Back when I decided I wanted a lightweight 5" 9mm, nobody made one. A SA Lightweight .45, a Loaded 9mm, and a trip to FLG left me with a lightweight 9mm and a steel .45 which I sold...

Good to hear.

At a match there June 2017 I passed out on Stage 5 and spent the rest of the day in ER.
Temperature in the 80s, I THOUGHT I was adequately hydrated.
My M&P .22C is handy and reliable, but it is light, twitchy, and dinky.
Similar to G44, Taurus, Sig, and Walther plastic .22s.
A full size .22 from Browning, Ruger, or Smith is a lot easier to...
I no longer have the mojo for a dozen stages but four friends from here are going.
Ridge Crossing, Guntown, MS is not shooting that day because a number of their regulars are going.
I am sure you know that this is an unusual case of Remington starting with and making more .380s. The .32s are a lot less common.
I am sorry I sold mine because it would not feed hollow points....
A friend’s real WWII Mauser HSc .32 was reliable but had a notably tough DA. I don’t know about the post war commercials, I think made in Italy.
Another guy’s Sauer 38H was smoother… but not...
Tom Givens’ May newsletter describes his practice regimen, a series of drills and standards done once each.
Looks like less shooting, more money than GSSF.
I was at a local shoot I call Non-Glock.
Same CoF as GSSF (indoor)but any gun.
I had an exciting morning advancing the date on my four analog watches to May 1.
A friend urges me to get an Apple for its Fall Warning app.
Not a whole lot.
One mug for breakfast, one at midmorning IF with friends, cola or iced tea for lunch. Half a bottle of green tea at supper, or decaf coffee.
Darn. I had a college classmate from LaBelle. Then known only as the home of a fictional presidential candidate.
He is now retired in Petaluma, California.
A bill has passed - but not signed into law - to allow Tennessee School teachers to go armed.
The Left Liberals and their Media Minions have of course gone into apoplexy.
My actual Tennessee...
A friend got some 115 gr Fiocchi and found that it would not function all his pistols.
I brought out the Xero and found that it had a spread in velocity of over 100 fps. It did not average very...
A "hammerless" double generally cocks the locks upon opening and if fitted with ejectors, they are cocked on closing.
There have been guns cocked by the top (or bottom) lever but there are only a...
If a plain extractor double is all you have, it would pay to use CAS technique. SASS does not allow ejector doubles so we polish our chambers and learn to give the gun a jerk as it opens to flip the...
I don't see a problem with the rear sight. How would you make it less "bulky" and still have it the right height?
I don't know what you mean by "cut and reuse the left side manual safety."
It...
I am just not a YouTuber. Could you manage a couple lines of summary like
"Joe Schmuck likes/found fault with the Brand X."
I had a Remington 1903 in a 1922 stock with Lyman sights faked up to look like a Springfield Sporter.
For the usual reasons of "preference" it shot well with the 130 gr Speer varmint bullet.
I trust you are talking about the Ramjet + Afterburner setup.
The key phrase is now "Compensated and ported barrels that are incorporated into the firearm."
That is vague and wooly and leads to a...
He also had range gates he thought suitable for different methods, working out from hip, to point, to aim.
Sorry, I no longer have 'No Second Place Winner' to get the numbers.
Fictional scene, but I think it applies:
"Can you shoot somebody to protect your party?"
"Yessir."
"You answered that awful quick, Mr Renner."
"Sir, I made up my mind on that a long time ago."
That might be me. Standing for any greater length of time is a cacophony of back and leg pain.
But if you consider the age and installed base of some of the calibers above .30 SC, it doesn't seem so bad.
At least .45 GAP isn't in the top 20.
Just getting into Toxic Prey. Agree with your observations. Seeing a lot of tough, mean women.
My IDPA protege is subject to random misfeeds, which she blames on her hold.
Maybe so, I have tried her with different ammo and different recoil springs with no improvement.
Not often but always...
