I had been wanting to add a 1911 in 9mm to my fleet. I have also been intrigued by Armscor's 22TCM cartridge. So I killed 2 birds with 1 stone and purchased this RIA Rock Ultra FS 1911 22TCM/9mm Combo. The pistol is full-size 5". The rear sight is an LPA brand, fully click-adjustable for...

Just received this new Wright Predator holster for my S&W 686 Plus 3" Talo Edition after a 10-week wait. It has the "Master Collection" upgrade with a double layer of full grain leather on the inside as well as the outside. First impressions: This holster is a leather work of art. Beautifully...

Just received this new holster I ordered from Blackpoint Tactical for my Sig P320 Compact. I wore it CCW today for the first time and thought I would share my observations. This is the Leather Wing holster, which seems to combine the best features of both leather and kydex. The shell is kydex...

Just picked this up yesterday from my FFL. It is a S&W 686 Plus (7-round) L-Frame .357 Magnum 3" Barrel Talo Edition. I can offer no rational justification for this purchase other than I just wanted it. My collection has been getting boringly repetitious, all semi-autos of various brands and...

I wanted to add a P-series Sig to my collection, and I chose this P225-A1 Classic as my first P-series (definitely won't be my last). It is a single-stack (8+1) 9mm DA/SA with decocker. I was also considering a M11-A1 or a Legion P229, but my high cap carry needs are already covered by other...

This is a new addition to my fleet: Sig P320 Compact 9mm. I purchased this gun from my LGS for $566.00. It has a unique model designation: W320C-9-BSS-PRE. The owner of my LGS said it was part of an over-run for a large LE order. The invoice says "L.E. Tolerance", whatever that means. The only...

Although not often, I sometimes choose to CCW one of my full-size pistols, outside of my regular daily (Glock 19, Kahr K9, Shield .45, etc.) rotation. As we know, it can be a challenge to find a good holster that will conceal a large gun properly and comfortably. I believe I have found the ideal...

I just picked up my new Shield 45 from my FFL last week. I bought it as a companion to my Shield 9 Performance Center. I really like my Shield 9 and I shoot it very well, so I expected the same from the Shield 45 and I was not disappointed! This is a really sweet gun. Slightly larger in all...

I recently added this little gem to the stable. It's a S&W M&P 15-22 Sport. It functions just like regular AR for the most part. I added some Magpul furniture and a Bushnell TRS-25 Red Dot on a UTG medium riser, which allows it to co-witness perfectly with the Magpul BUIS sights that came...

I purchased this K9 Elite 9mm as a blem from Bud's. I picked it up yesterday from my FFL. Neither he nor I could find a single blemish on the gun, nor was the trigger guard stamped with a "B" as is Kahr's practice with blemished guns. So basically I got what I consider to be a new, unblemished...

If you're like me, you are always searching for the"right" CCW holster. I carry my guns OWB at 2:30-3:00. Now, I have multiple holsters for most of my guns, high-quality leather holsters from High-Noon, Lobo, and Galco, etc. But for those "TactiCool" carry days, I prefer kydex. Four of my main...

This is the newest addition to my fleet, just received yesterday from Bud's. S&W 1911SC-e, .45acp, Commander size, scandium frame and stainless slide. Came with Trijicon tritium night sights, a flush-fit 7-round magazine and an extended 8-round magazine. I wanted a 1911 to add to my carry...

I recently purchased a M&P40 Police trade-in (Detroit PD) and wanted a new holster for it. I didn't intend for this gun to be used much if at all for CCW as it is quite large, and I have several other guns that are more appropriate for CCW, but I wanted a holster that I could use for CCW if I...

Here we have the newest addition to my fleet. It is an M&P40 FS. It is a police trade-in from the Detroit Police Dept. Although it's a police trade, it is brand new in box. It is in pristine, new condition, and has never been fired but for the factory test round. It has Trijicon night sights...

Just picked up today from my FFL. Purchased from Grab-A-Gun. This is the new Shield Performance Center. I love my regular Shield which I have had a year now and is one of my favorite carry guns. However when I first saw the new Performance Center version I couldn't resist! The main differences...

After resisting for a long time, I finally decided to enter the world of AR's. I have no interest in building a custom gun, you know- "uppers" and "lowers" and all that. I just wanted a simple, basic, brand-name AR that I can enjoy on the beautiful outdoor range at my gun club. After much...

First, Let me begin by saying that I am an experienced and well-informed gun owner and enthusiast, so I don't need to be educated about Taurus handguns and how anyone who purchases a Taurus "must be an idiot". That being said, I suspect that there will be some Taurus-bashers unable to resist...

I am meticulous about cleaning my handguns. I clean them after every range trip, regardless of how many rounds I fire. I recently purchased Hoppes Viper Bore Snakes that I want to incorporate into my cleaning regimen. The rods, patch loops,patches, brushes and jags are getting to be tedious...

Here is the new addition to my carry rotation. Glock 19 Gen4, purchased from Grab-A-Gun for $539.00. Even after shipping and FFL fee I was all-in for around $565.00 I thought that was a pretty good deal. I have a High-Noon custom OWB holster on order, but that won't be in for a few weeks yet...

I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but this is an example of how a high quality holster and gun belt makes CCW'ing a large gun a breeze. This is one of my favorite EDC rigs. Sig SP2022 9mm, which is a large gun, in a High Noon pancake holster (which I purchased from another THR forum...
