thanks, very good review, however i am using federal premium hydra shock and or hst for my carry ammo in all calibers, have you had a chance to do a comparison between the covertx and the premium federal rounds, hydra shock and hst. i am continually checking gel test for expansion and...

very good article to stop the myth, as a retired leo i wore the soft body armor for years, and this is the reason the soft body armor came with plates and "pockets" for the plates to fit in, but the plates were very uncomfortable to wear with the soft armor. even when you were hit with a bullet...

I understand that, I am the same after 25 years in law enforcement, so many people walk around with their head in the sand, up their a**, or somewhere and have no clue to anything going on around them and then wonder why that happened to them.

That's true, I am a retired "street cop", and just have the habit to look and access situations. I am going to download this book i am sure it has good ideas, you can always teach an old dog new tricks

after shooting all my life and being retired leo, shooting, practice and qualification has been a big thing. however all was done with irons, i have purchased a couple red dots recently and installed them on a couple of pistols, not my edc stuff as i am having problems making the transition from...

i cant fit a pistol in my pocket, theres not enough pocket, my preference for deep concealed carry is iwb with a sticky holster. the sticky holsters work very well holding your weapon where it needs to be

I have to confess, as a retired leo I am a glock guy, and have and still carry a glock 40s&w (g27) a lot of the time. However several years ago I bought my first hellcat and love it, i started carrying it a lot and love it. I liked it so much I bought another the osp version and added a red dot...

Call it what you want but springfield is super #1 in their development of the hellcats and echelons

The sigs can't hold a candle to the hellcats

Bought the hellcat 380 as soon as they came in stock at gun stores a while back, it's a great addition to the 9mm hellcats I have.

For sure a 30sc hellcat would be great

The xd's are as good now as always, they are a good solid reliable handguns. I have a number of xd's in 9mm, 45, and 10mm. Hope springfield continues the evolution of the xd line.

cant go wrong with the xd's, i have a xd-m elite in .45

i am late to this party, but as retired leo i have carried the .40 s&w caliber since our transition from the s&w 686 back in the late 80's. we transitioned to glock's g 22, g23, and g27's. i am up in years now but still edc the g27 and shoot it well, regular range time is a joy with the .40's. i...

Love the 300bo, I have a couple to supplement my 5.56. However with the suppressor tax being eliminated the complete nfa should go away. as a law abiding American citizen i don't think or want to to have ask "daddy" for a permission slip for something our constitution allows under the 2nd amendment.

The ammo you reviewed is good premium ammo which should always be carried for self defense. However in my research in gel test the prime top round for expansion and penetration is the federal premium 90g hydra shock, it's also bonded keeps its weight and doesn't fragment. Just a thought keep up...

I carry a 380 on occasions, other times I carry a 9mm hellcat for just knocking around, other times I carry a .40 or 45, all are sub compact, I researched the best ammo to carry in all of them including the 380, the research was from penetration and expansion during gel test. The best performing...

Any time I get a pistol without night sights I always change them to night sights, I have used the xs, fishion, ameriglo, and the springfield u notch, I like the springfield u notch on my xd's, and hellcats. I am an armorer, have the sight tools, and change my sights myself.

Excellent article every body needs to practice retention firing and feel comfy with it. I am retired leo enforcement and we practiced and included retention shooting in our firearms qualification. And yes the hellcat is an excellent weapon I have a couple of them and carry them from time to...

very well written article. in my semi retired chapter of life, it depends on where i am going and how i am dressed on what pistol i carry. my normal edc is a glock 27 with a glock+2 mag (11+1) and a glock 22 backup mag with the xgrip spacer. if i need something a little smaller i go with a...
