    CCW holders helping the police

    I seen one on truTv or some other reality "Bad guys gone bad" show where they use real footage and interview the people involved. The CCW holder was a freelance video camera operator who seen a guy beating up on a police officer, he sat his camera down rolling, pulled his firearm out and...

    No holster carry?

    Yeah, Ive been carrying it around the house with no magazine for a few hours now and although it hasn't moved, I don't find it comfortable as the chimp uncocked hammer keeps digging into my belly and I find myself adjusting it as it becomes uncomfortable. I know the added weight from a loaded...

    No holster carry?

    Besides the obvious pocket carry for certain guns, are there people on here who don't use a holster to carry? Im 6' 180 and I find that quite a few holsters make the gun sit higher than I like and the handle prints like no tomorrow. I tried just sliding my CZ 82 in the waist band of my favorite...

    Concealing a snub-nose vs. sub-compact

    I meant different materials used. A pound of bricks vs a pound of feathers. They weigh the same but one is more compact due to materials used. Also you would have 5 more bullets to store somewhere.

    Concealing a snub-nose vs. sub-compact

    Physical properties of materials? The revolver will be more compact than the semi due to less material used to make the weapon.

    Red Jacket

    http://realitytvwebsite.com/RealityTVNews/AMERICAN-GUNS-Series-Premiers-Monday-October-10-at-10pm-ET-PT-On-Discovery-Channel.html Sounds like what I hoped SoG would have been.

    Neighbor hands me a pistol pointed at self.

    When I hand over a gun, I check and clear the gun. Lock the slide back or cylinder out. Then hand it while holding the slide or hole where the cylinder is with the barrel pointing down grip first.

    My scratch Blackpowder build.

    Yeah that's the basic idea. I've got a background in Paintball and quite a few markers are inline hammer designs.

    My scratch Blackpowder build.

    Nope. I've got an idea of how thick and hard I want the barrel and receiver to be, but everything is by eye.

    My scratch Blackpowder build.

    First time barrel mated to receiver. It sits flush now. As soon as I figure out what outside diameter I want the barrel, I'll mill a recess pocket into the receiver.

    Anyone make one from scratch?

    http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?p=7595390#post7595390 Thats the new thread. I figured I would document it in pictures.

    My scratch Blackpowder build.

    I'm not 100% sure this is the right place for this type of thread but some others suggested I make a build thread for the BP Pistol I'm making my dad for Christmas. This IS NOT a How-To. I reccomend NO ONE try making a gun from scratch as it is dangerous if not done properly. My background...

    Red Jacket

    That stock wasn't milled on the bridgeport. That was CNC'd. For him not to know how to turn it on to making that is BS. No way to get that finish in those radius' with just bolting the piece to the table. I am a tool maker and can't do it, much less than some monkey who doesn't know climb...

    http://garagegunsmithing.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=54&jfile=viewtopic.php&f=28&t=1388 Seems simple and cool. Looks like I'll try this design out. Im using a black powder not some sub-nuclear wonder powder. The Chinese made ancient barrels with wrought iron, bronze, brass and even...

    Anyone make one from scratch?

    Just wondering where a good resource would be as I'm looking into making my dad a set of dueling pistols for Christmas. I've got some 1" 4140 round stock and am looking to make a percussion cap pistol with a 3" barrel. Maybe handle 15-20 grains of BP to propel a .45 caliber ball through some...
