Three of us spent last week chasing bonefish in the Bahamas. Had a great time. Caught fish from small ("that fish still has milk on its lips") to a big ten pounder.
Here's my largest, by...
I have several aluminum framed 1911s. Converted all to slim grips. First, looked to see if they are staked. Butane pencil torch will handle blue Loctite. Just look for a tiny wisp of smoke. That's...
The neck feathers of jungle cock, called "nails", are used in tying Atlantic salmon flies. The British apparently didn't wait patiently for the many months between the periods when the salmon...
I don't have any ivory, nor do I know of a source.
But I most assuredly want to see the finished product, please!
One great thing about the 3"×5"-ish sized paper is that it's almost exactly proportional to the USPSA A zone (6"×11", IIRC). So, the 3×5-ish card at 10 yards would be roughly equivalent to the 6×11...
You are pushing me over the edge to reserve my old P365 for occasional use and replacing it with a Macro! (Which actually will solve another problem, i.e., I shoot the G26.5 better than the 365, but...
Well, a couple of years ago, I was trying to separate some old furniture joints with a rubber hammer, hit my thumb, and came very close to using my P365 on the hammer - - - if going in that direction...
Camera bags make great range bags. And camera "people", never satisfied that they have the "right" one, keep looking - - - think of it as the search for the "right" holster. If you're fortunate...
I checked my 45C LEM. It's off center a bit. I'd never noticed that, and am pretty sure I'll not give it another thought. Best I can recall, this pistol has never had a failure.
Also checked a...
Long story short: Various vision issues (extreme near-sightedness, astigmatism, cataracts, etc.) Tried all sorts of fixes (glasses, contacts, surgery).
Go with the red dot. Prove it to...
You described that much more succinctly than the tome I was composing. ;~)
@RJ, so just pull back on the bolt, and if it moves freely, you're fine. If not, you're in a sticky situation. (Where...
This, and just shooting at distance. A friend JRV pretty much got me to shoot more at 25 yds, and while it was not altogether comfortable initially, I quickly improved. I did it mostly with a...
Just got my new Garmin (yes, late to the show). Made a quick shakedown trip to the local indoor range. Figured it would be somewhat of a tough test, as the shooting positions are reasonably close,...
Apparently, all the Subarus one sees in snowy-winter areas goes beyond the luxury car status Subaru gives their owners;)
(OK, yes, I have a Forester, and before that a WRX, and before that,...
In terms of the abundance of loadings and of availability (pretty much any small town store that offers any ammo will have some form of.22LR, 12 gauge and .38 Spl.), I'd lean toward the .38.

Ditto
Sounds like you have it covered (sorry).
You might have to replace a few sheets of plywood if the roofers find any soft spots. I'm sure they have one of those giant magnets to pick up any roofing...
I'd be all over a 1301 in 20 gauge.
I bought a P365 when they first came out (No worries then about which of the variations to choose; there was only the one), hoping it would be suitable for either holster or occasional pocket carry. ...
N=1, but I had some feeding and misfiring problems with the Federal Champion. The CCI Mini Mags have pretty much performed very well. Actually, I was trying various CCI super and sub offerings in...
If you don't plan to add an optic later, I'd go standard. But, if you do (which I did), and go with the add-on rail, the combo "works", but the optic's height results in the gun's presentation being...
Rich, I HIGHLY recommend you grab one. The grip angle, if not the sights, weight and general feel, is certainly 1911-ish.
I have the older MK III Lite model. Most definitely go for the Mk IV...
Re: the discussion back on p.100 about torque wrenches for low settings.
I bought a FIRSTINFO torque screwdriver that has a range of 2-12 in-lbs, and which has worked great so far for those...
Amen to that!
