    What knives do you daily carry?

    I generally carry a Kershaw 3/4 Ton, I find the overall size/shape of the blade to be just about perfect for any typical day to day uses I have. Holds an edge well and is regularly found for under $20, so I don't feel bad if it goes missing or gets abused a little.

    defense ammo

    Practice, practice, practice. Of course with availability and pricing, burning through several hundred rounds of defensive ammo may not be the feasible for everyone.

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    I keep it simple: Summer- 3.3" XDS Mod. 0 in .45, factory 5 round magazines with Pearce +1 extensions. Holster is an Alien Gear 3.0 IWB, occasionally I'll carry appendix if I know I'll be on my feet most of the time. Winter- XD Mod. 2 subcompact, also in .45, stock 9 and 13 round mags. Holster...

    Your first Springfield......

    3.3" XDS in .45 about 4 years ago. Was planning in going with a Shield, but there was no .45 option at the time. It's been 100% reliable, easy to carry and I shoot it well, can't ask for much more than that. Of course that led to me adding a suppressor ready XDM, a 3.8" Mod. 2 sub compact and...

    Your favorite Springfield

    I really like my Mil-Spec 1911, but I think my overall favorite is my suppressor ready XDM .45 in FDE. Although my XD Mod.2 SC is a close second.

    Ok, which gun do you regret getting rid off....

    Just one, not so much that I got rid of it as it was part of an estate that was inherited by another family member. I should have bought it from them. Smith and Wesson 1076, with 3 spare mags. IMO if you're wanting a 10MM it's hard to get much better than the 3rd Gen Smith and Wesson's.

    1911 holsters.

    I carry my Mil-Spec OWB in a Bianchi Remedy leather holster. For an 'off the shelf' holster it's pretty decent. Thick leather and good retention. The only issue, and it seems common, is the belt loops were a little narrow for thicker style gun belts, so I needed to use a razor blade to open...

    Weapon Cleaning Preferences

    Parts that need oil, such as trigger springs, get Lucas Gun Oil. Parts that slide get CherryBalmz Black Rifle Balm grease. For cleaning I use Birchwood-Casey Gun Scrubber and hose everything out. Brake parts cleaner will work as well, just have to be careful around certain plastics or...

    How much spare ammo do you all carry?

    On my person I always carry 1 spare mag, usually an extended capacity if it's an option. That means an 8 round mag if I'm carrying my 1911, a 6 or 7 round mag if I'm carry my XDS and a 13 round round if im carrying my XD Mod. 2 SC. I generally have a 3rd mag either in my vehicle or in a...

    KRISS Vector Chambered in .22 Long Rifle for 2020

    Eh, there's a billion other .22 rifles I'd go for before a Kriss. I guess you could make the argument that it's meant to supplement the other chamberings as a training rifle, but still. The manufacturers must feel there's a glut of .22 ammo on the market or something, this is like the 3rd or...

    Must Have Mods for your XD series gun?

    I generally run mine carry guns 'stock', no real reason other than I just prefer to. That said, I do typically change out to night sights if they didn't come with the gun. Still need to get around to this with my XD Mod 2 SC since I've been carrying that 99% of the time lately.

    Critical Defense or Federal HST?

    HST is a fantastic round in just about all calibers. I'm a huge fan of the 230 gr +P flavor myself. It's also extremely affordable, Target Sports usually has it for 50% off in the hard to find 50 round boxes. In fact they just started a new sale today. 9MM is $20 per 50 .45 is $22 per 50
