    Ruger 10/22 cheek riser.

    I mounted one of the Cabela's rimfire scopes on my 10/22 and due to the height of the scope rings (I bought the shortest ones I could find) I can no longer get a good cheek weld when shooting. Are you guys using any specific risers to remedy this problem?

    Browning 1911-380

    I'm actually kinda excited about this. I wasn't big on their scaled down 1911-22 because I couldn't envision any need it would fill. For me, if it isn't a collector's item or fills a practical need, then it usually ends up sitting around collecting dust. I could actually envision carrying this...

    Everyone jettisoning .40 S&W?

    So the FBI decided to return to the venerable 9mm Luger for their duty sidearms. Not a big surprise, I could see it coming. Bit everywhere I look there are a glut of police trade in .40 handguns and civilians seem to be selling theirs off as fast as prudence would allow. I base this solely off...

    Gun belts for IWB

    Looking for a new gun belt for carrying a full size, all steel, gun IWB. Anyone have any favorites or recommendations? Doesn't have to be any specific material, but must be able to pass off as a regular belt. This naturally excludes any overtly tacticool stuff.

    Titegroup metering like crap!

    I'm reloading 9mm with 4.2 grains of Titegroup and I can't get it to meter consistently in a Hornady AP press. I expect a certain amount of variation, by my measure is throwing as much as a .5 grain high or low. I just don't get it. I've cleaned my measure, degreased it, played around with where...

    A Tale of Two Hi-Powers

    My love of the venerable P35 started long ago. I read an article as a young buck Sergeant about a hard core motivator on a PSD detail in Israel back in the 70s. His sidearm of choice, the Hi-Power. It wasn't issued, he chose it. When I got out of the military and started working PSD details...

    Defensive Ammo: Roll your own, or factory?

    My long time SOP has been to reload my own range ammo and rely on factory defensive ammo for concealed carry and nightstand guns. I have heard reports of liability issues with reloaded defensive ammo (re: Massad Ayoob), and besides that I always figured factory ammo was rigorously loaded and...

    EMP 1911 slide sticks, won't return to battery.

    Hello, wondering if I can get some help with my Springfield Armory EMP 9mm. About 25-30 percent of the time, when I release the slide SLOWLY forward, it will stick and not slide all the way forward. I have to tap on the back of the slide, or the bottom of the magazine well to get it to unstick...

    Polished 5906 project.

    I got a police trade in 5906 from Bud's recently. It was pretty dinged up and showed a lot of holster wear. I decided that it would be a good project to try and "pimp". Now, I understand that shiny guns aren't everyone's cup of tea. To tell the truth, they aren't really mine either. But I...
