Excuse my ignorance on this one. I picked up one of those laser sight rounds to check your sights. My understanding is that when it's in the gun if the barrel is good the laser dot should be exactly where the fixed iron sights are, even thou in my check it was about 4 inches, 10 yards away from...

I thought this an interesting story, and video of a nice 1911.

1 officer has passed... got the end of watch notice a few minutes ago. sad... RIP. Patrolman Andrew Duarte West York Borough Police Department, Pennsylvania End of Watch: Saturday, February 22, 2025 Patrolman Andrew Duarte was shot and killed while responding to reports of an active shooter...

Ya, actually I only carried it for a year or two at the most, maybe used it 5 times... once I went K9 I didn't carry it. Not going to use a taser near my dog, could be overkill or maybe hit the dog accidentally. We were required to carry at least one less lethal. Stick, pepper spray, or taser...

Yes, and even thou the pain is over afterwards, you still need a second or two to pull yourself together before getting up. Theres just a slight and short after effect even thou, they say it's instant on then off feeling. imo

The article on pepper spray got me thinking about sharing this taser video with you guys and gals. I mean my first experience with tear gas was in basic training in the Army. (1985) and then with pepper spray a few years later as a MP in the Army. But for the Taser, over 20 years ago my...

OK, I'm not reading all those EO... but I do want to know when I can bring my pistol braces out from hiding for sure, and when I can buy my next suppressor without the additional tax stamp money.... someone let me know when OK? Thx. ;)

Reading up on getting a red dot for my PDW, well really, I prefer green. I don't really know to much about them but I keep reading I need a wide view. Now I understand what they are saying but how wide, and what is considered a wide view? Also, while I'm here, I prefer green dots, I can see them...

I just recently got into competition shooting, 2 official matches under my belt with the Springfield Echelon, with a better trigger, comp, and a red dot, so open class... but when I was practicing, I realized that I shot better and faster with my Dan Wesson 1911 .45 with iron sights. (I'm old...

Well... I definitely like your train of thought, some really nice guns in that list... but the big question is "what do you want it for?" since you posted this "buying my first gun that I could potentially conceal carry as well." I'm not really sure those big guns are good for concealed carry...

Agreed... after seeing all those drone combat clips in Ukraine... we really should be taking this stuff more serious. And I hope our own military is really working on some new anti-drone combat tech. Because these drones can turn the tide in battle if used right. I bet Russian and China are. jmo

I'm wanting an article or comparison between the Hellcat Pro and this new compact Echelon. My primary concealed carry is a clean Hellcat Pro. And it's perfect but I also just bought a new full-size echelon and have been using for my introduction into competitive shooting. And I love it. But I...

Getting ready to leave for my first official competition shooting event... a little nervous. 10 yrs US Army, 20+ years Police... but just now at an early retirement age of 57 getting into competition shooting. Practiced last week and a 14-year-old girl smoked me. lol (I'm OK with that, just...

I've been all over this planet we call Earth, well maybe half of it, OK maybe that's all an exaggeration. A number of countries in Europe, the deserts, quite a few in Asia, and even an occasional trip to the North Sea area, and the African region. And I would agree... Americans know little to...

I got some details from a friend of mine over there. One Deputy had just finished a traffic stop on the side of the roadway. As he was getting ready to leave the motor stalled and lost all power. He called for the other 2 motor officers to come help him out. They arrived, and just after a lady...

Ya, it's a sad situation especially before the holidays. One of them killed is a member of my law enforcement motorcycle club, the Defenders. Multiple chapters were meeting at the south end of Lake O this Saturday for a multi-chapter lunch. He was supposed to be attending, now it won't be the...

As I mentioned in another thread, I'm looking into getting into competition shooting. 10 yrs of Army service, and 20+ years as a police officer. I can shoot pretty good, but never tried fast, and never tried competition shooting. Now that I'm retired and spend a lot more day's at the gun range...

Agreed... and thank you to all who have served this great nation.

Agreed... the 2-party system is broken; I want more parties. I always thought about creating a Constitution Party where the Constitution and the Bill of Rights guide the agenda. And we picked construction workers, teachers, plumbers, firefighters to run not just doctors, lawyers, and party...

Great day for the 2A and the 1A it protects... didn't think he would do it but it's a happy day for this gun owner.
