    Optical sight on HK USP tactical 40

    I am looking to mate a Trijicon RMR sight on my HK USP 40 tactical. Does the Trijicon replace the rear sight natively or do I need to send it to a gunsmith or buy some sort of sight mount?

    Need help: I bought what I thought was a 380 ACP version of the Walther PP Super. Upon closer inspection - it is a 9x18 Police or 9mm ultra version. The seller lied to me. Can I fire 9x17 or 9mm Kurtz rounds through this gun? Failing that - where can I find reloading supplies for 9mm...

    Deadly force or no?

    Watched a variant of this in a movie - and am wondering what one should do in this scenario: You are walking along the street - when a heroin addict threatens you with a supposed "AIDs" infected syringe needle. You are trapped. The only way out is through the BG. Do you comply with demands...

    1911 poll - single vs double stack

    Like most shooters, I have gotten to know and love the venerable 1911 platform. I think the trigger is the best and the design is quite beautiful. I am thinking about another 1911, (the 2 that I currently own are double stack 1911s.) The next 1911's purpose is HD / CC. I have no problem...

    Anti-Gun Establishments and Personalities

    As I gun owner and enthusiast - I do my best to spend my dollars on businesses and organizations that are Pro-firearms.

    http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18022825/ Wow. I wonder what happened here. This is the 2nd shooting now in 2 weeks (CNN last week.) Does everyone have a plan of escape from their office space? (In case something like this were to happen.)
