If you were in charge in your state and were told you had to set the course of fire / standards for CCW holder's to pass (and yes they must qual.). What would your course of fire be? Remember, not all CCW holders are gun enthusiasts or athletic. This is also assuming someone else is...

I've been reading about how Kimber uses MIM parts, and was wondering if Para did. If so what parts are MIM ?

I keep a SG in the closet for HD as a backup / heavy artillary. (My main weapon is a handgun). I've always keep it loaded with buck (latley, tac.00) and keep a few rounds of slug in the cuff just in case. I've been wondering why bother with buck at all and not go with just...

Just curious, what is average distance you've taken deer, and what is the farthest distance? I'm guessing most are under 100yds, and very few over 300yds. My main reason for asking is to know what ranges to practice at the most, and to help in scope selection. (please no...

I've shoot a friends and done searches on these guns. They are fine shooting and seem reliable. What I want to know is this: does anyone have any long term/high round count usage of these and how do they hold up? I like the long term durability of the 1911 design, but don't know...

How many rounds do you crono when testing a new load? I did an experiment yesterday, 2 different loads thru 2 different guns (4 combinations). I did 5 shots, and then did 10 shots. My standard deviations and extreme spreads where split down the middle 1/2 each were higher with 5 rounds...

So which is more reliable? I've heard that 7 rounders are more so than 8 rounders but that is fully loaded. I've been wondering about the downloaded mags. I realize this is kinda sided toward the 1911 mags, but if you feel something else is even more reliable choose #3 and...

OK here's the deal; I am going to take a family vacation in a couple of months that will take me across a few state lines. Some of those states honor my permit, others don't. Will spend most nights in campgrounds in tents. Here are the guns I have narrowed it down to: A...

Given a choice which would you choose and why. Don't include price as a reason, this is out of my own pocket and I can afford either. I work security, and the way I see it my threats are going to be up close plus I very well could run the risk of being disarmed. I've narrowed...

Does anyone have any data for loading with a 150GR FP over H380? This is the powder that I have on hand, but I can't find it listed in my manuals with a 150Gr 30-30(Sierra) . Not looking for a max. load, just a mid-range target/ practice load. Just trying to use up some of my...
