    CZ buys Colt

    CZ Already makes some of the most accurate guns: Shadows and TSO's. Dan Wesson is one of the best non custom makers of 1911's. So I don't see a down side of them acquiring Colt except for another Major gun name fading away. On the other hand if CZ can keep Colt relevant and even improve their...

    Top 5 Concealed Carry Mistakes

    I would throw in something else. Don't be reluctant to participate in a shooting sport like USPSA or IDPA. Yes, it is NOT defensive training. But you will learn to shoot accurately, shoot on the move, shoot under pressure, shoot in different positions, and get some good instructions. Be aware of...

    HELP - Looking For Holster (Hellcat OSP, Laser/Light)

    I have a Kimber Aegis with a red dot and contacted Dale Frickle to make an IWB holster for it. While not a great fan of Kydex the holster came out perfect. He will build with options for lights also. He will also do strange colors. I ordered purple, hell it is IWB no one will see anyway.

    Ammo Score!!

    I have said this before. My LGS showed me that he is only paying slightly more for ammo than he did a year ago. The issue is supply and price gouging. So he will limit selling to his regular customers 2 boxes at a time and to new gun purchasers, which are almost as hard to find as ammo. His...

    The .40 S&W Comeback: Great for Personal Defense and Available During the Ammo Drought

    Lucky for me I reload .40 and .45 so I have a decent amount of supplies for both. I never considered 9mm since it was so cheap to buy. I do have 9mm dies, brass, and small primers but not bullets. According to my LGS manufacturer's prices have NOT gone up that much it is just availability and...

    Oldie but a goodie... winter vs summer carry

    I rotate similar guns all the time. Occasionally a Sig P365 will be worn on belt or in pocket but usually I prefer a larger gun. On rare occasion a 1911 but here I am not fond of a safety on my EDC. The biggest change is on a rare really cold day here in SC i will drag out my Miami Classic...

    Rating the XD Mod.2 Triggers

    Neither was the Phantom or the P226. I was talking about triggers in general and improvements that can be made. On that front Gray Guns can make significant improvement on most triggers even strikers.

    Rating the XD Mod.2 Triggers

    A couple of thoughts. I find the trigger on my VP9 very nice. I put an Apex on a M&P to use in USPSA and it made a great difference. CZ Custom did reasonable work on a Phantom that made the DA/SA really nice. Sig did an Action job and SRT on my P226 that worked out great. Very few if any DA/SA...

    My Langdon Tactical XDE review made Guns & Gadgets Daily

    I recently ordered the Beretta Compact LTT Elite from Langdon with the trigger enhancement, NP3 work and barrel cut and crown. Now I need the patience to wait for it.

    Does Ammunition Have a Shelf Life

    I had some surplus AK ammo from the '80s that shot fine.

    Magazine loader

    I had two similar loaders that came with my VP9. They both broke with my P365. The Uplula rules.

    Reasons to Carry

    There are a lot of "sayings" of there but my favorite is, "Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it."

    If I seem a little pissed off this is why.

    What makes anyone on this forum think we will even recognize SCOTUS this time next year?

    Ammunition shortage winding down soon?

    The LGS can get ammo. My LGS keeps it in the back. If you buy a gun he will sell you some at a reasonable price. Practice and self defense ammo but only if a regular and good customer and if you have bought a gun. Same for his gun range. While $29 for a 50 round box of 9mm is not great he will...
