    Edge of Reality: Knife Attacks Suck

    Los Cruces. NM. just lost an Officer to a particularly gruesome knife attack by a transient sleeping in a parking lot. The Officer took multiple wounds including a stab to the neck and bled out in under a minute. A former military man put three shots on the attacker who died also. It is good to...

    i knew this was going to happen

    There's little real desire to "fix" the immigration process. The Left wants new supporters and voters as the DACA program children and anchor babies reach voting age and both Left & Right (two sides of the same coin) want cheap labor for their businesses. The fact that we've tolerated the open...

    Will You Use Your CCW If You Are Attacked?

    O/C works very well and Sabre Red is about as good as it gets. Everyone who carries should have a viable less-lethal tool with them when armed and should carry in a holster with some type of positive retention device.

    Finger Position, Triggers, & Accuracy

    Excellent explanation. The guy who taught me the most about pistol shooting used to have us put a BIC pen in the "Y" of our trigger hand with the tip up against the trigger finger. The exercise was about learning to curl the trigger finger back so the pen slid in a straight line. It's about...

    40 cal?

    I spent the last decade with the Gen4 Glock 23 as my issued work gun. I'm not particularly recoil sensitive and felt it was a decent gun for what I was doing. I like the Speer Gold Dot 155gr loading for it, although we randomly were given 155, 165 and 180gr ammo at the annual re-issue. I also...

    New EDC life phase

    Good idea! I didn't even think about fanny packs. That may be a good option for usnret30. The more modern ones have the buckle near the front so people can't unclip it and do a 'pull & run.' I really like the Vertx Everyday Fanny Pack and would have bought one -save for a minor disagreement...

    New EDC life phase

    By a large majority, most of my carry is a S&W Model 642 .38 Special in an Aholster in the right front pocket. I also have a Sig 239 in .40 which is the only S/A that I will carry AIWB. Pocket carry, AIWB or cross-draw seem to be your options. I doubt whether a shoulder holster would be the...

    Why Was Hip Shooting Ever A Thing?

    I'm old enough to have gotten to watch Bill Jordan of U.S. Border Patrol fame pulverize aspirin at 5 yards with wax bullet loads, shooting from the hip. He was a friend of my college instructor and gave a demo. The more modern version of this is Taran Butler running plate racks shooting from the...

    Be careful what you watch on YouTube

    For some it's a refresher for others it's just putting the tip of the toe into the water on the tracking, monitoring and overall data collection that is happening. The novel spelling on conspiracy theory was an attempt to mock those that give that moniker to concerned individuals. As with all...

    Too Much Tacticool: What is Truly Needed on a Home Defense Rifle?

    For household long gun use I'm much more oriented toward shotguns, preferably my 870P or a cut down Winchester Model 12. My only AR is a Colt 6920 with an Aimpoint T1 and a Streamlight weapon light -just a very basic set up.

    Is The .44 Magnum A Wise Choice For CCW Carry

    George Clooney's piece in From Dusk Till Dawn! That's a great old gun. Here's my 3" .44 -a 629 Carry Comp. It wears Pachmayr Compaq's and gets fed .44 Spl Gold Dots.

    Be careful what you watch on YouTube

    Google's inception came about with grants from DARPA the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency in the 1990's. That said, you'd have to be one of them cunspirasee theerists to see a nefarious connection with Google's Advanced Technology and Projects group (ATAP) -their version of a skunkworks...

    The Problem with Gun Violence

    One of the firearms organizations that I subscribe to mentioned that the term "gun violence" was 17% more positively viewed than the term "gun control" among those polled, so the gun grabbers switched over to that. The end goal is the same. My usual post would be that there is only "Criminal Use...
