    How many rounds have you fired through your LCP...

    I'm at about 500 now and she is a champ! Put 50 through her last week after months of not shooting her. Still holding 5" at about 25'. Good enough for me!

    GunBroker.com question

    I bought some mags on there last week (first purchase). Sent my USPS money order off to the guy, now just waiting for reciprocation ... Ha!

    Cold blued my LCP slide

    I promise I have nothing but great things to say about Frog Lube. I use the paste and, surprise, I don't follow directions. It has been a great product. I only use the paste. I clean and apply as directed the first application but after that I use the paste as a wipe on wipe off application...

    My AR

    Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited for my first venture into this long gun venture. Until now I've been a handgun guy only... It was a great deal. I'm sure you guys are aware of Colorado's new 15r mag limit effective 7/1. So far my funds have been dedicated to mags. I did the Magpul Boulder...

    My AR

    Thanks Doug! Yeah I got her a couple 6 or 8 weeks ago. My dad just got his first about four months ago and I've been jealous ever since! We've been talking back and forth about all the craziness with magazine caps, and all the other laws that could be coming down from the feds… I was here at...

    My AR

    Figured I'd share a pic of the AR I picked up. It's an M&P Sport. Chambered for 5.56 and mil-spec. Where the Sport comes in (apparently) is that there is no forward assist and no dust cover. Being my first and not having a lot of cash it suits me just fine as my first. $749, a deal I...

    Cold blued my LCP slide

    To be honest I kinda liked the worn look. So long as it wasn't rusting on you... But it looks like a new pistol now. I carry mine daily, 10+ hours in one of Doug's IWBs and mine doesn't even have shiny corners yet... Must be the salt in your air?

    Older LCP - recoil spring

    The only experience I have is my Ruger LCP but so far it has been perfect. I have not worn out springs but I haven't hit 1,000 rounds yet either. Springs wear out from use, and all semi-auto firearms need maintenance eventually. In the case of the LCP, stock replacement springs are about six...

    Older LCP - recoil spring

    IF he can... I doubt it. Probably wouldn't notice I even cleaned her more or less replaced parts... It's ok though, just doing it because I can. Plus I have always wanted Wolff springs and the BT guide rod for mine. Haha Plus like I eluded, she may become mine if chips don't fall his way...

    How much has the ammo hoarding and scalping decreased your shooting?

    I haven't been in a couple months now. Makes me sad... I have a decent stock but I don't want to shoot because replenishing is painful so I too am waiting it out. The only thing I don't have is any .223 or 5.56 but that's because it's a brand new platform for me. I've only owned handguns but...

    How many rounds have you fired through your LCP...

    I'm sitting on even less I think. I think I only have about 50 JHP AND 200 ball in .380. Hind sight I wish I would have got while the gettin was good. I think we are all in that boat to some extent though...

    Older LCP - recoil spring

    I ordered the 11lb spring kit from Wolff and I got a Stainless BT guide rod on order as well. Mine will get the upgrades and ill put my old springs and GR into this babysitter. Someone I know ran into some legal issues and so I'm just holding it for now but, I have love for my Elsie so I...

    How many rounds have you fired through your LCP...

    I would have gone if I could find an ounce of ammo for a reasonable cost:

    Older LCP - recoil spring

    I thought so! It only has the bigger spring. Man the thing was rode hard and put away wet too.... No big deal I've been looking for and excuse to upgrade my springs and guide rod. Guess I found it! :D pic just for fun. Mine on the right, babysitting on the left (could be me mine though...

    Older LCP - recoil spring

    Hey guys, quick question… I have an older LCP in my care right now. It is a 374 –xxxxx. It was as dirty as a swamp. I took it apart to clean it and I found that it only had one recoil spring… Mine has two, one goes inside of the outside, and the two slide over the guide ride. Is this older LCP...

    Interesting 9s

    I love my XD's so I have to throw them in there like a couple of posts above. I'll deviate by saying my XD9sc though. Shoots and feels just like my Service, but smaller... :D

    Panic buy?

    My panic buy was a XD9sc (3"). With good cause apparently. Got her a couple days after Christmas. She came with a 13r mag and a 16r with the grip xtension. I then bought one more 13r and another 16r. I already had a XD9 service with two 16r's... but don't carry it much because of its size (but...
