    1911 carry without a thumb break

    I have carried a 1911 in a non-strapped holster for years. With a good quality holster it shouldn't be a problem. I feel it is so secure that a gymnast could wear one through his routine and the gun still be in place.

    anyone ever heard of either of these...

    I once sold an 18" German bayonet at a gun show that had a crude wooden scabbard (My Manufacture). The next time I went to the show I saw it identified as a Japanese bayonet, acquired and used by the Phillipine resistance. So who knows what you saw.

    Using Airsoft for Self Defense Training/Practice

    I use an Airsoft 1911 for target practice in my home. I have a target with three, reducing in size, targets that go down when hit. When you shoot the last and smallest target, they all automatically reset. I feel it is excellent home training just like dry firing. Several of the training...

    Shooting Home Robber in the Back

    Fla. Concealed Carry License laws I am a Floridian with a CCL. My understanding of the law is, yes you can shoot a home invader because if he invades your home it is very likely that he means to harm you and/or your family. The Fl CCW law permits deadly force whenever you have reason to...

    When you decide to carry concealed, you should make up your mind to make your wardrobe fit your gun, not the gun fit your wardrobe.

    New York to Florida ...

    Due to the laws in NJ, MD and DC, I would drive west to I-75 and go south that way. Except for SC (Which is questionable), provided you have a Fl CWL you should be OK.

    SW1911 Extractor

    I have never had a problem with mine and after many readings of gun forums, I don't recall any problems with S&W, now there have been a plethora of problems with Kimbers, so much so that Kimber quit making External extractirs and is changing existing guns to Internal Extractors.

    Sign the Petition against the Assault Weapons Ban!

    It is my understanding that internet petitions are ignored, someone could sign an unlimited number of times with different names. What is effective is writing or calling your legislators.

    Shooting in Florida

    The article said he was charged but there was no mention of whether or not he was convicted. Many of our self defense shootings here in the Gunshine State result in Felony Charges but the shooter is not convicted.
