I still own many wood stocked rifles both bolt action and semi auto. I love the look and feel of wood and a highly polished blued barrel. As for my AR rifles I enjoy shooting them as well. I own a few as well as a HK USC and a HK91. Add to that a CZ VZ58 and the ARs are but a small part of my...

I have a Super Match that was built in '93. I've yet to scope mine. Currently I have the iron sights set for combat rather than target and am shooting out to 200-300 yards. I've considered scoping it, but I'm not really keen on the mounting options. As it is I intend to do my long range shooting...

Have her hold a S&W Airweight in .38 special. You can get it in +P with a laser grip. My wife loves hers. She doesn't shoot +P through it, but it's nice to know you can if desired and the laser grip boosts her confidence level when shooting.

I own a pair of Cimarron "Evil Roy" competition model P pistols in 45 Colt. Absolute pleasures to shoot and look at. The trigger is perfection.

The HK45, or the HK45C are both exceptional pistols, they would work well for home defense and the grip can be configured to fit most any adult hand out there. I carry a HK45C. The HKs can be carried cocked and locked, or with a round in the chamber hammer down safety on and DA/SA. My wife likes...

I own one RRA DI in 5.56 with a 6.8SPCII barrel for coyote hunting. I own a Stag Arms Model 8 piston rifle as well. My piston gun is easier to clean IMHO. Both the Stag and the RRA are accurate and reliable with the DI being a tad lighter. I say to each his own. I hunt more with the RRA DI in...

One of my hog guns is a CZ550 in .308. A well made rifle in a great caliber at a reasonable price. My other hog hunter is a Browning BAR in .338 WinMag. Never got an argument from a hog when using the .338. The .308 is cheaper to shoot and practice with so it is my go to rifle for pork. It's...

I like the AR10 platform, however I shoot either an M1A Super Match or my HK 91. As a battle rifle the HK91 is my favorite due to its reliability. While not a light weapon it is lighter than my M1A and I do believe it's lighter than many AR10s out there. I use iron sights on both weapons...

I'd recommend the .308. Another consideration for California shooters is the ridiculous ban on lead bullets due to the California condor inhabiting the entire state apparently. So whatever he gets make sure he can get it in state approved ammo to fire in his state approved gun. (California has...

A friend wanted to shoot my HK USP40 to get a feel for the round and loaded my 40's magazine with some of his 9mm rounds by mistake. He pulled the trigger once before I realized what he had done. Fortunately the HK is built like a tank and nothing happened to my friend or my gun. From then on...

"44 Special I love those powerful, soft shooting little single actions. I have and like the Rugers...but I have and LOVE the Cimarrons." Like shootniron I enjoy shooting the single action revolvers especially my Cimarrons. Only I prefer the 45 Colt. I have a set of their Evil Roy Model P 5...

I generally carry a compact pistol. When carrying a subcompact it's a Kahr PM9. I haven't carried one of my .380s since Kahr produced the PM9. It's a great little pistol and has a super DAO trigger. Usually though you'd find me with my HK45C, or now that I have one the HK VP9.

When going to the grocery, or out at night for dinner I carry my Series 2 Colt Detective Special with a 2" barrel. It's light, comfortable in my Kramer IWB and I shoot it well. Otherwise I carry my HK45C in a Kramer extreme cant IWB loaded with 230 grain Hyra-Shoks. It is a single stack 10 round...

I've had no major issues with my BMag (knock on wood). It groups 1" easily at 100 yards and a little tighter if I do my part and get rid of the shakes.I wouldn't mind a laminate, or wood stock, but hey, it's a $300 gun for pete's sake. With scope my weighs in at a tad under 7 lbs. Overall I'm...

The SP101 in a 3" barrel is a good gun. I had some trigger work done on mine to lighten the pull and smooth it out and it runs great. As for appendix carry I don't think it would be very comfortable. As you well know the SP101 isn't a light weight. For deep conceal I went with the Kahr PM9. I...
