    Hiking and Backpacking Guns

    I spend a fair amount of time in Grizzly country and opted for a Ruger Redhawk with a 4.2" barrel chambered in .45 Colt as my trail gun. Outside of Grizzly country, I'd likely opt for a Glock 20 or 1911 in 10mm.

    Why Yell A "STOP" Or Warning?

    Most of the arguments for issuing a warning have to do with perceptions, real and imagined, that that warning will be a determining factor that the jury will use to brand the shooter righteous, and thus not guilty. It is a lawyer's argument,a s opposed to a legal one. There is a difference...

    Manipulation of a Rail Mounted Light Question

    "The Plano incident is more of a story of why you dont put your finger on the trigger in the first place instead of a finger having more than one job." Agreed. The incident in question was not a failure of any specific light technique, but of fundamental shooting doctrine; i.e. a Rule 3...

    Police Responsibility

    Where to start... In no particular order: No, the police do not play by "the same rules." Similar ones, but not the same. Yes, there are different dynamics (socially, politically, and legally) in play. The concept of the "totality of the circumstances" enters into play. Facts...

    glock 9mm or 40cal

    Glock's 9mm line is their greatest, the one which has arguably set the benchmark in the pistol world for reliability, durability and longevity. Its hard to argue against them, especially given the state of the modern ammunition industry. Their 40 s&w line consists of solid performers, though...

    Electronic Muffs?

    I double up MSA/Sordin Supreme Pro X muffs with Surefire Sonic Defender EP3 inserts and could not be happier. Cost? What's your hearing worth to you?

    shoot center mass

    "#2 Never point a loaded gun at anything that you do not wish to destroy." Rule 2: Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy. It does not say: Never let the muzzle cover anything until you are ready to imminently shoot, or kill, it. The point at which civilians...

    Rifle Tactic for Home Defense

    "We all know that a pistol or handgun would be better for this job." Another "no, we do not all know that" comment. Erik, who clears structures and prefers to clear structures with long guns and friends with long guns. Though granted, we all have pistols should we decide to transfer out...

    Red dot or reflex sight for CCW?

    What's not to like exactly? They allow for rapid and accurate shooting in a variety of positions under a variety of conditions. And... They compensate quite a bit for "old eyes." The answers to my question: Aesthetics, "bulk," and a bit of weight. The later two not being relatively that...

    Do you have to fight?

    The scenario presented is not a deadly force scenario. That there might be exceptions for some people in some jurisdictions does not change that for the vast majority of readers.

    Seecamp .32

    "The Seecamp is the Rolex of small pistols." This. They might not be the most practical or efficient, depending on how you define those terms, but they are well constructed and seem to collect more fans than detractors among those who own or have owned them. An "I might not want to fight...
