    Reality Check: Red Dot Sights

    Suppressor height sights are the key. You have spent your whole life acquiring iron sights, and with the dot at the top of the front sight the handoff is natural. Guys that hate dots and say they have to hunt the dot are missing this crucial step. I went to a dot in the 90's when I started to...

    SIG SAUER Launches the SIG516 G3

    Yes, with the stock folded and a twenty round mag, it can fit into a tennis racquet case. So there is that....

    SIG SAUER Launches the SIG516 G3

    I am a big fan of the SIG 556R in 7.62 X 39 that takes AK mags. The first ones had indigestion with steel case ammo, but they fixed that and made what I consider the thinking mans AK. It is accurate and reliable. I am mostly a handgun guy, but figured everyone needs a 7.62 x 39 rifle. Wish I...

    What are you doing right now??

    I dig that brass bead with serrations! Great front sight!

    Joined the NRA

    I have often been at odds with the NRA over the years, but they are the one organization over the years that have kept the lawmakers in line with the Founding Fathers. We came within a whisker of losing handguns in the Gun Control Act of 1968. I am an Endowment Member, but every gun owner needs...

    Stainless Garrison Locked Up

    I am a grease guy. It stays put and does not transfer to clothing as easily. I had used Wilson Combat grease for ages because I liked the syringe applicator. Lots of other greases use that as well now. Mil-Com got rave reviews from veteran friends that fought in the sandbox, and I have been...

    "Is it (the Staccato) worth the money?"

    Words matter! Weird Al has it right!

    NYSE RGR, SWBI

    I admit I don't try to time the market or pick winners and losers. ETF (Exchange Traded Funds) have replaced the money market funds of the 80's and just sit back for the long ride.

    EDC Carry Positions - The Pros and Cons

    When I had a suit and tie job I sat in an office all day. And would have been fired if I had a firearm. So it was a Colt Cobra in an ankle rig for me. They are quite fast to draw from if seated, as you can bring your leg up to meet your hand. But outside of sitting ankle rigs are dead last for...

    S&W 432 Ultimate Carry Ti Review: No Thanks!

    I had a Redhawk years ago...5.5 inch BBL was an easy carry hunting sidearm. But since my bear hunting days are behind me and a friend and his son have their bear hunting days before them it went to them. Heavier than a S&W 29, but stronger too.

    S&W 432 Ultimate Carry Ti Review: No Thanks!

    At a towering five foot five inches (Towering? Really?) that GP 100 would be a belt gun for me, but a seven shot .357 does have some appeal. A buddy got one of the 44 Special GP100's and it is crazy accurate. Well, like about every GP 100 I have ever been around.

    Nice! That Dart GTS was a real sleeper! Nobody expected a hot V8 in a Dart. Super cool.

    Only in Pennsylvania.......

    A guy that stupid was probably not cleaning his gun. He was probably posing for selfies of him being a "tough guy" for his Instagram account and his dog, the brains of the operation obviously, had had enough of that nonsense.

    S&W 432 Ultimate Carry Ti Review: No Thanks!

    This really saddens me. They FINALLY got somebody in charge to address the poor sights that have plagued the J-Frame since inception, and I am afraid to buy one. I bought a Model 60-15 Pro Series because it had the features I wanted...three inch barrel and good sights. But for pocket carry, I...

    Dot vs Circle Dot

    Trijicon RMR on a Glock since the 90's. Back when you had to have a slide milled or a custom slide, as regular readers of this forum know. Perfectly happy with the set up. Then one of my friends showed up at the range with a green circle dot and suddenly all my Red Dots and EoTech sights were...

    Happy Veterans Day!

    When I was a working man, I put the name of every veteran that worked for me in a hat. I then had a vet draw a name from the hat and we were going to lunch that day on me, anywhere they wanted...with pay! They all deserved to go and I told them so.

    I'M "BORED" WITH FIREARMS

    I was looking over your pictured collection and I see the answer...that Ruger Heavy BBL Target is threaded. Get a suppressor. It is a whole new dimension of fun, and it makes you feel like James Bond to boot! Sounds like just the thing you need to me!

    Vortex Counterfeit red dots!

    Only buy ANY optic from a legit dealer. Leupold fakes are all over the interwebs. But I have seen fakes from just about every mid to high end brand I can recall.

    I'M "BORED" WITH FIREARMS

    Oh, yeah, of course a Flame Thrower. I figured you already have one. I could not one up my friends with a fancy BBQ gun until I got a proper BBQ gun.
