    Light Bearing Handgun Training

    Hello all, For those of you that carry a handgun with a light attached, do you practice flipping the light switch when drawing? What I mean to say is, have you or are you practicing to develop a muscle memory to activate the light every time you draw for defense?

    Laser / Light Options for CCW

    Hello all, I have been looking around at laser options for my EDC, a M&P 9c and was looking for some input from fellow forum members. Before the M&P, I carried a S&W 637 (J-frame revolver) with a Crimson Trace laser grip (defender model) and loved it. When I originally picked up the M&P, it...

    Reloading Drill Question

    Reload Drill Question Hello all, I do a good bit of dry fire practice with my carry pistol (S&W M&P 9c) and use the same drills during my live fire practice. I draw from concealment and fire from different position and distances, trying to think of the most realistic scenarios without...

    Your M&P 9c is Catapult Safe

    That's right, I launched my loaded M&P 9c into the air, against a wall and then bouncing across the marble floor. Here's how it happened: My nightstand safe is a biometric safe that works using a thumb scan and a turn lock. After the lock has been disabled, a little knob is turned that...

    New M&P 9c for CC - Questions

    Hello all. I recently picked up a M&P 9c that I'm growing quite fond of and thinking this could become a year round CCW pistol. Should I decide to carry the M&P, it will replace my P239. The M&P 9c I received is a Crimson Trace model with the updated trigger and does not have the internal...

    In between cleanings - 10/22 and others

    Hello all, This week I shot the bejesus out of my new 10/22, a little over 1200 rounds between Friday and yesterday. There were only 4 malfunctions and I'm certain 2 were ammo related. Usually, I clean my guns after every shooting session; I consider it part of the ritual. This time I thought...

    New 10/22

    A couple weeks ago, I walked into the bedroom after work and on the bed was my very own Ruger 10/22 all weather model, a bx25 magazine and 200 rounds of Gemtec (?) Subsonic ammo. The wife had watched me fondle the very one on a few different trips to the lgs and decided to buy it for me. I had...

    Single Action Issues - J-Frame

    Good afternoon all. This morning I was out back doing some drills with the EDC (S&W 637) and once I'd finished up with business end of things, I decided to have some fun with a few long range shots (25 yards). Normally, for very slow aimed fire, I'll just stage the trigger; once in a while I'll...

    Hammer Bobbing

    Hello all. My model 637 is my constant companion, end all be all, perfect ccw. I love everything about it and have never owned a small gun that I shot so well. That's probably because I spend a lot of time practicing with it. When I go out shooting, other guns usually come along to entertain...

    Small'ish SA Revolver?

    Ever since the first time I saw a Colt Shopkeeper I've always been interested in short Barreled SA revolvers. It seems like most these days are simply a chopped barreled version of the full size models. My question, which SA revolver has the smallest and lightest grip/frame?

    WWB Bad Bulk Pack

    Back Pocket Carry

    I've heard some of the guys on the forum say they carry in the back pocket. How's that work? Are you guys on your feet all day? I just can't imagine sitting on a gun being comfortable or good for the gun in long run. So, who actually back pocket carries and what do you do about sitting? Thanks...
