I honestly thought mine was about 1/4 to 1/3 of what I see in your photo, roughly, with a round in the chamber. But when I took a photo, it looks pretty darn flush. Is that photo with an empty...

I'll definitely be keeping my eye open for the stainless gun in .44 Mag. While I have enjoyed shooting the 50AE model, there's no way in the world I could afford to shoot 50AE even if I handloaded...

I got mine at GunsAmerica.com for, I think, about $425. It was a factory refurb in very good condition with some very minor corrosion under the grips. Polished all that out with little effort, put...

I think you'll find that shooting a DA gun such as the K40 will take a while to really get used to, but you will learn it and your accuracy will tighten right up. I was very surprised to find I can...

I'm getting very interested in getting a 44 mag but had a few questions. First off I'll summarize my motivations.

I shot a friend's 50AE and simply found it to be a lot of fun to shoot. It feels...

I don't have both, only the K40. I can only hope the extra weight of the steel frame is noticeable--that's why I bought it. It's a tiny little gun, IMO, and I prefer having the extra mass. I don't...

Just as an update, I finally pulled the loads I had marked as 11.4gr and 11.2gr Longshot under the 135 gr XTPs. The concern was that these were potentially 0.6gr heavier than I'd marked them due to...

Congratulations--looks like you got the Trijicons, too, which I love. Yes, there's no need to bypass 40SW--it's a pretty good cartridge IMO, and in the K40, it's an excellent match for the handful of...

Amazingly-concise summary of what makes it a winner for me, too, and all I can do is feel even better about having spent several hundred bucks less than buying new. I want to get a 'good deal' as...

Congratulations!! You're probably spot-on regarding its history, and in fact a couple of boxes could very well be an overstatement. MY OPINION is that, unless you've already spent considerable time...

My club is offering one for $550 right now, and when I bought mine a little over a year ago I paid $495. I personally am not much of a cosmetics kinda guy and am not bothered by little blemishes. I...

I wonder how many bullets the clips will hold when Joe's done with his hard work. I know I sure am going to miss having lots of bullets. Now I'll have to carry more clips. But in New York I won't be...

I haven't shot any factory Remington in my K40, but I've thrown a hundred or so rounds of Golden Sabres downrange in handloads with no malfunctions, misfeeds or other issues. I believe these are...

As an interest item, in manufacturing some springs they are pre-compressed in an effort to put in most of the permanent deformation they will experience in their expected lifetimes. This is the case...

Let's don't be silly. It may be traceable to Changping, but not NIST. ;)

I'm totally okay with several milligrams plus or minus--a half grain isn't so good.

Well, I'm definitely getting a backup scale for an occassional double-check. Who'd have thought you'd need to ever calibrate a $65 digital POS scale that's been running in 80F and 15F environments...

It is AMAZING that, just last night I thought the same thing--regarding my digital scale. Specifically with another load I did for 10mm that was well under any maximum, yet it just felt like a...

Indeed, and although I've never said this before, also the finest all-steel DAO sub-compact single-stack 40 caliber handgun ever designed and manufactured in Wor'sta.

Thank goodness that's over with...at least for now. She's back in the saddle again..

...and I was lucky enough to...

Oh holy crap. Ya think they'd produce TWO extra ones while they were tooled up? I will no longer whine like a baby when I break a little replaceable part.

Having had guns most of my life that were...

...and I'd have a hard time arguing with you, given I'm the guy with the blown up gun. :)

You're right--the outcome of these variables not under control could look like this possibility:

Yes, I DID get some good news today. After waiting 2 weeks for a Glock 29 to ship, I got an email saying it was backordered. :) Oh well, life could be worse.

The back plate blew while at the range...

It's called 'Kahr a la carte'.

Maybe I'll just JB Weld it...I bet it would last for years. :)

Man, the Gun Gods are really not looking out for me when it comes to my beloved and treasured K40. I just get it back from replacing the cracked slide, then just get it back from porting, then just...
