I snagged an S&K weaver scope mount for a Mosin Nagant on eBay at a good price a few weeks back. I picked up some rings today and its a no-go for fit. Either the rail was too big or the rings were too small. I pulled out the micrometer and the outer most width of my rail is measuring .86...
I'm referring to the folks at the Bang Switch who fondled one at SHOT. They claim that the action and trigger is gritty as well as that the grip safety is "horrendous".
Within those options they're all pretty similar in function except that the Nano and the Kahr CM9 are going to fit in an average pocket much easier than the Shield, LC9 or Kahr CW9. There's also the Springfield XDS 9 and Kimber Solo that is closer to the pocket category and several other...
It is for the hotel stay and for carrying through the states that I have reciprocity with. I plan to stay at the best one I can afford but that doesn't rule out all bad things from happening. Locked doors with a chair up under the handle are all well and good but if something happens and if...
Thanks for the input every, I appreciate it. I do have a Sheriff's Dept issued ID and the rest but I'm still not sure whether or not LEOSA applies to me due to the statutory arrest clause. Though according to Kentucky statutes every peace officer has the authority to arrest, I still don't have...
Just found out that my brother-in-law is having his wedding in Maryland sometime next year. I'd like to get the run down on the legalities of traveling armed and have a couple of questions I hope someone can help me out with:
I'll be taking a Gen 4 Glock 19. As I understand it, I must have...
I don't see in advantage to running in the ready position versus just slinging the rifle. If you're talking about distances of half a mile or more between stages, taking the time to sling and unsling the rifle is inconsequential to how much slower you'll run (and use more energy) with it at the...
Yes, you can find threads and disgust for every model of just about every pistol out. That's not important and can't be used as a yardstick about quality.
What's much more important and can be generally ascertained from reading through forum threads is customer service. Any pistol of any...
I wonder, due to its larger surface area is a long gun easier to retain than a handgun...? or is it just easier to have taken since there's more place to grab a hold of? If it is in fact easier to hang on to a long gun in a struggle is that a considerable factor for its selection versus a handgun?
Most people just use the regular AR15 iron sights. Like briansmithwins said, the range adjustments won't match up since they're for 5.56/.223 but you're not going to be making adjustments for a pistol caliber anyway. Just sight it in for 50 or 100 yards, whatever you shoot at, leave it alone...
Going back to concerns of over-penetration... despite my excessive research I've not been able to uncover a single instance of LE or citizen shooting through a bad guy and killing or seriously injuring a bystander behind with a handgun round. All the instances of collateral injury that I've...
Depending on the state, jumping the fence to the back yard and attempting to gain entry to the home could be construed as burglary rather than just trespassing.
That there is something 'magical' about .22 LR that makes it more lethal than a centerfire round, i.e. 'it doesn't exit and bounces around in the head/chest' often followed up with that they know an E.R. doc/paramed/x-ray tech that can corroborate these 'facts'.
The cheapest ammo listed as non-corrosive that I've seen is Wolf 148 grain... but its still close to 50 cents per round. If you wanna shoot your Mosin with corrosive and feel like postponing a cleaning just shoot some WD40 down the bore. That'll keep the corrosive salts in the bore from...
Yes, make him take the gun or ammo out of the store first... so he can buy the other next and load it in his car before walking back in the store?
Are you going to draw down on every person that walks back into the store with the gun they just bought? FREEZE! Oh, sorry... I just had a...
There is a distinct difference between the threat of dieing by industrial accident versus by the hands of a violent career criminal. I'm willing to bet that the dangers of many professions are greater than that of even our armed forces, but that does not belittle the gratitude we have for their...
I don't come to THR to be berated over anyone's perception of my circumstances for asking a legitimate question. It was my understanding that hangfires were mostly something antiquated from the days of cordite charges and mercuric primers. I was looking for firsthand accounts to the...
I just saw in another thread someone stated with some affirmation that, "hangfires can and do happen." But do they really? With modern ammunition and primer composition, is it really worth worrying about an ejected failure-to-fire round becoming a hangfire and detonating out of battery? I've...
