I thought the 90's was good for S&W, given the strong sales of their 3rd Gen pistols (I don't do .45 anymore, but I don't know that I'd turn down a 4586 if the opportunity presented itself). Ruger, however, was not my Xmas list, given Bill Ruger's public distain for the AR/AK platforms, his...

I've been shooting a loooooong time, and I've put countless rounds down range. I'm confident I can ring the 500m plate (the furthest my range supports) consistently w/ my Mosin, I'm confident I can clear a FTF/FTE very nearly automatically, I know I can draw, point, and hit center mass @ 25ft...

Most of the gun shops around here carry the same inventory - Glocks, S&W M&P, AR-15s w/ rails, lights, lasers, foregrips, & can opener, etc. I go to the gun show to see something new and different, or older and scarce. The ammo deals are usually pretty good around here, too. But also, I...

Anyone know what the grips are made of on this PT22 and who makes something similar for other guns? I think this would look pretty sharp on my Bersa.

"What engineer thinks a pistol with the words "Grip Zone" is a good thing?" His last effort, "FRONT TOWARD ENEMY", seemed to go over pretty well ... My vote goes to the PHP MV9. To me it looks like Megatron got stuck as he began to transform to robot form, or a Beretta 92 & Walther P-38...

I can find no fault with Torgey's post but I would add that IMHO, the _only_ reason the President hasn't already tried more gun control is because he knows he wouldn't get any traction with it. That said, Romney is no better in my opinion. No, he won't push for more restrictions, but if he had...

The same can be said of the MN-91/30. Oh wait, that's the muzzle blast. Never mind.

I wonder if they'll advertise this stuff in the World War Z previews? Of course that's not 'til Dec '12 and since the Mayan calendar runs out before then, well ...

The "photo-op" didn't look like it was supposed to be high profile so I don't think the SecSvc was strip searching anyone. My guess - they'd probably keep a discrete eye on you to make sure you didn't get too close to FLOTUS, but I doubt you'd know you'd have been 'made' or that they were there...

Very cool. I'll have to get one for the coffee table (where the wifey will be tempted to read it while I'm not around :wink: :wink: ) @Sam1911 - +1

I think you did fine. You aren't going to change an anti - it's a process of self-discovery if not self-preservation. Which reminds me of one of my favorite jokes: How many psychiatrists does it take to change a light bulb? ... Only one; but it really has to want to change. [badum bum!]

That's all completely true. However, the phrase, "assault weapon", to use politically correct terminology, is bigoted. Just like any derogatory word used to describe gender, race, creed, or sexual preference, it transmits both what the sender means to describe AND what the sender thinks of that...

I love optimists ...

The wandering deer stories reminded me off an all-day shoot at the squad-weapons range. From 0700 to 1800 everyone in the battery got to take his turn lighting up the M60 & the Ma Duece; we had our full complement set up side by side. We put thousands of rounds down range. The only thing on that...

My first handgun was a FEG SMC-380. Like most guns of its class the slide comes off by pulling down on the trigger guard and pulling the slide all the way back and pulling it up and off. I did this little exercise at the indoor pistol range (where there is no hot/cold call). Satisfied that...

Well, he couldn't have been bent about losing business then. Maybe it any deals going on in his store would incur the wrath of the BATFE? Still, that kind of "customer service" doesn't get overlooked easily ...

Excellent! Forwarded to all my gun buddies.

Thanks for the range report. I like the look of them. What ammo were you using?

I love living down here in southern AZ. Not only is OC legal out here, it doesn't raise many eyebrows either; someone (ok, me) might ask, "what holster is that?" Of course, I'm about 30 miles from Tombstone so we'll occasionally get guys (and ladies) shopping at the supermarket in full 19th...
