    30-06 powders?

    H4350 is a great powder for 165 grain class bullets in 30-06.

    Some thoughts on the M&P Bodyguard 380

    Another 100 rounds downrange through the Bodyguard 380 today... still 100% reliable and crazy accurate. All Winchester White Box ammo today.

    Convicted For Building Guns; Judge says, “Do not bring the Second Amendment into this courtroom”

    Reads like solid grounds for a case dismissal to me... Judge comes right out and says he doesn't recognize the Constitution as the law, I'd say he could be stripped of his robe and thrown off the bench with prejudice... given a competent and willing attorney for the defense. A mistrial at the...

    S&W M&P “All Metal” Pistols

    If they're aluminum (or alloys of aluminum), I'll stick to plastic. I'd rather have plastic with a steel chassis than aluminum anything for a pistol. And yes, coming full circle, to keep selling them.

    4x vs 6x

    I ended up at 1.5 - 5x (Leupold VX3i)... never could decide, so I split the difference.

    Pocket holster for cargo pockets

    Seems it would flop around on my leg too much for me, even if the holster was snug in the pocket unless the pants were awful snug... and I can't do snug pants, my job is too physically active for that, gotta be able to climb, crawl, bend, etc. (flatbed truck driver, not a pole dancer)...

    Spring/Summer Carry? Missing My LCPII ☹️

    Snappy micro 380's... Yes, they're a little snappy, but not as bad as 9mm in a small P365, at least not for me. They'll never be comfy or fun to shoot, they're too short and thin for that, but they're comfy and fun to carry. Power...380 is plenty, a couple rounds in the face is pretty much a...

    Spring/Summer Carry? Missing My LCPII ☹️

    Any micro single stack 380 auto should do. My choice is the S&W Bodyguard 380, but there are others the same size. Carries so easy I truly forget its there, so I always carry it, every day.

    Carry Safety

    GUN TYPE... Only guns with LOOOONG, HEAVY trigger pulls should be carried in a pocket or purse...but... read any thread about pocket 380's and you'll quickly see this is nobody's priority. Most glorify how much better the triggers are on some models with shorter lighter pulls, and poopoo...

    .280 AI?

    About 100 fps, brass lasts longer, and that's about it. I've been shooting 280 AI for several years now, hunting deer and coyotes, and its been great. I've never fired a bullet lighter than 160 grains through it, as it is primarily a longer range setup. The not very popular 7mm Remington...

    Display your .38S&W & .32S&W Revolvers

    Finally made it home to post this... if y'all have any info on what exact model it is I'd appreciate it... the finish is rough on the frame, but it is tight and fully functional, I've never shot it...chambered in 32 Long. Serial #75765

    Display your .38S&W & .32S&W Revolvers

    I have an old hand ejector chambered in 32 long, my uncle gave it to me years ago... I'm really not sure of the exact version it is, it's really old though.... still tight and in great working order but does have some finish wear on it. I've never shot it... and I'd post a pic if I had ever...

    Some thoughts on the M&P Bodyguard 380

    The slide has never failed to lock back when empty on either ammo.
