    Sweet Home Alabama....

    In Hunysville there is a good indoor range at Larry's Pistol and pawn on university (main shopping drag) The store has a lot...they have a crappy attitude and fail in the friendly and customer service areas...but you can occassionally find some great deals there....my wife and I like to use the...

    A Can of Worms... CCW in 9mm you thoughts

    I've carried "a lot" of different guns (ask my wife-LOL) in 9mm sub's some of the best I'd say Keltec PF9 (can't be beat for $300) GLOCK 26 (one of the few subs you can dump 10K rounds through and just have a reliable broken in flawless deffensive tool...just as reliable as the bigger...

    Kahr arms and the PM9.....huh!

    I traded for a used in (I thought) excellent condition Kahr PM9 at the shop I work at recently...I always loved the way the PM9 felt...so I considered trading for it myself...seems to shoot well enough. However upon getting it home I broke it down and found the ejection side forward polymer...

    Obsession with brassbustin' pressure/velocity?

    depends... some rounds like .270 winchester are actually lighter loads than what that cartridge was when it came out...though production safety margins may have dictated that move from 3150-ish fps (130gr) down to more like 3060fps you see on most boxes of storebought. With modern powders you...

    Glock 36 or Glock 26....opinions please?

    I had a chance to take out a 36 the other day (have been carrying a 26 and also own a 21SF in .45 I have handled modified and serviced several but never ran one before the other day. I have to say I was dissapointed. It ran 100% for the 50rd. box of ball I ran through it but it lacked the...

    9mm: 115 vs 124 vs 147 grain

    124gr +P Speer Gold Dot...it's rarely the most accurate load (almost every nine I've had shoots Fed. hydrashocks and/or Hornady XTP's better on paper) But I REALLY trust that bullet! I've shot a few critters with it...it is IMHO the best most reliable bullet in 9mm as far as expanding reliably...

    GLOCK 21 and recoil spring testing w/various ammo

    I've had a 21SF for a while now (the one with the stupid pica. rail and ambi magazine release...though thankfully mine seems to work fine) It replacedgen II 21 I had years back and liked but traded for a 1911 I liked better. Really liked the new SF in hand. I polished and swapped to a 3.5#...

    Blackhawk Serpa Holsters - Opinions

    I carry a GLOCK 26 everyday...I also tried the serpa many moons back (with whatever GLOCK I was carrying at the time...probably a 19/23 The holster part is fine but the backing/belt plate sticks out too far for a CCW holster...the adjustment in belt slots is a joke to (they may have changed that...

    Like the Glock 26?

    If you have big hands like me try the Pearce PG-39 +2 extension over the regular plus one or GLOCK's plus 2 It really adds more room at the front of the grip (my other gun is a G21SF!) and 12+1 capacity for the G26...great lil add on for like $10 fits 27 as well...think it just adds one there...

    Like the Glock 26?

    I just traded into a nice like new G26 myself...I think it's around the 14th. (roughly) GLOCK I've owned...I've shot the 26/27 before but never owned one till now...I always said they didn't really fit me but I loved how they carried. Well this one already had a 3.5# connector and slide stop...

    Glock

    I believe I've owned 13 or 14 GLOCK pistols...they are not "THE" pistol...there's LOTS of good pistols out there...they are however damned good and reliable pistols for a very fair price. They are the Honda Accord of gun ownership...not too exciting...but a solid easy to reccomend product of...

    Alabama Carry Laws Question -- Update

    just remember what I or some radio show guy says won't protect you in court...get a copy of the state code and read it sometime...that's the best answer. Most times I think common sense prevails in day to day "normal" encounters with a regular law abiding citizen in situations like that...but...

    Alabama Carry Laws Question -- Update

    Yeah in AL. it's basically schools (remember the gun free school zone federal push from the 90's?) state and federal buildings (courthouse, post office ect) state forrests ect are a bit of a grey area...in that there are open hunting seasons...in all likelyhood you "can" have a problem but...

    Inside the pants holster for a PF-9 with an armalaser

    It sounds more like a pocket-holster situation to me...and maybe shrinking down to a .380 w/ laser. I've pocket carried the PF9 and my wife still does at times...it's a little big but can be done...the .380 LCP w/ crimson trace is nicer for that mode of carry. I don't see any IWB as offering...
