There are many things that go into accuracy when it comes to shooting a handgun(or any type of firearm) No-one will argue that learning trigger control and tons of practice are huge componants of becoming proficiant with your handgun. It has also been proven that strengthening your grip will...

I carry everyday. In fact, the boss supplies the weapons...and a badge...so I suppose the question doesn't really pertain to me huh

if you were "harrassed" by the local cops for being a felon then its pretty obvious are you are being mistaken for said felon through the check - Its a matter of verifying your name, middle name, date of birth, physicals, etc - Its actaully not a long process - look at how fast the local fuzz...

Sounds to me like the "old man" is just a bit jealous - He probably is embarassed over the fact that you can outshoot him with his own guns. Its sad that people's narrow minded opinions cause them to say stupid things. I owned a Kahr .45 - Far from being a "ladies" gun - Not only did it...

I in no way mean to critisize or judge the poster here - I think we can all learn by considering this situation and putting ourselves in his place. Lets take it a step further...I think one needs to take into consideration tactics on how to calm oneself down to the point of being able to keep a...

gun shows are no fun up this way either - I used to be able to go in and make a few trades or pick things up at decent prices - now its really rare - and its funny - i quit going for about 4 years...when i went to my first one again a few months ago I saw some of the same guns on the same tables...

i think one needs to consider what they are going to use their gun for based on its limitations, and then decide if they can live within those limitations. Personally i prefer to carry a full or midsized gun. I like knowing i can shoot the gun well and also enjoy the idea of carrying more then...

ND isn't too bad either - We dont have the best laws (restrictions on bars and gaming establishments) But we do have open carry(Not seen alot) and the permits are easy to get - Alot of people are getting CCW - its become quite common. There's a pretty big gun culture here. Its an old...

FN 5.7 - just can't justify the price for the gun and ammo since i would probably only use it once or twice :(

I can't think of one time a sniper would use a red laser - It not a part of tactical training or doctrine - it does give a position away - so do shiny rifles and watches for that matter - Lasers are a huge psycological tool however - due mostly to TV most people are scared to death of lasers...

iv sold one gun without disclosing a jamming issue - I have felt guilty about it ever since. It was a cheap little .22 that jammed at least once a mag - I sold it at a gun show and wished ever since that I would have kept it and just used it as a conversation piece(or a paperweight) Since then...

I keep lint and dust off all pocket guns and usually wipe down my other carry pieces weekly. I usually don't use oil to wipe down a gun unless its going to be put away for awhile. The finish on most modern guns can handle the day to day wear - and I don't like the idea of having a bunch of oil...

im pretty lucky on the wife front - mine gave up on me awhile ago. She has decided that what i do with my guns is my business, as long as i dont dip into the budget and dont buy anything too expensive too often. She has pretty much said that "It's your stuff...You know what your doing" The...

thanks- good to know - im not much of a revolver expert and just dont want to get a bad sqeeze - will look forward to learning more about this one - thanks again!

another .38 - Should i buy it?? Just found this today - needed more info before i decide to buy - A) .38 Special / blued B) Don't have a measuring tape but think its about a 2-incher C) flat grip/square has wood grips with round S&W insert at top of grip - not sure of the original...
