I have no clue where S&W has been, 'cause there ain't no stealth attack on the gun industry in the totalitarian state of California. It's been for a very long time a blatant, all-out phalanx attack on everything related to Amendment II of the United States Constitution, and We the People have...

Hi wmg1299, I was deeply saddened to have learned about your orthopedic and neurological injuries. Believe me, I have the most sincere and deepest empathy for you. I literally feel your pain. I've had eleven orthopedic surgeries, I need my right shoulder replaced, which will never happen, and...

A Ma Deuce fits perfectly in the bed of a '74 Datsun pickup. However, CHP will cite you if you leave brass on freeways. What if a person doesn't own a pickup? Where's the article about chic guns for Bentleys? I believe that Rolls Royce upgraded package includes a portrait of the queen and a...

Door Dash has made cooking obsolete. Whiskey is the best medicine there is. I'm trying to learn the art of distilling stump whiskey. However, I haven't yet figured out how to route a gas line to a still. 'sides that, my city requires a stump whiskey permit, and EPA wants an environmental...

Heck no. Dang freeloaders migrate to my home, clean out my fridge, sleep in my bed, and leave messes behind. And that's just my kids ;-)

How do you know that? Your reaction might initiate a gunfight inside a crowded store. The wise would allow the armed robber to leave unobstructed. Money can be replaced Lives lost cannot.

Hopefully you're a very wise sheep dog.

It's a far more complex issue. You do not want to become catalyst that results in a shooting which leaves a cashier dead. A shootout inside a Walmart has potential for carnage. No one wants to be the parent whose child died in a Walmart shootout. An armed robber isn't likely to murder a...

Competition is healthy within a capitalist economy. I do not envision the DS9 as competition. Double-stack 1911-A1s, not that the DS9 is a 1911-A1, are heresy. The few manufacturers who committed double stack heresy were shipped to Spain for inquisition ;-) They've been accused of other pagan...

My bet is Springfield Armory is swamped trying to meet overwhelming demand. I've never experienced a delay from Springfield Armory;s customer service. But I haven't had contact with customer service in well over a year, long before handgun demand increased geometrically. I'd imagine Springfield...

Hi wmg1299, Recoil becomes a substantial issue when cartridge is too much for handgun. The FBI load ain't fun to shoot out of a Chief Special. I couldn't imagine shooting a .357 Mag round out of a "J" Frame. The only handgun cartridge I hand load for is the .38 Special. From memory alone, a 3...

Hi unpatriot, I believe an unloaded EMP 3 9MM weighs somewhere darn close to 25 oz. The weight difference between an EMP 3 and a Chief Special is negligible. The performance difference between the two is wider than the Pacific Ocean. The weight of the EMP 3 is desirable. It mitigates recoil...

Hi wmg1299, If it's a .45 ACP, it exceeds my standards. I'll cop to never firing a striker-fired .45 ACP. However, light target loads are a blast to shoot out of a 1911-A1. I have no clue whether ammo manufacturers still market light .45 ACP target loads of 185 grains. While nothing has...

Hi Annihilator, Thanks for the info. You are 100% right. I know it's not an exact 1911-A1, but it's more close than close enough for government work ;-) I love it because it functions identically to a 1911-A1.

There was a cartridge war. The .45 ACP defeated all other combatants before a single round was chambered. What I have found to be most crucial is mating a suitable cartridge to a handgun that's easily concealed. I've yet to find a .45 ACP that fits that description. From my viewing angle, the...

Hi kruchnik, Springfield Armory's EMP line are phenomenally gorgeous handgun. But they're not too pretty to shot. An EMP 3 9MM is the same length of an S&W 2" Chief Special, smaller, holds more rounds, easier to control, and more reliable. I've tried carrying a 4" 586 off-duty. It was like...

Good Morning Annihilator, I'm good. If you're comfortable with your training, respond consistently with it. However, Annihilator, you might want to keep In mind that you could kill your attacker with a center mass hit, yet he'll live long enough to take you with him. My objective is to stop...

Hi Annihilator, The .40 S&W was not a compromise cartridge. The FBI's Firearms Training Unit scientifically determined the .40 caliber cartridges for law enforcement application were at their apex of efficacy with 180 grain bullets at ~1000 FPS. The .40 S&W was not a compromise. It was the...

10MM, I was wrong. It was a US Marine corps sergeant: He said Marines can disobey an unlawful order. That was a crucial statement. If gun confiscation were to become federal law, then marines would have no choice but to obey.

No. It was a years ago TV interview. However, I know what I saw. You might be able to find in on youtube.
