Howdy Buckaroos! It was a cool, drizzly Spring day here in Lake Country, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average. I'll take a little rain. Seems the last time I drove this way for a skills clinic there was snow everywhere. Yeah...

My dear friends and patriots, Yesterday was dinner/movie night for Mrs. BassCliff and I. Today I needed some "me" time. After doing my one chore for the day, filling the bird feeders, I high-tailed it over the the Lake Country facility of Fletcher Arms. It wasn't too busy today so I was able...

Yea, miss my Delta Elite also, so far I got the XDm Elite Compact and a S&W 610 revolver, just missed getting the Ronin 1911 last week but 2 hours…..lol

Hi guys and gals, I made a quick trip to the range a little earlier this week before the snow got here. Shoveling the driveway cuts into my range time. ;) I was happy to get lane #10 because that's my favorite lane. :ROFLMAO: I brought a small selection of ammo. I've made it a mission to...

Moreover, the 10mm Mid-Velocity loading was selected by the FBI months before they even solicted a 10mm pistol. The adoption of the S&W Model 1076 came nearly a year after they first selected the "Fed Lite" load. Ironically, the public announcement of the Model 1076's adoption was upstaged...

I bought a 9mm laser cartridge...when I spin the cartridge in the chamber the laser moves about 12" in a circle at 15'. I hope some laser cartridges are better than the POS I bought (it was only $20 though...get what you pay for).

I bought one of these about a week ago. They are 20% off with Holiday code- AMERICA I like it so far for dry fire practice, it gives a score history. I like the shot placement photos. Hopefully through the winter I can improve my shot groupings even if the score isn't centered on the 10 ring. I...

1911's are horrid on reliability! Mag sensitive....nuf said! Dis glocks, but reliable! Some hk is fugly as fugly can be! 1911's suck to high heaven! Big reason I have issues with those horrid pos is grip angle! Doesn't work for me. The 1st 1 I bought was in 45acp.........well I...

The .277 Fury or 6.8×51mm Common Cartridge, (designated as the .277 SIG Fury by the SAAMI) is a centerfire rimless bottlenecked rifle cartridge announced by SIG Sauer in late 2019. The SAAMI warns that MAP levels greater than 65,000 psi (448.2 MPa) may present an increased risk of unsafe...

Another note on bug out guns, as it applies to taking folks with you. If your bug out plan includes more than just you, those accompanying you need to also be armed and they need to be armed with a weapon firing the same cartridge as yours. Preferably the same exact rifle. Why would you...

Hi sorry for jumping in here with a different topic. I recently purchased a new S.A EMP in 9mm 3” I love the feel and appearance of the firearm but after taking it out to the rage and running 400-500 rounds I ran into a ton of failure to eject problems. At least 25-30 failures. I went ahead and...

Hi, Not at all! It costs nothing to dry fire practice, watch training videos on Youtube, manipulate your pistol (malfunction fixes, speed reloads, etc), and start getting your muscle memory ingrained for proper handling of your firearm. If you actually get to the range only once a month, or...

it is a marathon, not a sprint. work at your own pace. you'll be fine. there is plenty you can do that doesn't involve much $ or time away from work. learn some dry fire exercises (there are about a bazillion on the internet). pick up a laser training cartridge (Pink Rhino is $40 on amazon)...

Hi Mr. @Deathseed, Thanks Bob! That's right. I take up more than my share of bandwidth around here sharing my nooby fun. Look in the "Skills" section to see range reports from myself and others. I also have a collection of range reports on another forum. You'll know which range reports are...

Ah yes the double charge. When I was very young my father bought a MEC loader so we could shoot trap and skeet. I was always next to my father when loading. He was always meticulous and very detail oriented. Being 12 at the time I always wondered what a double load of powder would be like. being...

I started loading in in my teens the 60's with a MEC single stage loader. I was shooting a lot of trap and it was the only way I could afford the volume. Years later when my sons were old enough we started shooting trap and skeet. Loading for the three of us and a neighbor who shot with us, a...

i wish the results i get with the laser trainer translated fully to live fire. if it did i wouldn't have to go through so much ammo at the range! it is a good tool but no substitute for live fire. i use my "basement range" 3-4 times a week for about 10-15 minutes. i "shoot" from different...

nice set up. i have a similar set up in my basement. i use a "pink rhino" laser cartridge that i use in conjunction with a free app called "laser hit". it has helped me with trigger press and general gun handling. also, it is fun.

Hi, I'm not sure if I've ever shared this with you. I like practicing with m y G-Sight laser cartridge. The last time I practiced, my laser cartridge was getting lots of non-detected hits so I decided to install new batteries and the new back cap with a striker pad. For my hour and a half...

The .25-20 Winchester The .25-20 Winchester, or WCF (Winchester center fire), was developed around 1895 for the Winchester Model 1892 lever action rifle. It was based on necking down the .32-20 Winchester. In the early 20th century, it was a popular small game and varmit round, developing...
