    First AR recommendations

    For me, I bought a generic M-4 style. DPMS was considered moderately inexpensive at the time, I knew nothing about AR’s. There is much to be said about just getting one, anything. At some point you’ll start developing an opinion as to what you like and dislike. The idea you can buy once cry once...

    Blue Origin launches an all-female celebrity crew with Katy Perry, Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez

    There’s a bunch of scientists, engineers, technicians, hell even commissary workers employed by these “bimbos”. Are there salaries wasted? Aviation in the early 20th century was a rich and famous lark. It took the wealth of European royalty to explore the new world. Now that kind of travel is...

    7mm PRC

    That’s a heck of a lot of bullet to just target shoot. Might want to look at 22 Creedmore,6 Creedmore, I won’t say it but you see where this is headed, and the 6 GT gets some high marks as well. Seeing impacts cannot be overstated. High BC bullets can out perform the big magnums at distance and...

    Review: SAINT Victor 5.56mm Pistol

    My introduction to Springfield Armory. Took about 1 round to start thinking SUPPRESSOR (yelling because I couldn’t hear myself). SBR is the best use of the 5.56, this was the easy button. I’m so happy I talked myself into upgraded Edge if only for the extra inches (yea, that’s what she said).

    Big guy looking for concealed carry options

    I am of Shrek proportions and recognize the issues. Your carry system is no place to save money. I’m not tactical in any way shape or form, Good gun leather has not let me down, fairly good has. Never oil or try to soften the belt or holster it’s not a ball glove. I’m OWB 95% of the time so...

    Gun and Knife carry

    It’s okay to add more pics? Single Seven with a Gerber Custom 325 both personal favorites, Mark III and an Al Mar Hawk, and finally Ruger SP-101 .327 Fed and a classic Buck.

    Longbow or Recurve?

    Something you don’t hear mentioned often is that recurves and longbows pretty much require frequent practice to maintain accuracy. The fire control computer needs constant recalibration. Outdoor range is just about necessary and a few acres to roam occasionally really help. Or I’m just fairly...

    Who Carries Old Guns?

    SIG-P239 40S&W 15 yrs at least. Recently retired, the incessant drone of mo 9mm mo betta, caught up to me. Well that and the extra 9#s of ordnance steel… 😂. I remember how small and svelte it was when I got it, like a HS sweetheart you never forget that first time.

    Anyone carry a Mil-Spec 1911? If so let’s talk about the pros and cons

    Yep, there’s carry and then there’s carrying. To and from the car is lots different than working all day on your feet. Ive been packing the 10mm full size getting used to it prior to hunting season. Ordered some professional grade suspenders this evening for field use. Kinda wanting to avoid...

    How Much Of A Role Does Avoiding Trouble Play In Your Overall Strategy?

    At this point 100% successful in deploying my brain first. Work can take me to some sketchy places, thinking like an Impala at the waterhole. Grandma was right when she said nothing good happens after 10:00.😁

    1911 operator 10mm NRA

    I love me some 10mm 1911. A big heavy framed gun tames the round very nicely. Check around and you’ll find ammo at 40S&W prices, locally it was 0.08 less for a 50round Box of S&B. Buy it cheap stack it deep. Not sure how long the reasonable stuff might last, hoping it’s a new normal.

    Smyth Busters: Is a PCC a Good Home Defense Gun?

    I just don’t think it gets much better than a SBR. Any center fire cartridge you choose should suffice. The longer radius sight picture, leads to better accuracy. Short barrel is just better in a home setting. Maybe that rifle gives you an intimidation advantage if the no goodnik turns tail all...

    Latest from The Sheriff

    Went through a renewal class with “that guy”. Felt sorry for those just getting their feet wet in carrying. I spent a good hour explaining things to my buddy who isn’t a gun person, with the admonition that there’s a lot to still learn.

    What Guns Do Your Kids Like?

    In a word .22’s. Anything center fire was too loud and muzzle blast wasn’t a hit either. Now they certainly liked the “gangsta” look of the SIG‘s and a few hero pics were always appreciated. My grandkid is ate full up with hunting, trapping, fishing, but. He has so little interest in “hunting...

    What influenced you to purchase your first Springfield product?

    Wife liked it. One of the old school XD 9 sub compacts. It was the loaded chamber indicator that did it for her, was happy about the grip safety as well. She’s the price conscious shopper in the house so the price was a motivator.Had to have been 10-12 years ago now. Recently picked up an Edge...
