Anyone have the opprotunity to try out the Blackhawk ISSAK rifle set-up? It seems to have the same design I use with regular LBE/web gear except with a few extras and the fact that everything is sewn in place. Would cost about the same as purchasing the entire rig in seperate pieces. Any...

I am looking for a simpler, rugged alternative to the AR and Mini-14 style rifles. I have been considering the SKS because of its low cost, un-complicated operation and maintenance, and reputation as a tough, reliable rifle. I have no experience with AK style rifles but I have had other friends...

Hey folks! Please bear with me...I am by no means a rookie when it comes to most firearms...BUT the AR stlye rifles are like alien technology to me! Here goes... Just bought a new AR style rifle...a DPMS Classic 16 (post-ban)...and I have to say that I'm a little overwhelmed. My first...

I am curious if anyone out there could recommend a good ankle holster for a Glock 19? I've found that ankle carry is the best concealment position for me at work and I need a good solid rig to wear. A quick draw isn't a major necessity in this circumstance ( I carry loaded mag, un-cocked slide...

So which is better for long-range (200-800 yard) accuracy? .308 or .300 WinMag. How would 'stopping' power compare on large (e.g. black bear, mule deer) game?

Stupid question: Does Colt still manufacture and sell the 'Defender' 1911? I thought they stopped making handguns? :confused:

Hello. I was hoping someone here would be able to reccommend a good place online where I can get a leather shoulder rig for my large frame Taurus 608 (4 inch) revolver? I'm having a lot of trouble finding any good holsters for it at all, especially since it is more of a 'hunting/sporting'...

Never had to use anything but original mags in my Glocks but I can't seem to find any nowadays with the panic shopping/Glock factory shutting down/etc. I was wondering if anyone out there has tried the USA brand mags in their Glocks? I am interested in hearing about their quality and...

Thinking of looking for a job with the Dept. of Corrections. No experience whatsoever on my part, just interested through an acquaintance who works for the prison in Sarasota. Just looking for any observations, experiences, or what I can expect from this sort of job. Any help would be much...

Hi folks. Went shooting again today and at just 15 yards my shots are still going low and left of target. I think this is because I am anticipating the recoil and either pulling the gun or jerking the trigger a bit. Does that sound about right to you? It seems like when I try to ignore the...

Got my first Glock today (G19) and I cant wait to take it to the range tomorrow before work. I've never fired one before but it feels great in my hand so hopefully I'll be able to hit paper with it. Anyway, bear with me here...I went and stripped it down into its five major parts and gave it an...

Just curious...anyone know if there is a mounted tac light type doohickie that could be put on a Glock 17 or 19 without any special modifications and without the accessory rail of a G34, etc.? Preferably something simple (=idiotproof) to intall and not too bulky or heavy...

Anyone here have any long-term experience carrying their Glock in a Sidearmor IWB holster? Just wondering how they stack up in terms of quality and fit. I am a little hesitant to purchase a gun holster made in kydex - I have had many knife sheaths in this material and some were very good while...

Does anyone from the southwest suncoast Fort Myers/Port Charlotte Florida area know where I can get some quick classes for basic shooting instruction which will also meet the requirement (provide the 'paper') for the state Concealed Carry permit? I am frustrated because I have completed every...

Most of the talk I see for 9mm ammunition is for the higher velocity/lighter bullet-weight loads like 115gr, 124gr +P, etc. I prefer the lightest possible recoil in all of my handguns while still retaining enough practical accuracy and bullet expansion for defensive purposes. So...what has been...
