Browning Buck Mark & Tactical Solutions Barrel

The Browning Buck Mark with a Tactical Solutions barrel, is pure joy to shoot, this gun is so incredibly light at the muzzle end its amazing. All the weight of the gun is located in the grip area of the pistol, and that provides the Tactical Solutions Browning Buck Mark with a grip balance that is unrivaled. If you are a small bore enthusiast you have to try shooting a gun with a Tactical Solutions barrel on it.

Marvel Precision M1911-.22 Conversion Kit for 1911 .45

The Marvel Precision m1911-22 is a very well known conversion kit, transforming your 1911 style pistol into A reliable weapon system that shoots cheap ammunition. The main reason people use these conversion kits is to practice with their 1911 pistols effectively and cheaply. This conversion is the best way to train your snapshot with the 1911 for the lowest cost. I made this video mainly to demonstrate how much better the GSG 1911-22 magazines are than the standard issue Marvel magazines. Watch the video and if you own a Marvel kit, be prepared to invest in some GSG 1911-.22 magazines.



I am selling the marvel kit in this video on Gunbroker.com here's the link to the auction, enjoy! Marvel Precision M1911-.22 Conversion Kit

Kel-Tec PF-9 Reveiw

The Kel-Tec PF-9 is my current backup gun. Firstly I wont go any smaller than 9mm for my backup gun, so a .380 .32 .25 or .22 caliber pistol was out of the question. I normally carry a S&W M&P .40 or a S&W TRR8, but sometimes I find these guns to cumbersome to carry everyday, especially when doing something very active. So that's where my Kel-Tec PF-9 comes in really handy. What drew me to the PF-9 first was the specs, then I found some people that own them and swear by them. So for $260-$300 It's not like I was taking a big plunge. The more I shoot it, the more I like it, I can't say the same for some other compact/sub compact pistols I own/owned. For instance my Kahr CW40, I don't have a natural snapshot with that pistol, and I don't like the trigger, for me that makes a big difference.
 I made this short video with my little brother, he cant shoot a double action worth beans, he's used to a crisp 1911 trigger. But just the same It's a very functional gun and I have a great snap shot with it. Enjoy!

Smith & Wesson Model 41 Target Pistol

The Smith & Wesson Model 41 rimfire target grade pistol considered one of the ultimate target .22 caliber pistols. In fact I know several people that will shoot nothing other than the model 41 in competition. The model 41 is the #1 choice for competitive rimfire shooters. All the extra little features that are expected for competitive target shooting have been made standard by Smith & Wesson's Model 41. Such as adjustable weight, trigger, and sights.

This is without doubt, my personal #1 choice for a competition target pistol. The Model 41 can be found for sale on Gunbroker.com

Taurus PT 1911 .45 ACP

When Taurus came out with the PT 1911 style .45 ACP I have to admit I was just a bit skeptical, but when I held it all skeptic thought quickly vanished! I picked up the Taurus 1911 PT for the first time, slid the action back, looked down the sights and pulled the trigger (I obviously checked for loads) what happened was perfect chemistry, it was just a light squeeze I gave the trigger and the hammer fell. I realized that they had put a match grade trigger (or really close) on the PT 1911! I also noticed that the sights were great target grade sights. The beautiful look it has with that beavertail grip safety is awesome to. Just looking at it you would automatically think, "oh, nice Kimber, it prolly costs $900..." But no! The Taurus PT 1911 .45 ACP has a low MSRP of $617!!!

Now I have not had the chance to actually shoot this gun yet.

8 months later:
OK I've shot it now and I'm not so excited about the Pt 1911, so I'm coming back to add to this rather yuppie sounding post. Everything on the gun worked great, especially the thumb safety... in fact it activated itself after the first couple of shots. I thought "oh my hand must have jarred it from the recoil" but when I looked at it hadn't moved at all. But after clicking the thumb safety up and down again It started working again, but only to keep on seizing up on me over and over again. So I called in on Taurus' customer service, they have a lifetime warranty on all their guns. I sent the gun in 2 times and they failed to fix the problem, they obviously misunderstood somehow what the problem was. I ended up getting a cash refund from the local dealer I bought it from and was extremely lucky to do so. Perhaps it was just a quality control issue but at the same time I would not recommend this gun to anyone.

Ruger 22/45

The Ruger 22/45 is the most inexpensive way to improve your shot with a classic 1911 style gun. The Ruger 22/45 shoots cheap .22 ammo, but the grip has the same angle as a 1911 .45 So you can practice shooting cheap ammo and at the same time improve your shot with your 1911 .45 ACP, but for less.
As for the reliability of the Ruger 22/45 it is about mid-range, being a .22 and an autoloader. And you will want to stay away from hollow points if possible, they don't feed as reliably. It is mainly a practice gun, and .22 semi autos are not noted for their reliability. But here is one really cool thing about the Ruger 22/45, as long as you keep it reasonably clean, the more rounds you shoot through it, the less it will jam on you, the gun just functions more smoothly over time.
