    2025 Revolverfest AAR from the RevolverGuy

    Here is a great review pinned by Mike Wood the RevolverGuy. I didn’t take Mikes class as we got to pick 4 and the choices were hard. I attended classes by Justin Dyal, Caleb Giddings, Wayne Dobbs and Bruce Cartwright. https://revolverguy.com/revolverfest-2025-after-action-review/

    Be Careful Tomorrow Night!

    Why I usually have a revolver and OC on me or in reach even in my house. And not saying you Model 457 but I don’t deal drugs so that reduces my risk like 80%. We have been in a country club like subdivision for almost 5 years it’s an older in on the golf course and park and we got a slew of...

    Airman found dead at F.E. Warren was under investigation for M18 incident

    I don’t know the specifics of FE Warren case but nothing I have read specifically mentioned if he was in custody or not at the time of death. If in custody I would presume he hung himself (20 years in the Federal Orison system I have seen a lot of hangings, ODs and murders) There could be a...

    Wheelgun Wednesday: NEW Colt Revolvers with Hogue Over-molded Grips

    I’ll agree there’s nothing better looking than blued steel with wood brown stocks however hard to beat Hogue or Pachmyr for shootjng. The good news is VZ and others makes some great G10 stocks that have the walnut, coco bolo or other wood look but are GREAT to shoot so the best of both worlds...

    Ayoob: Why I Don’t Want a Custom 1911

    While I stated I can see both sides here’s the red flag in that statement for me and promoted my “It’s more about the driver and not what’s driven” comment. I have seen a lot of folks show up to IDPA matches and trainjng classes with high dollar guns like 1911’s and SFT/EDX 9’s from Wilson or...

    How do you cycle your carry ammo?

    Well I wouldn’t necessarily disagree however your metaphor is antiquated. With the adoption of CAC and I’m unit computers cops don’t use ink oens very much these days LOL JK

    Ayoob: Why I Don’t Want a Custom 1911

    I don’t disagree with Mr Ayoob but I also get both sides of the argument. On one hand if a custom 1911 saved my life not sure if I can put a price. However as a realist outside a competition and target shooting a Wilson Combat 1911 is not going to make enough of a difference iver my SA...

    SA competition idea.

    All about the numbers and there are other non SA specific venues like USPSA or IDPA. And while I love SA products they just don’t have the SKU numbers Glock did or domination to replicate the GSSF That said what could be a go and was a major Illinois match sponsored by SA was the Single Stack...

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    I know that’s why Glocl did it as well. Same with 357 Sig model 31,32 and 33’s

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    Here are a couple informative links on why FN went to cast. They had to make a bigger frame and slide as well as add lugs to accommodate the larger 40 cal round and the higher pressures There is also a great kink from Stephen Camp (RIP) High Powers and handguns he had one of the best pages...

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    I believe the issue with the S&W and some of the boutique rounds is the cylinder wall thickness not the frame a issue and certain ammo in the S&W was due to cause timing issues not blowing up a S&W. And that said it would take a steady diet but would happen. And being a lot of those rounds are...

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    The 6 shot N frame is the strongest 357 made. The RedHawks in 6 shot from isn’t bad as the GP 100 however “comma” Ruger has to make them thicker because they are injection cast. So while thicker than a comparable L frame S&W 586/686 they aren’t any stronger. Again not saying the Rugers are weak...

    Airman found dead at F.E. Warren was under investigation for M18 incident

    I was at Fe Warrens sister base in 91-93 at Malmstrom AGB Montana (Great Falls) we had a 1,200 man Security Forces Group with 4 squadrons. While FE has had their share of odd incidents leading to fatalities that’s just the missile field . We lost about one troop a month to vehicle accidents...

    Adding a revolver to the mix

    I ran rounds through the 66C and the Toro 327 both nice. I have an old (like really old with hammer mounted firing pin like pre lock S&W’s) Taurus 82 and it was a shooter. My brother had a Taurus 66 in the mid 1990’s that was a great shooter too. Taurus has a few bad years but the older and...

    CZ/Colt Canadian news.

    Oh I know I was just poking some humor. I have a couple Glocks but what they decide as to scrub models and introduce new isn’t any of my buisness if the new model works I might get one I’m just to the point I like good revolvers some SA 1911’s and my HK But seeing how many folks have invested...

    CZ/Colt Canadian news.

    I’m just asking for clarity. Everyone on YouTube said we had to be mad at Glock last week. Are we supposed to be mad at CZ’s and Colt Canada this week now? I can’t keep up!
