Excellent article by Tom Smith! Thanks for sharing it with us. I really appreciate his conclusion about packing a firearm because it has application for any potentially dangerous encounter with 4 or 2 legged predators. If you train frequently for profiency with a firearm under self-imposed...

Okay, so if you don’t mind, I’d like to chime in here and give you my tenured (73 years of life, 63 years of guns) thoughts. If you’re curious about the 40 S&W XDM subcompact pursue it, life is short and meant to be enjoyed within the limits of reason and finances. But, some things to think...

I’m going to cop your response to your wife and use it myself. Folks who don’t suffer from this addiction, just don’t have a clue…🤓!

I’d be joining you, but I think I lost my braced pistols in a boating accident…I’ll have to check and get back with you on that…🤓!

That required some quick thinking and strategic planning on your part…I like it; however, I will not be joining you on a hunt in bear country…just saying…🤓!

In personal defense situations at 21’, the probability of supressing an armed assailant (with a knife say) without injury is pretty remote if you’re not moving as well. I’m definitely not going for the pepper spray first…at all actually…we’d both end up disabled due to proximity of the blast...

I absolutely agree, but he will most certainly have you for dinner if you don’t…🤓!

I bet, and I suspect puckered up as well…😵‍💫! Stay nimble!

I need to remember this when I venture into bear country as I suspect I might have difficulty distinguishing one species of bear track from another otherwise. Thanks for the tip…😂!

A very astute observation and humerous as well! I like it 👍!

I live in North Texas, no grizzlies here at present. But, I enjoyed the article’s focus on OC spray. I lead and train a church security team and have often given thought to the utility of less-than-lethal means of defense. Our principal objective is to stop any threat outside the confines of the...

I agree with youngolddude, there is no reason to pull them, just run them through your rifle/pistol. Small pistol primers are not as hot as small rifle, so I would anticipate the only difference you may see will be in the ballistics (more erratic velocity/standard deviation, etc.), but if you’re...

Yes sir, and any other professional with his tenure and experience. I actually feel like I might learn something of benefit from them…apparently you do not, which begs the question, why are you here in the first place?

More than happy to remain quiet in the main, but as I get older, I find it harder to abide the pseudo authorities who makes assertions relative to subjects about which they obviously have no substantive knowledge. Everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion, but if they choose to take issue...

Actually I am, but I have a great deal of disdain for those whose remarks reflect disrespect for contributors like Mr. Huntington who takes the time to share his insights with us, which frankly, I greatly appreciate! I’m an ardent disciple of Thumper who said to Bambi, “If you can’t say...

You’re not alone…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...

I like colorful Hawaiian shirts, although I don’t see many of them around my adopted North Texas ranching community homestead. And, I’m not too proud to wear one either…if it was good enough for Tom Selleck (my peer in age) after all, why not me? I’m also thinking I could cut down significantly...

What a pleasure…to encounter a physician with a passion for firearms. Go Will Dabbs!
