    thermal scope for hogs

    I recently read a magazine article about hunting feral hogs with thermal imaging rifle scopes. In the accompanying photo's the hogs appeared amazingly lit up, and easy to see at night, much better than any night vision unit I have used. Maybe not so sporting, but the hogs can be very destructive...

    Why I don't trust a Glock

    The best safety is between your ears The best safety is between your ears. You must press the trigger to clear a glock in order to dissasemble it. I'll bet anything that this guy was "clearing" his glock prior to dissasembly or something and forgot to check the chamber (mistake number one for...

    bar soap for mosquitos

    Thanks for the suggestions but I'm looking for a bar soap Thank you for the suggestions, but I'm one of those guys who only uses one bathroom product...... bar soap, for everything. Hair, skin, shaving, hand washing, etc.. and I'm too old to change. I don't and won't use any products like...

    bar soap for mosquitos

    I always thought It was me. Everytime I went out hunting, camping, 4x4 mudding, etc., the bugs just tore me up. Often ignoring my buddies. Then someone suggested it might be my soap. I used Irish Spring. So I switched and it got much better. It got me to thinking though. Maybe I could go a step...

    Would H.R. 822 allow carry in Ill or NYC?

    Thanks Thanks for the info. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but he has suprised me before, and it is coming up on an election year. I'm hoping his self serving nature will win out over his ideology. So, any place that issues licenses would be forced to reciprocate with my state? Even if the...

    Would H.R. 822 allow carry in Ill or NYC?

    Would H.R. 822 allow concealed carry in area's which do not allow concealed carry such as Illinois or in New York City? or only in places which also have concealed carry. How about Vermont which I believe has no permits, but allows all elligable persons to carry concealed? (apologies if my legal...

    Why I don't trust a Glock

    Cominolli Safety Why not put a Cominolli Safety on it? Joe Cominolli makes a "1911 like" thumb safety for glock pistols. I have used one on a g27 I owned and they are marvelous devices. Good luck in your handgunning, Mick

    what's the worst gun you've ever owned?

    Worst guns I think it's a tie between the older Para Ordnance p-10's and the Kimber ultra carry. Tried several of each, tried breaking them in sufficiently, tried changing my grip/hold, tried different ammo, tried sending them back for repairs, SOL. Diddn't even want to sell them to anyone...

    Most Reliable Auto Loader

    My most and least relaible guns I'm what you might call a poor man's collector. I buy 'em, shoot 'em a while, and sell 'em to help pay for the next one. And since I'm no kid, I've owned ALOT of different gun's. Many of my favorites, multiple times. All guns are capable of malfunctions. Even the...

    Sig Sauer P-220 .45 ACP vs. ParaOrdinance Warthog .45 ACP

    Sig p245, Owned one of them too Hey Stinger327, to answer your question, yes the compact Sig p245 will kick a little more than the full sized version. I believe, if memory serves me correctly, it holds 6 in the mag and one in the pipe for a total onboard of 7. Yes the Warthog will hold 11...

    Sig Sauer P-220 .45 ACP vs. ParaOrdinance Warthog .45 ACP

    I've owned 2 of each My p220's were better, more reliable, more accurate, better made, would shoot most ammo, and were less likely to jam, although one of mine did occasionally. And, although you diddn't ask, they make guide rod lasers for them. I'm a big fan of lasers, for multiple reasons...

    Married Ladies, Do You Carry When Your Husband Doesn't?

    The Wife I'm lucky, my wife carries all the time. I too have an injury that makes it difficult to carry. I carry a little Kel-tec .32, so that I do not agravate my hip injury. I would feel very undergunned, except the wife carries a .40 in her purse. God bless her. I'm lucky to have her. "Gun...

    Ccw @ ihop

    Mousegun This makes me think twice about carrying my Kel-tec .32. Yea it is comfortable to carry at 6.6oz, but it feels about as useful as a toothpick against an AK. Any pistol for that matter, but especially a mousegun....... That pause is me rethinking my impotent carry piece. lol. Better get...

    10mm vs 45 ACP which has more stopping power.

    "just one example of an anatomical location where a bigger hole in a threat is less likely to stop it" Hey Mavracer, I've got it! It's the "A" Hole. The bigger they are, the less likely you are to stop them. lol

    10mm vs 45 ACP which has more stopping power.

    SWAG It depends on what you mean by stopping power. I'll intuit from your post that you mean stopping a human assailant before they can hurt you. Of course, shot placement is everything, but sometimes we don't get 'em in the heart, or head. If we did, alot of people would just carry a .22, and...
