In winter, in say Alaska or Minn. I say go FMJ. It was not uncommon in Conn. for me to sometimes wear thermals, thick padded jeans on bottom and thermal, sweater and then parka on top. In Alaska or Minn. the layers may be even thicker. Not saying the JHP won't expand but you want those extra...

FMJ penetrates more than JHP. We should consider this in our choice of ammo. Gotcha. This is why I don't buy any of the gun rags anymore.

If you have truly maxed out that help then by all means seek professional training. For the regular CCW carrier, in my opinion, the most important training is mental discipline in not drawing the weapon and not shooting. Not trying to "clear your house" when a 911 call will solve it. Not...

For the most part, save your money. NRA mag comes with membership, good for legislative issues and historical stuff. Gun Tests is actually good and I am a subscriber. Most of the others aren't worth reading if given to you free.

I have been fortunate to usually pay zero (unless you count a bottle of Chivas Regal or Forty Creek). My pal was 11Bravo in Vietnam and was an officer in a Reserve SF unit in Miami. Nothing like someone who has actually been in combat and who has also used a gun in self defense as a civilian...

Thanks guys. I plan to take one day and shoot. While wife and Dad waste money gambling.

Very interesting post, Gilberto. If you are ever in Plano, drinks are on me. I would love to hear some stories.

My dad is retired infantry. He tells me that he was taught to always fire the m60 or M2 in short bursts,usually 6 rounds. Only if being swarmed would you lay down on the trigger and their would be consequences (but not as severe as taking an AK round to the head)He calls it final protective...

thanks, Cuzzin. I will look that over.

Tom, You have my attention. However, I will be letting wifey go try out a few guns first. Will keep it in mind.

Thanks guys. My wife is a control freak. She would enjoy trying different guns. I also say lot's of little girls shooting 12 gauge. I shot SC competition for about 7 years (most of it in Fla, oneounce). I got to the point where I could do OK but I am no gun fitter. Who in the DFW area would do a...

Prayer sent.

Bingo. In 1988 as a reservist I was issued an M16 made in 1967 with who only knows how many rounds thru it. The select fire switch was locked at semi-auto. I like my Colt 6920 better.

Hi, guys. Looking for a gun for wifey. She enjoys shooting clays with me but doesn't enjoy my heavy Browining 12 gauges. I was thinking 20 gauge youth model. My wife is 5ft 2in and about 140 lbs. I know Remington used to make such a gun. Any new players in the 20 gauge market worth looking at?

Mossberg 500A. Loaded with buckshot and a few slugs for HD. Probably gonna put a SPec Ops stock on it for collapsible function and recoil.

Very nice!! I have a Mossberg 500A for HD. It is black and utilitarian. I love your guns. The wood and blued steel is my favorite. My great grandpaw and grandpaw both had similar shotguns to these.

Going to Vegas in a month. Never been before. Taking Wife and Dad. Any place good to shoot sporting clays or rifle. I am not much of a gambler.

BUT LESS LIBERAL!!! Gun Tests. Don't waste your money on any others. With THR.US/ORG, AR15.com , Firearmstactical.com etc. you don't need the gun rags. The Shotgun news will make you aware of accessories and prices that you might not otherwise even know about. Gun Tests isn't perfect but is...

That is the key, IMHO.

Y'all might like this source better. I stopped reading the gun rags (Sanow, Ayoob et. al) and now just get Gun Tests and American Rifleman. http://www.firearmstactical.com/briefs7.htm
