    Carry at gun shows.

    Signs in Minnesota typically say “No Loaded Guns” allowed. I have always carried concealed. Most guys I know also are carrying concealed. No one has ever asked. Most dealers I know are carrying concealed at the shows. They have asked if I have anything in the bag I carry.

    Investigators say gun used in Truck Park bar shooting linked to straw purchase

    According to the KSTP report Horton bought 33 guns from 6 different stores in the last 4 months. 4 of the stores were Fleet Farm branches. The other 2 stores were local gun shops. I understand ATF can trace a particular gun (in this case a Mossberg handgun used in the Truck Park shooting)...

    More people purchasing shotguns and handguns for self-defense then Assault Rifles during COVID 19

    One comment I have heard from several gun shops why shotguns are selling (the "tactical" shorter barreled ones) is that in Minnesota you can purchase a shotgun (or long gun) with no waiting period or Permit to Purchase. Just fill out the 4473 and take the shotgun home that day. You need a...

    P365 or Glock 43

    I have both (and a Sig P938). I carry the Sig P365 only because it carries a few more rounds than the G43. I think the G43 is a good gun too. I also carried the P938 for a while since I am a 1911 guy. They all are good guns. Since I could not decide which one of the above 3 to carry, I ran...

    Eley Target Gold/Yellow

    Target is standard velocity 22LR. Your velocities of 1244 and 1310 for Target Yellow are way too high. The velocities for the Gold Target are about right. This is standard velocity ammo and velocities should be about 1050 fps.

    Observations re: Sig 938

    I also was not confident swiping off the stock safety on my P938 so I got an extended safety from Cylinder & Slide and it is great now. They do not list it on their site, you need to call and ask for it. About $50 if I remember. Mine needed a little work fitting the tab that retains it, but...

    Can't see the target anymore.

    Have your optometrist move the optical center of your dominant eye to the position of the lense you are using when sighting. I had my shooting glasses ground that way. The first time I sighted down the iron sights The front sight was perfectly sharp. Only the dominant eye should be ground...

    Do you need to pass a class to get a permit to purchase?

    Minnesota requires a "Permit To Purchase" for handguns and "assault rifles" or a 7 day waiting period from a dealer. (I do not know of any dealers that will do the 7 day waiting period type of sale. They tell you to come back after you have received your Permit To Purchase.) To apply for a...

    P238 ambidextrous safety 'biting' hand

    I had the same problem with my P938. My skin was being pinched between the right ambi safety and the grip. I relieved the grip slightly to eliminate the pinching. Be careful, the right grip holds a small pin in. If you remove too much of the grip to eliminate the pinch, as I did, the pin...

    9mm or .40S&W for IDPA/USPSA Production?

    A few of the very good shooters, IDPA / IPSC Production, in my area handload the 40 SW to just above minor power factor. (Same as a factory 9 mm load.) They claim that they can recover faster with the minor power factor 40 SW than with a 9 mm. They tune their 40 SW gun to run at that power...

    IDPA BUG Matches

    I ran IDPA BUG matches for years in Minnesota. I ran them as an additional match in addition to our regular Summer league matches. Probably 1/2 of the regular match shooters also shot the BUG match. A few of the regular match shooters said the BUG match was the main reason they came to the...
