My youngest daughter resides in Boca Raton and plans to carry concealed. She's looking for the good training that she knows that she needs, not just bs "classes" by self-styled but under qualified trainers. If there is anyone here familiar with Boca Raton and its environs I would appreciate...

If this innovation doesn't give the defender a definite edge, then I don't know what. https://youtu.be/TcfD02XYMjA

The tritium has faded in the night sights of three of my Gen 3 Glocks. They were all installed at gun shows years ago and this time I'm thinking of installing the new ones myself. There's a large number these tools available in the market and I'd appreciate any information/recommendation on a...

Just received my first ever holsters from my fellow Floridians at Vedder Holsters, for my G36 and the Bulgie Mak 9x18mm. Suffice it to say that I'm impressed by the fit, finish and design style of these very practical beauties. Retention is great, carrying is comfortable and well positioned...

I just read an open thread that identifies a K-frame revolver as a Combat Masterpiece shipped in 1956. The help given to the OT in that thread reminded me that I've never truly identified this K-frame that I bought used some ten years ago at a gun show. The grips are aftermarket of course...

I bought a Bulgarian Makarov some 7-8 years ago. Then I bought some Pierce grips, a Czech-made shoulder holster, an aftermarket firing safety, a loading tool and a whole load of spare magazines and a spare recoil spring, all from the Makarov.com store. These transactions turned out to be a...

Some years ago I bought a used, nickelplated S&W in .38 Spl. I'm primarily an auto shooter and therefore a bit of an ignoramus when it comes to wheelguns. All I know for sure is that it's a K frame. The number on the butt is K 239**6. It's got three screws on the sideplate and a pinned...

About a year ago I picked up several boxes of the title ammo, of which I've never heard before, at Bass's. Half the boxes were labeled to be used for practice (semi wadcutters) and half for "Personal Protection" (HPs). The latter are 115gr. and remind me a bit of the old Nyclad 9mmP rounds...

I live in South Florida and I've had a CCW license since 1990. Although I own several autoloaders, my carry gun has been a S&W 60 (a short bbl revolver, in 38 Special, of course :rolleyes: ). Given the climate, even my Sig P225 is a bit too big for comfort and my P7M8 too heavy (and too...

Do any of the handgun ammo from Russia and/or East Europe (read 9x18 Makarov, etc.) contain corrosive primers or other corrosive components? This type of ammo, including Wolf, have a different smell when fired than the ammo manufactured in the U.S. and Western Europe. Are they non-corrosive...

Anyone know of a good one, preferably an outdoors shooting range? I recently became an IDPA member but the only outdoor ranges in Miami and Broward are run by the county and you can only shoot in them under the supervision of rangemasters. Are there any ranges in which you can shoot more than...
