    NYT retracts article about Capitol Police officer who was "killed by fire extinguisher"

    Now that the "impeachment" is over, the truth is starting to come out. Just....wow. I wonder if we'll ever know what actually killed the officer...

    Don't fall for it...

    We seem to be a relatively bright bunch here...but just in case, don't fall for it! https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/01/do_not_fall_for_a_plot_to_entrap_second_amendment_supporters.html?utm_source=vuukle&utm_medium=newsfeed Lucy will most definitely NOT hold the football for you...

    Anyone familiar with ArmaLaser?

    I run a Viridian R5 instant-on green laser on my XD-s, but they don't make one yet for the Hellcat. Currently I have an O-light Baldr Mini green laser/tac light combo on my Hellcat, but it's bulky. Works nice, love the rechargeable feature, but for EDC it's just a big square hunk of aluminum on...

    Hellcat grip is shredding my shirts

    This kinda sucks. Been carrying an XD-s Mod.1 (waffle grip) for years with no issues. Same holster, just new kydex to fit the Hellcat. My shirts, where I carry (3:00), are shredding from the inside-out, after only about a month with the Hellcat. Pulling, pilling, puckering, and just looking...

    Ammo shipping...

    So, I've ALWAYS gotten my ammo online, in bulk. Never had a problem. Went to ammoseek.com, optics planet had a decent (for COVID-era, anyway) price on 9mm, so I tried to get some. Error message. "Cannot ship to your state due to state laws". HUH??? I also tried to send them a message about...

    Hellcat sights?

    I have to check...but is the dovetail on a Hellcat the same as an XD-s? Or does it match any other Springfield gun? I loveloveLOVE the front sight on my Hellcat, but the U-shaped rear...I want something low-light-visible. The front is tritium, I want a tritium rear to go with it. Has anyone...

    Working with kydex?

    So, since I have made my Hellcat "un-holster-able" from any mainstream company by adding a laser to it...I ordered some kydex sheets online this weekend and plan to try my hand at a DIY holster shell, to fit my Alien Gear backing pieces. I currently have 2 Alien IWB holsters for my XD-s, and I...

    First gun show coming up

    So, I plan to attend my first "gun show" this weekend (NoVa, Chantilly VA) and curious what to expect. I'm already prepared to spend money while I'm there..."just in case" I find something I need...any other etiquette rules or things to look out for? I noticed they have a "no loaded firearms"...

    Hellcat is home

    So, I picked up the FDE Hellcat today. Color may just stay - it's not as "bright" as my brain made it out to be. It was D-R-Y. I wanted to take it right to the range, but there was NOTHING for lube on it. No assembly lube, no clean lube...nada. No damage...they just shipped it dry as a bone...

    Anyone dyed their polymer gun?

    So, I pick up my FDE Hellcat on Saturday (waiting period). I'll need to see it against my body and clothing, but at the moment...I'm just not sure about the FDE coloring, and concealability. But given the current climate and market...it was there, so I bought it. I'm considering dying it...

    SCORE! Today at the LGS...

    So, Thursday was my birthday. Woo. Hoo. I hate birthdays, I hate the pomp, I hate the cheesy cards...I hate how big the numbers are getting. Far as I'm concerned...it's a Thursday. I get home from work and check the mail. Hm. Freedom Mortgage? I sold that house in June...WTF? Open it up...and...

    Steel casings / XD-s 9mm?

    Think they'd be OK in the XD-s? Looks to be about all I can find to stock up on at the moment (Wolf). Using for practicing at home. Strip and clean after every session (cleaning / Hoppe's is as therapeautic for me as the shooting itself!). Think I'd have any unusual wear issues?

    Tactical furniture?

    So, I'm looking for advice from anyone who has 'tactical' furniture in their house. Leaning towards a floating shelf for my Mossberg 12ga...anyone have experience with a particular manufacturer? It looks like tacticalwalls.com has the most appealing design to me so far, but would love to hear...

    HR5717

    Not sure if this has been posted here or not, but from one of my motorcycle forums: This looks pretty ominous, if it passes. The thing that really gets me is, ammunition. I live in the People's Republik of Maryland, so I'm kinda used to the rest of the stuff, but having to be 21 and have a...

    Some words of wisdom, from Mike Rowe

    I'm sure we all know who Mike Rowe is - host of Dirty Jobs, and likely the single largest source of common sense on the planet. This is a long read, but very timely and extremely full of...well....common sense. In my mind? Rowe for President, 2024.

    Roll pins on XD-s

    So, my EDC is my XD-s 9mm. No issues with the firearm, but curious about finish care. The slide looks great, the polymer (not surprisingly) is holding up great...but the roll pins that hold the mechanicals in place in the polymer frame are starting to get surface rust (body sweat, etc). Should I...

    Best way to DIY sight replacement, XDs?

    OK, so I'm mechanically inclined. Build cars, motorcycles, home improvements, wiring, plumbing...about the only things I stay away from are welding, and freon. I have an XDs as my EDC, and I just bought some TruGlo sights for it. I have a press in the garage that I can make a correct jig for...

    Practice thoughts, considering today's climate and limited ammunition supplies

    So, my EDC is my 9mm XDs. Naturally, that is my preferred practice gun. But, rounds are in short supply these days and I don't want to burn through my supply without some chance at restocking. I also have a .38 revolver. COMPLETELY different animal...but I wouldn't be as worried about running...
