    What IWB Holster for the 4" M&P M2.0 Compact 9mm

    So I've been dreaming of getting the M&P 9mm compact since it came out. Now if one were to get one, what is a nice IWB holster for it that isn't super expensive?

    Help. Trying to change sites on M&P

    Ok folks please help me out. I have an M&P 2.0 5”. I’ve taken it to the range and it’s an amazing gun. It’s dead on and even with my so so shooting I can hit targets dead center at 10 yards doing rapid fire. I suspect as I get more practice and get better well the gun isn’t something I can use...

    Bifocal wearers what do you do?

    well I’ve hit the age where I need reading glasses. The thing is my distant vision is still pretty amazing as I had lasic done 18 years ago and love it and still see great far. I also have a minor astigmatism so I have glasses with no Rx in one eye and a minor one in the other for night...

    What powder drop for LCT

    Now that spring is here I’m getting to shoot more. Previously I’ve taken my time and loaded my ammo when I’ve had time. Well I knew there would be a time where I’d have to up the production speed. It seems I’m rapidly approaching that time. So, I’m looking to take advantage of my Lee Classic...

    NRA HQ RANGE

    Today I have an appointment in Reston so figured I’dcome up early and check out the NRA HQ range. I figured I’d get some practice in and also see how the facility is. Having grown up in Fairfax I used to live a few miles from the NRA HQ so getting there was easy. Just follow the sings to the...

    Range bags, a different discussion

    Most of the discussions I see on gun bags are on which to get. I have a different need here. I have a beautiful G.P.S. Large bag that my son got me. I love it as all of my stuff is in in. Everything has a place and it’s easy to see what is there and what isn’t. The only drawback is the bag is...

    Gun safe questions

    i was in Walmart the other day and saw an inexpensive gun safe and it got me thinking. I know they’re not great and can easily be gotten into if someone really wants to. My question is, is an inexpensive safe worth it to keep your guns organized and ensure that yo7 can say you made an effort...

    Finally got my 5” M&P

    After a very long wait. I finally got my 9mm M&P 5” M2.0 I plan to use for three gun and possibly other competition. I would have preferred black but am pretty sure they don’t offer a black 2.0 in 5” right now. The pics are right after I got home so I haven’t been to the range yet. I did try...

    Australia’s gun laws not working

    The anti gun crowd like to say we’re the only ones with mass murders. We know this is a lie. They say Australia’s gun laws should be a model for us Here’s proof both are lies and an example Australia’s laws don’t work if someone really wants to kill a bunch of people with a gun...

    Interesting Article on Warren Buffett and his views on gun control

    I think this is a great article that gives some insight into Warren Buffett and those who want to destroy our 2nd Amendment rights. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/05/warrent-buffett-doubles-down-on-doing-business-with-gun-owners.html If this isn't the right forum please move. But I think...

    Opinions on the Mossberg 930 JM Pro Series

    Does anyone here own one? I'm asking as I'm wanting to try 3 gun and I'm thinking of getting one. Now, I know I probably should use my Remington 870 pump until I decide if I like 3 gun, but I hate the kick of the 870 (it wouldn't be bad but I have a messed up shoulder that it bothers). I know...

    Unusual need to be armed the antis won’t like

    i just saw this https://wtop.com/virginia/2018/03/english-bull-terrier-shot-after-attacking-woman-with-toddler/ Looks like a good guy with a gun saved the day. I do feel bad for the dog and owner, but that’s another discussion as to why he attacked.

    Interesting news article on AR build class

    It seems that some reporters can be somewhat objective. While there was a slight anti feel to this article for MSM I thought it it was pretty balanced and not horrible...

    Reloading/work bench build

    As some of you know, I moved right before Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, my old place had the work benches built in. So I’ve been without a bench since moving. Between the cost of moving, the holidays and just getting caught up, I haven’t had a chance to buy the rest of the stuff to build a new...

    The lefts approach to getting attention

    I can’t stand CNN but I skim their weight to see what the left is doing and saying The fifth paragraph of the following struck me https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/04/politics/daca-advocacy-push-aclu-trump-immigration/index.html It seems given the events and the attacks on us and the NRA we need to...

    What AR to build next?

    I'm wrapping up my budget 3 gun rifle build. (I've ordered the barrel and am waiting on it). With all of the talk of banning ARs, I'm thinking I might like to build one in honor of all of those who are calling for an AWB. So if I do it what should I build? I currently have a basic PSA 16"...

    Mother may I? And the left denying citizens our rights

    https://wtop.com/maryland/2018/02/md-lawmakers-want-eliminate-handgun-permit-review-board/ It seems the left in Maryland don’t get that the 2nd Amendment is a Constitutional RIGHT. This article shows why we all need to get out, work to get rid of these “law makers” and protect our rights...
