Hadn't had my 10/22 out all summer but I decided today was going to be a .22 day. 150 rounds of smallbore therapy was just what Doc Ruger ordered. I'd forgotten how much fun that little gun can be. Good clean (well, sort of dirty...needs to be cleaned) cheap fun. Think I need another .22...

Shamelessly stolen from another forum: Cartridge Evaluation Worksheet --------------------------------------- 1. Your cartridge sucks because; (_) everybody has one (_) nobody has one 2. My cartridge is inherently superior because; (_) I shoot it (_) you don't 3. Cartridge X is a poor choice...

I do a lot of research before I spend money on much of anything. When I decided to start carrying concealed, I studied the laws. Then I studied the guns. Then I studied the holsters. The legal research was pure education. The gun research took more time. But what took the most time was the...

I want to carry my 5in 1911, so I've spent a good bit of time researching holsters and trying some on at a couple of local gun stores, but so far I haven't found anything that works for me. I've found some IWB holsters that are comfortable enough when walking around, but none of them allow me...

I've been looking at different options for carry ammo for my 1911 and ran across something from Federal called Guard Dog. Any thoughts on this round?

Yesterday I got my CCW permit. Today I went to the local range to rent a few handguns that I've been thinking of getting for carry. Two were revolvers - the Ruger LCR and SP101. I should note that up to now I've been mostly a C&R rifle guy and don't have much experience with handguns. Before...

About a month ago I applied for my Iowa permit to carry weapons. I've been calling every Monday to see if the permit has been approved; nothing yet, but last week the nice lady I've been getting on the phone told me that the one person who does the background checks had surgery and has been off...
