    Range day, a confirmation of what I keep thinking, and a quick review of new hearing protection

    That's one type of handgun I've never had the opportunity to procure is an actual 1911 style .45ACP and I absolutely love the look of the Springfield Ronin. I've seen some 1911s on this site that made me drool...lol. The .45 below is my albatross handgun...lol Just like it is in this pic, almost...

    Range day, a confirmation of what I keep thinking, and a quick review of new hearing protection

    I am definitely going to put the Shield 45 2.0 Performance Center on my list of to have handguns, I think that version is ported and I've never shot a ported 45ACP before so someday when I save up enough, that will be my next handgun purchase. The CZ shoots flawlessly, I mean really flawlessly...

    Range day, a confirmation of what I keep thinking, and a quick review of new hearing protection

    No problem. Let me know how those work. I'll still be searching for a decent pair of ear buds for an indoor range, if such even exist...lol

    Range day, a confirmation of what I keep thinking, and a quick review of new hearing protection

    Decided to have a solo range day this last Saturday at my local indoor range. I cut out about 250 rounds of 9mm and 100 rounds of 45ACP from my reserves and decided to take my three Taurus handguns, the G3, G3C, and G2c, my CZ P10C, my Smith and Wesson Shield 45ACP and lastly my nightstand home...

    When Is Using Your CCW a Mistake?

    Good video. Very well put. I'll try for any and all outs from a situation before I think about pulling my firearm. What did Mr. Miyagi say....something to the effect of "Best defense against a punch, don't be there." That's how I try to think about situations. I'm about as boring as a slice of...

    Magpul stock wobble fix?

    I used electrical tape when I had the Magpul MOE stock on my Bushmaster. It took two strips down each side and one on top, but it didn't move a centimeter after that. The electrical tape solution has always seemed to work on most rifles I've had or have.

    Gloves

    Several years ago, I decided to put some rounds thru my Glock 19 wearing a pair of Blackhawk gloves. I'm not sure if wearing the gloves made me forget where to place my hands on the pistol or what but I choked up WAY too high on the grip. One round, a large hole in my glove, and a strip of...

    Gloves

    I'll go off the grid on this one. I've tried a bunch of different kinds. I have sasquatch sized mits so I have to have an extra large sized glove. I tried Blackhawks, Mechanix, and some other other brands. I took a recommendation from an LE friend who also has large hands and he recommended a...

    And yet another issue with my .308 - I'm getting beyond fed up

    Maybe a gas key adjustment? If it's not kicking the round out consistently. I had that issue with one of my AR15s a couple of years ago. I had a low profile gas block installed but it wasn't adjusted correctly and there wasn't enough gas to blow back and kick the round out completely. I took it...

    Should You Carry Your Gun With an Empty Chamber?

    This is such good advice. This is exactly the method I used to logically convince my OCD brain that the handgun was not going to go bang unless I made it go bang. A couple of weeks of using the snap caps and something just finally clicked in my head, been carrying loaded for about a year now, no...

    Before They Made Guns, Glock Made Knives

    I bought a couple of Glock knives years ago and they were very sharp right out of the package. I've actually never had to re-sharpen either of them, light use on both, but they've kept an edge very well over the years.

    Are You a Soft Target?

    "Scowl" is exactly the word I'm looking for. A combination of tired, irritated, and overall not in a good mood. My dad has had this look mastered as far back as I remember...lol

    Are You a Soft Target?

    I'm soft AND squishy for the most part, but I do maintain a high level of situational awareness at all times. I've been told I have my dad's very non-friendly eyes...lol which keeps me from having people approach me for the most part. I do try to convey an air of "I'm not the guy to ask for...

    Disarm SRO's-In Indiana of all places

    Brilliant idea. Let's collectively, as a school and community, bury our heads in the sand and pretend we live in Mayberry circa de 1950. Disarm sworn police officers? The fact that idea is even being mentioned much less put into action tells quite a bit about our current level of common sense...

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    That's some nice handguns and a nice rifle to trade in, but I can completely see the justification to do so to get that Wilson Combat 1911. One of my LGS is an official seller of Wilson Combat handguns and I'm telling you, I spend most of my time when I'm there perusing the Wilson Combat...

    Taurus Announces Their New Higher Capacity Micro Nine, the GX4 11+1 Pistol

    Looks like a smaller version of the Taurus TX22, too small of a grip for my big old paws to wrap around.

    Shooter stopped

    I agree. I hope they don't try to prosecute him. With our current political climate toward firearms, you just never know.

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    It's certainly a beautiful weapon. A Wilson Combat 1911 is on my bucket list. Their shop is about 1.5 hours away from my house, I used to shoot IDPA over there long ago and far away.

    Well that's just a thing of beauty right there....WOW!

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    That's my nightstand home protection handgun. I added a Crimson Trace tac light to it but other than that, it's stock.
