I like the hybrid holsters too (including Alien Gear) but I also like the IWB and OWB holsters from Muddy River. VERY comfortable IWB holsters in particular.

I have a CZ PCR and a Beretta PX4 and they both are pretty much ideal carry pistols. Nothing wrong with the P365XL either and I often carry a Kahr .380 in an Alabama holster in my right front pocket when I want to be really stealth. But I grew up shooting the 1911 platform in .45 Auto and no...

I wonder why DA/SA pistols have fallen out of favor for Law Enforcement. I like the 1911 and carry them a lot, with my preferences leaning towards the Lightweight Commander or the Colt Defender. But a DA/SA 9mm would seem to be a good choice from a standpoint of safety for both the officer...

Muddy River holster -- but I do like the blues.

Today I am carrying a Sig 938 in a Muddy Waters IWB at 4 o'clock and it carries very easily.

There are a ton of 9mm pistols available now a days that are of excellent quality and are suitable for every day carry. That was not the case years ago and in the 1960s through the 1980s the P-35 was really a fine choice. Today is it probably more of a fun curiosity and certainly can be an EDC...

My very first pistol was a Browning P-35 purchased in the early 60’s. I kept it until last year when I gave it to my nephew (who was lusting for it). Then I missed it but became aware of the Springfield SA-35. I contacted my favorite gun dealer and asked him to order one. That was 6 months...

I have an essentially new (very few rounds through it) Ruger GP100 4" in .44 Spl. For field use I bought Buffalo Bore 44 Special 255 Grain Lead Keith-Type Semi-Wadcutter Gas Check cartridges from Midway. They claim 1000 fps at the muzzle. That should be a potent round for what ever comes my way.

Another hanguard/rail possibility is the VLTOR one. It extends all they way to the stripper clip and should be good for a more over the receiver scope. https://www.vltor.com/shop/m14m1a/handguards-m14m1a/casv-14-m14-rail-system/

KillerFord1977 -- that FN FAL really looks nice!

Keystone1925 -- I have a Burris 2x7x40 scout scope on the ultimak rail. I can't say regarding heavier scopes. With the scout scope there is no problem and I have to say that the attachment of the rail to the rifle seems well thought out and very secure.

You can mount a long eye relief scout type scope on your rifle using the OEM picatinny rail. If you need a cheek riser, consider Bradley cheek risers for the M1A. Or, you can remove the OEM scout rail and hand guard and replace those parts with an Ultimak rail...

Yes. I have seen that video before and generally respect Ayoob. These are things over which reasonable people can differ though. Regarding the original thread topic, I ordered Buffalo Bore Ammunition 44 Special 255 Grain Lead Keith-Type Semi-Wadcutter Gas Check for my Ruger GP 100 .44 Spl from...

I am a very strong 2nd Amendment supporter, concealed carry daily, have had quite a bit of defensive pistol training over the years, have a defense attorney who specializes in shooting defense cases on speed dial, and hope I never need to use my sidearm in a real self defense situation. I also...

I plead guilty for pushing this thread off the original topic and I apologize for that.
