    Self-defense ammo: FMJ or untested JHP?

    Man, in a hurry is an understatement. Been running the last 2 weeks taking care of the family, sorting stuff in the garage, buying new clothes, dry cleaning old clothes, finding a temp place to stay in Colorado Springs, while working full time. I leave Saturday. Start new job on Monday.

    Self-defense ammo: FMJ or untested JHP?

    Well, I don't have a .380, I've got a .45 ACP, so it's gonna have to work. Some times a fella has to use what he's got.

    Self-defense ammo: FMJ or untested JHP?

    How effective is the .45 Auto FMJ for self defense? I've never looked at the numbers/stats etc. WWB 230 grain FMJ is what I'll use.

    Self-defense ammo: FMJ or untested JHP?

    Let's say you're moving in a week to an extended stay hotel in another State. You will bring a 1911 for lawful personal protection. You know the 1911 feeds your FMJ ammo fine. You've never tested the other JHP ammo you have through the pistol, and you won't have time to test before you move. The...

    I've not seen the pistol before. Nice find. I like the grips.

    New to 1911, are nosedives common?

    No, it's not normal for a 1911 to nosedive. That sounds like an issue Taurus needs to resolve.

    .308 is a nice cartridge, first experience

    I got hooked on the .308 when I tried 165/168 grain rounds: sub-moa in a stock Remington 700.

    A Firsthand Look at the Killing Power of the Lowly 45 Colt

    I'm sending my work computer to you for "testing", and I don't really care about velocity. Just take care of it. Thanks!

    Mt Goat hunt week one report.

    Wow, that's some hard hunting. Great pics! Funny how they disappear all at once like that. They must talk shop with the turkeys about strategy during the hunting season. Good luck next week, maybe they'll be back!

    Moving to Colorado Springs, CO; any suggestions for ranges, gun stores, etc.?

    I landed a new job in Colorado Springs, and I start in 2 weeks. :) I was wondering if any fellow THR members could suggest any ranges, gun stores, or other gun-related stuff to do there? I'm really excited, but sad because my family will have to stay behind in Kansas initially. I'll need...
