    How far out are shooting your .357?

    Let me know if I might be able to offer a suggestion or two regarding shooting up here in the northstate. Although I don't shoot or hunt as much as I used to (old age creeping up) I grew up in a shooting, hunting, military family from Siskiyou County so I've been doing that stuff for the past...

    Just curious how many dual EDC?

    Only one. A 9mm semi auto behind hip IWB. Usually carry one spare mag. I figure I'm lucky to keep track of one firearm, let alone two or three.

    Ruger Sp101 kaboom.

    Wow, that brings back memories. The same thing happened to my Ruger SP101, .357, spurless hammer about 11 years ago, except the top strap just bowed but didn't blow apart. When I brought the frame with the cylinder split in two pieces and remaining four rounds of ammo to my gunsmith, he...

    Did you teach your daughters to shoot?

    Yes indeed. With a CZ bolt action .22lr when she was 11 years old. And she still enjoys shooting as a 24 year old.

    Lever Action Rifle Recommendation

    If you're willing to spend a bit more, I'd consider a Chiappa lever gun. I have the model 92 rifle in .38/.357 and it's a sweet shooter that's pretty to look at. With 180 grain Buffalo Bore .357s it packs a punch out to 100 yards. And the recoil is very tame. Plus it feeds most .38s (longer...

    Wheel Guns for Aging Gun Toters

    I started using my Ruger SP101 .357 with 2" barrel and spurless hammer about 15 years ago as my primary CCW and still love it. While my Sig P239 (9mm) and Kahr P380 (.380) are nice shooters, I just like having that mini-tank on my hip.

    School me on rifles in 38/357

    The Chiappa 1892 lever action 20" rifle chambered in .357/.38 is FUN to shoot. You've got to keep track of the OAL when using .38s, but otherwise no issues.

    Jumped to the .380 platform this weekend.

    Congratulations on a very nice looking pistol. I carried a Beretta 85FS for years and loved that gun. Now I'm carrying a Kahr P380.
