    Just read a good book on this subject, called The Beast in the Garden. It discusses the increase in cougars around Boulder, CO, in the 1990s, largely due to an increased urban deer population and...

    I think volume will be highly dependent on training age. There’s no indication of training age in the study participants. New trainees, whose bodies are not adapted to stress, will see more...

    Oops, meant to include my weight, I’m around 195-198. Can’t seem to stay over the 200 mark. I’m 6’1”.

    I only care about my bench because I do aim to compete, and in that case, all three matter....

    Hit some new PRs during the week of my 30th birthday: squat 450, bench 240 (sucks), and deadlift 540.

  5. Hell of a TQ use story in today's local paper

    I figured it out pretty quickly, without using the instructions, so I’ll probably keep the tourniquet. I do want a smaller one for carrying, though.

    Edit: and I would like to see that study.

    Man, drawing the gun and keeping it hidden behind a leg or something seems like a really bad idea. Just makes you look sketchy to LE.

    Wouldn’t it be better to wait to draw until you’ve ID’d the...

    I like my Blue Alpha Gear Low Profile EDC belt. I wear the buckle at 1:30, to the right of my front right belt loop, to keep the stiff part of the belt on the gun.

    I’ll double check my top rounds for setback and maybe put them deeper in the mag. They do get discolored and I make sure to shoot them at my first opportunity but I’ve never had an issue.

    Caballo Flaco, makes sense. But if it won’t run reliably manually cycling, I’m not going to trust it actually firing, at least until I get to the range.

    Magpul 21 rd mag failure to feed

    I’d been carrying a Magpul 21 rd mag as a spare for my G19.4 and G19X, but after seeing a post (I think it was from JodyH) mentioning failures to feed hollow points from Magpul mags, I decided to try...

    That’s true for me too, especially when I’m with kids. They go to bed at 1930, so we’re not out after dark and we’re not in bad parts of town.

    Concealed Carry with Kids

    Something I’ve been thinking about: I carry daily, but I often have a 5 yr old and 18 month old with me - in a stroller, in a grocery cart, in a backpack, in my arms, in the car.

    Thanks for all the inputs here. I shouldn’t have said I’d replace the 43 with a 19X. They’re for different roles.

    I should probably give the 43 another shake. I do want to keep it for its size,...

    I know there’s a lot of good info on here, but it’s hard to find.

    If I search “G43” in the app, I get every single thread where anyone ever mentioned a G43. But if I search “pistol-forum.com G43”...
