Hello All, I am a High C-class/low B-class USPSA shooter and have been using my Desert Eagle 1911 G (government model 1911) for the past three years. I have put close to 10,000 rounds through this particular gun in the past three years, and attained my level of skill with it so I am hesitant...

Hello All, I purchased my first Government model 1911 back in 2010 (Desert Eagle 1911 G, dead nuts reliable) and have since made great strides in my shooting ability with it. I made the decision when I purchased my reloading set up instead of buying a new gun to shoot the guns I have a lot more...

Hello All, So, my LGS had a buy 3 get 1 free deal after black friday and I like supporting them, so I spent a few bucks there. I was headed to the range later, so I bought some .357 Mag ammo for my Ruger LCR. All they had was high priced specialty defense ammo for like $40 a box, and I saw...

Hello All, I am pretty new to reloading. Started out about 1.5 months ago, but have been reading up on it for about 2 years. Deployments and moves kept me from buying a press until recently. I have reloaded about 600 rounds of .45 ACP and am happy with my methods and practices with that...

Hello High Roaders, I have long wanted to reload due to the price of ammo for training, but I have a question you more experienced reloaders might be able to answer for me. I only shoot about 200-400 rounds a month and don't mind doing something slowly if it means it gets done right, so...

Hello All, Just a quick question for ya'll. I'm currently in Afghanistan and the unit I'm with was lucky enough to get a couple more M14-EBR's in a couple days ago. The armorer knows I'm a gun nut so let me watch him take them out of the box they came in. Included in the box was...

Hello All, I recently decided to take the plunge and put an RFB on order from my local LGS. Luckily, I have about 8 months left in Afghanistan...which probably lines up with the wait time on an RFB pretty well. SO, I thought I might as well get started on the suppressor idea I had as well...

Hello all, Let me first start off by saying I am an active duty Army Staff Sergeant with a looming deployment to a country ending in "Stan". My Commander is a generous sort and is of the opinion that if you want to add to your issued weapon some different optics or accessories more power to...

Hello All, In personal news I just moved to Alaska and am enjoying the relative firearms freedom here. I even went down to the local Anchorage SOT dealer and drooled at his MP-5's and such...and then I remembered...I like suppressors, and they're legal where I live now. Woot! So, I just...

Hey All, I'm active Army and will soon be PCS'ing (moving) to Fort Richardson, Alaska. I usually carry either a Glock 22, Glock 23, or a government model 1911 here in WA because it should be enough to take care of most "bad things". My dilemma is I want a revolver that is powerful enough for...

Hello All, For background information I am 21 years old, active army (artillery, 13D), and an avid pistol fan. My pistol ownership so far has been: -USP9c w/ LEM Trigger (crap sights, crap trigger) -SW MP .45 full size (hate the trigger) -High Standard 1911 Officers model (small, heavy...

Hi all, I understand that any advice I get here would be worth exactly what I pay for it, but I had a quick question. I shot an email to USAA (my insurer) with a similar question, but here it is. I am renting my duplex and I wanted to make sure that the landlord and I were on the same...

Hello all, I am about to return home from Iraq and will be getting into as much practical/fun pistol shooting as possible. IPSC, IDPA, Steel Challenge, etc. With that, my primary arms will be a Glock 22 (Gen 2) and Glock 23 (gen 3). Both have stock barrels, with the 22 having a ding in the...

Hey Everyone, I recently applied for and received my CPL in WA and was looking in a gun store for some quality .40 SW carry ammo and was dumbstruck when I saw Winchester Ranger SXT for $23 for 50! I grabbed a box and some other gun stuff and checked out...only to find it said in smallish...

Hello All, I apologize if this question has been asked before but my quick search didn't turn up anything. I will be returning from deployment to Iraq here in the next two months and after being settled in to my apartment with the wife, want to get in to some competitive shooting in the...

Hello All, Just thought I'd share my experiences with my recent purchase of two sets of VERTX tactical pants. I ordered one pair black and one pair khaki. I paid Around $40-50 per set but I am sold. PROS: +Very comfy. Make sure to order a size larger if you're going to carry IWB, but even if...

Hello All, I just recently lucked in to a Glock 23 with the grip frame mods I was looking for in the right price range so I jumped at it. I have limited experience CC'ing but I have a pretty good idea of what kind of holster I want/need. I was wondering if you guys could help me narrow it...

Hello All, I am currently serving in Iraq but will promptly be applying for my CCW in Washington state while on leave in April (coincedentally my 21st birthday as well) and would like to prepare accordingly. I already own a Gen 2 G22 and am fine with the grip size of that firearm. I am...

Hello All, I am currently deployed to Iraq (again) and this time I am not benefited by being in an Airborne unit (82nd Abn Div last time) so my life rests on a trusty musket...errrr....M16A2. My job is changing soon from a comfy Fobbit position (did convoy's last time, my turn to relax :P )...
