My family doesn't leave firearms in vehicles; not a big deal, just don't want them stolen. We always saw (and this goes back to my great-grandfather) that if you were headed somewhere there might be varmints to eat or that needed killing, you would grab your favorite smaller rifle or shotgun and...
I had a similar thing happen, but it wasn't a cleaning issue.
A Glock 23 is my most frequent CCW. A couple of years ago, I took it to the range, blowing through all of the .40 in my bag, and loaded the mag with new ammo after I got home. Doing move and shoot drills that weekend, I went through...
There are three people involved and all three are wrong.
1. The Boyfriend: Shut dafuq up. If you marry her, you will have something to say.
2. The Daughter: It is the gun that your life will depend on. You choose the right gun for you, and tell Daddy and Boyfriend to deal with it.
3. The Dad...
Open carry as in "I've got 47 acres in the middle of nowhere with poachers, bear and an occasional rattler as thick as my forearm."
Also, I second Bypass' gratitude. Thanks for a great song, it has been a while since I've heard Marty Robbins.
My wife had a Kimber Ultra Aegis II in 9mm, but she didn't like the way it fit her hand. It is now my carry for when I am wearing ASU, suit or black tie. Shoots like a dream, breaks down with a paper clip. I would definitely recommend it for a lady's carry.
I have been looking around for a semi-auto in .45 ACP to replace my Ruger Blackhawk .357 for open carry. After a few range rental sessions, it has come down to the FNH FX-45 Tactical and the Glock 41. In performance, the FNH definitely has the edge, but the Glock is half the price, with cost...
Thank you for the insights. I will pass the news along. It has also helped me better select my future .45 purchase, though at this point I am strongly leaning toward the Glock 41. I understand that every red-blooded American male should be familiar with the 1911, so I will probably pick up a...
Thanks. His main complaint (and I agree that it is a problem) is that these night sights still leave you with a front post that is not illuminated. Any fix for that?
My eldest step-son called me last night to ask if I knew the best option for putting night sights on his Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec. I am at a loss, as I ashamedly have yet to own a 1911 of any model. Does anyone have suggestions that I could pass along to him?
My Bighorn 24 Gun Safe was just delivered from Costco a couple of days ago. $641, including shipping.
It can be converted to a tumbler lock:

They forgot the "technical shooter". You know, the guy with a range bag stuffed with every weapons tool and gadget known to man. Takes laser measurements of target range. Runs ballistics tables every time he switches ammo.
They also forgot me, the older guy in the jeans, t-shirt and new...
After two years of considering the differences between the Remington Versa Max and Beretta A400 lines, I finally pulled the trigger this morning after stumbling onto a 25% off sale. I went for the Beretta A400 Xtreme MAX4.
I have shot a buddy's Xplor, but not an Xtreme, and am looking forward...
That has been my experience. I used a Glock 23 as my CC for four years, never being happy with my groups at 15 to 25 yards. I kept it though, as a bag gun and if I am going to be in a nasty environment (dirt, rain, mud). It confused me at first, because a Kimber Custom II or my Kimber Ultra...
