    EDC/CCW: how many rounds do YOU carry?

    5 rds in the J-Frame and 1-2 speed strips for EDC/CCW. I also find that practice (both shooting AND reloading) as well as a cool head are much more important than round count.

    Anyone have firsthand experience with the Charter Arms Southpaw?

    Am looking at left handed gun options, not ambidextrous - but one set up outright for lefties. It'll be for CC and rec shooting. I see charter Arms makes the Southpaw and would like to hear from anyone who owns and has shot one, what their thought are on the gun.

    Which of these scopes do you all think would work best for close in hunting-fast shooting situations hunting coyotes and deer - EoTec, ACOG, Leupold HAMR, or Leupold VX-R Patrol. I plan to mount the scope on either an AR or Rem 700. My longest range is about 200 yds, but average is around 80...
