IMHO, the LCP is almost too small for a mans hand. The LC9 is manageable.

I like the size of the LC9/keltec pf9. The PM/CM9 is nice too. I've shot the CW9 which is about the overall size of a Glock 27 but has more grip length. I'm still debating CM9 or CW9. CM9 is pocketable but the CW9 is small on the hip

Interesting choice on the synthetic motor oil for the lubrication of the pistol. You didn't trust the Gunzilla?
If I asked you to toss me a clip, you'd know what I meant.

Depends on the man and his hands and his preferences, doesn't it? I think you mean your hands and preferences. Ruger hasn't sold eleventy billion of them to just women, now have they? No reason to be misogynistic about it.

I am going to take this old war horse out to a large Wisconsin gravel pit this weekend to see if it still shoots after 70 years.

Devil in the details. I agree for the most part. BUT...it fits nicely in my cargo shorts in the summer and is crazy lightweight.

Not a man cutter like a .45, but way better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick if the SHTF.

Guys get so defensive of opinions, nobody here tells us what cigars to smoke and we all like different things. I'm just saying, IMHO, the LCP is not a gun made for MOST mens hands, that's all.

Glock 26 9mm
Partagas Serie P No. 2 Tubos - Enjoyed one of these when I was in Japan with my Army brother. Stayed at the Turtle Inn in Nikko and enjoyed it in the lounge in the Inn with my brother, my brother-in-law, and some guy from the Philippines who happened to be staying in the Inn that night as well. Great times.

Most of my most memorable cigars are tied to a memorable experience with great company.

Well I wasn't planning on buying a new gun when I went to the range last night but I couldn't pass it up. I saw an old friend walk into the range with few guns that he was trying to trade/sell to the shop, one of them was a lightly used Rock Island Arms 1911 .45 compact. He told me all he wanted was $150 and since I had just won about $150 at the casino a few nights ago it was an easy decision. I wasnt a big fan of the packerized finish at first but I am really starting to like the rugged look.

I'd been in the market for a semiauto .308/7.62x51 rifle for a couple months. Not much luck, even the usual online suspects are sold out of so much stuff!

But I'm perserverant if nothing else. One of the local shops had a DPMS LR-.308 AP4 on the shelf a week or so back. Wasn't really leaning towards the AR-10 platform (more of an M1A enthusianado) but after handling the DPMS and doing just a tiny bit of haggling I walked out with it.

Only been able to shoot it about 60 yards so far but that was from prone and the bullet holes were piled on top of each other.

You got a steal there. That gun is at LEAST worth 2x that

I have a compact RIA 1911 like that but with fitted grips and I paid $300+ for mine. Definitely got a steal there.
