    Inherited a S&W Model 19-4 and a holster marked only 'Longhorn, 10-22.'

    I know about the gun - it's an '81 production 2.5" barrel, round butt 19-4 - but I have no information about the holster. I'm not really a leather aficionado, I'd like to use it for carry but I don't know if it's good enough quality. Does anybody know who made it and if is worth my time...

    "Group of US Soldiers Pose with their M1911 Pitstols"

    IIRC, that and the other commonplace rules of gun safety were really only popularized among firearms users in the 1970s - 80s by the folks at Gunsite and other training centers who got tired of seeing people die in accidents, and to mitigate liability at their facilities.

    Home defense with a 1911

    Clint Eastwood can't be wrong! But seriously though, its a tried and proven personal and home defender. If you have to deal with multiple home invaders your odds might be the highest but they're still pretty good.

    Lower 48 Pilot's Rifle

    What do you fly, Floatpilot? (a float plane obviously, but what make/model/year)? I'm getting my primary instruction in a 172, and I want to buy a nice old PA22 Tri-Pacer when I'm done. I have an attraction to the venerated and venerable Super Cub but because of their classic status, they tend...

    Lower 48 Pilot's Rifle

    So, many of us are probably familiar with the Wild West Guns "Alaskan Copilot" - a .45-70, takedown Marlin lever action intended for bush pilots. In the lower 48, .45-70 is probably a bit much, and the "Copilot" isn't exactly cheap. So what would be a good pilot's survival rifle for those flying...

    Second Quarter 2013 Centerfire Handgun Match | Cheating the Gallows

    The adjusted/fixed dichotomy herein is drawn from standard handgun terminology; dovetailed sights lacking windage and elevation adjustment points (screws to turn, et al) count as fixed.

    Precision Rifle Competition in Russia (pics)

    The Russian bear cavalry laughs at your puny ITAR! Laughs and spits upon it! ............but seriously if they can afford that gear than can probably afford getting into Russia, legally or otherwise.

    AR15 with Biathlon Bolt Action? (to thwart gun bans)

    :) Its not the kind of thing one patents, as it would be easy to work around and achieve the same effect. Better to compete on quality and being first to market. Look at the AR industry - the AR15 has been out-of-patent for decades and yet many companies find success building a design they have...
