    Guns and shooting advice?

    yep, accuracy takes a lot of practice...it seems accuracy with the sig takes much much more...i realized this while shooting my fathers p228...but i'm sold with the comfortable grip...i swear it was made for my hand, but thats just me...i'm more than willing to do the extra practice to become...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    you're very right...i think it's what i call "top heavy"...there is a lot more firearm above the hand and it throws the balance way off once you get down to a couple rounds...the 6906 has more balance (i guess that it the right way to say put it...) however the sig has a very very comfortable...

    Guns and shooting advice?

    S&W 6906 compact 9mm is a nice firearm...smaller with good capacity...i have one...i have small hands and it fits good...a sig p228 or 229 in 9mm may be a good choice too...i think the S&W runs around $400 used and a little more, like $500 for a used sig...

    Are film noire motion pictures in color an oxymoron?

    this might be going out on a limb, but 'Batman' with keaton i think is very noir...even though it is set in the late 80s and is a story of a masked crusader, the entire mood of the film is very classic, imo...very dark, very golden era fashion (the reporter even had those arm band things for the...

    Show us your Guns!

    i'm going to take a guess here that Hollywood may have contributed to that with Die Hard and Lethal Weapon...maybe not all the credit but it can't be denied that Hollywood has an influence on trends...whether it be fashion, firearms, or whatever...
