    40 Caliber

    Nothing especially “wrong” with the .40 it’s just got tough competition from the warmer 9’s, it’s down on power compared to full boat 10’s, and harder to shoot well than a .45. Recoil is the reason the 10 isn’t “the”service round for PD’s today (just like the.41 Mag from back in the day.)...

    It Looks Like Thompson/Center Arms is Getting a Reboot

    The Contender or the old muzzleloaders were all special. I’ve got an old .32 Cherokee that’s sudden death on squirrels😊

    The snubnose

    This. I’ve carried a lot of different firearms over the years, but an old J snub just (for me at least) THE easiest firearm around to carry. In a Mika or similar pocket holster they just disappear in a pair of jeans.

    Then & Now: The Evolution of the Lever Action Rifle

    This.. Fugly. Plus a tuned ‘73 in .357 will run faster than any of them😊

    Gun Safes

    Browning, Ft Knox are both very good. As an aside, if you think you’ll bemoving in the future, a Zanotti modular is tough to beat. My son’s a (now retired) career Marine. He moved a lot and bought a Zanotti years ago to take with him. He’d knock it down, move, and then reassemble it on...

    Range Report: Muzzle Loaders and Plinking, 5/4/24

    That same cartridge info works for that .58 military rifle as well, sans the beeswax. (Need a larger disameter roller😏). You are basically replicating the ammo used during the civil war. For the rifle the commands were (1) draw cartridge (2) tear cartridge (pigtail in your mouth and rip the...

    Range Report: Muzzle Loaders and Plinking, 5/4/24

    Muzzleloader are great. Shot revolvers and rifles for years. If you’re into it, try making paper cartridges for your revolvers. Nitrated paper rolled into a tube with one end closed. Insert the ball. Dip the end with the ball into a beeswax mix, covering the end and the area where the...

    Wood grip feedback

    I agree. I’ve had great luck with Rosewood from Altamont-have them on a CZ75 and a Sig 938. Great product for the $$

    Daffy Zone…..

    Our 15 yr old dog is a Shiba Inu (think 1/4 scale Akita), hence “Shibadog”😊

    Daffy Zone…..

    Perfectly understandable-would YOUlike to try and explain the bs coming out of that place? Didn’t think so…me neither😊

    Heads up.

    What could possibly go wrong there😳

    Bittersweet Day

    My Jeep had that stupid auto start/stop. I bought a plug that goes in line, and voila, it stays OFF until I turn it on. In three years I’ve not ever turned it “on”🙄

    another stupid problem at white house

    Yup, a few square yards of concrete and the problem is resolved, but nooo, let’s spend millions. It’s the Dem way🙄

    Checked off a box on my Wishlist. Something unique.

    Understandable. You can tell it’s evil cause it’s got that dark finish and it’s ugly🙄. Now if they made ‘em in pink with purty polka dots they’d be friendly and welcome 😏. Stupid politicians. I’m old enough to remember the hew and cry of “there will be blood in the streets” when CC...

    Revolver or semi automatic

    Asking what’s “best” is impossible to answer unless you state “best at ….” That spiffy 365 would be a poor choice if you are trying to hunt or defend yourself from a huge bear. That 7 1/2 barrel .44 mag’s gonna be a mite tough to conceal, esp if you’re 5’5” and weigh 120, and the .44’s a...
