Well-stated. Thanks.
Plate racks. Plates conveniently situated at a consistent height. Plates situated a consistent distance apart. Plates that do not dive to prone, drop to kneeling, side-step, etc. Just sayin’.
No,...
Well, actually, the early GP100 grooves were not on the extractor star, but on the main part of the cylinder, in the recessed area that accepts the extractor star. This could be a challenge to...
When funnel clouds or tornados are near, the dark clouds can cast what appears, to be a sick greenish effect, at least when the sun is at some angles. I knew that no tornados were near, so, this...
I thought that I should point out that Bill Jordan’s hip shooting was quite different from the FBI hip shooting. In Bill Jordan’s book _No Second Place Winner_, this is clearly shown, in a...
Same here, a little way up the coast from y’all. At the moment of peak coverage, 1:39 PM CDT, a hole opened, in the several layers of clouds, for just a short time, except for some amount of...
I will quote/repeat, for emphasis, the “taken as evidence” part. Every firearm, at the immediate scene of a shooting incident, is probably going to be examined, for evidence of having been fired....
Amen. I had wanted to tell the OP that I had carried an N-Frame (S&W Model 58) IWB, in the Eighties, when I was about as slim than he is, but, I thought that it would go over about as well as saying...
Short answer: Yes. I might well still be carrying P229 pistols, had they been 9mm, instead of the snappier .40 S&W. (I got old.)
BUT, I might rather have used the P226, instead of the P229, had PD...
Yes, thanks, I have considered ordering an LTT Grip Anchor, if I buy another G19. I was already kicking myself for totally trading-off all of my three G19 pistols, because I had not yet tried the KKM...
This is quite concerning! I can imagine plenty of folks making this error, during reassembly. (I am not being hypocritically judgmental. My tendency to make “slip-and-capture” errors is something...
With this added context, my helpfulness is limited. I will echo the concerns already expressed, by other P-F members, about the 43x and other slim-line 9mm Glocks.
Regarding the number of pistols...
The G17 shoots better, in my hands, than the G19*. When I wore enough clothing to conceal a G19, I could conceal a G17. So, to answer your question, exactly as asked, I would choose the Glock G17,...
I seem to recall that Quito is where “professional” you-tuber photographers get ALL of their gear stolen.
Well, I did not quite get around to buying an FAL. Browning BLR, in .308, will have to do. Lighter to carry, anyway, so, better. Even better, a Takedown BLR, in a backpack, to enable having the AR/M4...
Stores in towns along the zone of totality are already having empty-shelf situations, according to my brother-in-law, who is very near that area, in Texas.
Apparently, there are you-tubers and...
Armed citizen intervenes in “staged” robbery. The “robbery victims” had wanted to be able to file a report that they had been robbed.
...
Well, has the weapon ever been fired quickly enough, in a short time span, for it to get well and truly brought “up to temperature?” Any improperly heat-treated parts, or parts made of a sub-standard...
Thanks for the advice! I have long been tempted to try visiting a Coptic service, not necessarily on Easter, or whatever they call it, because one is within walking distance.
I was under the weather. Still am, to a lesser degree. I will try again, on Orthodox Easter, which is on May 5th this year. No, I am not joking.
This morning, Thursday, 28th March 2024, would be a very good time to check the evil bay for an OWB black holster made by M.G., at his evil bay store. These listings do not tend to remain up, for...
Thanks! No matter how much each generation of iPad Pro becomes more like computers, there are still some things an iPad Pro cannot do. Or, it may be that I need to use some still-mysterious “gesture”...
This iPad will not let be type his exact evil-bay user name, which seems to include underlined letters. The evil bay site will not let me copy and paste his user name. A search for his user name will...
Slightly shorter overall height spec, versus slightly slimmer overall width spec. One is better for some, while the other is better for some. The collective “we” cannot answer for any one individual....
