    Handgun Recoil 101: How much recoil do handgun calibers produce?

    Yawn!!!! People worry to much about crunching numbers. 1 A 45 acp is more than a 9mm. 2 Magnum pistol rounds are more than 45 acp 3 split times are a competitive thing , .50 or so you will be just fine (ask LAPD and LAPD SWAT 4 if your gun comes with a 15 round mag instead of a 17 round...

    Do You Have the Right Flashlight Skills?

    While everyone can do whatever, the perception that one as a private citizen operates in complete and totally darkness to utilize a WML as someone performing Military or LE duties would is way way over emphasized. While my privious answer was half sarcastic Hal’s serious I am old enough to...

    Thoughts on 300 Black Out?

    It never awed me. I get the craze over Suppressors sells it and if that’s your thing it’s a good option for folks. Like having and carrying a revolver if you like it use it, if not there are other options!

    Kimber to discontinue Revolver production

    Bryan wouldn’t have announced it if it was not fact checked. Bryan is one of the guys behind the S&W/Lipseys UC J frame as well as the new 3” Night Guard wheelguns. He has his finger on the pulse of the industry since he is part of it.

    1970s VS 2026 thinking

    The problem with the old 3-3-3 is there is no trustworthy data. And it tends to get skewed by LE incidents where they mag dump. In reality while a robber has to generally be in arms reach with movement after the dance starts it can be at 5-7 or 10 yards by the end. While capacity seems...

    The last time I went to the movies was to see Oppenheimer. (As a general WW2 history buff and I spent 6 years in SAC both alert B52’s and a couple years at a Missile base) I planned on seeing Pressure and now this new D Day movie.

    Truck Guns

    The point is don’t hold anyone’s rifle. And running around with your own especially when the Calvary comes rushing in. it really doesn’t matter as it’s the same objective reasonableness for responders to send rounds your way!

    Truck Guns

    Reality A true truck gun is more for a farm ranch etc and dispatching car it’s and etc. Lots of theory and conjecture on active shooter response. Reality vary rare and running around with a rifle while 911 calls are coming in about a guy with a rife bad idea, And if you’re driving and somehow...

    SA-35 safety and other ?

    For me a Hi powers are a little big for Pocket Carry. As far as the ammo you should be fine with moderate use. I am not asking but for me I’d ask if is there a specific reason one would want that particular plus p plus? Most of it the juice isn’t worth the squeeze as you will sometimes get...

    Veterans' 2nd Amendment Protection Act

    The whole fear of MJ and guns is overblown. There is much much more issue with misuse of prescription narcotics that big Pharma has Drs push. That said does this bill address the issue of certain TBI/PTSD being automatically stripped of their 2A rights without due process? That is an issue...

    My EDC, Pepper Spray 😲

    Ok I tried to politely conversation but here why I responded to your original comment. You are dead wrong period. Yes at one time what you mentioned about effectiveness of OC it wasnt FOId, they have changed a lot since the 1970’s and everywhere that still use it (but most places LEOs refuse...

    My EDC, Pepper Spray 😲

    OC grenades if a private citizen can even get yjen would be extremely bad optics and outside of a crowd mob scenario not sure it’s the right tool. We had them and never used them. As far as OC spray that is found anywhere I would look at the manufacture of your agency’s OC. As Haggard pointed...

    My EDC, Pepper Spray 😲

    Respectfully your statements are 30 some years outdated or you have never worked any use of force stuff in the last 25 years if ever. Tasers are only effective 50% of the time, convicted peeps know how to break the wire by rolling. And is only good for one suspect. OC you can use for...
