Glock 29 - 10mm, Marlin 1895 - 45-70 Gov't, and my BAR Safari in .243 Win or a 22 LR.

Sig P238.....an older model that was not ambidextrous. Every time I shot the pistol, my wedding ring (left-handed) would whack the slide release, and it would fall onto the ground. Also, not very accurate, and I am generally very accurate with my pistols. Even lost a shooting competition using...

I do. A model 65 chambered for .357 Mag. Great, great gun.

Me too.....303 British. The rifle never showed up at the gun store, so I sold the ammo.

I was quite prolific on the old Guns and Ammo forum and even connected with a couple of those guys in real life. We used to have a concealed carry forum for Utah and was even a moderator, but that died off years ago. I also frequent the XD Talk forum, but not as often as this place.

I don't cycle mine out very often. If I come across a really good deal on some outstanding SD ammo, then I'll buy it, hit the range, and cycle in the new stuff. Generally, I take out the SD ammo, set it aside, shoot the cheap stuff, then reload the SD ammo into the mags and go about my day. Bet...

I carry openly in the woods when we're out hiking. Other than that, since my state has a constitutional carry law, I carry....loosely. Mostly IWB, but if I have to carry OWB, I'll do it with a loose shirt over it and really don't care to hide it much.

I'm in Utah. Never seen a winter like this in my life. No measurable snow in my yard for over 12 months, and no measurable rain since October 2025. Let's just say we're in a bit of trouble for water this year.

Estoy leyendo mis escrituras en español para mantener frescas mis habilidades para hablar.

45-70, loaded with 300 grain Nosler Partitions, to about 2400 fps. They are......delightful.

When my boys were young, I took them to the desert to teach them gun safety, how to shoot, etc. I let them shoot their 22's at some pumpkins. I failed to bring enough ear protection for myself, so I opted to just plug my ears with some .357 brass I found lying around. Once they were done with...

That was a garbage article with lots of AI input and too little human oversight. I carry my concealed firearm between the 6-9 position - AND I'M LEFT-HANDED. :unsure: 12:00 is dead-ahead. Straight in front of you. 3:00 is straight out to your right. 6:00 is directly behind you. 9:00 is...

This is the 2nd bullet item in the Communist Manifesto. 1. Overthrow of capitalism 2. Abolition of private property 3. Elimination of the family as a social unit 4. Abolition of all classes 5. Overthrow of all governments 6. Establishment of Communist order with communal ownership of property...

I want this, but the compact version. For the compact model, I wonder if Springfield sells a magazine with the pinky extender?

Dinosaurized shoulder holster for my "weekend" carry rig. Me likey so far.
