    Carry Calibers: .40 S&W Vs. .45 ACP Vs. 9mm

    The article did not impress me. :confused: What impresses me most is first hand reports and incident reports of actual gunfights.

    New windows

    Hey Keystone: I generally agree with much of what you discuss, but not this. Most sales people in the window business are independent contractors working on straight commission. The payoff for them is making the sale. Most window salespeople will close one out of ten on the first call. What you...

    New windows

    They won't be. You get what you pay for. Doing it right on replacing windows is tricky. First you have to decide what window you actually want and need and that is not easy because many sale personnel don't really know what they are talking about and some will lie about anything to make a sale...

    Dry run on my first Prime Rib on the smoker. Need to make some adjustments and changes.

    Like another respondent, I wouldn't recommend mesquite for prime rib. You might want to try either straight hickory or a mix of hickory and apple. You might also want to consider a "butcher paper wrap" for at least 1/2 of your cooking process to cut down on burnt and bitter.

    Dry run on my first Prime Rib on the smoker. Need to make some adjustments and changes.

    Did the Hellcat Kill the XD-S?

    I like both the Hellcat and the XDs. The XDs is .45 ACP, so they occupy separate places in my thinking. 🤔 I often carry both of them at the same time.:cool:

    Did the Hellcat Kill the XD-S?

    Have your wife try either a Boberg or a Bond Arms Bullpup. My wife also has issues with racking a slide and she loves hers. They are also very accurate and extremely well made.

    What influenced you to purchase your first Springfield product?

    My family used to buy parts from them and later bought M1As from them. The first gun I bought was their first XDs in .45 ACP as I was into custom 1911s before they were. That XDs is still my serious carry gun, but I have added a Hellcat as a backup.

    We Live in the New Age of Propaganda

    This should be a wake-up call if you don’t already know this… A recent poll was conducted by a national polling outfit. Names don't matter. They are all the same. This one was "YouGov”. Results to these questions asked of average people on the street. What percentage of the country is black...
