    Philadelphia Becomes the Latest City to Sue Glock

    I get it , that " hundreds" is a figure of speech. But sure , there are a Large Plethora of handguns that would be * at least reasonably suitable for Duty Use * . But for Departments , that's just part of it . A big part is the service & support from the Mfg / authorized LE Distributors...

    Truck tires

    That's the one that l absolutely Hate ! Once upon a time , we bought a used XJ that had almost new Michelins . I blanched at the idea of throwing away almost new $$ tires , but the absolute total lack of traction made it a necessity. We were both out to the Biggfoot Outpost #1 in the...

    Diagnosing Inaccuracies: Is It You or Your Gun?

    25 yards is the traditional standard for * Gun & Ammunition Testing * ( Long historical background, but accept as given for now . ) Testing for pure accuracy of the gun / ammo is done from some flavor of a Rest , from a bench , or sometimes two hand braced . The concept is to eliminate/...

    Diagnosing Inaccuracies: Is It You or Your Gun?

    Ok , to give yourself some realistic -ish yardstick, try using the T&Q ( Training & Qualification) scoring system on that B-27 ( l looked it up , what Texas used ) . 10 ring , 9 ring , and 8 ring count as " 5 points " , 7 ring as 4 points , outside 7 ring count as 3 points . (...

    Ayoob: Was the 10mm Destined to Fail?

    Brooks Brothers was slightly tongue in cheek. But there was pushback about the concealability for casual clothes or off duty carry . The FBI issue 10mm ammo of 180gr @ 950-ish fps was essentially the same as typical 180gr .40S&W duty loads , but the subsequent G22 was somewhat smaller , and...

    Ayoob: Was the 10mm Destined to Fail?

    Actually , IF the comparison was .357 Silvertip 145 from 3 inch K Frame vs M1076 w/ FBI spec 10mm , recoil would have. Been non issue . But alas , the standard issue load was .38 +P , and actual .357 was case by case supervisor approval , for specific operations. At Least as much as recoil ...

    US Forces sink first aircraft carrier since WW2

    I was taken aback reading this , because l didn't think lran Had an Aircraft Carrier . They Don't / Didn't. A "Drone Carrier" is 1/ 10 the size of a real Aircraft Carrier .

    Nation's Oldest Gun Club Turns 150

    In my corner of the world , pretty much all the landed Gun Clubs were founded in the 1939 - 1947 window . Just guessing, but with high degree of certainty; Before that , few people felt need for formal club instead of shooting in the back 40 . But After the post WWII Boom it wasn't as...

    email from Glock

    Back at Post #29 – In '13 got the G29 , with the concept that l could run extended Bbl , and magazine sleeve with the G29 , but l couldn't shrink a G20 . The only net loss was a bit of sight radius. Fast foreward a decade plus , and very ugly Gen 4 G22 , and a Gen 3 G27 that speaks...

    How is your 1911 set up?

    " Stock " 1911 is meaningless term anymore. A " GI Configuration " is a niche thing , primarily for Retro or historical interests. " Stock " meaning as that particular model came from factory, is still highly variable . I Can comment on what l Prefer. Flat , Long , " anti hand...

    The Lost Art? How to Read a Map

    NIB 1974 2nd Gen Colt SAA .45.

    That's certainly a Choice . In general, l lean to at least once or twice shooting sessions with most things . But this one , would be one of the exceptions. One of my 20/ 20 hindsight kick myself things was " hell no , l ain't gonna spend no $700 on no Shooter Grade later 1st Gen SAA " ...

    1911 DS Holster expedition

    Did a Google search ( for images ) , and it would seem the DeSantis Invader is a fairly conventional hybrid IWB , with two attachment points , and rides with a "medium " amount of foreward tilt ? If that's close , then dozens of the Usual Suspects have something very similar for either IWB...
