    Will my SKS do the trick?

    My 19x is always on me when off duty with a full 20 rounds. With the heavy clothing I’ll be wearing I’ll also have two spare 19 round mags. Considering these thread comments that looks like the way to go. If that doesn’t work that’s a really bad day and would mean the good Lord is saying my time...

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    Not sure, it’ll be my first visit. We’ll just be hiking but I will have my 4x4 4runner if I get the itch. The only caliber handguns I own are all 9mm but I can hit what I’m shooting at pretty well. I’ll be concealing my Glock 19x.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    I have no concerns. Just wanting some feedback. Anytime I’m wandering around in the country for leisure/fun I like to sling a long gun. I won’t be hunting anything. I’m not worried about the 2 legged varmits as I deal with those for a living.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    I’ve owned a couple 30-30’s when I was younger (and stupider). I should’ve never let em go. I may just borrow my buddies and get another one when I get the chance.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    Trust me, my sidearm is always on me as well. Can’t go wrong with a slung rifle plus a sidearm.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    I know they’re pretty similar in power. 30-30 seems much cooler though haha

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    I thought about bringing one of my AR’s but I wanted more punch. I’m LE so mag capacity shouldn’t be an issue. If it is we’re closer to communism than I thought!

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    I’ve got a buddy willing to lend me his 30-30. That seems like an adequate option.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    Not worried, just never go unprepared any where I go. Again, I wish I had more options but that’s what I’m working with this time around.

    Will my SKS do the trick?

    Merry Christmas THR, Quick question. I’m headed to CO soon with the family and we’ll be trekking through some country just to be out in some beautiful nature. I won’t be hunting but wanted to keep a rifle handy just in case we run into anything unexpected. Will my SKS be adequate? It’s the...

    Great birthday surprise

    So my bday isn't until this coming month. Last weekend my wife woke me up early on Saturday (I work a lot of weekends) and "ruined" my beauty sleep. She told me she wanted to take me to breakfast so I stumbled out of bed and off we go. As we're finishing our grubbing she say's "I have a surprise...

    Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

    double feed clearance

    "Why would you want to tap/rack on the first double feed?" I should clarify: On a FTF perform a tap/rack. If I immediately know it's a double feed I would lock the slide first then so on, etc... If it's simply a FTF because of a bad round, etc. then a simple tap/rack will get you back in the...

    double feed clearance

    Training is key no matter which way you choose to approach this (obviously). Like I said I'm pretty comfortable with my method but I respect different schools of thought on this. Another aspect to dealing with jam clearances is the simple but critical importance of getting off the force line...
