    Hi-Point 10mm NEW PISTOL

    Memories right there. I cut my teeth on those videos in college and at one point was up to SKS rifles because of them... I've since owned 4 different HiPoints, but the rifles are the only survivors. I may have to try this new pistol and a 9mm pistol again...

    Anyone Carrying Glock 42?

    My same conclusion after having both a 43 and 26. When I can have a PCC, a full size, a sub compact and a braced pistol all with Sig365 mags then I'll look closer at it. Don't fix things till they're broke. Sometimes what works works for a reason.

    New experience coming in January, Kansas

    Hello hunters! I had a great deer season this year, tagged out this weekend and then I got something special from KDWP in my inbox. Never been drawn for a special hunt, I'd thought to tag another deer in antlerless but the drive to my spot is 6 hours round trip. This makes for half the...

    Ugly Black Rifles- nope!

    These two got a new coat of camo for deer season. I wiped them clean of anything noticable but I plan to continue updating camo as needed so I don't give wear a second thought. I will update as needed based on climate, mission and wear. They're just cheap tools only useful if they fulfill their...

    Musings on hunting with a shotgun

    Hello all from all over, I live in a state allows all .22 and up center-fire single projectile firearms for deer. I have however always wanted to hunt with buckshot. Could anyone lend me some perspective on hunting with buckshot, whether it's a poor choice to begin with, and if it's worth...

    Never tried that, might have to look for it.

    Significant rust forming on my $1,000 Kahr. Please help!

    Do not use steel wool if possible. The fine metal bits left just feed the next wave of rust. Look for a copper wool, sometimes available in the dish washing aisle.

    One Company

    Gerber for folding knives, I don't know enough about fixed blades to say for sure on them. I have broken and damaged so many Spyderco, Kershaw, etc knives I have come to appreciate the metals used in Gerber's. Not nearly as flashy or cool, but much more functional for a guy who uses and...

    Gold dot VS. 22 year old Kevlar vest

    I've shot old kevlar and pe plates, they've never failed what they were rated for even the stuff from the 80s-90s. When I buy surplus plates, even for decorations, I get an extra plate and pick the worst looking plate and shoot the daylights out of it.

    Larned, Kansas

    I have an AR10 that I would like to push so we might have to get together sometime! I grew up just a short way from Wakeeney, running around at Cedar Bluff reservoir.

    Larned, Kansas

    Hey all, I've been away from Kansas for some time but finally made it home. I'm out west, west of Larned in the country. I'd love to get together with anyone remotely in the area, I'll drive or host. Looking to connect with like minded folks, talk shop, shoot, hunt, train with, etc. Have...

    Heritage Rough Rider

    I've had a few and always became irrationally irritated with the dumb safety. They work. They're awkward, sometimes fitted badly, but they work. My single action 22lr niche is filled by Wranglers now for another $30 apiece.

    Bryco / Jennings .380

    I have one 25acp rof gun and given it's metallurgy I break it down and inspect the firearm for cracks every magazine or two through it. I have heard the same, 22 and 25 are what they are. 380 is okay for occasional use. And avoid 9mm at all costs. @PWC if you'd like to donate a barrel to a...

    AR 15 stripper clips?

    If you've never tried these and discount stripper clips, maybe try again. These are easier on the hands than the milspec design and also can be used as fire starters.

    I want something and I don't know what I need.......

    Daisy's may be cheap but even after shooting air rifles competitively I have a huge respect for the accuracy abilities with the 880. I've known shooters who could light strike anywhere match's with them at 25 yards. That is unbelievable performance for the $40-50 price tag. Just have to do your...

    I want something and I don't know what I need.......

    One thing you have be aware of is that pellet rifles are significantly more bullet finicky than firearms. Don't stock up on a brand or weight or pellet design until it's a proven performer. Crossman pellets have given the most consistent performance across pellet rifles for me, but they're not...

    I want something and I don't know what I need.......

    Depending on what you're shooting...a Daisy 880 is an excellent multi pump 17 cal air rifle. Excellent for pigeons and target shooting. About 4ftlb energy iirc. If you're shooting bigger things a Ruger Impact in 22 cal us a great break barrel. Accuracy is not the same level as the Daisy but...

    Ruger 9mm Carbine Defense?

    Agreed. Light bullets in a 300blk beat 223 and 9mm in short barrels. It's important to note that the heavy bullets definitely cause issues, as some folks don't consider it given that for most of the commonly available 223 rounds muzzle energy is in a pretty small window across bullet weights...

    Ruger 9mm Carbine Defense?

    Data from ar15.com. Be really careful what 300blk you use. As you can see the heavy bullets fall flat on their face in a pistol and never were great in a rifle. Also, you give up the hydrostatic shock for all loads.
