Perhaps some slight milling of the sour or different hammer can do the trick. Not sure if Cylinder and Slide is still going but them and Novak use to do some awesome Hi Power Voodoo

If Ukraine happened right here, Having 30 plus years of Sig 22x series both agency and personal (and a ton of trigger time with my agencies 228) my 226 is probably my go to war sidearm. Rifle probably AR 15 shotgun again a few decades with Remington 870’s. Lethal less lethal and breaching...

By nibbles is the sour hitting ykur hand slightly? If so try a revolvwr aka crushed thumb grip on it. (Where both thumbs are locked down) That changes your hand (the meaty part) ever so slightly enouhh it eliminates hammer bite with most people.

I will say that Justin Opinion is one of my favorite gun review channels. His content is very well don and his camera skills are some of the best and reminds me of the quality of Mr Leatham work back in the day of the gun magazines .

The endearing quality of a 38 wadcutter (any) is the flat that cuts full 38 diameter homes in paper for that next scoring ring also cuts 38 cal homes in a sternum and gets 14-16” to the goods and doesn’t need speed or blast to donut. And is generally POA/POI on J frames. Even NYPD had...

They are an enthusiast tool, it alone will not improve your proficiency. Take a professional class by a reputable instructor THAT goes over proper mounting and best practices. It takes about 3,000 rounds to get close to where you are with irons (per Dave Spaulding whem I took his class and...

I run primarily Wilson and Chip McCormicks but Ed Brown, Les Bear and such will be fine. There are a lot of gun companies that use the same magazine manufacturers (like MecGar ACT etc) but no matter the make they should all fit if you have the right size. Obviously an officers mag won’t fit a...

While nuke 38 special 138 wadcutter is an excellent choice and was popular in snubs when I started (tail end of wheelgun days) and I know 2 Officers that dumped felons the 135 Gold Dot will expand and penetrate out of a S&W 642. I have the pics of the bullets a good friend dirt napped a felon...

The problem as Chuck Haggard pointed out with the vast array of YouTube ballistic gel testers they base their “conclusions” on a one and done or a one bare one with denim and some. To get a good baseline a group of 5 is better. Also some that somt do well in gel habe been really good stoppers...

If I were to add a replacement word it would be make “Deliberate “ shots. As Darryl Bolke says While I get a 6 stage with 28-32rounds per stage at a USPSA match Running half second splits to that .17 splits is gonna add up to a lot on the street .50 splits wins as LAPD SWAT and otherwise has...

As a LE and private citizen trainer that is nit stuck in an Agency echo chamber the biggest culprit is agencies and private citizens settle for good enough on range trips instead of practicing what they suck at. And the HUGE unrealistic large size targets with over sized or indirectly placed...

The go faster fairy is bad!!!!! Look no farther than the vast amount of LE shootings (and some private citizens) on camera. The ones with cyclic split times mag dump and hit nothing but a perps elbow. The ones that shoot 3-7 rounds at a rapid pace almost a cadence of 1/2-3/4 or a second drop...

With the poundage and travel distance in a DA revolver No, Tried in a striker fired (Glocks or etc) Yes In the DA revolver days it wasn’t uncommon for folk's to be trained to start their trigger pull on the draw and homsters even had the trigger and part of the trigger guard exposed. The...

The Trigger guard was Fritz Special pioneered by John Fitzgerald Side note I got to run some rounds out of a Fritz Spexial modified by Mr Fritz himself at Snub Revolver roundup (pre Revolverfest) a couple years ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FitzGerald_Special

Verbal judo is better off reserved to handle a spouse…….maybe

Different times I’m old enough to have experienced the days it wasn’t uncommon to take a crook to the ER to get his head stitched up from a whack with a maglight or baton before we took them to jail. While that wasn’t as dramatic as some of the Gunfight stories of the 1930’s it’s sure frowned...

Replace the recoil spring (my son bought a 4 1/4 TRP classic and had an issue replaced the spring and it cured it. And I would try Wilson or Chip McCormick mags while the Mecgar factory ones are ok and I trust them in other makes with 1911’s I generally only trust Wilson or McCormicks And as...

Yeah I am sure the war of the month club won’t be the same without their dear leader! And news crews won’t have to worry about him jumping in front of them for an interview 6 times a day

Funny I just had a conversation by text this morning with John Hearne on optics. I personally don’t get why the Red Dot crowd has such disdain for the iron sight crowd. It’s more about individual abilities. And peoples arguments on “better groups” if it cuts your group by 2 inches at 25...

The trigger pull weight and capacity argument always make me chuckle. While strikers are great guns funny how we could hit C and 10 rings at 50 yards with wheelguns back in the day. But consumers want easy to shoot guns with a short trigger stroke and reset and shorter learning curve As far...
