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...
Hmm, the only issue with still using the form 4473 is that ATF has already been caught and it is verified through a digitizing of the forms they have collected, photographed, etc to the tune of almost a billion-gun transitions over the past decades. This was deemed illegal in 1984 by.... wait...
Hmm, I have the Meprolight 21 mounted on an IWI Tavor, cause that what was supposed to be on the Tavor, even though it is 300 BLK. That said, there is no batteries, it uses tritium for night ops. It appears that this one will address the issue of shade to bright that requires a polarized filter...
Me too as I always considered (other than sniping) use the iron sights like a real shooter... Then father-time caught up and this old dog had to learn new tricks with some optics costing as much as the host. Then I had to retrain my butt, but since I can't see the front-sight(s) anyway, the...
My gosh, been flying for well longer than I want to admit, but that one got by me and would make a great airshow plane (static) based on the last model is interesting. Looks like the business end of a bazooka or flying rocket pod and haven't seen one. But I did go to the Air Force Museum and...
We called it the "rock" and always had to stick the weak hand in the front beltloop during training and I wondered if having to use, the bad guy was going to wonder why I was sticking my left hand in my pants before he was dusted with the right...
Was the Wife was pissed knowing she was going to be alone that night? Having lost the rear window in a Patrol Car (assigned) that stuff is really a pain
Shooting a similar but not as rewarding challenge course on steel and the only place where one can exceed one shot per second. The pins would be harder due to size and yes it gets addictive over punching paper and then there is the desire to upgrade pistols for the task, I believe a commie plot...
Back in the 70's we were taught an improper technique for a Patrol Officer with the use of the baton, as it was better for a Correction Officer. It exposed the weapon and wasn't long before my fears were manifested with a punk hanging onto my service revolver, I did have the better grip. Point...
Also being from the Clan of the Cave Bear, I remember when shooting 50 yards with my weak hand using a good ole six-shooter in the blowing rain getting splinters from a 2x4. Then came them there Canadian/European 38 Short cartridges that were packed in 15 to a clip, I mean mag. Bought and...
A follow up on the Cam-Lok mounted version is after conversations with Griffin, they want 20-inch pounds for that particular mount of which I didn't know. They were outstanding, replaced the mount with the information included after asking how to keep it from occurring again. That said, shoots...
My hands are yuge, my finger won't fit in the... Naw, it is amazing even after a half century of firing handguns and even rifles I guess, I am still trying to know "exactly" where to put the booger hook... Hell, even find my thumb migrating to the opposite side of the stock during long range...
Great read and never really knew how they worked, but was always at awe with the Mortar after watching a firepower display at Ft "BRAGG" prior to Iraq 1.0. That was after watching all the other systems to include the F-15 with "retarded" bombs. The mortar display was just amazing watching the...
Nice article that touches on several points of interest... That said, took it up about 3 years ago with the thought how hard can it be. I mean I know a couple of armors that did it and they weren't the sharpest crayons in the box! Boy, was I wrong and even with a degree in aeronautics this...
