    I need help trying to find an EDC gun

    Have you tried a G43 with a +1 or +2 baseplate on the mag? They seem to add a lot more to the grip then the dimensions on paper would lead you to believe... In the end though, for me, I find not being able to get my pinky on the grip was more mentally bothersome than it actually effected my...

    Gun like hand gesture conviction in PA Superior Court as disorderly conduct

    After I read this article, I've found most online headlines of it are worded in a click bait fashion to play on the negative image of guns in the media. Making that gesture is just as good as any other threat... It's only making headlines because it's loosely gun related. I would expect the...

    Press check

    The beep definitely affects the flavor and has been scientifically proven to cause cancer, bleeding from the eyes and ED. Protect yourself!

    Press check

    I've never understood why this is such a hot button issue... I do it when holster my edc in the morning. I don't think I'm doing anything bad ass or tactical... I'm not even thinking, "Time to press check!" I just make sure my firearm is loaded, as I already know that it is, holster up and...

    Spydercos are great knives. You can get a lot more expensive, but for my money the Paramilitary 2 is a must own. Of all the knives that have come and gone, the PM2 is the constant.

    Cabelas-SMH

    Places that carry high end knives in stock are fewwwww and far between. And honestly, I'd love to support them in general, and don't mind paying a mark up from online retailers but the gap between your normal knife websites (BladeHQ, Knifecenter, etc) and brick and mortar stores I've seen can...

    Cabelas-SMH

    Well "A Florida man...." is one of my favorite news anchor intros, something interesting is sure to follow. I don't doubt that ranges are putting these types of regulations in place in other states as well and really can't blame them. I believe one of the incidents took place in Ohio, so I'm...

    Cabelas-SMH

    Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I can appreciate there is a wider spectrum of hidden issues like insurance that make things like trigger locks/no cc necessary for some. However, it is my experience that they are used at larger corporate type dealers and I have never seen them in smaller more...

    Cabelas-SMH

    I will have to respectfully disagree. I will always choose to shop somewhere that doesn't seem to believe that people can't be trusted with guns. This holds true for gun shows that don't allow concealed carry. If asking to hold an unloaded pistol without a trigger lock warrants the clerk...

    Cabelas-SMH

    The Cabelas in West Chester, OH is the same as it has always been. However, once Bass Pro took over they moved to having those red trigger locks on all of their pistols. Ruined the experience for me. In their defense, I usually only used them as a show room for guns that my LGS doesn't have...

    Define "Collecting."

    I know I'm in the minority here but one of my joys of collecting is experiencing the options, finding my preferences, then narrowing my "collection" to a heavily curated small sample size. Whether it be knives or guns, I've had triple digits of both pass through my mitts to find what I really...

    Define "Collecting."

    It is a simple question with entirely too many variables and word play semantics to ever get a real grasp on subject. For me it's always been fascinating how logical conclusions about the amount of guns someone owns are often untrue. Having more guns than someone else doesn't make you more...

    One off Concealed Carry Stories

    Yikes, I live in Cinci area too, so hopefully I don't run into that cop... I can't understand for the life of me why introducing a firearm into a situation where it would otherwise go untouched is a smart idea. I can't imagine anyone who intended to do harm to a police officer would announce to...

    One off Concealed Carry Stories

    I thought it would be interesting to start a thread about one off concealed carry stories. Most of us, thankfully, carry without anything eventful happening. Let's hear some stories of self defense, guns falling out of holsters, interesting public/police encounters, ambulance rides, metal...

    HK P30 - Great... But No Soul

    Wow... At first I was going to say, Well I love my P30SK soul or not, but then you throw the 226 under the bus too, OUCH! haha All joking aside ( and semantics/posturing about guns actually having souls) the 226 has as much "soul, it factor, pizazz" or more than damn near any pistol on the...

    Are expensive 1911's range toys or serious CCW guns?

    I agree completely. My post wasn't about having to spend a certain amount of money to properly defend yourself. I was referring to the argument of not carrying an expensive handgun (that you presumably already own) in favor of a less expensive one because you would be upset for having do...

    Are expensive 1911's range toys or serious CCW guns?

    I agree 100%. If I ever have to use a gun in self defense I want my best option in my hand, not the one I am willing to do without during the investigation. I've heard that argument time and time again and always laugh to myself a bit trying to picture a scenario where you walk away from a...
