Absolutely helpful. Great photos too (consistently nicely exposed and sharp).
Thank you!

I had a Colt New Agent with the gutter/trench sight. The only way I could shoot it reasonably well was by just indexing the gun. Trying to "sight" using the gutter just wouldn't work for me, at...
NC spends all its time in-fighting over Eastern (vinegary) vs Western (ketchupy) BBQ that there's no time to consider what's available in the rest of the country. It's all good! Just don't forget...
Thanks very much. I like that bag.
Looks like the start of another day in the office. Who'd have guessed there was other than your laptop in there?
(Asked because some years ago, wife and I...
At range yesterday with RMR'd Ruger .22/.45 Mk III. Winchester 40gr bulk ammo at 25 yards. My best group (ever, actually), a 9-shot, 10-round one (one misfire), something less than two inches. But...
How's that shoulder strap for hoisting all that weight? OK for a quick walk from house to car, car to office, etc, I presume. Perhaps not something you'd want to use for couple of miles walk?
...
Ditto. I don't use them much any more, but fully appreciate the "thoughtfulness" of the LEM trigger. Plus, of all the rounds I shot through them, I don't recall anything breaking. And I'm a fan of...
I'd add that no, classes aren't the only way, but . . .
Often, people learning on their own just don't know what they don't know. Said another way, they don't know when they're doing something...
Been out of the house. Back, and . . . "Out of stock"
Shucks, but thanks!
I'm (vaguely) recalling that the shelf life of blue Loctite is two years unopened, one year opened. Equally vaguely, that max. cure time is 24 hours, with shorter times at higher temperatures.
...
Well, I'd offer that when I have removed ANY of my red dots put on with blue Loctite, they've all been tight and required some solid (but not excessive) pressure to break the screw threads loose. ...
I've tried a bunch of lubes over the years. No quantitative testing or data, but have standardized on the Lucas Extreme, primarily because it works, it stays there and "is there" (after considerable...
I can't say the Vibra-Tite doesn't work. I've tried it, with mixed success, likely because I didn't allow sufficient "pre-drying" before assembly.
That said, Loctite is "easier" for me to use...
Ditto! And when I go to FO, on some setups, because of either the particular sight design - - - center the "dot" (FO) instead of top of front sight - - - or how I align it (FO "too low" relative to...
Went to range yesterday to work on a contrarily feeding .22. Tossed my G26.5 in the range bag with a few (precious) 9mm rounds, really just to see if I could still shoot iron sights (been almost...
So, I've had this Carl Walther-made M&P .22LR for years. https://www.smith-wesson.com/firearms/archive-mp-22-12-round-threaded-barrel
It has run just fine (pretty much 100% with ammo like Mini...
Hey Rich,
Try taking some double-sided tape and sticking the different colors of fiber on either side of a standard black front sight (or if your front sight is already FO, just tape on the...
RoyGBiv, Got my package from Gander a few minutes ago. If the 9mm works as well as the Aquila .22LR, I'll be more than satisfied.
Thanks for the tip!
Ditto. Many thanks!!
Back in the '70s, a fishing buddy of mine "shot his way" through college on a 5-man skeet team (4 shooters, 1 sub). Link below is a write-up of some of the team and individual records they set back...
We dinosaurs are quite adaptable. We are also smart . . . and prepared for any eventuality imaginable.
Consider us "woke".
That's why we plan on ruling the earth for millennia!

Pardon the detour from the clear focus of this thread . . .

Well, just for grins I went to Sig's web site, and they have corrected their math (or maybe it was always correct there, and it was just wrong on the email). Sort of like . . . sometimes a fix is...
Sig does get criticism for some of its products/practices, but it's tough to fault them for the sales success of the little P365.
The marketing staff QC is clearly up to the task.
After all,...
Well, I took my 9mm bore sighter to the range today. Nothing new re: gun and sight/dot setup. Just wanted to see what it looked like at established distances, with an already sighted in G19.5/SRO...
