    Best 9mm revolver for EDC -or- just stay with my 357

    I mostly agree, I have 2 Ruger SS's and could see doing 1 of them. Ultimately it's kind of a waste of $ and that's why I haven't sent one in. A shirt pocket works good for carrying moon clips. I can de-moon my Ruger Redhawk 45 acp clips easily by hand. But don't have any 1st hand experience...

    Best 9mm revolver for EDC -or- just stay with my 357

    I shoot a lot of 9mm and have been tempted to send one of my Ruger Security Six revolvers to TK Custom and have them machine the cylinder to accept 9mm moon clips. https://tkcustom.com/pages/machining-ruger I briefly owned a Charter Arms Mag Pug - my 1st and last Charter Arms. Note their...

    Handgun Pictures

    A friend came over to shoot the over day. The Sig 229 and Beretta 92 are his. The can and the rest (CZ75, Glock 43X, PSA Dagger Compact, and PSA Dagger Micro) are mine.

    Seems logical, maybe?

    I would think that your accuracy would be effected negatively by using different bullet styes in the same cylinder.

    Carry Options... Is your gun "shootable" under stress?

    I went and watched those videos. I don't know who you're talking to but there is no way a single officer watching or taking part any of those videos would suddenly say "I want a 6 shot revolver in a gun fight." My reaction watching those 2 videos is, why did no one grab an AR15? Yes I understand...

    Mare's leg type guns- why?

    Over the years, I've read articles where another Winchester Baby Carbine or Special Short Carbine "Trapper" is found in a barn somewhere. It seems they have a specific exemption from the ATF and are not deemed a SBR. "You" all can dig into the legality. Doing a quick google search just now, I...

    Mare's leg type guns- why?

    You can get a bit a of a cheek weld on the Rossi Ranch Hand. Not so much with the more expensive Henry Mare's Leg. Looks like Rossi no longer sells them. Looking on Gunbroker, there is 1 357 Rossi Ranch Hand for sale. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1049195786 There are 2 45 Colt Rossi's on...

    Mare's leg type guns- why?

    The Canadians put full stocks on them. https://marstar.ca/product/chiappa-1892-357-mag-alaskan-takedown-12/ I'd love a Mare's leg or Shockwave with a full stock. Short, light, and handy. https://marstar.ca/product/mossberg-590a1-class-iii-14%e2%80%b3-12-gauge-shotgun-3%e2%80%b3-pump-blk-51689/...

    Carry Concealment

    Practice how you carry. I don't own a shot timer but my neighbor a local County Deputy does. When I shoot with him we shoot for time / hits on gongs. When shooting with him I practice drawing from concealment. Which for me means either starting with my off hand on the bottom of my cover shirt...

    Carry Concealment

    I was just over at Bass Pro last week buying 3 more Cover / Carry shirts - plaid short sleeve button down. I have a Bass Pro credit card, used my points, and walked out with 3 of these shirts for $16 total. These are great for when I want to carry OWB with an untucked shirt. I might or might not...

    Carry Options... Is your gun "shootable" under stress?

    I also don't shoot well with J-Frame snubby 38's. I refuse to carry a point blank "get off me" gun as a primary handgun. If I cant hit at 25yds with it, to me it's not worth carrying.

    Carry Options... Is your gun "shootable" under stress?

    What do you wear for a shirt? I find an untucked short sleeve button down shirt is easiest to conceal with. Polo Shirts cloth or UnderArmor nylon are more difficult to conceal with. Try a Crossbreed belly band holster with a slim single or double stack 9mm. They position your gun above your...

    Carry Options... Is your gun "shootable" under stress?

    25yds is my back deck to my 10 inch steel gongs. I practice at that distance with my 2 carry guns - Glock 43X carried OWB and pocket carried Ruger LC9s Pro. I'll frequently have friends over to shoot off the deck. I'll sit there and ring my gongs all day long with my handguns while they...

    Carry Safety

    I moved to a Glock 43X as my primary ccw gun. However, I was still using those Glock Sport Holsters for my G26 & G19's up to just a few years ago. They work well.
