    Taurus 445 44spl

    I had the stainless version in the late '90s. Looked good, carried nice and went bang, but for some strange reason, mine was incredibly inaccurate. Ammo was scarce and $$$ even back then, so I sold it downriver without regrets. I do kinda miss my Titanium 7-shot Taurus .357 snubby, though even...

    Range Day 5-13-24

    Nice group for 20yds with a compact .40. 👍

    Deawoo DP51.

    Neato. If I remember correctly, mine was actually imported by Kimber, of all things.

    Deawoo DP51.

    I had the compact model back in the early oughts. Lionheart arms was still importing and selling a slightly updated version a few years ago. No idea what their status is now. I assume you've discovered the unique action wherein you can push the hammer forward from the cocked position, then...

    What did you shoot today?

    I love my Rascal, and have given several as gifts, to both kids and adults and everyone loves them. There is a whole cottage industry for preppers turning them into last ditch/buried/takedown survival rifles too. 😁 Me and a bud from work did a little plinking after work. We shot my freshly...

    What did you shoot today?

    Some folks complain about the accuracy using them in 1/7-1/9 bores, but mine has always been acceptable out to 50YDs. Somebody is making a heavy bullet .22LR specifically for use in .223 barrels. Id like to try it for comparison it, but cant complain even with 40gr. fodder.

    Mossberg lever action .30-30: Why discontinued?

    Well....Savage had a little tug at the beginning and the end, but otherwise pretty much cycles itself. All the other leverguns feel like a transmission shifting by comparison.😁 ;)

    Mossberg lever action .30-30: Why discontinued?

    This is the first I'm hearing about it even existing, so obviously can't remember seeing one in the flesh. Henry is everywhere- radio, internet, magazines........add poor marketing by Mossberg to the list, lol.

    They Don't Call it a Masterpiece for No Reason...

    I dunno, I would have preferred something less martial like "Police Masterpiece" or "Duty Masterpiece" since the M15 was never going to see combat, per se, aside from USAF examples and even then only in extremis. Kinda like the Colt "Army Special" which never won an Army contract though the...

    Most rust resistant handgun?

    Glock 44 maybe? Mostly polymer slide, very little exposed steel. Of course, I've seen way too many pics of them cracked too, so not what I'd carry- assuming I wanted to carry a .22, of course. HiPoints are crackle-coated zinc on top of polymer and actually seem pretty resilient. For that...

    Springfield Armory's SA16-A2

    I guess the question is, would I want to be issued a 20" with A2 irons or a 14.5" M4 with an ACOG? For me, personally, I'd take the full-size. But then, I'm unlikely to ever have to squeeze into an APC or a chopper with a rifle and full kit. For the average mechanised trooper, the M4 with...

    What is the most recent knife you bought?

    I got a couple in D2 for pack knives and another in AUS8 for EDC. That one could stand to be sharper, probably work on it this weekend. Not sure if it'll be a permanent replacement for my Buck, but Ill give it a trial period.

    You've Come a Long Way, Baby...

    SOP here and now may be very different from 25 years and half a world away. Besides, I think the point of the scene was the Delta character pointing out that an overly cautious SOP can get you killed when it drops in the pot. It'll be interesting to see if the IDF keeps the dummy magwell plugs...
