Taurus Handgun Reviews
I can't say enough good about these guns. Though they are still maligned by dispensers of misinformation by those who know nothing about them, of the 13 pistols I have bought, owned and sold over the last year, these handguns have been some of the best.
Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum:
When you feel the need for power, the big Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum revolver will soothe the shooter's soul. This big stainless steel magnum will handle a steady life-long diet of the hottest .44 magnum loads.
Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum:
This little five shot stainless steel magnum, like all Rugers will take a steady and long diet of full magnum loads without a hiccup. Strong, dependable, concealable, durable, fun to shoot, and capable of shooting full load magnums. What more could you ask for in a personal protection handgun?

Bersa Thunder 380:
Small, easy to grip, accurate, fun to shoot and durable. All for under $250.00 new. One of the best buys in the gun world as well as one of the best choices for concealed carry. Check out the Bersa
Springfield XD handgun reviews:
While gun mag reviewers seem to drool and fawn over the Springfield XD, the two I have owned fall far short of what the intent of the gun is. Trying to be a good copy of a GLOCK is a tall order that the Springfield XD hasn't filled so far.
Beretta Cougar 8000 9mm:
This dependable, concealable, 9mm with a unique locking barrel design is a worthy consideration for a primary or secondary concealed handgun.
Beretta Neos .22 Semi Auto Pistol:
Whether it's for plinking, hunting or competition, this unique space-gun looking invention from Beretta will accommodate it. And it does it at a price that makes it one of the best value .22 pistols on the market.
Bersa Thunder 40:
Bersa has really come on in recent years with high quality handguns from .22 to .45, all with the purpose of producing personal and self defense weapons. The Bersa Thunder 40 is one of this fine line of quality, high-value pistols.
Walther P22:
This little .22 semi auto pistol appeared to be a little pricey at first. I bought it because of the small grip for my daughter and wife to shoot. It has turned out to be a gun that I would highly recommend as a great value, a great shooter and one of the most dependable .22 pistols I have ever used or owned.
Smith and Wesson 638 Airweight Revolver:
This little light, pocketable revolver just may be the answer for being able to go armed 100% of the time. And as a bonus, it's dependable, accurate, and fun to shoot.

The Ruger Alaskan .44 magnum revolver:
This is a revolver that is all beef and no filler. Nearly 4 pounds loaded, this hand full of wheel gun is one that you can shoot all you want, with the hottest loads available. It'll do nothing but beg for more. Carry it on your holster in the woods or in your car in the urban jungle. Either way, it'll hold off the worst of gremlins.
The Sig Sauer P220
is a good gun. Good, not great. And not better than the multitude of other popular tactical handguns on the market today. The Sig Sauer performs well, but falls well short of it's mythical status and it's over inflated price tag.
The Smith and Wesson Model 29 Anniversary Edition
satisfied a desire of mine that started over 30 years ago when I first heard Dirty Harry say "make my day". After years of building up the nearly mythical reputation of this revolver in my mind, it finally became a reality in my hand. Did it meet the great expectations I had built up? You better believe it.
The Taurus Millinnium Pro
met a need that I had to add to my daily carry firearms. Considering what I know about Taurus firearms in general, and noting the $319.95 price tag on what was considered to be a good dependable gun in it's 3rd generation form, I opted for the small .40 cal pistol over it's higher priced competitors. I haven't been sorry for the choice.
The Taurus 627, .357 Magnum was my choice
over a Smith and Wesson 686 at Sportsman's Warehouse. I found the gun to be better in fit and finish, with full underlug, and ported 6" barrel, for about $200 less than the Smith. The Taurus went home with me.
The Kimber Pro Carry II 1911 .45 ACP,
with matte stainless finish is a gun that I don't own, but have been able to observe in action for about 3 and a half years. The gun belongs to my good friend Matt, and It's been present in dozens of places where I've been with a group of people to shoot for over three years. I've also shot it numerous times with both reloads and factory ammo. Matt hasn't kept up with the rounds put through it closely, but is positive the round count is well into the thousands. I have personally seen hundreds of rounds put through it as well as my own shooting experience with it.
The Smith and Wesson Military and Police
is a pistol that S&W burst into the gun scene a few years ago. Smith and Wesson has had it's ups and downs over the years, but the company is one that's getting it right now. And the M&P .40 S&W is one of those right things as is the whole line of guns growing more popular by the day. Predictably Smith and Wesson has developed a whole assortment of sizes and calibers of the gun that rivals any polymer pistol on the market.
The GLOCK 23
is a slightly downsized version of the G22. With a 12 round magazine capacity and 4 inch barrel, the gun is more easily concealable than the 22, but still packs plenty of firepower. And considering its inherent dependability and accuracy, it has become the replacement for my G22 as a carry gun.
The Smith and Wesson 500 Magnum Revolver
is a major fist full of power. A true hand canon, yet the S&W 500 magnum with 8 3/8" barrel is made to tame the big cartridge it fires. A pricey gun to purchase and shoot, it still gives the shooter an experience worth the price.
Kimber SIS Ultra Carry 1911:
In spite of some considerable controversy and criticism of the company, Kimber turned out an excellent concealed carry 1911 in the SIS Ultra Carry 1911.
