I can never bring myself to carry on that part of my body.......
Lyman #2 alloy has been the dominant lead alloy mix used in JHP loads in semiauto calibers for the last couple of decades. It makes for a nice sweet spot of strength and malleability. It is...
The Talons are a pretty good bullet design, and were the go-to round for a long time. 9mm 147gr RTs were Doc's favorite for a long time too. They were a good design in that the copper alloy talons...
Not Doc, but it is a electro-plating process. Soft lead bullets are submerged in a copper solution, and the copper molecules attach themselves to the lead molecules on the bullet's outer surface. ...
Gold Dots use a soft lead core and a soft, plated copper jacket. Therefore, if there is nose impact on a steep feed ramp, particularly with heavier recoiling calibers that use a stiff recoil spring,...
I first started seeing P320 trickle into Federal services in 2015 when a few NCIS guys started carrying them. At the Federal training center in Artesia, we saw a lot of guns go tits-up in the hot,...
LE agencies always cater to the weakest links in their ranks. Those weak links likely have difficulty in immediately recognizing duty ammo from training ammo, and why our agency qualifications are...
2,400 rounds through the LE P365, no problems.
Yeah, I saw the reference to Courtney and it totally shut it down for me.

Well, it didn't shrink....... ;)
1800 rounds fired. No problems.
Yet another video that shows how effective the taser can be.
Good OC hits, followed by skilled use with a quality baton is more reliable than a Taser IMO.
One thing to remember is that Sig is currently using the Remington manufacturing model where police and military contract models are of higher quality than civilian commercial models. Before Ron...
I brought enough ammo to the range today to run the P365 to the 1000rd mark. This was a nasty day in the low 100s with blowing dust. 200rds of Winchester 124gr FMJ, 100rds of American Eagle 147gr...
I can tell you that carrying around a semiauto .308 with 150rds of ammo, an optic, body armor, water, food,.....etc is an extremely taxing endeavor. The 6.5 caliber, in an intermediate sized...
.45acp has trouble getting through vehicle materials. I have been to a half dozen vehicle shoot workshops over the last few years, and even with .45acp+P bonded loads a slug rarely gets through a...
I've used the Heinies, along with many other sight options. The Heines, even in tritium format are good for bullseye shooting in good lighting conditions. They can turn a short sight radius pistol...
My experience with the manual safety on either model is not extensive, but I did find the P320 to have a very positive and consistent engagement/disengagement from new service guns to guns that have...
I bought a LE version of the P365 with a born-on date of July 2018 to try it out. Only 3 range sessions and 600rds so far, but no problems as of yet. No malfunctions/stoppages, and accuracy is on...
The beauty of the P320 platform is that you can drill and cut up a frame all you want, and then just buy another if you didn't like the work you did on it.......but yes, you can cut the frame to...
There probably isn't enough brass/aluminum in the case mouth to produce a tight seal for exploding gases. So, there would have been quite a bit of gas traveling back into the breech of the pistol...
Unfortunately this reminds me of the Remington business model of putting higher quality into LE/MIL contract guns and lesser quality into commercial/civilian guns. The 870 and 11-87 series have gone...
Up until 2004, I still found caches of Winchester 9mm 115gr Silver Tips that were issued out in several armories in the DOI. While giving a lecture at Artesia FLETC several years ago on ammunition...
A lot of his early stuff was questionable. Testing was not relevant, methodology was poor, and conclusions were gun-raggish. He's gotten much better with cleaning up his gun testing such that I...
