Preface: This is me sharing my personal opinion from my own understanding. And this is primarily with self-defense (against humans) in mind. Also with carrying wherever you can legally do so. This includes in public, running errands, work, etc. **Not** for example, in your own home, on some...
Just general curiosity really. I have carried and trusted in my Barnes Tac-XPD for quite a number of years at this point.
Pretty simple and typical start to ownership really. I researched good defensive 9mm loads, saw ballistic tests and so on and so forth, and picked some up.
I then proceeded...
Please note: I am deliberately NOT mentioning a brand name here, because that will immediately sidetrack all discussion into arguments about that and other brand names. This is about personal tastes and aesthetics, which are not unique matters to any particular make, market niche, or model.

They are putting together a 50th year reunion for the Coast Guard Academy class of ’74. I had a color vision problem so didn’t pass the medical and was sent home, but they still had me on the list of classmates and tracked me down. Brought back some memories.
It was a different world back...
Hey guys,
I picked up a PSA Dagger (9mm) with an rmr optic cut and I'm going to get a red dot for it.
What distance should I zero my dot at? I was thinking 7-10 yards.
Any pros or cons for zeroing at a certain distance?
This gun will mainly be used for idpa, but also a backup defensive...
Hey all,
I'm looking into doing a handgun stabilizer build for my brother for Christmas. Both are from Delta Team Tactical. One is the CAA MCKP80 (linked below) while the other is the Recover 20/80 (also linked below). Looking over them and from what I can gather they are solid. Anyone...
Hi, I'm new to this forum. I'm looking for a semi-automatic 9mm pistol. My maximum budget is 500 dollars but I want to spend 400 or less. I haven't really looked at guns over 400.
The best I can find that are legal in California are the Ruger Security 9, SAR B6C, and Beretta APX.
The Smith &...
Wife said she wants me to get something fun for xmas …I said tired of my 10/22 in the woods and wanted to use a pistol. Was thinking Mark IV, then leaned more to the browning buckmark, then SW …had the opportunity (and in these times availability is a premium) to go get a buckmark 7 1/4 bull...
Greetings to all!

- Barrel smaller than 4"

I know the P229, and the CZ 75 P01 meet this criteria...
Hey, new user here and was looking for some clarification. I currently have a handgun at an FFL, that I guess doesn't ship many handguns because they don't want to do any of the paperwork to ship my handgun to another FFL. Meaning they want me to print/pay for the USPS shipping label and give...
This can be for rifles, shotguns, pistols, muzzleloader, or any other type of firearm that you bought that end up being far more used or not used than you thought they would be when you initially bought them.
I am not a shooter, I no longer shoot for fun, although I hope that will change as my...
To whom it may concern,
I'm a little new to cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner so forgive me if the questions sound dumb. Do you have to take sights off of guns to clean them in the fluid, I heard it will pull off the white paint from them. Also if I can put them in the fluid, can you place...
Hi guys. I’m new to the forum and live in Delaware. I’m a relatively new shooter and currently only have a S&W Victory 0.22 Target Pistol. I have gotten very comfortable with it and have improved my accuracy at the range, even shooting at some IDPA competitions which is a ton of fun. I have...
Hey guys, this is my first post ever. I have come across a problem with my carry ammo. It seems to collect a lot of lint (as does my gun and holster). I just replaced my old ammo with some really nice federal HST ammo. I’m worried that after a few months of carry this new ammo will start looking...
Howdy
Usually threads are posted with comparison between calibers or questions about what can you do with certain caliber.
My question today is: what you cannot do with a 357 magnum that will require you to go for a bigger caliber? In other words where does the line end for the 357 magnum...
This going to be kind of a long post. I went today to look at some rifles as I wanted to Expand the arsenal. A Tikka t3 in 270 caught my eye and I asked to handle it real quick.
He politely handed it to me and he noticed I was left handed and he said “oh well you don’t want that let me get...
Hi, I want to know the laws concerning carrying a handgun in your car. I live in Louisiana and my parent has a licensed handgun that is left in my car with me for safety, but I am only 17 and not licensed for any type of gun. Is it illegal for me to have that gun with me in my car and be...
