    How Many Magazines Do You Keep On Hand Per Gun?

    My state (WA) has continued its descent into madness by passing a ban on the sale of "high capacity" magazines, which will go into effect in July. I never felt I needed too many. Was happy with three for my XDM and four 30's and two 20's for my Saint. But now? How could I have enough...

    New Man Here, but not new to Springfields

    Welcome. Good to have you here,

    Should this Officer be Fired?

    Never take such a news story at face value. We can't know whether it was a good shoot or not because we weren't there and just don't have all the facts. Judgement should be reserved, and the benefit of the doubt given. Any officer should be judged only by what they perceived and had reason to...

    Should the Schools Be Seeking Nationwide Media Attention for Arming Teachers?

    The elites are going to label you as backwards rednecks no matter what. So to heck with them. I don't think publicizing the program will further the Second Amendment, but the results of the program over time will. A lack of school shootings compared to other places and/or quickly neutralized...

    Lockdown Let’s You Keep Your Handgun Safe, Secure, And Available When You Need It The Most

    Kind of a cool gizmo, but I think I'll just keep the gun on me.

    NRA

    Please remember to consider the source of the accusations. These are allegations, not findings of fact. No trial has taken place, yet. The charges are being leveled by New York officials whose only ambition is to destroy the NRA, not protect it from mismanagement. I think it's a mistake to...

    NRA

    Well...if you'll wipe the froth from your mouth... You posted a meme, which you claimed is "100% truthful." It isn't. That's all I said about you. You have responded that I am an ignorant dupe. Understood. You also called me "dude." And a "mushroom." I take umbrage. But, in the name...

    What Features Do You Require In A Pocket Knife

    I've been shopping for knives the past few days. Bought two. The only must have for me is a pocket clip so it doesn't lie crosswise in the bottom of my pocket. I prefer the tip up orientation. Of course, I have to like the way it looks. I tend to like classic, simple lines without funky...

    NRA

    I said my bit about the NRA and wasn't going to engage with detractors, but this nonsense I will not let stand. I'm responding directly to your "100% truthful" meme, which is false. The 1930's, I don't know, and I don't care. This is now. The NRA opposed the GCA of 1968. The demands of...

    NRA

    I must agree it's not a great deal. At $45 a year that's 33 years worth! But you do get a cool bomber jacket.

    The Rifleman’s Rifle — SAINT 5.56mm

    I really like my Saint. It's my only AR, and I would not choose anything else, short of a fancy Wilson Combat model or something in the "Oh my God" price range. But even that would be pointless, because the Saint does everything I want at $900 out the door. I added a Sig Romeo 5 red dot, but...

    NRA

    OK. Good news, though I was never really afraid it would happen. But you never know. I know many people have abandoned the NRA and written it off over this scandal. I've been a life member of the NRA since the mid '90s. I will continue to be. I'm not willing to throw the organization...

    Biden Calls Law-Abiding Americans ‘The Resistance’

    It's rich for any democrat to complain about "resistance" when they declared themselves to be exactly that while a certain other person was President. What were those rules about writing obscenities, again? Does this violate them...

    Biden Pushes Gun Control During State of the Union: ‘You think the deer are wearing Kevlar vests?’

    I couldn't listen to it. If I hear him for 30 seconds I fly into a homicidal rage. But advocating gun control? I'm shocked.....just shocked!

    Help me identify this

    Sorry, but I don't think that's right. If you sight the gun on target, then independently lower the rear sight, you will have to tip the barrel down to bring the front sight back into sight alignment. So you will hit lower than before, right? I saw that Rangerman backs me up. Just making...

    Help me identify this

    Well, it's hard to tell from the picture, but I'd guess the circular dial moves the sight up and down, and the screw on the side moves the sight right and left. If you are hitting low, then adjust the rear sight upwards, I think.

    A Case For The Defensive Big-Bore Revolver

    I remember that! Pretty funny.

    Help me identify this

    I'm just guessing, but it looks like some custom work. A modified target sight rail with a fancy adjustable rear sight and heavy vent rib, probably to absorb recoil. Not an aftermarket item, but a (perhaps unique) custom modification.

    Social Camouflage: Blending In to Safely CCW

    I assumed everyone knew what I meant. Gun fanny packs usually have a certain look. They may have some velcro visible from a peel-away panel, or an obvious zipper around the circumference of the pack for access to the gun comparment. I don't often use one, since it's sort of like carrying a...

    Cleaning.....

    When I notice dust and lint building up around the trigger and hammer of my carry gun, I give it a wipe down and lube it up. I clean the barrel, etc. if I've shot more than a couple hundred rounds or so since the last time. Or maybe I'll just run a patch through to make sure there's some...
