When I carry it is either a Ruger Speed Six .38 Spl in an IWB from AKJ Concealco Or a 9mm Springfield Ronin in a LOBO Leather pancake. Depends on the circumstances.

Those guys have big brass ones. The other type of storm chaser I don't have much use for; the ones that come around after a storm wanting to check your roof and siding for damage. We had light hail and thunderstorms a few days ago and the next day they were ringing the bell and beating on...

That is wonderful. I have nothing of my Paternal Grandfathers but I do have my Maternal Grandfathers pipe holder which I played with as a kid. I also have my Great Grandfathers hewing hatchet and draw knife. He was a carpenter, built barns and died in the late 1920's I did rehandle the hatchet.

My take on this. never take a knife to a gunfight; and never let someone with a knife get closer than 21 feet away

No one wins a knife fight. You might survive

A book on the 9mm. Seemed like it might be an interesting read.

I believe it was real. He did not advocate shooting at this distance. The dear was wounded and possibly getting away. He merely used what he had along with the experience of a lot of long range "plinking" and got lucky.

He didn't want to work in a pet store anyway. He wanted to be a Lumberjack.

Still waiting for my issue. It will get here though.

As I understand it; someone how it not allowed to own a firearm. Felons etc. could not be charged with having an unregistered firearm as they would be exempt from registration under the Fifth Amendment. Self incrimination and all that so it does not apply to them.

The heck with it. No Norma TMJ is sight, Contacting Norma with either a product question or an availability inquiry never gets a response. Instead I just ordered a supply of Sellier & Bellot 124 gr and some Federal .38 Spl . Checked multiple sources and ammoseek and went with one that had...

When I shot trap I loved Federal Paper shells. Nothing like the smell of a freshly fired paper shotshell.

Great input, all of you. I notice the Remington and WWB Comments. There was a time, a long time ago, that I liked Remington Ammo and Winchester firearms. I just never was a big Winchester (or Western) ammo guy. As for Remington, it just seemed to slowly go from being some of the best to ho...

I really liked the US assembled Norma 9mm Luger Total Metal Jacket (TMJ) 124 gr loading but after almost two months of waiting for more to get stocked I am about to give up. Also, Norma does not respond to questions technical or otherwise about their ammo, either thru their website or via...

I remember a conversation with a co-worker about carrying a firearm. He said he needed a gun in the rough bars he frequented. I received a deer in the headlights stare when I suggested he avoid going to those bars.

I am a big fan of the .41 Magnum. It is a great cartridge but it's hamstrung (or at least it was when I owned one) by a lack of variation in bullet weights and types. Then it was 175-180 grain or 210 grain and while the lighter Silvertips were a good load a heavier bullet - 225 - 230 grain -...

Welcome. I have seen the same thing on many forums; there is always someone who would rather go for a response rather than commenting is a friendly helpful manner. This forum is no better or worse in that regard. Stick around though and I believe you will find this a pretty friendly and...

I removed the 12# Wolff and put in an 11# Wolff. A subtle but definite difference in shooting. I like it with the 11 lb one.

Norma assembles a TMJ load here in the US; he box says assembled in USA with US and foreign components. https://normausa.com/product/range-and-training/9mm-luger-total-metal-jacket-tmj-124-gr-50-qty/

That is a good point. It shot the Norma and my Gold Dots pretty well (for me). I have not tried S&B yet.
