    Who reloads either pistol or rifle

    I reload 9mm and .38 mostly for more economical practice. I have dies for other calibers, but rarely use them. I use whatever bullets I can get relatively cheap. My dad casts bullets, and sometimes supplies me. I used to play with his homemade lead ingots as a kid! Somehow, I didn't get...

    Rittenhouse not guilty on all counts.

    So you're the good guy only if you're the one that gets killed? Hmmm. I think you are incorrect about the nature of the events and the people involved. But if you aren't persuaded about that by now, I'm sure I can't do it. Have a good day.

    Tricking the voters

    Yes. They win only when they hide their true faces.

    So do I have a problem?

    I think the expression is, "An embarrassment of riches." Not a problem in my book.

    Rittenhouse not guilty on all counts.

    Many have observed that Mr. Rittenhouse was unwise to carry a rifle into an area of unrest. True, but only because it is always unwise to stick your neck out to try and do good. That doesn't mean it's wrong, or bad. He was there to try and protect people and property from violent, destructive...

    I Found One (So I Bought It)

    Sigh. I envy you. I hear Julie Andrews singing, "New guns in boxes and whiskers on kittens...these are a few of my favorite things."

    ATF "AR Pistol Spec Changes"?

    It's always been clear to me that "braced" "pistols" were an attempt to use sophistry to circumvent the obnoxious regulatory scheme against SBRs. Not that I care if you own SBRs. Fine by me. But the law is what it is, and there was no way ATF was just going to let this matter slide forever...

    Skill Set: Revolver Malfunctions

    In days of yore I carried my personal S&W model 66 .357 as a duty weapon. I did a lot of dry fire practice during slow periods at work. One day I took it out, unloaded and inspected it. I discovered the hammer mounted firing pin (called a hammer nose) was broken! You should have seen the...

    Where's a good place to look at Holsters?

    I recommend Mitch Rosen Gunleather. Their express line isn't too expensive, but couldn't be finer quality. When I got my holster, dual mag pouch and belt, I wept for all the years I wasted not having such beautiful gear.

    Winter changover

    Love your model 60 with 3" barrel! I don't have one, but have shot one. A pretty perfect carry revolver.

    Should You Shoot? Self-Defense Tips You Don’t Know

    I would implore everyone to go directly to the text of your state's laws to learn what justifiable self defense is where you live. Don't listen to other people, even lawyers and trainers, tell you what it is. Read and learn for yourself from the original source. Then you won't be led astray...

    The Firearms Confiscation Blueprint

    I must confess my comprehension of our currency system, cryptocurrencies, etc., is equivalent to an aphid's grasp of linear algebra. I try to read and understand, but none of it makes a lick of sense. I get the vague impression of some generally agreed upon madness, and this passes for an...

    Cover and Concealment in Home Defense

    I like that the video wakes people up to the fact that most things in their home will not stop bullets. How many times have we seen heroes in movies use a table or a couch as cover from an army of machine gun wielding bad guys? Reality check, please! A greater issue, in my view, is the...

    Miscellaneous Gun Quotes from the Buckeye Firearms Association

    "He that shall oppose and assault only with a shield to receive the blows...without a sword in his hand...will quickly be at an end of his resistance, and will find such a defense serve only to draw on himself the worse usage." - John Locke, in Two Treatises on Government (1690).

    Miscellaneous Gun Quotes from the Buckeye Firearms Association

    "If the innocent honest man must quietly quit all he has, for peace sake, to him who will lay violent hands upon it, I desire it may be considered, what a kind of peace there will be in the world, which consists only in violence and rapine; and which is to be maintained only for the benefit of...

    Miscellaneous Gun Quotes from the Buckeye Firearms Association

    "The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpations and arbitrary power of rulers...And yet, though this truth would seem so clear...among the American people...

    Oh my God! It just occurred to me, looking at the picture. What on earth does that hammer do?

    Lewis and Clark’s Air Gun

    Very cool. What an awesome piece of technology. And a great demonstration of the effectiveness of "peace through strength."
