    Thinking about my next purchase

    Took two new pistols to the range today.

    I put some rounds through my new HK P30sk and Ruger LC9s Pro this afternoon, as well as my 9mm American Classic 1911. I've had the 1911 for a while, but put new micarta grips on it and wanted to get a feel for them. The two new guns both ran like tops with Blazer brass 115gr fmj, Atlanta Arms...

    Let's talk about 9mm pocket guns

    I have been carrying a 9mm 1911 or a CZ P07 9mm (The CZ was sold last week and HK P30sk is at my FFL awaiting pick up to replace it). there are times that I need to be very discrete, and drop a Kahr CW380 into a pocket holster or carry it IWB. I love the way the CW380 disappears and is so easy...

    Target critique wanted

    I want some critique on these targets. This is the second range outing with my Sig SP2022 9mm. The first trip was 110 rounds. This one was 150. I am still getting used to the trigger and a slightly modified grip to keep my thumb off of the slide lock. My first target of the day was 50 rounds...

    I took my new 'Dick's Combo' 597 to the range today and ran about 150 rounds through it. It ran 99.9% with Federal bulk pack and Winchester '333' bulk pack. I did have one round jam in the mag after I was done and decided to just dump a mag as fast as I could. My groups were tighter with the...

She wanted to go to the Outlet Mall in Dawsonville, which normally means I hang around with her while she goes to Coach, Burbury, etc and looks at designer purses. After way less time than usual, she claims to be bored and I...

    Armalite AR24 Pistol

    A few weeks ago I aquired a LNIB Beretta 92F Compact in a trade. It was in new condition and felt great, but I had a problem with it.
