686-2. Bought it used twenty years ago for PPC duty matches. Got me some pretty trophies with that gun (slicked up action).
I’m the odd duck here. J frame as primary. Blame it on retirement.
Hammer of Thor is more than just stuffing more powder in a cartridge case. Don’t forget that bullet weight makes a significant difference. Nominal bullet diameter is practically the same, but a 158...
I’ve cut two leather pancake holsters over the years. Decided that I didn’t need the thumb break retention anymore. So, out came the tin snips from the tool box. Eye balled where I wanted to cut...
Gaston must have used me when he designed the finger grooves on the G17 frame. Fits like a glove. No knuckle problems to report here. Been shooting the gen3 since 2002. Happy customer.
4/30/75. Seen this movie before. I wonder if they will play Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” ?

They offer just about every shooting discipline you could image. Membership fee is a tad high for me, but I know fellow shooters that are members there.
From a cost of living perspective, consider residing in SC and commuting into Charlotte. Retired now, but that is what I did. From a handgunner’s perspective, SC is way less red tape for...

Aker Flatsider XR12/13. OWB leather. The FBI cant is a little more aggressive than other holster makers, so my G17 is really pulled tight to the body. Legacy USCS approved for off duty carry (if...
Not so fast on your list of “modifications”. Really shoot/carry the gun “as is” for a period of time. Try different carry methods/holsters before taking that dremel tool to that hammer spur. Give...
Kenwood eh ? We had an off brand of walkie called Repco. Size and weight of a brick. The cars had GE radios in them. I longed for a department that had Motorola.

Slightly off topic, but the move towards constitutional carry across the country is one of the reasons that I decided recently not to pursue getting my certification as a CCW instructor. I reside in...
Any LE agencies still use low band radios ?
Wow, I barely carried one third of that stuff when I was on duty and in uniform.
Raven MP-25. Bought one in the mid 80’s for $49.95 OTD. Surprisingly reliable with FMJ bullets for a Saturday Night special. For that price, I just had to buy it.
For us geezers on PF, May 4th has a different connotation: https://www.kansascity.com/entertainment/arts-culture/article250930469.html
Many, many years ago, when I was living in the land of tall fir trees and white bunnies, I recall perusing a local hunting newspaper to pass some time. There was an article in there about two locals...

Old school, but comfy.
This is what I use. Harries & Mag Lite go together like peanut butter & jelly. Toss in a modified Weaver stance and you are retro 80’s as far as low-light engagements go.
Reminds me of another time when a President weighed in on a trial:...
