when it doesn't work that way.

Don’t know if anyone has seen this, but I thought it was funny. I own a few Henry rifles and I love them, great shooting guns. |

I kind of fall into a weird group, I buy a few different self defense types and shoot them through each gun I intend to carry. Then I will use whatever will feed the best with that pistol. A couple of my pistols don’t like the Critical Defense, I think it’s due to the rubber on the tip of the bullet. I will try to find an article I read a while ago about self defense rounds, and post it up. |

SGAmmo usually has pretty good prices.
Ditto on Hornady Critical Defense. Good stuff. |
