    Morning dead hands

    After about 10 years I picked up the guitar again and play with a praise band at church now. My shooting scores in IDPA have been improving significantly.

    How to survive an active shooter video from Homeland Security ???

    That line at the end... "Evacuate whether others want to or not" reminds me of the World Trade Center stories where people were being told to go back up to their offices and wait for help to come. Screw that! Looks like they finally got it right on this one. If you see an opening to leave... you...

    Going to Gunsite! Any tips?

    9mmepiphany, that photo shows a very good grip and stance. Nice choice of weapon also. I'm jealous :D Just wondering about your glasses... I have to look through mine to focus on the target, then look over them to focus on the sights. I can do it very quickly, but it is sometimes cumbersome...

    any people of color?

    Regarding the insults from Nushif and his "wife" Wow! I just came back and saw where the Nushif's want to get personal and sling some mud on the HighRoad. He and his wife keep confusing "rights" and "acceptance" in this discussion, alternating between the two concepts as if they were one. I...

    any people of color?

    I don't judge anyone because of the color of their skin alone. But I do judge based upon actions and behavior. The way one chooses to dress tells me a lot about them. That will never change. You can't change the color of your skin, but you can "fit in" by the way you present yourself if you...

    Give me your take on this

    Agree. Don't get involved when you don't know what is going on. Too much risk of liability.

    How do you sell a gun?

    You guys are so funny! Making up all these little rules for selling your guns to make you feel like you are helping to stop bad people from getting them. This is hilarious! A buyer (of Anything) should always ask for a written receipt to prove he paid for the item. The seller doesn't need to...

    Trouble in the Big D

    So... you paid him because you were afraid of him? He got mad so you tried to appease him with a reward? Doesn't make sense to me. I would have called his bluff. You never saw a weapon?

    Which Pistol? 3 Proven 9mm's

    Can't go wrong with a Glock, but at some point you will want to try and improve the trigger with polishing and aftermarket parts. Or, like I later discovered, just get a Walther PPQ and enjoy the stock trigger as it is!

    Flying to Chicago. Carry or no carry.

    Same problem when summoned for jury duty. Can't carry into the court house. Can't even carry while walking through Atlanta to get there because there is no place to leave it before you go in. Feels like being absolutely naked but there is no choice.

    Which tigger system do you like in a semi auto?

    I like consistent feel on each shot. 1911 S/A would be great if I could trust myself to remember to flick the safety off under stress... but I don't, so I carry striker fired Glock or the new Walther PPQ. Next best thing.

    Why not a Glock 19???

    I had a G19 and was happy with it until I shot the new PPQ. Wow! It is the fulfillment of the Glock revolution. Walther took the Glock design and perfected it in the PPQ. Now I have one of my own and sold my Glock. Never looking back again...

    Walther PPQ Mags

    I've been searching online for part number WAF76001 to get the correct PPQ mags and I found about twenty sites that have them listed as "Out of Stock" with "NO ETA". Anyone in the gun business know what is going on with these? Has the manufacturer been hit by an earthquake or something?
