    Do Pistol Bullet Grain Weights Really Matter?

    That's exactly my standard as well. For 9mm JHP's the Gold Dot 124 +P is what I carry. For .40 Gold Dot 155 or 165 and .45 either Gold Dot or HST 230 +P

    ford to make hybrid suv's rather than all electric

    I'm glad to see EV's falling on their face. I look at them as an extreme danger to our liberty as well as bad technology. When Obama was running the only thing on his platform that I agreed with was converting the national fleet over to CNG -once he was elected that wasn't ever brought up again...

    Fluid Transfer Monolithic Bullets: Next Gen Defensive Cartridge?

    Keep in mind there's a huge difference between the military fmj and modern expanding rifle rounds. Once you get into the velocity realms of 2000-2200fps you have more hydrostatic effects causing a larger permanent wound channel and that is compounded when you have controlled expansion HP and...

    Not a good look for VP pick

    Doesn't look particularly frightening. I'm going to find a large size image of the book over and print off some 8X11's to use at 25yds. Keith is a good little Comrade just like his Daddy.

    Wow, really?

    A more recent version of this. 5hp Briggs engine with a torque converter drive. Lots of fun and they would climb some amazing hills!

    Wow, really?

    Started riding on a 5hp MiniGoat. Dad later bought me a 125 Enduro and I secretly pooled money with a buddy for a 360 Husqvarna (held together with bailing wire) that I kept stored in a friends dirt bike shop he had in his garage. Dad thought I was taking damn good care of the Enduro when in...

    Dangerous Vintage Toys of The Good Old Days

    I guess I never realized I was in the presence of some posh type folks around here. Grandpa's answer to a cut finger or an embedded hook wound when out in a boat was to chew on a plug of Red Man and spit tobacco juice on it.:p

    Phil Donahue Passes. . .

    He was a true believer in things antithetical to my beliefs, but he was a very eloquent man. RIP

    Springfield Armory M1 Carbine

    Colorado as well and I'd buy an M1 that had a reputation for working well -in a heartbeat. I was given an Iver Johnson Enforcer pistol as a graduation present from college and it was a fun little gun when it ran.

    silencers (suppressors) for revolvers..???

    I would speculate that they set the cylinder gap to accommodate that, plus as the cylinder is turning it's coming up on an un-heated portion of the cylinder and they were using low pressure loads. As I mentioned, one of the things they mentioned was that it was only good for 5 shots before...

    silencers (suppressors) for revolvers..???

    I recollect an article from the 1980's that discussed a government agency having revolvers that were fit with a silencer. Supposedly the barrel/cylinder gap was next to nothing and they were only good for one cylinder of ammo before cleaning. There was also the Vietnam era QSPR cartridge in the...

    Mr Gun flees with docs

    Perhaps, he was just... ahem... "trolling" the agents? Gosh I crack myself up sometimes! 🤭

    Nespresso Capsule System

    It's definitely worth trying one before you buy. My order in a coffee shop is typically an extra-large, dark roast with an add shot of espresso and a half inch of steamed half & half. The Nespresso has a foamy head that eliminates the need for half & half depending on the pods you buy. I'm...

    Nespresso Capsule System

    I went out to visit my son and they have a Nespresso. It's on my list of things to buy when my Keurig stops working. I would concur that the coffee tastes better.

    Show off your Every Day Carry!

    The Guyabera shirts are still a thing in Vegas with Metro detectives and D.A. investigators. It just works!

    Carry Gun Rotation: Good or Bad?

    Personally, I would stay within guns having the same manual of arms i.e. striker fired guns, single action guns, double action guns. When I worked for a Glock agency, my 1911's sat virtually unused, and when I did shoot them I'd run a box of ammo through the Glock after shooting the single...

    Dabbs: My Time in the U.S. Army Rotary-Wing Flight School

    Great article! I was honored to have been able to pin my Son's wings on at Ft. Rucker. He was 3rd in his class and got his pick of birds and went with the Apache. He did 6 deployments 3 on the ground in infantry and 3 flying in Afghanistan. He also was picked for a TDY to HI, where they were...

    Not a good look for VP pick

    He and Kammi have already worked together before. He let the rioters riot and she solicited funds for the organization to bail them out if arrested. :unsure:

    car from the movies

    I would take the McQ Trans Am without doubt. I had a 1970 Esprit and Formula as well as a 70 Gran Prix. Never could get a T/A as the timing wasn't right when I located one. Love the old Pontiacs.
