    Pocket Carry with the Hellcat .380

    Nice article and although I use a different conceal pocket, I like because i am carrying... That said with jeans I just ensure the bottom of the holster engages within the back of the pocket to leave it behind...

    M21 Sniper Rifle — A Short History

    Got attached to M-14 as it issued for security details while in the Navy. Bought the civilian model many moons ago and dropped onto an Arch Angel stock system, but it has the standard barrel. Eyeballing one in Creedmoor for upgrading and return the 308 back to standard format as it is really a...

    Vietnam’s Forgotten Gunship: The ACH-47A Chinook

    And to think it leaked more hydraulic fluid than the 58 held... If it was a OH-58 A or C, yeah, pretty much everything leaves ya, lol. But have some time in the 206 A/B/C/ L1/L3/L4, something about the old school and the way they fly. The OH-58D and 407, a bit faster, but drank the fuel.

    Ayoob: Why I Don’t Want a Custom 1911

    Yeah, that darn Tisa 1911 in nickel with a 9mm and a .38 Super barrel thrown in for around 400- 450 clams (on sale) keeps haunting me...

    Ayoob: Why I Don’t Want a Custom 1911

    Ah never took the knee to the Austrian Plastic Fantastic and still don't own one... Shot em and can say they shoot just fine and right out of the box. In my case as everyone gave up their .357 magnum wheel guns, for the 9mm S&W 659 (Glocks were still a naw factor, because of the plastic at...

    Big Green Is Back: The Story Behind Remington Ammo

    Great news and I do find the UMC Remington vs Remington Range and Target do vary in accuracy, in 124 gr 9mm anyway... The latter is better in the Beretta Performance.

    Ayoob: Is It Time to Retire the 1911?

    I reassemble that remark... But was fortunate enough to have replaced my six-shooter with one of them newfangled semi-autos in DA/SA in the mid 80's. Yeah, it is fun with the occasionally lighting up all the targets in seconds in the big boy's caliber, to see you have shocked the...

    Ayoob: Is It Time to Retire the 1911?

    The 1911 is like some kind of addiction and used to recover from the plastic in the environment right now, even in your blood... Gotta have metal be it carbon or stainless just some kind of steel, must be an iron thing. Oh, I like the Ruger .44 Mag and the only .44 I have ever shot. Once was...

    Ayoob: Is It Time to Retire the 1911?

    Hmm had a 220 back in 1996 and never really warmed up to it and ended with the H&K USP, in God's caliber of course... As for a safety? Had a de-cocker, but no safety other than my finger and DA first...

    Were Battleships Just Big Targets?

    Believe the Sheffield was a missile frigate or destroyer if you like... But many others could be used as examples.

    Were Battleships Just Big Targets?

    Don't know if I totally agree the battleship is dead. As with the B-52 or BUFF Big Ugly Fat Fellow (last word replaceable) will still be picking up the B-2 Pilots when they are dropped off at Boneyard in AZ. Has the mission changed, yes and they are a bullet magnet, I would argue with the...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Not in the Free State of Florida you won't, as the fear of the Dealer and the ATF is still real... Damn check every time regardless to include even being the PoPo. And if he doesn't have a "Florida" conceal carry, three days for you, even with a Federal Carry... What was that about "Shall...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Open carry in urban settings doesn't set well with me as too many clowns will strap one on for the drama, as it only takes a couple idiots to screw up the program. That said, "Shall not infringe" is pretty clear as the battle for your rights continues...

    Ayoob’s Top 1911 Hacks

    First exposure to the .45 ACP was in bootcamp as we had to take them apart first, then reassemble and then onto the range where I qualified expert with the old rattling 1911. Went on to use .45 ACP in LE as well, the round was impressive for auto-pistols compared to the, wait for it 9mm. The...

    Ayoob: 1911 — Outdated Hype and Nostalgia?

    Learned in life the bigger picture can get obscured by the trees directly in front of you. Yea that one was corny and on a day the ability to debate that big picture has been seriously put into jeopardy with great prejudice. RIP Charlie K we miss you already...
