    My CCW arrived today

    Terry, I'm not sure I understand the logic. You feel you have better odds of surviving an incident without a gun than you do with a gun you may not be 100% familiar with?

    Anyone live in Boerne, Tx?

    I going out in a few weeks to checkout the area for a family relocation to get out of California and wondered what the gun shooting situatio is out there? Are there some good ranges in the area? Do most places let you have a range on your land? Thanks for any insight you can offer.

    Use deadly force?

    This is not the best forum to discuss H2H self defense. There is too broad an audience. That being said, I would have highly recommended you shout "Back off!" or "Stop!", I like "back off" better, with your left hand partially extended about chest height toward the two guys. That would have...

    What to do against a grappler...

    Having trained in firearm retention while wrestling or being tackled, I can tell you that when you try it out, WITH A BLUE GUN, you will quickly find that having an appendix carry will aide you in many ways while you are on the ground. It is much easier to defend. It is possible to draw...

    9mm: the latest advances in ammo

    "That business of "Buy 300 rounds" is definitely correct, but it kind of works against keeping up with the bullet of the month, when the makers charge a 50 price for a box of 20 superbullets. " I figure that when I've got thousands of dollars in guns, and few thousand dollars in training a...

    9mm: the latest advances in ammo

    "But, sifting through the various 9mm offerings is a big task and I'd rather have users point me in the right direction of where to look." Wheel, If you don't want to think for yourself then: Go get Corbon DPX +P 9mm. Buy 300 rounds and run at least 50 to 100 through each magazine...

    Response to Ebay banning gun related items

    Email sent Mr. Halprin, It is disappointing to note Ebay’s change on gun part sales. I’m sure you have heard many of the typical responses to this so I will avoid those by merely letting you know that more children have died on their bicycles than by guns in this country. More people have...

    I just bought some XS sights big dot and plan on installing them on my 686p 4". I am picking up the gun on Friday and so I have not had a chance to look at the sights. Does anyone have experience changing out the sights on a 686? Thanks

    California

    This is the bill I was talking about: SACRAMENTO — California would become the first state in the nation to require instant background checks on handgun bullet buyers under an anti-gang bill that cleared its first, key hurdle Tuesday. The Assembly's Public Safety Committee approved AB362...

    Police: Man held up at mall

    Marc MacYoung calls this the interview and it is a very common tactic used by criminals, though keep in mind that it is not always a verbal interview. Sometimes they are looking for just the right victim who isn't paying attention to his/her surroundings.

    California

    I posted something about an ammo bill that is trying to get passed in California right now that would require backgroundn checks on ammo and no internet sales to residents. I put it in the politics section but it can be found at nra.org.

    My take on the "double tap."

    What does the Wiggle mean? I'm finally getting the grip and stance right to have the gun recoil and come back down without me having to push, or bring, it back down. But I am noticing that it does this side to side wiggle as it snaps back down. It is more or less straight but wiggles as it...

    Practice at Range

    How do you practice for IDPA when you only have a slow fire range to shoot at? I can't even practice double-taps let alone draws, etc... Thanks

    Kimber Eclipse Pro II slide not completely closing

    Well, I took a Wilson 22lb recoil spring and cut one full revolution off. I think the mod worked well. No ejection jams and clean feeds once I used the McClintock Star mag. I'll put another 100 rounds through it and see what happens. Thanks for the help. BTW, I did do the slide off...

    Kimber Eclipse Pro II slide not completely closing

    I guess this can become my Kimber Eclipse Journal since people don't seem interested in chiming in... Replaced the stock recoil spring with a Wilson 10sc22 and the problem with the slide closing all the way is gone but now I am having a problem with the shell jamming in the ejection port on...
