Handguns arn't just for shooting bad guys. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/story/2012-01-02/logan-canyon-river-rescue/52328646/1

The first part of Nov we took a road trip to OK to visit wife's mother. She comes out with a little Beretta Jetfire 25 cal pistol, Says she thinks its loaded, and doesn't know how to check. So I take it out side to check it out, sure enough its loaded, one in the chamber. I unload it and...

I've been a firearms trainer for a long time, LE, Military, civilian and I feel I'm fairly good at it. Having said that, like driving, I don't believe one can teach or provide training to his family members effectively. Like teaching daughters to drive. Dads/granddads just can't do it...

WASHINGTON — The District of Columbia has been ordered to pay more than $1 million in attorneys' fees as a result of a historic gun case that was ultimately decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. http://www.ajc.com/news/nation-world/dc-ordered-to-pay-1280320.html Hopefully a warning, now that so...

I love that movie, reminds me of my childhood, Only I didn't live in town. We lived in the country. My Aunt lived down the hill a short ways. The Red Rider: One Christmas Eve I got my BB gun, I had it taken away from me Christmas Morning. Living in the country there was unlimited targets...

Circle Park, Big Horn Mountains, WY

Let me start this by saying I'm not a Glock fan. I don't own one, nor do I plan on buying one. But. The other night at our gun club meeting, we got to talking about triggers and semi autos. So the guys dug up a bunch of different pistols which I dryfired (didn't shoot them, I just wanted to...

This is reference to an incident that happened in our local Law Enforcement Read Friendly fire: http://www.newslj.com/ You have to have a subscription for the whole article to come up. Basicly, a supposed firearm instructor was working on a department firearm, it says doing maintance but...

While setting around wishing you could go shooting, print this out, post it on your wall and using your UNLOADED carry pistol/revolver w/laser sights and dry fire. Keep doing it until you can constantly keep all the shots in the square on the bandits head. After a bit, print some more targets...

That will be me, or will in a couple weeks. Going to OK to visit my MIL who owns a small farm in eastern OK. She wanted me to thin out the turtles tearing up her fishing pawns. No biggie, I can handle that. Today she calls and says wild hogs are tearing up her hay and crop lands. Wants me...

About 12 years ago I had a Winchester M-70 action laying around and a wife without a low kicking hunting rifle (she broke her back and has three rods in it). So I built her a 243. She shot a couple deer with it over the years but hasn't shot it in about three or four years. I'm suppose to go...

Off duty officer shoots four, kills one, wounds three others. http://www.policeone.com/off-duty/articles/4448404-Off-duty-officer-thwarts-robbery-shoots-4-suspects/

Two Winchester Featherweights, one in 257 Roberts, one in 270 W. Havent shot them since last hunting season so I figured I'd dig them out for our Oct 1st oppening. Three six inch gongs, 100, 200 & 300. Using last years ammo and zeros, I fired 20 rounds out of each alternating between the...

I was watching the ShootingUSA TV show. The shooting tips portion had Sherri Gallagher talking about reading the wind. I'm not addressing that portion, (though she was right on based on my experience) but I want to address Follow Through and Position. Watch her shoot. Perfect prone...

I'm not in to bench rest shooting, but I got to admit this is some hard holding. Frenchman sets new 200 yard bench rest record, shoots a record .089 group using a 6mmPPC. That's pretty close to a one hole group, trying to measure a .089 group after using .243 bullets would be hard enough...

About 1976 I was working as a cop in Anchorage. I had decided to go Elk hunting on Afognak Island. A friend of mine and fellow cop said I shouldn’t go alone and offered to go with me. I asked if he had a rifle and he said he did, a 1903 Springfield. Before I made a commitment I wanted to see...

Got to reading a post about someone wanting a hand gun, but brand X wasn't on the California Approved List. Got my curious so I found the "approved handgun list" Some dumb questions popped up. The Smith Model 66 is on the list the Model 64 isn't ???? Huh??? I noticed all the guns have an...

I searched all my manuals and I don't want to drive 80 miles to buy another one. I need to know what charge of Red Dot for a 1 oz #8 shot, and what Mec Bushing. (I have a Mec 600 Jr.). I need the shells loaded by Sunday. Thanks

Alaska NG Eskimo Scout BN's. Sniper school, early 80s. Teaching these schools is where I really learned to shoot Garands.

I do a lot of action pistol shooting, IPSC, IDPA. ICORE, Steel, etc etc. Every other week our club has one of the above matches. I've been going over the results of my shooting over the last couple years and it appears I can shoot my M-64 revolver better then any of my autos, I can't load...
