    I know this thread is a year old, but I was wondering about this box of 9mm 124gr +P HST I picked up about six months ago for about $30. I've got quite a bit of HST on hand, mostly 147gr, in the...

    What distance do you zero pistol optic?

    Title says it all. I've got a Holosun green dot mounted directly on a HK VP9 (no mounting plate) zeroed at 20 yards. This is strictly a self defence gun; I don't compete, but still want accuracy at a...

    Ammo stored in severe weather extremes

    I keep a small sealed ammo box in the trunk of my car with a backup box or two of my usual calibers in case I'm at the range and decide to shoot more than I intended when I left the house. Most is...

    I've got a friend just outside the Wichita, KS city limits with a small range he repurposed from what was originally intended to be a pond by the former owner who changed his mind.

    Went to Prague, Vienna and Budapest several years ago with my son. Great trip! The advice we had from several long-time Eastern European travelers was "Watch out for pickpockets." We never had a...

    Not sure how that could happen, even from a logistical standpoint out here in Kansas. From the moral standpoint of our church leadership, we would not compel any of our members or guests to not be...

    Is that the sound of JMB rolling over in his grave?

    Yup. Regardless of your home state rules, you have to abide by the rules of the state you're traveling through. "Constitutional carry" in Oklahoma doesn't mean squat in California, Illinois or any...

    I had a bullet hole in my roof, too, found while cleaning my gutters a few years ago. Some people in my neighborhood like to celebrate Independence Day by shooting in the air I suppose. No matter...

    Sorry, I didn't mean to appear rude.

    Obviously not the same bullet, but some years ago I shot some Fiocchi .45 JHPs into water jugs. They expanded beautifully but the jackets separated.

    Next time you might consider making a couple slo-mo videos while she shoots. Did she try shooting a .22 pistol? What distance was she shooting? I'm no expert, but I'm guessing it's not flinching,...

    I realize we're straying from the original question and I apologise, but I do want to add this, then I'll be quiet.

    I've mentioned several times to our team that it's more likely a disruptive or...

    Well, I am on the security team at our church, but that doesn't change what I carry pretty much every day anyway.

    I concealed carry an HK VP9 with green CT laser, IWB, but I will begin carrying a...

    Unless otherwise forced to do so, I wouldn't get out of my vehicle until it's in my garage. However, my seat belt would be unbuckled at the first sign of trouble.

    I think the issue is the Tac14 and shockwave shooting high and left is because right handed shooters tend shoot to tend that way.

    I've got a Tac14 and noticed it shoots high and left but that...

    Interesting. I've patterened both the eight and nine pellet flight control from a Tac14 at ten yards and both were more like a ragged slug than buckshot. Next up I'll see what it's like at 20 yards....

    Admittedly, I don't "practice" reloads in the strict sense of the word, but I have to reload while I'm practicing anyway, so why not use the time to my advantage since I'm doing it anyway?

    FWIW, you might look for a 22 that is 'close enough' to your carry gun that it will still do the job without being the same brand. I agree, that's ideal, but maybe not possible since not all 9mm gun...

    Unless it is mounted to something immovable made of steel and resistant to bolt cutters, hacksaws, angle grinders etc, I think it's a mediocre idea.

    It's not really a safe anyway, just a bit more...
