    Handgun Compensators- Do they really affect Flip and Recoil?

    I have loctite on mine and it has never moved. It’s in a perfect spot after probably well over 1000rds of 10mm. Springer designed it to thread with the SA barrel and align just right. No set screw either. Set screws tend to loosen and wobble in my experience. No failures when cycling no...

    Handgun Compensators- Do they really affect Flip and Recoil?

    Agree - would not do this on a carry gun of smaller stature. Clearly this is not one of my carry guns ;)

    Handgun Compensators- Do they really affect Flip and Recoil?

    I am not loading my own, these are the stats from the side of the Underwood ammo box I use often. I have not done any tests to confirm this velocity. I also stand corrected, its 135gr at 1600fps per the box (not 180gr). If my math is right these should have about 750ftlbs of energy. Assuming...

    Handgun Compensators- Do they really affect Flip and Recoil?

    I have a Springer comp on my XDM 10mm 4.5" OSP w/Threaded barrel and co-witness iron sites (not-elite), and YES it makes a HUGE difference. It's a little bit louder, but the felt recoil is much less, I can push hot 10mm 180gr 1600fps and the recoil is no more than a typical 45acp or even a stout...

    Carry Guns: Does Size Matter?

    I have meaty wide hands so the micros just don't feel right for me. I carried the Ruger SP101 for a long while which is not very small or light and only 5 rounds, but I managed it with an OWB even in perpetual summer here in FL. Just had good cover shirts and good belts on cargo shorts or jeans...

    What do you Pocket Carry?

    My pocket would be on the inside of my Jean jacket on rare cold days in my area (S. FL). That would be a SA XD 9mm subcompact.

    The EDC Merry-Go-Round

    I am one of those that has bought, traded, and sold 100’s of guns over the years. But they all stay with me and get used heavily for at least a year or more. I have had so many great learning experiences from so much variety I really appreciate that. There are a few I wish I never let go and now...

    1911 EDC holster?

    I wasn’t sure where to post this on EDC or gear so I’ll put it here for now. I used to be a big 1911 guy but took a break for a while and have been carrying my Xd 9mm subcompact. I just recently bought a 1911 Garrison in 45. I’d love to carry this frequently, but I’m a big guy with a little bit...
