    New favorite ccw

    I've had a lot of pistols in the last 20 years. I found one recently that I am absolutely loving -a Kahr pm9. I cannot believe how well recoil is controlled with this one. Full disclosure, I did put a hogue slip on over the grip. Still and all, if I didn't know it wasn't a 380, I would think...

    Savage 11vt

    I have a bone stock 11vt that off a bipod on the bench can shoot in the .44 area center to center at 100 yards when I do my part and the stars align. The rifle caliber is 223 and the best groups are with handloads. I haven't had the opportunity to stretch farther than that yet but plan to. My...

    300 ammo question

    I went to the range with a few different rounds today: 1. Hornaday Black 110 grain 2. Winchester Deer Season 150 grain 3. Remington OTFB 120 grain. I used the remington to get the scope on paper at 25 and 100 yards. It grouped very well. I realize it is probably not ideal for deer but maybe ok...

    So, the older I get....

    The less inclined I am to carry a heavy gun. My previous favorite carry was a S&W 64-2. Now, closing in on 50, I am much more inclined to carry my LCP or Micro9.....I'll never get rid of that 64, and carry it still on a much more limited basis, but I think it's days of EDC gear are...

    36 no dash and +P

    A gunsmith advised against running +P in this, but I was under the impression that any S&W with a Model number was made after the 50's (This one is 1969, same as my birth year) was safe to do so, and that +P levels of today are well within the standards of even standard pressure loads. My take...

    will i destroy this scope?

    I have a Simmons 22 mag scope 4x that has absolutely beautiful clarity.I want to mount it on a Stevens 200 .223. Will this destroy this scope or can it handle the minimal recoil of the .223?

    i need a link to a scarleta article(Shooting Times)

    I think! It is called "an old revolver gets a new lease on life" and it deals with some modifications to an old m10. I have tried to peruse the archives of ST.com to no avail. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

    19-5 Square butt to round butt?

    I have the opportunity to have it round butted for $50. I like the gun with square butt, however I am intending to CC this 4" revolver. I don't really worry about the resale value as I intend to keep her. Is there any other reason to keep her square? Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated.

    223 100 yd zero question and scope question

    I just ordered my Savage Stevens 223 from Wally world, and am getting millet rings, weaver bases, and I (think) I want a Simmons 3-9X32 Blazer scope, or a 4x32 same. I want the 32 mm Obj because I want it to sit as low as possible. Is there any reason to go with a fixed 4 over the variable? If...

    Driving a new Kahr!!

    I came into one of the pistols that has been on my short list for awhile now...a Kahr K9...for $300!! In my neck of the woods, such deals are unheard of! It is the blued model, and it looks as if the bluing on the cocking serrations is going to need a doing, but other than that it is in very...
