    Re-evaluate CC

    For the most part, many carry small guns. I prefer to carry a 38 in +p as a minimum since the 380 typically won't break a pelvic bone (if you agree with Masaad Ayoob). I personally have no clue but will go with his recommendation. I make that decision with the understanding that anything over...

    New Angle to Gun Banning

    Here's a new twist at gun control I was reading about in NRA-ILA. This is a cut/paste from their email: Initiative 594 is a gun control bill being falsely promoted as a “Universal Background Check” measure. In reality, I-594 is a universal handgun registration scheme being promoted by a very...

    Tula 1932 Hex Mosin Nagant (Star)

    Bought a MN and have it torn apart to clean it thorough in a few days. Ordered the bolt tool to check the pin along with the go, no-go, field gages. I want to put a scope on it but will wait until I find out if it's a shooter. So have a few questions for the MN: 1) What was your Mosin group...

    Bullet Feeder Die Recommendation

    Thinking of adding a bullet feeder die only to the mix. No real need for one, just want to play around with it on the Lee Classic Turret. The bullet feeder will only be fed with a clear plastic tube. Any preference on which one to choose? Any negatives about them? Thanks for input.

    Powder Baffes on eBay for cheap

    Came across the Hornady powder baffle on eBay (2 for $10.40 after tax and shipping). For those that are new to reloading and your powder measure didn't come w/ a baffle, this might be for you. The 2" diameter baffle should also just fit inside the Lee Precision Powder Measure which is just...

    Gun Wrapper

    When a new pistol is purchased, it is usually wrapped in a plastic bag prior to going into the box or plastic case, etc. Cabela's gun safes have holster style storage pockets on the door made for pistols. These pocket holsters will eventually take on the smell of gun oil from any residue left...

    PX4 Storm Full Size Type F 40 Cal Feed Ramp

    Has anyone ever had the PX4 40 cal come back from the Beretta repair with a polished feed ramp? If so, was it super shiny? I don't have any problems but want to polish the feed ramp on mine since it is coated w/ some black stuff since it came out of the box and doesn't feel very smooth like one...

    Anxeity at Shooting

    I was asked a question that I have no idea how to resolve and not give the typical male man up response. A husband took his wife to the shooting range to introduce her to shooting. She never made it part way thru the "this is the isle where we will shoot." She started crying from just the...

    Freedom of Speech

    When you research freedom of speech and freedom of expression, they are seriously tied together. Seems the guns people buy are a form of personal expression as well. People that buy guns like to modify them, carry them different, buy different guns, etc. Again, all forms of expression. So...

    PX4 Full Size .40 Cal Lube

    I have been using Break Free CLP to spray the gun as a cleaner/oiler for most of the gun followed air compressor. I still do the Hoppes #9 for the barrel followed by light gun oil last inside the barrel. I then oil the metal/metal parts with a heavier gun oil. I keep the quantity of rounds...
