After traffic slowed down a bit, it seems the sister forum for Caracal pistols has been inundated with spam bots. Going through that site is now like walking through the remains of a town that's been bombed to hell and back; to find anything useful, or even remotely recognizable, you have to...

Just curious I bought a M40 A-1 today at local gunshot. I have owned a M40 for quite a while and noticed the M40 a-1 doesn't have the loaded chamber indicator. The instruction manual indicates it should have one so I am a bit confused. I knew the manual safety was gone and the addition of the...

Met the venerable and amiable Jeff Reece at the show, yesterday... he remembered my last name from emails. He is just as friendly and great to be around as he sounds on the phone. I got to check out the L9-A1. The plastic frame is longer and the slide and sub-assemb. won't fit into the older...

Greetings from Sunny South Africa. Does anyone out there know if the ST-01 Trijicon sights will fit my S9. We recently had a Hunting show here and Trijicon had a stand. They however were at odds to tell me if the ST-01 would fit the S9. I suppose the question is are all the sight slots the same...

I have already submitted ads for 2 handguns (Glock 27 and Springfield 1911) in a local classified publication. When you guys sell, do you meet at a neutral location or do you have them come to your house? Also, on bills of sale, do you include your name and address? If you haven't already...

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...

Hi I am new to the Steyr pistols. I am just wondering if any one can help me?. I have had a M9 A1 for about 2 months now and the only ammo it seems to like is American Eagle all other brands I use give me multiple FTE. Is this normal it's had about 1000 rounds run through it. Love the gun the...

I'm looking to buy A Steyr Scout in .308 . To purchase this rifle is no trile sum for me. That being said I'll admit I'm a bit of a gun snob. I know this rifle is somewhat one of a kind. Is it really worth it ? I do want the best. Tell me why this rifle is tops, or is there a better option ?

I ordered several 17 rd 9mm mags last night @$28 a pop from SAI online. I went back today to check the status, and they honored that price and are processing the order. But, the mags went overnight to $38. I guess the good news is that they are still shown in stock. If you can use them, it...

I was in my LGS today and of all guns he could deal with me on it had to be a Gen3 Glock 19. I said I would never own one because of the grip but given the current worries over gun bans I could not pass up the gun brand new with 3 extra 15rnd mags. Guess what, it's brand new and already has a...

Hi. New lurker on the forum. My searching in the forum and out in the www are leaving me empty so i have to ask ... Where can I Buy a New Steyr M9-A1 that is in stock? I can find a lot of S9s and those in 40 as well but not that one, other than a few used ones that are either old or Grey it...

Bob Costas' rant during Sunday Night Football was a dumb as anything I'd ever seen. His silence about the second NFL tragedy just underscored his massive ignorance on gun fatalities versus DUI fatalities, or maybe it's allowed in his space to kill your friends by driving drunk at high speeds...

First post fellows.I am going to make a trade tomorrow for a Caracal C with QAS. The Caracal has had 300 rounds down the tube but looks new. I am trading my Gen 3 Glock 26 with night sights for it. The Glock is in good shape with about 2000 rounds down the pipe. Do you guys think it was a good...

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...

Hi there fellow Steyr devotees Just quick mention that atlast mainstream movies have picked up on what an excellent weapon the STEYR M pistols are, as was used extensively by the hero/main character, Brian Mills (Liam Neeson)in the new "TAKEN 2" movie, which is a sequel to the excellent "Taken"...
