Reader Comments of the Week
“I was hoping Ruger would make the Wrangler with a birdshead grip, and was fortunate enough to hear about it in time to find one of the rare TALO models with the wood grips and holster. I already own 3 older Wranglers, all with the black finish & custom grips. I’d probably buy one in the silver, if only the cylinders weren’t all in black. I’m guessing they only make one color cylinder to keep costs down. The Birdshead is a super fun little gun to practice your draw, unloaded or with snap caps of course.”
– MIKE, in response to Review: Ruger Wrangler Birdshead Grip .22 LR Revolver
“I was fortunate enough to pick up a 25th Anniversary M9, which is a Beretta 92. It is one of our favorite guns for range shooting. It’s a big gun for a daily carry pistol, but with the right belt and holster can be carried safely and will give you confidence. If you’re a fan of the model you might look at the Girsan Regard, which is a Turkish made clone and which is very well made and accented.”
– DAVID, in response to Beretta 92: Maintenance Checklist and Spare Parts List
“I bought a CZ 75B several years ago and loved it. My only complaint was factory sights. They are small and on my copy weren’t regulated. I eventually had a gunsmith install adjustable sights. I then saw the same model in the compact model at my local dealer and traded the original CZ for the compact model and it was my carry gun for several years. Being an old fan of the 1911, I love the ability to carry this pistol cocked and locked.”
