For our local "low cost" gun shop, it was the distributors. The shop owner has built a helluva business over the years by taking the long-term approach, and I've seen him refuse to order from distributors when their prices rose to the point he thought it would damage his business / reputation...

I remember reading ( I think in one of Ayoob's books?) that the Black Talons penetrated too far before expanding - the later lines (like the SXT) were designed to open up earlier, so they're an improvement on the infamous Black Talons.

Been a few months, but I listened to a lawyer with SAF saying they had numerous cases lined up and ready to go, but they would probably wait for Trump's second SCOTUS nominee to be appointed. They're afraid if they go forward with the cases, the court may vote not to hear them, which means the...

FWIW, Dennis Tueller (creator of the Tueller Drill) absolutely hates it being called "The 21 Foot Rule", but the description is so prevalent that he knows it can't be stopped. (From a video interview with him on one of the many DVDs I was sent when joining ACLDN.)

Massad Ayoob interview discussing warning shots has just been posted at http://backwoodshome.com/blogs/MassadAyoob/2017/04/06/more-on-warning-shots/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MassadAyoob+%28Massad+Ayoob%29 The interview starts at the 10:45 mark - you can either...

Just got this from Massad Ayoob's e-mail. NPR's "All Things Considered" has a short article and streaming audio (3:50) about the possibility of warning shots being poised for a comeback. Police Warning Shots May Be In For A Comeback March 28, 20174:32 PM ET Heard on All Things Considered...

Folks, the squirrel gun issue was settled waaaaaay back! Despite some of the suggestions, I was trying to keep the cost down, so no pneumatics. Now methinks I should have just adopted a cat (no, I'm not a "cat" person). Someone either dropped off or moved out of the neighborhood and left a cat...

Just a few thoughts (based on feedback from some industry insiders): 1. Don't be surprised to see the loony left blaming any layoffs on Trump (everything's his fault for those that can't get over the election) AND possibly exaggerate such in an effort to paint the POTUS in a bad light (see, he's...

Not familiar with the Tru-Glo, but I have the following: Burris Fast Fire III - seems to be highly rated - I have one on a SIG 1911 22 and another on a Weaver 1 o'clock offset mount on my S&W 15-22 (it's a poor man's 3-gun rig). I have a relative that's a gunsmith and into competition - his...

That's fine if you can't multitask as she says she can't - I'm also not going to sit and listen to something for 2 hours unless I'm doing something else (driving, running errands, doing paper / computer work, etc.). Ye olde (much maligned) Zune has been a fountain of information over the years...

Just got back from a road trip and listened to it on the road - actually, I'm listening as I type this and have only 10 minutes left. It's 1 hr. 48 minutes long, and better than I expected depending on what you're looking for / interested in. A lot of the forensics is interesting, especially...

Huh? You don't have time to listen to anything for two hours but are going to read a transcript? Don't know of any transcripts - I download this (and numerous other gun related) podcasts to my Zune and listen to them when on the road, doing yard work, etc. Multitasking, dontchaknow...

To anyone interested, I just got this info from Massad Ayoob's newsletter. There has just been posted (and I just downloaded) a 2-hr. interview with George Zimmerman and Don West (co-counsel). This interview was presented 2-16 at a MAG-40 class, and offers evidence the mainstream media did not...

Manners tells me not to ask what you paid for it!? At our recent Friends of NRA event, a local shop owner (or more accurately, his wife, although he paid) got into a bidding war with a local town big wig and ended up paying $2,600 for it. This was my 3rd Friends of NRA event, and they did such...

Never let the perfect get in the way of the good. Maybe ankle carry is not perfect, but if it comes down to either ankle carry or not having a gun... Everyone is telling you the disadvantages about ankle carry, but none of the advantages. Some of the techniques mentioned in post #6 sound a...

I carry my S&W Shield in a DeSantis Die Hard.

What he said? I have numerous TRS-25's, but none on an AR (that I can think of). You might have been better off getting without the fixed front sight post is you knew you were going to install optics, but that ship has sailed. I have a 15-22 that I've set up like a poor man's 3-Gun rig. I've...

Ruger has been busy based on customer feedback - I like it! I was only mildly interested in them until they started coming out with the heavy barrel models, and the new ones have the updated trigger, which can be bought and installed on old units. I think all the teeth knashing in here over...

What kind of silencer are you getting? I'm assuming you want a .22 rifle, but I have a Savage 17 HMR that's a shooter. I also have a Savage 17 WSM which I haven't had to the range yet, but my AAC Element 2 is not rated for 17 WSM - have to use my Silencerco Sparrow which is rated for 17 WSM. As...
