    NM Single Six Houge Grip Problems

    My friend just bought a new Ruger Single Six 22 convertible. We attempted to put the Hogue Slip on grips, only to find that we can't figure out where to put the pin. His SS is a new one with the stupid internal lock, and I have read that the lock mechanism does not play well with the Hogue...

    Defensive Storage

    Rem 870 tactical loaded by the bed whenever I am asleep. P95 is loaded and ready to go as my standby whenever I am up and around the house. At least one of my carry guns are also usually loaded, but those are not "at the ready" around the house. Home alarm is always set when I am settled for...

    SR9 and SR40 Stainless Steel guiderods pic

    I assume the guide rod is for the full size only, or are they available for the "C" also?

    Got a new IWB Holster for SR9c

    This is my new IWB holster from NM Holsters. http://www.nm-holsters.com/home It fits the SR9c perfectly and is very comfortable to wear. I also purchased the IWB mag carrier. He is actually in my area so I was able to meet up with him and chat for a few. Very nice guy who I will definitely do...

    Holster for a Ruger SR9c

    I cut the thread on mine with an exacto knife, trimmed the top rim like SOnnytoo did. One the clip was where I wanted it I used a few tiny dabs of superglue to keep everything in place while I used the Dremel and a tiny bit to drill new holes. Then I used a heavy nylon thread to put everything...

    Ruger Black Hawk 41 mag

    Wow, just read those articles. He was pushing the absolute "published" limit of the 41 loads. I load 210 gr JHPs on 19.2 grains of 2400 and it has some serious punch. I just don't get a warm fuzzy pushing it all the way to the book max.

    Ruger Black Hawk 41 mag

    Enjoy it. I have a 1978 New Model 41mag that I bought used around 2002. I purchased it specifically because it's just like my Dads that he uses for White Tail in New York.

    SP101 called a PIG??

    The 110gr probably has a pretty light recoil. I personally prefer the Federal Hydra-shock 130 grain 357 Mag.

    The Diminutive SP 101

    If the CTC overmold grips are similar to the Hogue overmolds I am using, I'm sure they are fantastic. The Hogues are far better at absorbing recoil than the factory grips, and the finger grooves keep the pistol from trying to rotate in your hand.

    SP101 called a PIG??

    My friends refer to mine as the Noisy Cricket (yes, obvious Men In Black reference).

    The Diminutive SP 101

    I love mine. It's been my carry weapon for 7 years, and I have put ~ 2,000 rounds through it. Here is a video of the recoil (I am 5'11, 250lbs). I am using my own loads: 158gr jacketed bullets with 14.0gr of 2400. They have considerably more kick than the 125gr Hyrda-shocks that I actually...

    SR9 Thumbs up or down?

    I have had mine for a few weeks. Put about 300 rounds through it so far and love it. The pistol is very accurate, and the trigger is as good as any other striker pistol I have shot (several Glocks, Steyr M40, Walther P99).

    I'm pleased with the SR40(Updated first post)

    Sorry to hear about the quality problems. Maybe they screwed up and sent you one of the pre-production test guns. :shock: I have the SR9c and after 300 rounds and absolutely happy with it (and I am VERY picky about my firearms). I would have to say that in the realm of DAO/striker fire...

    Holster for a Ruger SR9c

    I ended up purchasing a Don Hume 715 for the S&W M&P compact. as noted previously, it is a perfect fit. I agree that a forward tilt would be nice, so I have already cut the clip mount off and am making the necessary modifications. I think it will be perfect.
