    Looking for an EDC

    I'm going to go put about 100 rounds thru it after work. Right now I have some Talon grips and the Sandstorm grip on the way. Once I get it all decked out, I'm going to cut out about 250 rounds of 9mm and take it to the range for a deep dive and see if I can figure out a sweet spot for the grip...

    Looking for an EDC

    I actually ordered the Sandstorm Precision "short Beavertail" model the day I bought the 43X, I'm hoping that will eliminate the slide bit issue. I'm determined to make the 43X work this time, it ain't the gun that has issues, it's me that has issues with the gun. I've read a few reviews on the...

    Looking for an EDC

    And in this week's episode of "I don't understand how my own brain works!" Here's a quick update on gun shopping last Friday Christmas Eve. All Christmas presents bought and accounted for, all green lights for Christmas chores, my boss at home told me I'd been relatively coherent and good for...

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    I've had no issues with them at all. the magnetic retention keeps the handgun secure and they break in pretty quickly for leather of this quality.

    Looking for an EDC

    LOL, I made a deal straight across at a gun show for a Gen 3 Glock 30S/SF with night sights that I really like. I think I took a bit of a loss but it's one of those hard won lesson type things. I had actually shot the Glock 48 prior to buying the 43X. I shot the 48 well enough, but the longer...

    Looking for an EDC

    Mirroring some of the posts from earlier, carry what you're comfortable shooting and what you can shoot accurately. I recently made about a $750 screw up by thinking the Glock 43X was going to be the end all be all of any EDC handgun I'd ever EDC'd...lol. I set it up with night sights, bought...

    Regrets

    You didn't break off at all, what you said makes a lot of sense. I very much appreciate your service to our country. That's one reason I know I should have went with my gut and joined the military, because I've ALWAYS, since I was a very young child, felt VERY deeply respectful of anyone in the...

    Regrets

    Biggest regret, not joining the Marine Corps after I graduated high school. I got cold feet, plain and simple, no excuses. My best friend who joined the Army right out of high school ended up becoming a friggin' Apache attack helicopter pilot, retired as a Captain a few years ago, and is now an...

    Beef.. Its not for dinner

    Damn, sounds like your are the person to consult on the hog hunting...lol. I can see where taking one down on the run would be a challenge no matter what caliber you're using, but it sure looks like it would be fun to try.

    Beef.. Its not for dinner

    Wow. Good to know. I've been watching a lot of feral hog hunt YouTube videos. I never realized how bad of a menace they are in Texas and other states. Guess I never thought much about them. I saw one guy using 55 grain Hornady V-MAX 5.56. It seemed to be dropping them ok, but I can see where the...

    Beef.. Its not for dinner

    I'd really like to go on one of those nighttime feral hog hunts. Looks like it would be fun and I'd like to try out my Colt M4 on a hog.

    Coolest gun moment in a movie

    I think my best friend and I watched this scene about 50 times. We kept rewinding and watching it over and over again. It's always stuck with me as one of the best concentrated bad-assery gunplay scenes ever in a movie.

    Cleaning Firearms: Bristling At The Thought?

    I've always like cleaning my firearms. One, it gives me valid excuse to be left alone for a while by the other members of my family.....cough cough...my wife....cough cough....lol, but I do enjoy breaking them down, cleaning them and oiling them back up. I like the smell of Hoppe's #9 so much...
