I see this question as “what gun gives the best trade off between concealable enough for the majority of carry situations but shoot able enough I can do a multi day class without discomfort”.

For...

I think it's just Cerakote. I have two of the FDE M&P pistols, and both of them showed wear spots very shortly after I started doing dry fire with presentation from a kydex holster. My black...

I agree. I have this exact pistol setup (M&P 9 2.0 Compact with Holosun 407C in an JM Custom kydex IWB holster) and it works great.

Autocorrect got me on that last post.

“It does water a little near, but it also tends to significantly reduce (or eliminate) mobility.” should be “ It does waste a little meat, but it also tends...

I agree with your observation on anatomy, as the front shoulders of a deer are attached only with muscle and connective tissue.

However, I do politely disagree with your assessment on a shoulder...

Good decision! :D

The hinged M&P trigger doesn’t bother me, but installing an Apex Tactical trigger is a major upgrade.

I recommend a M&P 2.0 5” in .40 S&W.

I have one and it has been a pleasure to shoot, even with hotter .40 handloads.

I also have a .40-to-9 conversion barrel for it, and a simple barrel swap...

180 HST unless I’m carrying a .40 as a hunting sidearm, when I switch to DoubleTap 200 gr hardcast.

Almost certainly an improperly seated primer and the first strike finished pushing it into place.

I agree. That would be a strange criteria.

It’s definitely possible to put too much pistol in a pocket, such that it becomes difficult to draw quickly and cleanly. I have pants where I can...

I have limited experience shooting .454 Casull, only a few times out of a range buddies Ruger Super Redhawk with 7.5” barrel. I don’t know specifics on the loads, but it was moderately unpleasant to...

I have three JMCK OWB 2 holsters and can’t recommend them highly enough.

For a hunting rifle, if this was mine to rebarrel I’d go with 1:7.5, stainless steel and no preference on cut vs button or number of grooves. If my chosen barrel maker had a recommendation on...

I agree. The 7 shot GP-100 design is not inherently flawed. This is a tolerance issue that happens during manufacturing. I’m certain the CAD being used to manufacture the cylinders shows chamber...

This is what I’d do. Brass rod and hammer.

Not really many (if any) options for current production 4X scopes. I think Meopta made a run of 6X a Thule ago, but I could be wrong.

All of my lever guns or carbines wear LPVOs these days.

Through the various ARs and respective BCGs I’ve owned or worked on over the years, one cutter pin in one BCG was a huge PITA to put into position. I threw it in the trash, grabbed another one from...

That I don’t know. I only have polymer frame M&Ps.

If anyone shoots M&Ps (and possibly, like myself, has spare M&P parts on hand) CDNN Sports is selling 5” M&P 40 2.0 stripped slides for $50.

I bought one to build up as a project t. I needed a...

I agree. It’s deer season here in VA, and I’m carrying a M&P40 2.0 5” every day in the woods.

I recently came across a great deal on a stripped MNP 2.0 slide. Ive acquired all of the components needed to finish the slide, but I have a question about the striker spring guide.

Does the...

Will this belt work for those of us who still carry Old School at 3:30/4:00 instead of AIWB?

I mounted PA 3X this morning and took it to the range this afternoon to zero. No problems, I like the optic and it seems like a good option for the 7.62x39 cartridge, since at a distance where I’d...

I just ordered one of the PA 3X Micro Prism optics with the 7.62x39/300Blk reticle. I’m going to try it on a 7.62x39 AR.

I’ve tried a G19 in my Snubby, and I’ve found with my hand there isnt enough room to reliably develop a full grip with the pistol inside the bag. Thus the move down to a smaller handgun.
