Yep and why Saint John Browning did what he did at the request of the Military, at the time he did it for the battlefield. That is "incapacity" over lethality... Since the projectile was controlled by rules of war, the big hardball was used so more of said energy, at sub-sonic speeds did its...

Dusted off an old Long Slide and took it to the Range and in front of the Challege Course, as the timer went off cleaned the five targets with the last a plate at 25 yards with iron sights with a clang in a bit over two seconds. The look on the young man's face a couple lanes down, priceless...

Hmm, I will have to ask the bowling pin, as I have seen what both can do to a human... The point was the 5.7x28mm is now what 9mm claimed to be to the .45acp. When I had to drop my .357 mag for the 9mm, I found the claims were not accurate except the mag capacity. I will concede ammo is...

Okay Johnny, I will have to correct you as the Marine Recon continued using up what 1911 parts that were left, with upgrades until 2022, so 111 years in service. The Navy's Frogmen, well Hell, I have no idea what they are using now, but they were still using .45 for the same reason the Marines...

But if I miss by an inch with a 9mm, it is a mile. But with the .45 (and if I use the HP), still a hit from close is good enough for grenades and flying ashtrays... Think it is that metric thing?

Got some stick time in the Whiskey Cobra, a beast as well... But believe it or not the Chinook is faster than it and the Apache too.

Lordy never heard of this program and what a beast, especially if you became the target of its affection... Can't imagine the rattle and shake as it did that by itself, much less with minis and Ma Deuces chattering.

So true as to shoot and scoot as it relates to repetition. Hard for me to find a range to do so and getting ready to just build one myself. Strange after having done it for years, being away from it gives the feeling of being more vulnerable and plain unprepared. I have an excellent range to...

Hmm... rather get hit on by either? However, if I have to choose...

Ah, 135 on a scooter and then I started thinking about armadillos... Yep that be fast, as anything I am in or on that can do over 2 bills has wings on it.

What, "how dare you..." Okay, I will have to settle for the 1064/5.5 = 193 hp per liter or 3.1 ponies per cubic inch... Never mind the newton or kilowatt ratings.

Then there is the new Corvette with ZR-1 and ZR-1X with 1064hp and 1250hp respectfully, with a 5.5-liter DOHC twin turbo flat plane crank which will deliver 670hp, normally aspirated. The ZR-1X runs in the 9's with all the comfort of a plush street car. But does get the extra ponies from one...

Like I said in 1986 when I first tried the 38 shor... I mean 9mm. I bought a S&W 659 and started shooting steel and from the tone realized, why you needed higher capacity. More than the wheel gun it was replacing after they took my .357 ammo away. Forty plus round load-out on the belt... That...

I remember picking up a 320 up and stating damn the trigger is nice, now I know why... Only Sig I owned was a 220 in .45 back in the day and do regret selling it back in 96... Had a 007 serial number and really regret, as I just didn't warm up to it... No Sigs in the Box.

I resemble that remark, then ending with 12+1 in .45 acp, with 24 more on the belt with a M-4 with 30 and 30 more in a dual mag set-up. Sad as I remember speed-loaders were a thing and secure holsters made their debut... Oh and let's forget the blackjack and alone with nearest back-up 30...

Won't be running any steel in mine as I only run steel in the Russian rifles. I do have steel I am trying to shoot up in .308 and 7.62x39 from both S&B and Norinco. Shows how little I shoot it. Just something about it makes me want to only shoot in chrome chambered Russian designs. I did run a...

Oh, your Boosters are ready and you can have mine, just in case the auto-pen pardon is deemed illegal... 👨‍🔬💉

I bought one a few months ago to go up against the Bride and her Gamo and found it to be a hoot, once you get the cocking down for an old gray. In the seated position rest the stock on your leg. That said, I found it almost as accurate as the Bride, but she is using a scope (gotta have a...

Although I have both calibers, back in the day when they took my .357 Magnum rounds away for .38 Special (appears woke was around in the 80's), decided six .38 rounds ain't enough. What, no one remember why .357 mag was created in the first place? Bought a S&W 659 with it's 15 rounds and found...
