    Help with research paper please.

    Thank you. I have been coming across a lot of great info from John Lott. I will have to check out the others. Anyone know of any good info from the anti side? I can't find much that actually sounds credible or will back up statements...

    I have to write a research paper for my English class. I am researching the effects of concealed permit holders on a states violent crime rate. I have a lot of good info to start with, but I will be grateful for any suggestions. The main reason I am posting here is because I need insight...

    "American Guns" TV show.....

    I caught the second episode on my DVR and only the fast forward button made the show watchable. I liked the guns, but didn't really care for the people selling them. Glad we have shows about the gun industry, but they really need some work before I'll watch 'em...

    The Gun You Would Trust your Life To

    I carry a full size 1911 and trust it perfectly. I also trust my XD40s when I carry them. I do carry my wife's LCP from time to time, and while I know it is a perfectly capable firearm I feel a little strange while carrying it and hesitate using it as my primary gun.

    Risks vs benefits of muzzle contact in self defense?

    I think that the guide rod in an XD extends in front of the barrel to facilitate contact shots. Haven't tried it myself though. Just tried it out and I don't think I would bet my life on it. It seems to work when you are just pressing the gun into a body, but using any more force then light...

    First 1911 Recommendations

    I paid $770 for my Kimber Custom and am very happy that I did. I have 550 rounds through it and no problems at all. I found that I shoot it much better then my XD40s. For what it's worth, I carry it every day.

    Serbu Super Shorty. Is it worth $700?

    The extra 200 bucks would be the deal breaker. From what I read on Serbu's sight I thought I was just dealing with $5 extra. Would be cool, but the idea of spending a grand for a Mossberg kinda bums me out...

    Question:improving shooting accuracy?

    I know there are more than few .22 kits for the Kimbers. It's something I have been looking into myself.

    Cleaning Question

    I remember hearing about heated carb cleaner turning into chlorine gas which is a very terrible thing to breathe...
