    How do you cycle your carry ammo?

    I had an email from Underwood ammo in the inbox this morning, titled, "The Most Overlooked Ammo Mistake (and how to fix it)." It read, It's not your caliber. It's what you're doing with it. The three overlooked factors: 1. Consistency (are you training with what you actually carry?) 2...

    The .36 Caliber Pistol – A Popular Choice With Early Gunfighters

    Thanks for sharing ... I do enjoy the history lessons! I believe Porter Rockwell is rumored to have carried a Colt 1851 in .36 caliber.

    Gunsmith schools.

    For those of us that think it can't happen here.

    Elections have consequences, even the local ones.

    It’s been a while since I looked, but the last time I did all the schools were heavy on ARs and pistols, not precision rifles (except PRS) and revolvers. Gotta keep up with demand, as that drives course offerings.

    Trump Announces Military Action at Strait of Hormuz

    Just my opinion, but the only people with memories shorter than voters are college football fans. We likely wouldn’t be in this mess but for Trump’s cancellation of the Iran nuclear deal in 2018 and utter and complete failure in putting something other than sanctions in place. Then Trump kills...

    Thanks. I’ll reach out to Shockwave, maybe email them.

    Good stuff. Thanks for sharing. I consider myself to be mechanically inclined at a basic level but I’ve never tinkered with my revolvers. I’d sure like to take a class specific to revolvers.

    OTHER guns

    I keep a Winchester 1300 Defender by the bedside for things that go bump in the night. Any idea where I can find a Birdshead for it? Or will someone’s Birdshead grip work, like a Mossberg? I really don’t know. I am not crazy about the pistol grip at all. Thanks!

    For you 1911 guys how many mags do you carry?

    Your point is well taken. My point I was trying to make - and continue to believe - is that it is irrelevant to the civilian to carry multiple magazines as a civilian is not going to engage in a shoot-out but only seek to disengage and get out of a fight as quickly as possible and defend.

    For you 1911 guys how many mags do you carry?

    I'm surprised you left out a dozen or more incidents like Luby's cafeteria shooting in Texas or the MGM shooting in Vegas in 2017 by a motivated sniper in a high-rise. At any rate ...... What's wrong with utilizing statistics in deconstructing and constructing arguments? It is risk mitigation...

    Exactly.

    For you 1911 guys how many mags do you carry?

    Unless you are active law enforcement, North Hollywood is a terrible example for a civilian. You are statistically more likely to be killed in a car wreck than a violent encounter.

    For those of us that think it can't happen here.

    Its mind boggling if you really stop and think about the border .... there just is no way to really close it, best you can do is monitor it with drones 24-7, I guess. Lots and lots of desolate areas where bad actors can sneak across.

    Illinois Bill Wants to Force Glock to Change Design, Even Though They've Done Nothing Wrong

    I think this would make a great bumper sticker. On a more serious note, there is a price, and in broad terms it's called a jury verdict, and it applies to both criminal matters and civil matters.

    Ruger vs Beretta: What’s Really Going On Behind the Takeover Drama?

    Well, that is the philosophy of capitalism.....money and investment, and at least in theory the poor products die and the better products survive. Both brands serve a different market share ... Ruger makes ARs, revolvers and O/U shotguns....Beretta makes semi-automatic shotguns and pistols...

    Ruger vs Beretta: What’s Really Going On Behind the Takeover Drama?

    If anything, the customer service of Beretta is not any better than Ruger, but it's not as bad as a lot of others. Let's not all get doom and gloom on the prospect that this happens yet. Remember that Bill Ruger was in favor of the 94 AW ban and didn't want to sell magazines to law-abiding...

    Ruger vs Beretta: What’s Really Going On Behind the Takeover Drama?

    Market share? Lots of folks don't want to buy Beretta for a myriad of reasons but won't hesitate to buy a Ruger.
