    Personal example of why I don't like the 1911 and a couple of questions.

    On Thanksgiving, I went shooting with my brother. I was trying out his M&P 9c in comparison to my trusty old G19. He suggested that I try out his Springfield MC Operator on the same drills. - Every time I pulled the gun up from low ready to shoot, I was looking through the back of the slide...

    Simplify, simplify, simplify

    Henry David Thoreau wrote that many moons ago and I have been trying to apply that to my life where I can. I have applied that to my gun "collection" previously, but now I am thinking about throwing another iteration at it. My 1st iteration was reducing from quite a few different action...

    Sell my Marlin 39a or not?

    Guys I have a Marlin 39a that I have had for several years. It is an actual Marlin, not a Remlin. It is very accurate and has a wonderful trigger and is a very nice looking rifle. But I really don't actually shoot it that much. (Maybe less than 200 rounds since I bought it) Just...

    Truth about Gun "Control"

    Prior to the invention of The Gun, the "Leaders" of the world were those who were physically strongest and who were the best the "combat arts" available at the time. Those who could also influence enough like minded individuals to work with them, became kings. Once these families/groups got...

    6 Round Challenge

    I have seen quite a few posts about different rifles for defense. Many people have questions about what gun/caliber/optic/etc. One of the tests that I personally did helped me a lot and I thought it might help some others make a decision or like in my case, discover some things about a...

    DPMS Lite Hunter

    http://www.dpmsinc.com/LITE-HUNTER_ep_154-1.html Does anyone own one of these? Fired it? Is it really as light as the advertisement says? If so, I think I have found my new hunting rifle. I can live with 8lbs sans optic. The other rifle on my short list was a Remington SPS .270 or 7mm-08...

    SCAR 17 & Larue PredatAR in .308 Observations

    This isn't a real review. I am not qualified to do one, but here are some observations that I noted yesterday when I got to shoot a SCAR 17 and a Larue in rapid succession. My brother owns both and he really sucks at sighting things in, so I usually do it for him. He picked up the SCAR 17 on...

    TA33 GH Observations/Review
