    Most likely a stupid question waiting for a stupid answer...

    I was wondering. If I was sleeping in bed and heard someone trying to break in, and I got up to grab my gun, I realized that I would be in my boxers and wouldn't have a place to put my spare mag. (No, that place is not an option.) Does anyone have a clever idea for this dilemma? Something...

    Is there such a thing as the Glock of 1911s?

    Is there a brand/model of 1911 that is like a Glock in that it's relatively inexpensive (compared to other 1911s) and reliable? Or do you have to massage whatever 1911 you decided to buy with trick components then shoot a few hundred rounds to see make sure that it'll go bang everytime (sort of...

    Anyone familiar with K&N air filter cleaner?

    Is it just me or is Mpro7 the exact same stuff? Ever since I was introduced to Mpro7, I couldn't get over the familiarity of the smell and the color and consistency of it as well. About 12 or 13 years ago, I used to work at a speed shop and used K&N air filter cleaner quite often and one day...

    Leaving shells loaded in mag tube = bad?

    I heard that leaving shells loaded in the mag tube can create a bulge on the plastic shells which will make them really tight or impossible to cycle. 1. Is this true or false? 2. Has it happened to any of you? 3. How long can you leave shells in the tube before any ill effects? 4. Can...

    How many rounds down range before you consider yours reliable?

    I've put 500rds down range on my Kahr PM9 using WWB and haven't had a single FTF or FTE. I consider it to be reliable with factory range ammo. Locally, we can't use JHP at our range so the Speer Gold Dots that I chamber for carry, I have no idea how those will feed. But hopefully very well...

    Binoculars and one bad eye...

    I'm looking to buy a 10x binocular to spot hits at the range or maybe even for hunting. But my right eye is worse than my left and when I focus the binos, it's blurry on the left because I'm right eye dominant. Does anyone else have this issue? Do you just keep your glasses on when viewing...

    Favorite polymer .45 ACP?

    What's your favorite polymer .45 ACP pistol and why? The reason I ask is because, if I could ever find some ammo, I'll be in the market for one. In my neck of the woods, FNP45 and HK45 are not on the DOJ approval list.

    Are HK's just as reliable as Glocks?

    I've seen A TON of Glock torture tests online and I know without a doubt that they're literally bulletproof. I own a fullsized HK USP 9 and got me wondering if my HK is just as tough and reliable. It almost seems as though HK's are a boutique brand compared to Glocks and I can't really find...

    How do you keep your HD shotgun?

    Part 1 . Do you keep it chambered, only mag tube filled, nothing at all inside the shotgun with ammo only on a side saddle, nothing on or around the shotgun with ammo kept somewhere else like a dresser, lock on the trigger, etc? Part 2. Do you keep your shotgun in a safe, under the bed, in...

    CorrosionX - Good lubricant?

    Anyone have experience with this stuff? I've been using it for the past couple hundred rounds in my USP9 and am wondering if I should use a dedicated lubricant instead.

    Sling & Mount Dilemma (Single Point) for 870

    I want to get the simplest sling and sturdiest mount mainly for range and home. As for simplicity, I'm leaning towards a single point. And beefy mounts such as GG&G and Tactical Link. GG&G Tactical Link The sling is what I'm having a hard time deciding on I guess. The new Magpul...

    Is there a way to non-permanently black out the rear sights?

    I have an HK USP fullsize 9mm with the standard sights. I would like to try and black out or gray out the rear sights but non-permanently. I need it to be completely reversable with little or no effort. I thought about crayon but I'm not sure that it'll come off easily and I'm afraid that I'd...

    Grouping at 7 and 11 yards question.

    I shoot at a local indoor range and shoot an HK USP9 Fullsize. There's a line at 7 and 11 yards. What's considered "good" grouping at 7 yards? And how many shots are considered a "group"? :scrutiny: Thanx guys!

    Is a 20" barrel sorta long for home security?

    There's a Remington 870 12 gauge 20" barrel with 8 shots for $329 on sale and an 18" with 7 shots for $399. I went in looking for an 18" but saw the 20" for $70 less so that got me thinking. Is a 20" barrel too long for home security use?

    My vision gets blurry when I focus too much.

    Hi my name's Steve and I'm a new shooter. I'm right eye dominant. I wear prescriptions glasses to shoot. My right eye is worse. I can pretty much do my day to day business with my left eye but my right eye is pretty blurry. It's worse at dusk and twilight as well as in buildings such as...
