Thanks for the response and the recommendation. I had actually started both of these books but got distracted. As you said, they are more academic focused. One of the things I appreciated about...

About 2 years ago I purchased a CZ 527 Jaguar bolt action .22 Rifle. The supplied 10 round magazine would not feed. I tried adjusting several things on the magazine to get it to feed reliably and it...

I asked a holster maker if a holster could be made that "automatically" engaged the manual safety. Not to relieve me of my own responsibility in the matter, but as a "belt and suspenders" approach....

Thanks for sharing your impressions based on your experience. It is helpful in slaking my lust!

I noticed a couple instances when I was manipulating the CS in the store that the trigger pull got...

No doubt they shoot very nice but I came to a a similar conclusion after toying with them a bit. And I have had that “same” conclusion multiple times over the years so one would think I would just...

I have a few that I listen to regularly. Hardcore History has already been mentioned. My listening is generally while driving or working out.

The Rest is HistoryHistorians Tom Holland and Dominic...

As per usual, this place is helpful and learning has taken place. I had thought to look for a local watch repair place to give it a try.

This is my one watch, a Sinn U1 I have had for coming up on 15 years. Up until a few months ago I wore it ~everyday regardless of the activity. I like the overall look of the watch and the simplicity...

Our kid's school is currently on the annual week long 8th grade field trip to D.C. It is a cool place to visit. I imagine I would hate living there for many reasons but mostly the cost.

Crime has...

I’ll contribute a couple from the last few months in no particular order. I would recommend all of them but obviously it depends on your tastes

Thank you! I knew it was based on real characters but I had not explored that angle yet.

It looks like I'll have to purchase the Pretorians because I can't track it down at a local library.

Do not fear comrade, President Ho-Chi-Min has given orders.......to apply a policy of leniency towards all prisoners led astray by the imperialist capitalists.....

You can confess this error...

I just finished The Centurions based on some of the posts in this thread.

What a beautiful, awful, terrible, excellent book. If it wasn't a library book, I would have highlighted so many passages....

Their covers are generally excellent. I really like this one.

Not sure on your budget but my Volquartsen Black Mamba has a stupid name but it is easily my most fun pistol to shoot. My only complaint (other than the price) is the magazine only holding 10 rounds.

I think it is more hand position than related to the grip size. There were three of us checking out the gun and I was the only one that had the issue. My friend pointed out that I rotated my support...

Yes, my "strong" hand thumb is on top of the safety. The problem is the base of my support hand thumb which is underneath the safety.

I stopped by a local gun store that had a couple CS's in stock. I gotta say, it felt really nice in the hand. My friend had just purchased a used one that came with 6 magazines for $2100 which seemed...

I cannot speak to the latest/upcoming iterations of the 4 Runner and the GX, but a couple years ago when we were looking for a new SUV for my wife there was a "noticeable" difference between the 4...

Interesting.

I have not tried a 229 with a dot. But my previous experiences with trying a dot on different handguns have been failures (mostly due to a lack of dedication on my part). Whenever I...

My previous experience with the Sig P22X series is that I greatly preferred the 226 to the 229 in every respect. I shot the 226 more proficiently, the 226 was more comfortable to shoot, the 226 was...

Just in time for summer carry ;) I scored an AIWB holster from Tony Mayer ‘s clearance sale. It is impressive how well this holster conceals .45 Medicine and the smoothness of the draw. Must be the...

If you did not care for the G43X you will not like the G43. I found mine to be punishing and accuracy was a challenge. A G48 is noticeably more comfortable and more accurate in my hands than a G43

The thing that keeps me away from the 365 line is that there is currently not a SCD available for it. Yes, it is available with a manual safety. But in my handling of a P365, the safety design...
