Hey there, I am new to handguns in general, and just purchased a Steyr M40-A1. I love the way this gun feels and shoots, but noticed primer swipes that have me a little concerned. From researching it seems others have primer swipe marks with this gun as well, but when the swipe extends all the...

So I just received an Email from Dr Piaza or in my friend of circles he is known as Pizza-Boy. Anyhow His latest scam is to charge you a $500 and soon to be $1000 transfer fee for all of your To Be Determined memberships that you may have stocked up from all his "other deals" I confirmed this...

Has Steyr, do they, or anyone know if in future products that Steyr make a 9mm Carbine? by that I mean one similar to what Caracal is now doing with the CC10 9mm carbine that takes the same mags as the C/F pistols. What I want is a 9mm carbine from Steyr that will take the 17rd mags from my C9...

Hey guys, just thought I'd check in, I tend to lurk, read a lot but decided to "take the plunge", this seems like a great forum and TONS of info. I've read quite a few posts where other members were having complications with their Steyrs and that got me to thinking (dangerous I know) I have an...

Need guidance on cleaning the firing pin channel. Hi All, Can someone direct me in the right direction on how to clean (disassembly and reassembly) the firing pin channel for the M9A1? I figure it's time for a thorough cleaning. Thanks.... Jubal

Hey guys I'm new here and have a question! I joined here because I'm very interested in the Steyr M9A1. BUT, I can't find it for sale anywhere online. Does anyone know where I can pick one up in the next few months? Thanks! dwa

I bought an S40 yesterday and like my brand new S9 it is having the battery click issues. I saw someone had posted the video of polishing up the firing pin where it rolls over the roll pin, to a point I do believe that this has SOME to do with the issue. I believe the REAL issue is the firing...

Just wanted to say hi...I recently purchased a M40 and absolutely love it. Look forward to learning more and picking up another Steyer in the future.

Interesting story developing about a Caracal C slide fracture and separation during live fire. Thought some Caracal owners may be interested... Original Thread Here. EDIT: The purpose of this post was for informational purposes only, and not intended to dissuade anyone from the Caracal...

Background: My first non-issue firearm was a Steyr M9-A1 circa Christmas, 2007. I loved the handgun, though I did have the old "short" magazine spring issue, and Jeff was kind enough to send me a replacement extractor upgrade. Later, when SAI dropped the M9 line from the market, I ditched the...

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...

Popped in to introduce myself after spending endless hours perusing this forum, whose members were ultimately, responsible for me choosing as my CCW and nightstand go-to, the S9-A1. I wanted a subcompact and it came down to the Steyr or a Sig P238. Obviously I went with the former but...

I have been looking to buy a few 12 round mags for my M40-A1. I called Steyr because the website has listed M40 mags and I wasn't sure if the A1 accepted the same mags. It took me a few days to get through to Steyer. They answered today and told me that they JUST sold out!! Where else can I go...

Hello all. I'm new to Steyr, the forum, and to gun ownership! My Steyr m9-a1 is my first gun. (third if you count BB guns when I was a kid) I went to the range with it and three boxes of ammo and had a really good time. I pulled the trigger 150 times and each time the gun fired, the brass was...

I am very very interested in purchasing a Steyr handgun or an M&P. I have some questions and hope you can offer me your advice/help. I currently own 3 XD's. 2 service models a 45 and a 9. My other one is a tactical model 40 S&W. I am interested in a 40S&W. However which model would I or...

I am in the process of exploring heavy medium bores for my next rifle, and I am intrigued by the 376 Steyr. While I find the 376 Steyr interesting, it appears that it may not have much of a future. A single source for ammo (and therefore brass) makes on highly dependent upon Hornady. I would...

Is there a replacement spring for the GB mag. I can't find any on the web, but given all the different mags on the market, has anybody found a replacement? Even if there is some mods needed, I'm just looking for one that will function properly.

I always did want to have a Glock, but without the price tag attached to it in our part of the woods ($3500 or above!). I did strictly consider getting a Steyr M9A1 (3rd Gen, before the roller based striker pin!), but that too at $2500 was still pretty steep. Then came news of Caracal, and its...

After more FTF's today I got mad and decided to take the M40 trigger group out and discovered the culprit!! Good old part#32 the drop safety is broken :cuss::cuss::cuss: I an going to call Monday morning to check part availability.

Now that I have your attention... I haven't seen very many M-A1 series or any of the Caracal pistols at the local shows, but today I saw both. 2 different tables had them side by side and that made for a great chance to compare. Those of you that already own both may agree or disagree with a...
