I prefer to wear my belts fairly loose. If the belt is rigid vertically, that works. Vertical rigidity often requires horizontal stiffness too, and a thick belt. The Swift CSM solves that problem...

A few thoughts:
Surf hasn't been on the forum for a while, and his excellent video on trigger mechanics isn't available anymore. My takeaway from his material is that you want to be able to pull...
I've been very impressed with TBAC. They are at the top of my list for suppressors, along with Surefire.
Fun hoser match. 3rd CO against strong competition.

OOB ignition is bad. I've had 3 total, and the results ranged from hot gas, carbon, and brass shavings to the face to blown-off grips and a hurt hand. Fortunately none were in a plastic gun where...
"Accurate" barrel life should be about the same. ~3000 rounds give or take. I have 5.56 ARs with quite a bit more than that, and they still do what I need them to.
I've never warmed to the AR-10. I'd much rather have a lightweight suppressed 5.56 SBR, and a .308 (or other caliber) precision bolt action rifle.
I've discovered that heavy mag springs and mag shims from https://460rowland.com are required for 100% reliability in Glock 20s and full power loads. I'll update this post later with a link to the PF...
I have pants belts I bought at REI that are stiffer than the Zero. The Heavy is way stiffer than the Zero, but not as torsionally stiff as I prefer (e.g. Swift CSM).
When the belt is close to its...

Thanks for posting that. I knew about that incident, but assumed he killed the bear with a head shot. It's surprising and impressive that 9mm hardcast penetrated sufficiently a heart/lung kill.
Cool Breeze, this is a really good question and it's frustrating that belt makers don't provide precise measurements of the stiff part. I shift it to the left, but I still want my buckle to remain...
I still remember seeing alien for the first time. I was with some friends, and little Daniel the fat kid got a large popcorn with extra butter and wouldn’t share. When the alien jumped out of the...
Tough scenario, and good to explore. I agree with the thug that it's not worth getting in a gunfight over a car, unless I need the car for life safety purposes (like not getting stranded in the...
Welcome to Pistol-Forum! You can drop a lot of cash on a full kit, and I recommend against that until you have more time in the sport to figure out what you really like.
BSPS has a good package...
Knife bans are more upsetting to me than gun bans. It's a core values thing. Ever since I was a kid, carrying a knife has represented autonomy. My mom was rarely without a fixed blade knife (or a...
Compared to a Glock 19, lots of guns are easier to shoot well and conceal. What makes Glocks the "AR-15 of handguns" to me is they combine reliability, durability, simplicity, ease of service and...
That would require law enforcement on public transportation, a mandate to detain, search, and arrest suspects.
Without that, it’s just another law that only restricts law abiding citizens.
LOL! :D
Great posts HCM and TCinVA. I have a few thoughts.

Good post. Bench is the one thing I don't do, because it's a useless position for the kind of shooting I do. And I suck at it. My zeros are from prone, and then I have constant work and practice to...
Wow... really adjusting your zero on the fly.
