    Hochul Vows to Block Trump’s Pro-2A ATF Reforms

    People vote for their candidates based on false promises. It’s simple. Can’t really trust any of them, and you know they are lying when their lips are moving. Lots of folks quickly forgot the bump-stock ban that was eventually overturned.

    Magnum in the Middle: Why the .41 Magnum Should Be More Popular

    Earlier this year I picked up a basically NIB three screw 41, blued, 4 5/8ths barrel with all original paperwork, at a price I just could not ignore. I say, you have more fun when you get it done with a 41! I also have 2 RedHawks that are sequential serial numbered in 41 Magnum. They are the...

    Now that’s a configuration that makes sense. Thanks for sharing.

    Hornady's 22 Creedmoor Ultimate Predator Cartridge

    Twist any of them tight enough and they all sling heavy for caliber bullets to a degree it’s nearly impossible to differentiate.

    What is your absolute favorite handgun and caliber.

    This is like asking which of your children or grandchildren are your favorite. The answer will vary. I guess today, for me, 45 Colt in a modern (not SAA clone) single action configuration.

    Can SA 1911's be modified to fire .45 Super?

    Yes, they can. I once had a SA Loaded model (parkerized) that I added a FL guide rod (Wilson), 28lb Wolff recoil spring, X-tra power firing pin spring (came with recoil spring), Wilson Combat flat bottom firing pin stop and a 25lb Wolff hammer spring. At that time I was shooting a hard cast...

    Receivership?

    The typical playbook of PE is to bring on a lot of debt in the so-called restructuring of the business in the hopes it will see profitability later. A lot of such businesses that get "vampired" by PE firms eventually go belly-up.

    Handguns for Bear Defense: Will Any of Them Stop the Threat?

    (checks notes) Yeah, a hit from either a 10 or a 45 (anything) is going to hurt and leave a mark. I prefer a larger frontal area, and .451 bullets have more frontal area than either 10mm or .44 mag. I have loaded 275 grain bullets in .45 ACP, and 45 Super, at usable velocities, but tend to...

    New Digital Surveillance Tools Threaten Gun Owner Privacy

    I once read (somewhere) that the real goal of terrorism is to change the way you live your life ... to not be completely free. Surveillance has certainly become the new normal since 9/11/2001.

    Why You Need a Survival Axe

    Good article and food for thought. I like to throw a saw in my pack too. Both have their uses and place, but it's a lot more difficult to hurt yourself with a saw than it is an axe.

    Red dot vs. Green dot

    I find red to be hard to pick up on a sunny, cloudless day. I want to try green.

    AG Blanche Launches New Process to Restore Federal Firearm Rights

    The catch in these cases is “eligible individuals,” and all too often that’s at the discretion of the DOJ.

    Beyond The Basics Of EDC

    Crossdraw would make more sense. And I’m visualizing how off hand twist draw would work too.

    How Much Ammo Should I Carry?

    I am picturing a back pack, correct?

    Beyond The Basics Of EDC

    I would think that practice with the non dominant hand and injured hand drills would also be good. Does anyone carry Calvary style anymore? Seems that method allows either hand to access the handgun (butt forward). Recognize that’s problematic for concealed carry.

    Flock cameras at gun ranges

    Doubtful the public ever will. Great question! Either way, it smacks of a violation of the 4th. And that's why, even as a former prosecutor and currently practicing criminal defense lawyer, in general, I distrust law enforcement today. It wasn't like this twenty years ago.

    The Realities Of Long-Range Hunting

    And yet, rifle and ammunition makers continue to market in a fashion that makes the practice of "long range" shooting seem so easy....it fosters that unethical and irresponsible conduct.
