    AKM vs. AK-47: What’s the Difference?

    Awesome article and I never knew any of this as I do have a Hungary build semi-auto version on the vault. I have to say it has one of the best triggers of the rifles and on par with some I paid ten times as much. Go figure and on a stamped weapon and I don't play with it enough, based on the...

    My Unpopular Opinion: Don’t Customize Your Gun

    I resemble that remark... But removed the Irons, hated to but the back didn't fit and I haven't warmed up to the 45 degree mounts, just too much for this old fart. The ACSS awesome.

    My Unpopular Opinion: Don’t Customize Your Gun

    Hmm, 1st Amendment, well I have seen a few appeals based on implied racism, even when there was none. But the media had a field day and couple careers falsely tarnished regardless, as they have no respect. Now with the easy ability of the State to stack a Jury based on legal and illegally...

    My Unpopular Opinion: Don’t Customize Your Gun

    I have found on the mounting of a sling of which all the weapons have and I do prefer two point over single point. The stock mounting is easy, the other side from my face. The forward mounts vary based on where my hand falls and if there is a device like a forward grip or stop. The good thing...

    My Unpopular Opinion: Don’t Customize Your Gun

    Hmm, a bit of a mixed bag of mods or no mods, to keep the original format the gun came in. Went with a IWI Tavor and had to use the Mepro red dot because it too is Israel and weapon accurate. With the Saint Victor, LPVO, nothing more. The WWI and WWII and Soviet SKS, original all the way, no...

    Why People Hate the 1911 (and Why They’re Wrong)

    I have one that holds 15 in the Mag and 1 in the pipe and I don't think I can hide it on my skinny butt, anywhere... Maybe a skinny 1911 might work.

    Why People Hate the 1911 (and Why They’re Wrong)

    Go look at my lawn mower LOL... Well maybe not so funny as I walk by the vehicles to do so and the workbench and tool box. Yeah I have OCD, now I know owning a 1911 is a sure sign... I do, but it is a 1916 version and lives a live a life of leisure and damn it is a pretty thing sitting next to...

    WWII’s Most Bizarre Battle? Blimp vs. U-Boat

    Yeah, been there got the t-shirt, but the next one was far better and there was the next plane faster, higher and she arranged the purchase on credit cards no less. That was when you got promos weekly for transferring balances at 0% for six months. Just don't forget or 22% it was and is paid...

    WWII’s Most Bizarre Battle? Blimp vs. U-Boat

    Damn, I served in the Navy as an Airman and never heard anything about this... Would make a great movie as it touches all the points from ship of the air and sea with restricted speeds in a duel with all the aftermath.

    Best Bullet Weight for 1 in 7 Twist Rate?

    Great read and answered some of questions about why a 20" SS 1-7 twist loves to fire 55 grain BTHP over heavier rounds. I can custom load a 68 gr that will do well at 200 yards, but it doesn't like Factory 75 grain Match Rounds or others as much as the 55 grain. I actually zero with the 55...

    Do You Think the 1911 Is the Worst Gun for Cops?

    At least yours knows what the hammer is... Mine has to be armed with "pull trigger go bang", no safety involved. Oh she can shoot as she brought home her first target after CC training and made some comment about to don't forget it Bucko. As I stated earlier, the 1911 is a great platform and...

    Do You Think the 1911 Is the Worst Gun for Cops?

    Are there any Constitutional Scholars available within the education system left? I totally agree with your premise, especially since certain Acts having been passed in the past.

    Do You Think the 1911 Is the Worst Gun for Cops?

    Totally disagree with the logic on the allowance of a single action, cocked and locked 1911 for multiple reasons for duty carry. First, although I carried a .45 auto for over 36 years from military through a career in LE, it isn't the caliber. It is the system that a Dept or Agency adopts has...

    Flying the Bell AH-1 Cobra Gunship

    Most of my sling-wing time was in the Bell OH-58A+ and Long Ranger L-1,L-3+,and L-4 as the Company I was with, took delivery of the last L-4's built. Although having rode in a couple UH-1's, one of my fondest memory was a chance to fly the Whiskey Model Cobra used by the Marines prior to the...

    A Retired LEO’s Special Mil-Spec 1911

    Having also retired from a mid-sized agency at the rank of Major, the 1911 and was my retirement gift as well. There was experience with them, through the military before LE. Along with the M-14 for security details (yes I have the Springfield M1A). Full auto was a sight with a buck sixty...

    How to Clean an AR-15 Magazine

    I have on occasions given a light coat of a dry lubricant like Hornady One Shot or a Teflon based lub. As both go on like a liquid and after drying leave a dry coating of lubricant that won't attract dirt. The Hornady One Shot is used in my .22lr actions and leaves no visible film on the...

    Back-Up Guns for Cops: What Do They Use?

    Holsters are whole different subject as I never lost one but... Started out in 1980 with a low swivel for comfort and that didn't last long as I went to a high and tight security Tex Schumaker for a 6" .357 Mag. A couple tussles and seeing one separate at the swivel, cured that. Don't have a...
