Frequently Asked Questions

What are the new ATF proposals affecting gun shops?

The ATF is considering new definitions that could require gun shops to provide safes or other locking devices. While presented as a safety measure, some view this as a symbolic mandate that may not significantly impact gun safety practices, as many shops already offer such items.

What is the .30 Super Carry cartridge and how does it compare to 9mm?

.30 Super Carry is a new cartridge designed to be thinner than 9mm, offering potentially higher capacity in similar firearms. It claims lower recoil than .380 ACP and achieves better penetration than 9mm, though with smaller expansion. Its long-term viability is uncertain.

What are the main criticisms of the new Smith & Wesson CSX and Savage Stance pistols?

The Smith & Wesson CSX is questioned for its manual of arms and manual safety, potentially confusing for new shooters. The Savage Stance is criticized for its overly aggressive and "ugly" aesthetic, with excessive cuts and texturing that don't seem to serve a practical purpose.

How can recoil be managed for a handgun shooter who finds .380 too much and 9mm too heavy?

For reduced recoil, consider a larger .380 with more mass, like a Beretta Cheetah, or a .357 Magnum revolver loaded with .38 Special ammunition. This offers less felt recoil than a .38 Special revolver loaded with the same rounds.
