    Different target location.

    On most paper targets, the ten ring is centered on the chest. I think just below the belt buckle would be a better location, Many men can easily take a hard punch to their chest and not fall, where, a very light tap below the belt buckle will bring them to their knees. There is the hard...

    Nitpicking Walther ad,,

    ….on back cover of May American Rifleman. #1, It looks to me like the gun is aimed right at his important parts. Not where I want a gun barrel pointed, that’s for sure. #2. the title “It;s Your Duty to be ready”. All in caps. so are they trying to lay a guilt trip on us, or what. Maybe I’m...

    Chipman nomination derailed.

    Recently saw an alert from WLP that the NRA takes all the credit for this…Says the NRA spent over $1 million dollars to defeat it.. How was the money spent? I would like to know, maybe not to the penny,but to the nearest $10,000. I would like to see an accounting.

    RIA BBR 3.10

    Started with the review in American Rifleman,,,doubt they’ve ever found an advertiser’s gun they didn’t like....then looked at many other reviews, and Armscor’s site. This little, but heavy gun is impressive. All reviewers seemed to like it, which is slightly unusual. The gun is heavy, 34...

    RIA 206 vs Colt Detective

    I have a new 206, under $150, it shoots fine,, I like the rubber grips they included for free, though still shoot it with the wood grips.. IN some reviews I saw it compared to the Detective, as in roughly the same size and configuration etc. I’ve never held the Colt so I don’t know...However...

    Idle thought about CCW

    I probably should’ve research this myself, but I’m feeling lazy today,,,,,,I know there are ‘holsters’ that do not look like holsters, such as cell phone cases, fanny packs, back packs and whatever....So it is concealed carry. I am wondering about a military type holster from back in the...

    Looking for a revolver size comparison

    I have several NEF R73 revolvers,,, that’s the 32 H&R Magnum,, Yeah, yeah,, I know all your opinions about this and that. What I am looking for is a current model revolver of the same size, so I can find a holster. Obviously I have my gun and can measure it, but I don’t know what current...

    Time Rex Alpha

    Just read the review on this gun in American Rifleman,,, I’m going to have to go look, but there is something about “the barrel’s breechblock locking into the slide’s ejection port’....comment that sure puts me in mind of a Star, or an FEG from days long past. What do you think?

    Don’t shoot it ‘cause it might break, and then no parts available.

    I was reading the thread “wearing out a firearm’.. Several commented they have a gun they don’t shoot because they can’t get parts for it,,, maybe the manufacturer is out of business, or the model has been discontinued so long.....who knows. I have some guns which are real difficult to find...

    Revolver Accuracy

    How do you measure your revolver’s accuracy. for a true picture I shoot from sand bags, or a pistol rest. for example a Dan Wesson (early) with a 12” barrel is bullseye accurate at 50 yds. A 38 Special snubbie, with 3” barrel from bags or a rest is reasonably accurate, at 5 yds. Both of...
