Certified trauma nurse here - We don't use it in the hospital, but we can deliver 15 - 25 units of blood while a surgeon finds and stops the bleeding. It is an excellent product and I have been following it's use for several years. As a paramedic noted above, the only thing you have in the...

This shouldn't be citizens against LEO's - I trust anyone who has been "permitted", whether they are LEO or private citizen. I don't trust those who think they know who should be "allowed" to have a weapon. This bill is a step towards what should be - weapons carry by State citizens...

In Tennessee, my friends and I have "worked the line" when municipalities began buy back programs. Believe it or not, there were Lever guns, old WWII .45's and lots of junk. We quietly worked the rear and sides of the line, offering people $50 so they wouldn't "have to wait in line". We...

I have big hands but short fingers, so I will probably add the new 21SF to my stable. Yes, the difference is subtle, but I could tell it the instant I picked up the weapon. In fairness, all the Glocks have too much "palm swell" on the grip for my taste, but I love Glocks! The 21sf reduces the...

If they don't trust me with guns, I don't trust them at all! So, I ONLY vote for pro gun candidates. :)

Took her to the range today - Limited recoil, surprising accuracy and FAST handling ( 16" barrel ). So far I'm limited to the one mag that came with the gun, but no stoppages and no feeeding problems. I fired Remington .223, Black Hills and Wolf ammo. The gun digested anything I threw at it...

wasz - I bought it and brought it home. Good balance, excellent price. You get a 10 round magazine an oiler and a self-contained cleaning kit. I love the way it handles. Did not get to shoot it yet! Looking on the net for magazines, they are pricey but readily available. As someone else...

I can't answer your questions yet, but I am going to pick up a Saiga .223 today. Hopefully, I can tell you more later. :)

Inside. There is a lip that holds it in place as you draw I have been very satisfied with a Fobus paddle ( I carry my Glock 21 daily ). I have been less impressed with a Houston paddle I bought for a smaller pistol. The paddle "lip" does not always keep the holster in place when I draw. :)

An ATF stooge conned him into sawing off a shotgun for a large sum of money - they wanted to "turn him" so they could go after some weird white supremicists. In other words, the Government convinced him to commit a crime so they could get at someone else. Every LEO I have discussed this case...

Yes - at the very minimum. Look for new restrictions on the number of weapons you can purchase, as well the types. The ban on magazines will be back first, I predict. Most importantly, look for EPA restrictions on lead bullets and increased ATF restrictions on all firearms. Worst, look for...

Gas block - poor tolerances is the short answer to your query. The newest Mini's have a very definite improvement in gas block shaping and fitting. The accuracy is VASTLY improved. A good gunsmith can improve a Mini's accuracy dramatically as well. However, it is a ranch rifle and was never...

The NY Times is essentially toilet paper. Wait, that won't work ! It's already full of .... well, you know. If it's in the Times, it can't possibly be true. Does anybody ( besides John Kerry ) still read that rag? If we ignore it, it WILL go away. :uhoh:

Your 20 ga set up sounds about perfect to me While I have 12, 16 and .410 shotguns, I have always found a 20 ga side by side is the gun I use most often to hunt birds. Much like you, I limit the ranges I shoot, and rarely use dogs. The only difference I have ever found between the 12 and 20...

Done. We're still up so far... Everybody help!
