    What's the best shot you ever made?

    I got two. Got fairly consistent shooting clays from the thrower with a 10/22. Most of the time I can get 2 out of 3. You almost need a spotter to call the hits. They don't break only throw a little dust. One afternoon goofing off with an aluminum can on a pond I popped it up off the water with...

    Concealed Carriers, do you carry spare magazines?

    I have never had my house catch on fire, never had a flat, never had a heart attack. Never carry anything that ever malfunctions.

    Concealed Carriers, do you carry spare magazines?

    Carrying a spare mags because your primary may malfunction is a ridiculous state of mind to me. Carrying a spare because the zombies may get you is on a more rational plane of thinking. A malfunction of any kind under any condition isn't allowed in my selection of a defensive pistol. My 2 cents.

    Carry At Work?

    I generally avoid places where it is unlawful to carry like the plague. I carry in the bank at least once a week. I don't carry in places where the consequences if caught are severe, I almost never go to those places either.

    Carry At Work?

    I turn wrenches in a mom and pop shop in a town of 20k people. Its a small place. Every morning when I put on the blue I stow my pistol and automatic knife(love Kentucky law) in my box and trade them for whatever knife is currently honed to a razors edge. It's known I carry. So do others there...

    browning a5/rem 11 barrel shortening question

    A few days ago i picked up a remington model 11 with an 18 inch barrel. It kicks like a mule. Before im told to put on my big girl panties and suck it up could someone explain to me how lightening the barrel(by removing several inches) affects friction ring setup. The bevel is worn almost off...
