    Something to think about. A buddy of mine did the exact thing and went to the rescue of a woman that was being assaulted by her boyfriend. When he confronted the male, he was also assaulted and had to defend himself. Then the woman joined in and also assaulting the good Samaritan. When the...

    Recruiting issues

    I had total faith and confidence in My Army (1982-2005), but I cannot speak for today's Army. One thing is certain though, you cannot change culture (inside or outside the military) from the White House. Cultural change must be done from the inside and it takes strong leaders that are not afraid...

    To get the jab or not?

    The wife and I both got ours. My Mom convinced me that getting shingles is so much worse than the vaccination.

    I wonder why we do not see more rounded main spring housings on modern 1911s.

    Are There Differences Between Hollow Point and Solid Point Rimfire Cartridges?

    Definitely the lighting. The dark shadows are a waxy almost glue-like substance. It is almost like the wax turned to adhesive.

    I think I will go with CCI next time. They are priced well too.

    Are There Differences Between Hollow Point and Solid Point Rimfire Cartridges?

    I removed the wax and it feels like glue from the rounds and they now slide freely within the magazine tube. I may move onto something else that does not have this amount of wax.

    Are There Differences Between Hollow Point and Solid Point Rimfire Cartridges?

    I fired the last 200 rounds of the black box without issue and the magazines performed flawlessly. When I switched over to the red box, the issues started. Note. This was before I cleaned the magazines for the first time. I disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled the magazines. Afterwards, I...

    Are There Differences Between Hollow Point and Solid Point Rimfire Cartridges?

    I am experiencing an issue with newly purchased rounds not moving up the magazine body after a round is fired. Are solid point rounds taller than hollow point rounds? Can the amount of wax be an issue? Below is a list of equipment and associated issues, as applicable. - Ruger Mark IV 22/45...

    Is a .22LR round plausible for self defense?

    I inserted the wrong link above. Instead, this is the ammo that has been super reliable for me. Aguila Super Extra Hollow Point 22LR Rimfire Ammunition 500 Round Box https://www.scheels.com/p/64042001314.html

    Is a .22LR round plausible for self defense?

    It is definitely more reliable than in years past, at least in my opinion. I have run over well over a thousand rounds through my Ruger Mark IV and cannot remember how many misfires I had, but it was very few. Surprisingly, Aguila is the best for me in reliability. I am at the bottom of a 500...

    Taking up pipe smoking

    My stepdad died of lung cancer from heavy smoking. It later spread to his brain and other areas of his body. I would not wish that on anyone.

    I have family living in this county, and I am sad to say that they have been indoctrinated.
