What isn't said is that there IS a notable difference in barrier penetration between the service rounds. Some high dollar 9mm do OK in barrier tests. But, I can buy equally effective .40 or .45 ammo cheaper and more readily. Barrier penetration matters greatly IMHO, because you can't assume...
I'm looking at low power scopes like 1x4 or 2x7. The Bushnell Dawn/Dusk Shotgun scope looks good on paper. I know Bushnell is a big name, but what is Bushnell's quality like?
I know Nikon and Leupold are good. What are the other good brands? Weaver?
I don't trust a safety period, but that's what we are all taught. I also agree these are probably not as good as a handgun safety.
I bought my son a Mossberg even though I am a Remington fan. He will not use it for a few years, but I worry about him dropping it - - not me. So, when I heard...
At 20/200 a legally blind person can easily identify a hostile target at SD distance. Legally blind and "blind" are different. Many of us who wear glasses have uncorrected visual acuity worse than 20/200. So, it would be like shooting without wearing glasses.
This is the one situation in...
IMHO, one can build a very secure home (in all aspects) and fit in with any community. If planned smartly, there may be a little more expense, but little if any loss in resale value.
IIRC, the OP is in Kansas. A basement set up as a tornado shelter is a selling point. It is also suitable...
This is a subject I am very interested in as well. I hope to build mine in a year or 3. It keeps getting put back.
Here are some additional thoughts. In addition to studying anti-tornado construction, also look at anti-hurricane construction (same wind, but more info is available about...
Honestly, I've focused more on teaching him with a handgun because of difficulty dealing with the eye dominance thing. With a handgun, we can tilt the gun a little to get a correct sight picture. I thought a long eye relief scope might aid in allowing him to shoot right handed with his left...
I don't know much about scopes, so I need some advice. Let me share the parameters:
Purpose: plinking cans with kids age 5 and 9
Gun: cheap marlin 22 auto / maybe a 10/22 in the future
Special consideration: my son is 5 and I have noticed he is right handed but left eye dominate...
The 22/23 is generally considered (by the high end training community) to be a reliable gun for occassional shooters - like most cops. However, they tend to say that due to the slide being insufficient in mass to handle the .40 round, breakage and unreliability begin to occur much earlier than...
