MY backup choice on duty: American Derringer with '45-70(Spanish American Trapdoor Springfield military round) round -top; and .410 shotgun- lower barrel. Unfortunately considered illegal in CA as under 18" barrel 'sawed-off shotgun' I still shoot an original 1876 Trapdoor Springfield too. Still the loudest thing at the range!!!

I have about a dozen weapons I need to take to the range and sight in (ranging from matchlocks, flinters, percussion, a PSA PA-10, and a 2" bore swivel cannon. Local range is indoors, limited to 25 yds (no black powder weapons, and nothing over .308). Need to move back to South Dakota and Montana.
Yours, &c. Mike |

Now you too can have your very own hand held 3000 round per minute rail gun. Great for home defense!

Before you laugh, think of any equivalent to frog poison.

Good choice, IMHO.
I've been eyeing the 96 for a while. Reason being it's the same caliber as my EDC S&W Shield. One of these days I'll ... pull the trigger.

I'm really thinking about getting one of Springfield's "new" Browning Hi Powers, but kinda expensive

I can't take this out for a test run until Sunday, but I have a feeling I'll need to replace the grips with thinner ones, and do some spring work to lower the DA trigger weight (it comes in at 9lb 14oz)

Well I am changing it up. Swapping my Beretta J9A9F10 92A1 17+1 9mm 4.9" for a Glock G19 Gen5 Compact 15 Rounds 9mm.
