    Contemplating Para-Ordnance

    I'm contemlating picking up another P-14, and was wondering if they still use plastic main-spring housings and plastic mag catches out of the box. My circa 1997 P-14 had both when new. Also, I'm reading that recent manufacture mags have spring issues. My current mags have gone near on 10...

    Taking a new shooter out tomorrow

    I'm gonna go over the 4 safety rules, proper sight picture, weaver stance, and start him off on my 22/45. When he gets comfortable with that, I'll start him on my 686+ loaded with .38 special wadcutters. We'll take it by ear after that. What am I missing?

    Florida CCW application question (training requirements)

    I was debating putting this in L&P, but ultimately, since the question concerns training, I put it here. Mods, move at your discrecion. Anyway, I'm sitting here, filling out the non-resident Florida CCW app, and I'm stuck on proof of training. I haven't ever attended a NRA course, but I have...

    New handgun: CZ-40B

    I went shopping today, looking for something to use with my newly minted CCW permit. I was looking at CZs (I like the slide in frame look), and made a comment about liking Novak sights, due to my Thunder Ranch training (operate slide with left hand, grasp over the top. All slide manipulation...
