    Best ballistic app?

    On Android I use the paid Strelok Pro version. Works well for me, although I'm by no means a sub-MOA long distance shooter.

    Bluegun (laserlyte) and laser targets: Training Value?

    I read elsewhere that SIRT M&P "beta test" models were sent out last October to testers. I read one testers comments and it appears they still needed some improvements. I've not been able to find any information on release date. Hopefully it will be early this year.

    Dog leash in one hand, flashlight in the other...

    Wear a headlamp to free up one hand. This has the added advantage that you light up what you look at. There are a lot of good choices at different price points. I've had issues with off-leash dogs while walking my dog and wanted to keep one hand free. So after much research I just bought a...

    Tried to zero my rifle at 50 feet and this was the result

    I just re-sighted my deer rifle to get bulls-eye at 50 and 100 yrds. I don't want any sighting errors to add up to a bad shot on the day.

    Question about fluing with a relatives pistol or rifle

    You also need to check the situation re markings (manufacturer, serial number etc) and what is required by BATF to transfer them via an FFL.

    left handed shooter

    Skribs - not sure what you are looking for but the S&W M&P can be made fully left handed, at least mine can. The mag release swaps to the other side and the slide release is ambi.

    Google "buds guns ffl search" and use their FFL search to find a closer dealer to you. The last reported transfer fee is listed on their website as a guideline.

    At home, during the day

    I'm just in process of looking at Remora Holsters. The grippy ones get great reviews everywhere I've looked and do not require a belt or firm waistband for in-home concealed carry. They appear to work well with shorts, sweat pants, etc. I don't have one yet so cannot give an actual in-use...

    ? about leaving a gun in an unsecured environment

    Assuming the Marlin has no particular emotional or family memories then seems like a good plan. Personally I prefer non-1911 platforms but if that works for you go for it.

    Wild hog hunting outlawed in tn

    Wild hog hunting is also illegal in Kansas, but it is possible to get a permit to destroy wild hogs. They are trying to prevent wild hog hunting turning into a business where only a percentage of the herd would be killed each year, instead of the entire herd.

    Mossberg 500 - Turkey/Grand Slam Turkey without porting?

    Thanks Nate. Being new to shotguns I was finding some of this confusing. I already use electronic muffs for deer hunting.

    Mossberg 500 - Turkey/Grand Slam Turkey without porting?

    I am a lefty shooter buying my first shotgun for primarily turkey hunting and and secondarily for HD, although based on shell count fired many more rounds will be fired at the range. I've no interest at all in upland birds, and any clays would be just for fun/practice with the turkey gun. I've...

    What kind of light do you use for your safe?

    Use the under-cabinet type rope light, strung around the door opening, and connected to a switch. Works pretty well and is low cost.

    Ticks!

    The woods on my property have many ticks especially in the spring. I use a Sawyer Permethrin Military Soak Treatment Kit to treat the clothes I will be wearing while working in the woods. You need one kit per person, and the treatment lasts for 6 weeks or 6 washings. Follow the directions and...

    Combat Focus Shooting Courses, Spring 2011... coast to coast

    What would be considered reasonable pre-requisites and proficiency level before taking a CFS course? I know I would benefit, just wondering if I need to train more beforehand. For example if I can pretty much hit the A zone of a USPSA target from stationary at 21ft with rapid fire would that...

    anyone else get a call from the NRA today?

    I get the occasional call from them with similar left-field "sound bites". In my opinion if they were more reasonable about their script they might get more donations.

    Fixing "breaking wrist up"?

    So the sight picture for the M&P9c would explain the 2" high, but why would the 1911 also be high by about the same amount since I used the correct sight picture (bisect bulls eye with post tops)? Would that be because of the locking thumbs? I'll try something different next time. I like the...

    Fixing "breaking wrist up"?

    Thanks guys. More info as requested: My pistol is a S&W M&P 9mm compact (3.5" barrel) with the lo-mount white dot sights. This is a dual stack 12-round magazine. I've had this for nearly two years doing club practice USPSA, but this was the first time I was really working on slow fire very...
