I disagree with you on this one. Safeties should be off when the gun is out. If you have it out, it is because you are ready to use it. There are many examples of people missing their manual safeties during stressful events. This is one of the resons so many service pistols have no external...

There are plenty of great ones here: http://www.onesourcetactical.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=190

I would suggest the Infidel Media Products. They have all kinds of great stuff. http://www.onesourcetactical.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=190

Dude, I had a little laugh when I saw the headline on this forum. I used to live down in MIA and would run into those guys at most of the major intersections from North Miami Beach out to Hollywood. It was a bit freaky seeing some of these guys passing out their papers. I remember getting...

I would guess that the transfer bar is made of a weaker material to absorb the wear of the hammer falling. Think of all those parts getting smashed every time the hammer falls down onto them. It is moving with quite a bit of force and that energy has to be absorbed or transferred into...

Is the .357 under-rated these days? - I would say yes. It does not seem to be getting the respect in self defense by many people. Those who have been there and done that (BTDT) it is quite capable. I just have a few observations in regards to the .357 mag. .357 Power for hunting big...

The Magtech ammo I had was very hot (when compared to Blazers and WWB). I had some feed problems with my CD EFS 1911 and the Magtech was hot enough to really thrown the slide back and cycled in every time. The lighter Blazers would get stuck halfway. Better recoil spring helped. My was just...

I've sold a firearm on Gunbroker with the "No CA Sale" clause. There are a few reasons (good, bad or ugly this is why): 1. I don't know if my FFL will ship to CA. 2. I diddn't know if my Firearm was listed on the "Approved List". 3. I don't like the gun laws there in CA and don't want...

Check out some of the classes from Suarez International. http://www.suarezinternational.com/tech.html You might not find exactly the course you are looking for in one session, but putting a few of these together would still be cheaper than what your original post is showing. I would suggest...

This is the submachinegun used in Chris Ryan's Elite World Cops - Kazakhstan. It has a very unique action/barrel combination. Can anyone help identify what this weapon is?

Hoping that someone can help me identify this Glock Holster. It looks like it would work well when backpacking. I like the flap to keep out the dirt, yet it doesn't look like a holster.

Handgun & Rifle Don't know what you want to do with your purchase (other than defend your house). I would get a Glock 17, 9mm for the pistol. You can still find them used online at different shops for resonable prices (about $400). Then for the rifle, I would go with a Remington 870 pump...

Firm but tight is a good way to do it. Anytime you are doing something with the pistol (shooting/loading/chamber check) you should tighten up a bit on the hold. You should have a good tight grip while that magazine is going in. That will prevent the gun from slipping away when you smack the...

I would also second the training with Rob Pincus. He also has some great videos if you don't have extra cash for the training. This is personal defense focus shooting, but a lot of the tips will carry over to target shooting. Consistent grip, consistent stance and becoming more familiar with...

People are getting freaked out about a new AWB again. This is what happens. I figured that something like this would happen and I picked up a nice Saiga 16" over the summer. I've always been impressed with the quality on these rifles. Sure they are not very pretty, but they are solid (mine...
