I was toying with the idea of building a Roland-like pistol, so I got suppressor-height Trijicon sights with a black rear for my Gen5 G19 MOS.

Are we talking NRA Service Rifle where shooters typically use a sling in every position other than standing?

I feel like we’re missing some context here.

The speaker in the video is a former Tier-1 guy with almost superhuman shooting ability and a very realistic understanding of what he and his gear can...

When I was a very young boy, I got to see Bill Jordan run through his standard demo. He was hitting aspirin tablets with wax bullets out of a K-frame S&W at about 15' from the hip at what seemed like...

I'm not saying it's 100%.

I hope you're right, but I think there's more to it.

The revolver market had been in decline for decades before the unrest of the COVID/antifa years created a bunch of new but reluctant gun...

The difficulty of getting an ad-agency job is legendary.

I went to Catholic school so I’m basically Rain Man with spelling and punctuation. After I got out of the Army, I stumbled into a...

I second the experience of buying from Enterprise. Great cars, great prices. The only downside is that they keep trying to sell me additional cars long after the sale.

At the moment, I have 27k...

Happy to help. LMK if you have questions.

The 35 Whelen was very viable for nearly a century with conventional powders and bullets. Traditional data tops out ~2,400 fps with a 250-grain bullet. That's plenty of punch and reach for the...

Agree 100%. Those guys weren't just walking the streets, they were teaching school, selling insurance, pumping gas, building bridges, raising kids, and just generally being part of everyday life....

Seattle and Portland are both ripe for this kind of thing, but the rot in both City Halls is still so deep that a citizen patrol would probably be arrested and charged with hate crimes before they...

I'd treat it like a Mauser. Without bedding, tighten the front action screw farmer tight. Do the same with the rear, then back it out 1/3 to 1/4 turn. If you bed it, then bed the action and the first...

Somebody on the naming committee over there has a sense of humor.

There are worse options than the Remington 700 Youth Model made in the 2000s.

The only thing I have from my birth year is my body. Given how it has held up, I'm not sure that I want anything else that old.

But I am wearing a Benrus field watch from your birth year. It...

I’ve gotten to the point where I use a 308 or 30-06 for everything. I grew up on peep sights and I spent years going down rabbit holes on them before I learned a few things:
Optics are superior to...

Match rules define how you compete against other shooters. You can't ignore them, but you can add rules and compete against yourself.

For instance, in my first IDPA match, I got mostly -0 hits...

The cool thing about this rifle is that it's built from standard parts combined in a non-standard (until now) configuration. It looks like battue sights can work pretty well with an optic.

Battue...

Plus there's the six-month migraine required to make all of that stuff happen. Hard to put a price on that.

Um, no. Not by the standards of mortal men.

You're laying them in there at 50 yards using a J-frame equipped with sights that don't lend themselves to precision at distance.

I think the change to realtor's commissions is just the beginning of the change that's about to hit the real-estate industry. There's no longer any need to research titles manually and no reason to...

I've had to good fortune to work with two realtors who absolutely earned their commissions.

A good one helps you mitigate issues before they turn into lawsuits. For instance, some of the...

Slug the barrel, then give Montana Bullet Works a call, and follow their advice. They'll get you fixed up.
