After many years working in an ER and having seen many bullet wounds the .22 is a killer, it just may take longer or not. The Jews killed many Nazis with .22s their calling card was two to the chest and one to the head. My dad bought me a beretta 21-A as a backup gun for my first LEO job it rode...

I usually carry a combat commander style 1911 (that means it’s not a Colt) it’s a super lightweight made from scandium and one ten round Wilson combat magazine in a custom rig that also holds a 750 lumin tail switch combat light (can you tell I like the word combat?) I always carry a spare mag...

I have to choose one? When my daughter was younger I went for a Glock 9mm, frangible ammo with a mounted light laser combo and night sights because I wanted to keep a hand free to push a family member out of the way or slam a door or open a window. Now weapons are staged, there are two shotguns...

Use what works for you, there are so many choices! And all are good if it fits your living conditions. However, I like frangible ammo in a pistol or rifle, our internal walls are two pieces of Sheetrock thick and we should think about a shoothrough on a person or a miss, what about the baby in...

Just wondering what Epeeist means, stands for, acronym? Last name? Want to know about like minded shooters.

Training with similar drills over many years, one that stuck was a draw and shoot to the pelvis it stopped the overtravel momentum, it was supposed to be great for to close for comfort perps and was supposed to fold the person in half and shock the skeletal system. We used to use a front kick to...

What was average time for a shot on target?

I was in Alaska fishing for dolly varden on the Russian river, I borrowed a 10mm Glock, 2 spare mags all in a leather chest rig loaded with solid hard cast bullets. I thought it was the best choice. I explained my reasoning to him, he just threw his head back laughed and told me it was a girls...

Mr. Moderator, as soon as I figure out how to start a new thread discussion, I will. I may call it trauma bags and training. Now how do I start?

Mr. Moderator, you alluded to, only one person responded to help the victim. So my comment is. six guns but no trauma kit? Could someone have stopped blood loss and possibly saved the second victim? We carry guns, we train with guns, why don’t we take an EMT or first responder course. Where was...

Just a strange question. Is the AK the most prolific or has the AR surpassed it in numbers? How would we find out? And I don’t want to take this thread in a different direction.

Doesn’t seem like a good business decision, that would kill a Garand match with surplus ammo.

Great question! I like them both. However, let’s not forget the FN/FAL.

I have been trying to count how many armed parishioners responded was it six? Or more? What hurts the most is the second man shot who got up off the floor and sat down on the deacons bench, dazed and dying. The reaction of his daughter screaming daddy! Daddy! And getting to him in the panic. And...

I just attended a very large pre-Christmas gun show, there was one hellcat in the whole place! So many people were in line to hold it that I couldn’t get to. The lady behind the table stated she was taking bids and had been offered $700.00 so far! It must be a great pistol based on the huge...

I have a seabag full of holsters none work well all the time, few are ever comfortable, but carrying a pistol is comforting to me, do you ever feel not well dressed just going to the mailbox? I carry several different guns but a Springfield 1911 is my church gun carried OWB at 3 0clock under my...

And that is a lot of wisdom!!!
