bannockburn, I appreciate the thought you put into your response. I agree that a High Power clone would work very well for the intended purpose - I haven't seen one for sale in my AO for quite a spell. Again - thanks for the kind words and for the post. cheers tire iron

I have been searching for a solution to a need that I had identified for myself – and I am happy to report that I have succeeded in filling that need. What I needed was a handgun that I would leave in my vehicle. It would spend its entire life in my vehicle. It would not be a “carry piece”...

c_yeager, So the rumors of you being a cyclops are FALSE??!!??!! :what: brownie, Thanks for the kind words - and I agree - the distances will be different for eveyone - and I suspect that they are different for the same individual as they progress along the "skill path". np...

There seems to be two different schools of thought when it comes to the use – or lack of use – of sights when it comes to handguns. One group states that unless you use the sights – you won’t hit what you want to hit. This group is known as “Front Sight” shooters. Note that this term has...

I received a “Liger” gun belt from Tim @ Maxpedition just about a month ago. Tim sent it to me to T&E. I was initially very skeptical about its use as a CCW belt after viewing pictures of it. I voiced my opinion that I thought the buckle was too unconventional looking to avoid attracting...

RevDisk Yeah - too bad we can't have some of the "newer" toys!! Thanks for the pic! chevrofreak Cool lookin AK! Thanks for posting! chopinbloc Thanks for the kind words. Regarding Magpul's - some like - some don't. For me the jury is still "out" with the AK Magpul...

I have always been a fan of the AKM. I like its lighter weight compared to the AK. (If you remember – AK-47 which was type classified in 1947 and has a milled steel receiver – and weighs approximately 9.46 pounds. The AKM uses a lighter stamped steel receiver – and weighs approximately 6.9...
