difference

Hello Steyr Club, I have a latest generation Steyr M9-A1 that I bought brand new. I have always thought it was particularly hard to rack/chamber/cock, etc. My friend has an identical steyr and when handling his I did notice that in comparison his was a lot easier to rack the slide back. I...

Greetings from smokey Colorado. After trying out a friends Steyr, I found and purchased a used M9-A1 at the gun show this past January as my first ever handgun. I love the gun, but I have had numerous extraction failures. It seemed to be mostly linked to the remanufactured bulk ammo I had...

G,day all, I recently recieved my new M40A1. The manufacture date is LOD. So I contacted Steyr Austria about a possible Extractor upgrade and they in turn sent me one via North Sylva here in Toronto. It arrived free of charge in a very timely manner. I just have one question and I apologize if...

Hey guys, just got in my Steyr AUG A1, with 5 original clips and 4 new 42 round clips, Im trying to load in the .223 ammo i have here at the house and it does not seam to want to stay in any of the mags, the first round will hold the second and so on just pop out when you move your hand off.. I...

Hey guys, I've been shopping Viridian's offerings lately and I'd like a laser/light set-up but I've got a couple of questions. Which one for an M-A1? C5L? I Found a lightly used "universal" X5L locally, would that work? What's the difference between the standard C5L and Zombie edition? (Just...

Does anyone know what accessories for a Glock can fit nicely on the Steyr M series?

When I go to the post a classified ad page where it asks you your email addy after I click on the continue this pops up "Couldn't make a connection to your marketplace. Please start over." Tried it several times with the email I registered in, and a few other emails too, just to see if that...

Hey all, happy Easter and hope you're having a good one. I had some down-time between; church, eating, hanging out etc. Soooo I decided to swap on a Blackhawk stock/forend set on my Remy 870 clone (H&R or New England Firearms- Partner pump 12g) It makes SUCH a drastic difference to handling...

I was "lucky" enough to score 2 boxes of 50rds each (100rds total) of Winchester SXZ 9mm Luger 115gr FMJ Flat Nose "Training". Has anyone else had experience with this ammo? My M9-A1 ran great and all but as I was disassembling it to clean it tonite, I noticed it was extremely dirty after...

Just wanted to say hi to everyone and show off my new AUG I just got. I really love this rifle, can't wait to start adding the optics and accessories.

I recently purchased a new model M9-A1 and was curious to see if there were any significant changes made from the previous models. I previously owned an older steyr that was just badged as an M9 with no further designations. Keep in mind I had no issues with the previous pistol and was actually...

Title says it all, that's my question. I'm looking for a Steyr to conceal-carry and for some reason have always been researching the M series, but it's my understanding the S or C (is it?) are basically the same gun just smaller. Do any of you carry the M9? Should I go w/ a smaller version...

I braved the cold today with my grandpa to go do some shooting. We were both using 9mm - I had my Steyr C9A1, and he had a Sig P250 compact. We stuck my Viridian C5L on the bottom of his gun, though even the green laser was a bit difficult to see on the snow in the bright daylight...

Hello everyone,first post here. I am hoping some of you here can offer some suggestions. I stopped by Cabela's tonight and took a look at the S-A1. To make a long story short, they fit me like a glove. I was able to put both a 9mm and 40 cal on hold for 5 days while I decide what to do. I...

So I was awoken this afternoon (worked night shift in ED last night) by my twin brother who could not stop RAVING about the Steyr Ma1 40 S&W I made him buy. He went on for minutes and said after the very first shot he was a fan and "in love." I am still waiting for mine to show up by mid...

Sorry guys and gals, but I do have a stupid question. I have one holster coming from HighDesertLeather coming...an OWB that I ordered for my S9. Now, I will soon be the proud owner of an S40 also. Basically my question is will my new toy necessitate a new holster? I am seeing it is a 3.5mm...

Hi everyone, I have been poking around on this forum for a bit and thought it was high time I joined. I am at a bit of a crossroads. I have a m9a1 on hold at cabelas, yes, it is the hybrid model from Imported through PW. It is on sale for $379 as noted by others here. My question is pretty...

Hello guys, I haven't posted anything here in a while, but I was real busy. Can anybody school me on what to expect from one of MSAR Inc. offerings? Especially the new ones that came into production recently. I'd like to know of any know issues, positive points, things to watch out for, etc...

I picked up a new c9-a1 and brought it to the range for the first time and had issues with the slide not locking back after firing the last round. i have two 15 round mags and it happens about 40% of the time, due to excitement of my new steyr and frustration of malfunction i wasn't aware of...
