One thing a lot of folks fail to keep in mind is that .38 and .357 are almost always loaded with slow burn powders. That is why the 38 is so extra anemic from a snubby. Even the mighty .357 is generating less lb/ft from a 2" barrel than a 9mm HST from a 3" barrel. And not by a little, but by...

Awesome, thank you so much! Congrats to the other winners!

I have a Romeo 5 on my Uzi Pro and it has been a great little sight for the price. I would not have any problems recommending it in the top 3 of the the 200 and under crowd of RDS's. Good dot, battery life and mount, and 5 year warranty. The finish is holding up well on the body, but the...

Not forgetting it, its just that its a Shield SMSc in a JP box. Same lens, sight, internals. And I have owned two, they were both kinda junk for the price.

I love the round, but I am not sure what niche this pistol fills. I hope it is a success and leads to more ammo offerings. If it breathes new life into the round and generates some more interest and development I am all for it. But as for a gun, I don't like any of Rugers polymer framed guns...

So first off, that old saw is an urban myth. By shortening the barrel you gain barrel rigidity and mechanical accuracy from reducing barrel whip and harmonics, assuming you have the right bullet and twist rate for the length. You do loose velocity, and how much depends on the cartridge, not on...

The Ruger is a solid offering, but shop around because you can find it a lot lower than list. I found one in 308 for just over 800. It is accurate, but its a bit cheap feeling for a precision chassis rifle. I don't care for the trigger or the stock, but it is easy to upgrade and a solid value...

SA P9C (CZ clone):

All of mine are shooters, but there are a few that some might consider safe queens. SA Omega 10mm CZ Bull Shadow custom: CZ pre B era 75:

The Sig Romeo Zero will mount in the Hellcat, but it is so new to market there are no real reports on it yet. Of course most of the reviews I have heard of the Shield sights are horrible, so its difficult to imagine the Zero being worse. If it performs as expected, it is cheaper (160-200) with...

I have a laser that is built into my weapon light for my carry gun, but it was more of a stand in until the Romeo Zero red dots started shipping. I find a dot to be faster and more accurate than a pistol mounted laser. IMO a laser is best used with NVG's in an IR setting, assuming your OPFOR...

Yes indeed. 3 weapons make up modern sport fencing, the foil, epee and saber. The epee is the direct descendant of the rapier/dueling sword and the entire body is valid target. When I was competing I was primarily an epee fencer, although I mostly just coach these days.

I don't really like to get into the "best" weapon. Mission determines gear, training dictates what tactics will be effective and just as everyone has different budget/home/neighbor/kids equation, they have different levels of training. Realistically, there are so many scenarios and topics...

They didn't make it, but it is one that they private labeled and assembled from very good Israeli parts kits on Imbel receivers. It would be a great gun I bet, all the SA private labeled FAL, G3 and CZ75 guns I have looked at or owned have been well made and great shooters. I believe they...

Myself and a bunch of folks in VA are more or less fed up with the NRA at the moment. They did not even spend our dear leaders wardrobe budget for the year on defending the state their own headquarters is located in. The Virginia Civil Defense League and Gun Owners of America are the ones on...

It is pretty bad, and new levels of crazy keep getting put into bills as the politicians try to outdo each other. Just today there were bills introduced to ban indoor shooting ranges except for police, ban open carry inside your automobile, and to make all out of state CWP holders comply with VA...

Sig 365 XL for me. Upgraded to it over the summer, before that I was carrying a 365 since Feb of 2018.

My "nightstand" gun is a bit of a beast with a can, light and RDS so it lives attached to the side of the nightstand with a magnet strip. I also have a KSG with light and RDS within arms reach in the bedroom, but that's more of a thing to hand to the wife while I clear the house, should the...

I go at least once a week for handgun, and once or twice a month for rifles. I only get my shotguns out a few times a year. I will do 1-200 rounds on the rifle range, but I do between 3-5 on the pistol range. That's not counting a couple of matches a month, with a 1-200 round count per match...

Most of us were in the mid to high 2 seconds (2.41 for me), with a couple folks taking their time and drifting into the high 3's, but these are all competitive shooters, so keep that in mind. What surprised me was the number of people who rushed the first shot and missed high, and it was high...
