Sane advice here, I try to make sure I’m buying firearms with a distributor/warehouse/manufacturing facility in the states. I have a real fondness for the Tanfoglio’s (excellent firearms) but parts can be a bear to find.

I tip my hat to your experience in this area, and would relish the opportunity to know more about the structure of your class…it sounds intriguing and beneficial. I don’t want to reinvent the wheel in working the team I currently instruct. Oddly enough, I am employing the same approach that you...

Right, like a friend of mine says, “Everyone is entitled to their opinion…but mine is the only one that counts!” I think you two would get along famously!

I’m a huge fan of the 45-70 loaded with 400 grain lead loads at moderate velocities. It is my favorite load in the Encore Katadin residing at my place. A while back, a friend of mine was getting out of the 45-70 business and sold me 100+ boxed rounds of Winchester’s 300 grain express hunting...

I tend to agree with 1911Fan, I would just move on to another platform that I understood had a better track record. That’s just me. For instance, I now carry Beretta’s PX4 Storms in one configuration/caliber or another and have for a while but years ago, when they were young to the market I...

Curious regarding your comments on church security teams HereNow. Are they based on actual experience, empirical observation, or purely supposition? I was asked, by the eldership of a local church, to undertake the trainining of one such team 18 months ago principally to ensure that what you...

True...but not so true... I follow several sites on YouTube hosted by pro-gun lawyers/legal groups (Guns & Gadgets, Armed Attorneys, Armed Scholar, etc.) and the thing that amazes and appalls me is the political wrangling that goes on within the judicial system. It's a circus! Suit, counter...

Mercy!! Had never seen a side-by-side comparison of these two cartridges...The 45-70 is a long time favorite of mine not only for the history behind it, but its efficacy. And, I have a great deal of respect for its bark with modern loads, 300 grainers at 2200 fps. How does the 416 compare in...

A few things came to mind as I watched this video… It was, and I mean this constructively, extremely tedious for this viewer, I really don’t need to see all 10,000 rounds fired, I have confidence that if you tell me that’s what you’re going to do as a professional, that’s what will happen. What...

If you haven’t had the opportunity to read Dr. Joyce Lee Malcomb’s book Guns & Violence, you’ll find the YoueTube Video on that work, of all things, very informative. It’s a shame that ardent anti-gunners aren’t familiar with this work and the object facts it presents on the matter.

Indeed! I shot cowboy action for several years in Midland until I became jaded by the fact that if you could shoot fast enough, you could win despite considerable misses… That’s when I went down the road to IDPA. I was never “quick like rabbit,” but I was accurate. I thought everyone should be...

interestingly enough, I too love tooled leather gun belts; however, I have been absolutely frustrated by the fact that they do not have a sufficient number of adjustment holes on them! When I rig up for carry or competition, they are invariably too loose or too tight 😡. Consequently, I moved on...

I did not realize that Levi Strauss was an anti-gun, commie organization too. I guess I’ll have to put my Wranglers on now when I go to Starbuck’s…I mean Dunkin’ Donuts! 🤭

I suspected Hayes had some instructional experience… Thanks to all of you that do because from what I’ve witnessed via personal training, instructor certification, competition and instructing others, there is a decided need for folks “who have/stow/transport/carry a gun” to pursue an education...

Man can I empathize! I left West Texas for North Texas (trees, grass, water) in 2018 healthy as a horse…or so I thought, then along came 2019 and AFIB and cryo/laser surgery…what an absolute bummer!! However, today, I’m as health as a horse again…I think 🤔? At any rate, I’m back to normal...

Nice looking rig! It’s the same pancake style holster that I have recently adopted and use on a daily basis for “in town” carry. Mine is produced by Simply Rugged and features a “flab guard” or what others refer to as a sweat guard, which keeps the pistol off the body, more to the point, it...

After spending a small fortune in pursuit of a suitable AIWB rig for my 6’2”, 240 lb frame with a slight to moderate bulge in the mid-section, I gave up and went back to strong side carry employing a “Simply Rugged” OWB Cuda pancake holster for my PX4 Storm Compact Carry 9mm and couldn’t be...

Awesome collection…you can will me the one with the longer barrel please…I’ll be glad to send contact information if you like!

Nice heater…! Yes sir, handloading has been a distinct advantage for me personally, particularly now and during the O’bama reign. That is, IF you can find or have on hand the components necessary to produce the ammo. I started reloading in my early 20’s (quite some time ago) and casting in my...
