    So in reading all these range reports on here, other fora, and gun mags, I come across off-hand shooting quite a bit. With regards to handguns, what are the benefits of off-hand shooting? And secondly, is there a proper technique other than replicating what you do with your preferred hand when...

    New Dan Wesson CBOB! Had to do it.

    Hey all: So while searching for a compact carry 9mm these past few weeks, I casually asked my gun dealer if he had any Dan Wesson CBOB in .45 to look at. He said, "Come back in a few days. I have two on order." So 3 days later, I come in and ask if he has anything to show me and sure enough...

    Help me decide on a compact carry 9mm auto

    Hey everyone, I've been looking for a compact carry 9mm for a few months now and can't seem to make a decision. I'd like something thin and easy to conceal IWB on a 5'6" 175lb frame. I've narrowed my options down to single stack autos that fit my hand best. I've handled all the options in the...

    Surprise, surprise, I don't shoot .40S&W very well

    So any tips for a new shooter? Shot my first .40S&W today - a rented Sig P229. Being so similar to my P226, I was hoping the platform would give me an edge. However, at 25 feet, I was able to keep my shots on paper (an 8" plate target), but they were high and to the left. I expect I am...

    Shot my first 1911 the other day

    So I went to the range yesterday and saw they had a Taurus stainless steel 1911 w/ 5" barrel in .45. First time I ever shot both a 1911 and .45ACP. I loved it! I didn't do too bad at 25 feet - managed to keep a pretty good grouping. And the bang is so satisfying. :D Color me a noob, but now I...

    New Browning Buck Mark Hunter! Best Way to Zero Sights?

    Hey all: I picked up a new Browning Buck Mark Hunter for some fun at the range. So far, it's been a great gun. Feels natural in the hand and is fun to shoot! However, I think I need to zero the sights. The groupings are all together, but they are all a little left of where I aim. This doesn't...

Purchased my first handgun the other day - a Sig p226 9mm with Siglights, to be used primarily to shoot at the range and for home defense. Should be coming any...
