    Keep waiting or get what I can get

    One way to look at it is once or if the rioting and looting stops depending on who wins the election tons of first time gun buyers may decide they no longer need the guns they bought and will put them up for sale. As for ammo well the copper mines in Chile are still closed which does not help...

    Keep waiting or get what I can get

    As others have said and I did, order the 10 round H&K and simply get some 17 rounders on line. You can always use them at the range if you don't want them for carry. H&K has them in stock usually as does Grab A Gun.

    Pocket Pistol Primer: Mastering Small Self Defense Guns

    While I do prefer a larger gun I have a Sig P365 which can be carried in the pocket in a DeSantis pocket holster. It replaced my PM9 which replaced my S&W J Frame. I found the Airweight J Frame just too painful to practice with so I replaced it. Now the 9mm Kahr was fairly easy to shoot. However...

    Concealed Carry: Point Shooting vs Aimed Fire

    Point shooting has it's place IMO especially shooting with one hand. Back when I shot in competition I had bad knees and one stage had the targets standing on the ground. So to avoid kneeling I squatted and one handed fired from the hip and scored good hits on all 3 targets. Four Alphas and two...

    Keep waiting or get what I can get

    The VP9 is a nice gun. I usually stick to hammer H&K's but decided to give the VP9 a try mainly because it was ready for an optic should I want one someday. A very accurate gun with a better than usual H&K trigger. I am not picking on H&K triggers they are my favorite guns but leave something to...

    Testing the Springfield Armory Vickers Tactical 1911

    At $1500 you are in Dan Wesson territory which would make me think twice, maybe three times.

    To Reload Or Not To Reload, That Is The Question

    I will repeat what I said previously that a progressive is no big deal. I am the least mechanical person around and I can use one. Best bet find someone that has one, a Dillon, so if you run into trouble you can get advice. Something to remember also is that when purchasing bullets there is...

    EDC Rotation

    Don't know. He likes carrying two J Frames.

    EDC Rotation

    I have a friend that carries two J Frames because 10 rounds is better than 5.

    New gun owners: 2.5 million and counting with current events

    I check my favorite 4 major suppliers for 9mm daily going through at least 7-10 pages of internet ammo. All OUT OF STOCK. The other day Natchez had some 9mm boxes for $17.50 by the time I ordered it was out of stock. I will not pay the bulk prices for 500 rounds that is more than the bulk price...

    Comfort in a holster

    I never liked Kydex holsters except for competition. My usual holster is a Mike's Special by T&T Gunleather. It is a Milt Sparks VMII Clone that IMO is a little thinner, sits a little lower, and has a better cant. He stands behind his work and only has about a 4 week delay. For a small P365 I...

    New gun owners: 2.5 million and counting with current events

    A down side is with the copper mines closed in Chile contributing to the lack of ammo it may be nice to have guns but they are basically a pretty paperweight without ammo. Not to mention with all these new gun owners it would be nice if they had ammo to practice. The little 9mm I have found has...

    Mag problems

    You can never tell with mags. I bought some Ed Brown mags that were complete garbage. All four malfunctioned in my Dan Wesson. Now Ed Brown did replace them but they are put aside for occasional range use not to be trusted. I am not familiar with SA mags but I know Kimber mags are not very good...

    Obtained Large Cache of Small Pistol Primers

    I have only used Federal and CCI. IMO they both are the best!

    EDC Rotation

    I rotate a few handguns, most H&K's. On very rare occasions I will drag out a 1911 only because I am not confident of a gun with a safety. This is a discussion for another day but if a Master Shooter in USPSA (seen it) can forget the safety under the stress of a match, how about the stress of a...

    Find the Right Carry Gun, Not Necessarily the Smallest One

    A good belt and a quality holster will go a long way. I live in the south and most of the year it is shorts and a loose cotton shirt. I have no trouble concealing my H&K VP9 17+1 rounds, P30 or 1911 Commander. For slightly smaller I love my H&K P30sk. I do carry a Sig P365 on occasion but prefer...

    .45 ACP

    Looking for a Hellcat? Go to Grab A Gun. They are usually in stock along with mags.

    Concealed Carry: Springfield Armory Hellcat

    1.5" groups at 25 yards? Yes that does seem like besides a great handgun a really good shooter. I am always skeptical of claimed groups.

    Concealed Carry: Springfield Armory Hellcat

    I have heard mostly good things about the Hellcat. The one negative that keeps on popping up is that if you press the trigger safety bar slightly to the side while pressing the trigger it will not shoot. Now as a Sig fan I will admit they seem to use their customers as Beta testers sometimes but...
