    Douglas SBD Dauntless: America’s Carrier Killer

    I had an SBD/Helldiver pilot (Silver Star winner) - Gill Cathey as a member of a church I attended years ago. He originally flew off the USS Lexington (VB-2?). I had the opportunity to speak at his funeral. I highlighted his service and the experience he would have had flying a mission. His...

    Something New/Something Different (10mm)

    22LR, 38/.357, 9mm, 223/556, 300AAC, 12 gauge.............. ....for years I told myself I did not, or would not add another caliber to the collection. Stocking up and maintaing the cache for those calibers was enough. That idea made it easy to avoiding the temptations of add .40, 45, 308...

    New firearm enthusiast

    The thing about the Sig P365 series (and other Sigs) is the modularity - factory and aftermarket parts/mods/accessories are almost endless in how you want to build or customize the P365 FCU (Fire Control Unit). Personally, I can just no longer do a stock factory black mass market firearm -...

    Let's see your AR setups...

    It just never ends....... (This was supposed to be my "poor man's MP5" - now its just not even close.) Picked up a 3 lug muzzle device several months ago in anticipation of Form 4 approvals. Suppressors (approved early Aug.) fit fine on the AP5s. However - on the Angstadt Arms AR9 - 6"...

    Holosun AEMS (Green) - new to me

    With my particular astigmatism, I find green works best for my eyes. May not be the case for everyone. (Also in AZ - when shooting outdoors - no issue with losing the green in lush woods foliage. I've read that is an issue with green and I've read it isn't an issue with green.)

    Shooting and Prescription Eyeglasses Question(s)

    Eye exam was last Thursday - glasses exam the following day. I asked about shooting - doc was not helpful. He wasn't an ass - but said something to the effect of shooting is complicated with sight and different distances - but did not offer any help. Last years exam, I brought a slide in...

    Shooting and Prescription Eyeglasses Question(s)

    As I have gone exclusively to dots now - and my focus is on the target vs front sight - I was thinking a regular single vision with astigmatism correction would be the way to go......but wanted to solicit perspective from the forum. Thanks.

    Shooting and Prescription Eyeglasses Question(s)

    That's funny - I picked these up from Walmart last week for $6 to try - I don't think they will do anything for the astigmatism, though -

    Shooting and Prescription Eyeglasses Question(s)

    I'm 59 with astigmatism in both eyes. (Also Type 1 diabetic - but no eye damage - just possible inconsistency in vision with fluctuating blood sugars). My distance vision is decent for my age, but the issue is mostly reading and the astigmatism. I have noticed deterioration over the last 7...

    Magazine Organization/storage (Handguns)

    They help me better utilize the limited safe space - I think I was able to get 2 more in. They aren't leaning against each other now, either. Just had to staple the loop material under the top shelf. Easy...

    Magazine Organization/Storage (ARs/etc.?)

    As a companion post to "Magazine Organization/Storage (Handguns) I was looking for an AR (or AK) type magazine carrier bag. Came across this one on Amazon and it was delivered today. Works prefect for my needs and was actually better than expected. (it does NOT have Molle straps) *holds 16...

    Magazine Organization/storage (Handguns)

    I'm not really "anal" in other aspects of my life - however I am with my firearms. I also think I need 8-10 magazines for every firearm I own. A few years ago I was looking for a way to store/organize my handgun magazines. I went with this way - Magazine pouches for each handgun. color...

    Sig P226 Legion SAO vs Staccato P (Sept 1, 2023)

    I got the Legion bag and coin with the P226. That is a mag pouch only - I get them off Amazon and use them for mag storage/organization. I try to color code by brand of firearm - Black = Sig; Tan = Walther; Green - everything else. I then order a custom text hook patch. Pouch -...
