    Best training course(s) near Northern VA?

    Hello, I am thinking my next firearms related purchase would be money better spent on training rather than another pew pew (crazy, I know). I am getting reacquainted to competitive handgun shooting after a year long military deployment and also a CCW practitioner, so I am just looking for...

    How much safe is enough?

    FAS1, ahhh, missed that. Thanks. Still surprised at this price point that no one seems to have had a Hollon safe. Maybe it needs its own thread to be seen. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    How much safe is enough?

    a1abdj, actually your custom offerings are very interesting. I'll drop an email. Do you typically recommend a "B rate" safe for up to $10k in guns? Any thoughts to how best to arrive at each individuals "best value" in terms of bang for the buck spent? I realize you are professionally...

    How much safe is enough?

    I spent some time today poking around at different safe websites and comparing specs. I ran across a whole new possibility that I had not ever heard of before...Hollon Safes. The one that caught my eye is the Republic 45; For websites carrying this safe, look here and here. It is larger than...

    How much safe is enough?

    ...locks. Watching all of the safe education videos would drive most to buy a $3k or more, minimum. Many cannot afford that, and most do not *need* that level of protection. You could spend a lot of money and STILL get ripped off if the right thief comes your way and thinks it worth their...

    How much safe is enough?

    ...I think the central question for me is: what level of safe/RSC will more than likely stop 97% or better of any bad things happening? Just about *any* safe can be cracked by the right threat, but most of us don't have to worry about that kind of interest; we're just not worthy of it. Is...

    How much safe is enough?

    ...is a 11-gauge wall Liberty safe enough? Can I safely downgrade my safe choice to something less expensive? I am not made of money, and while I *could* afford the $4k safe in 8-9 months of saving....I would rather put the difference towards a new Dan Wesson Valor or something else if I don't...

    How best to ship a SIRT in a way that works?

    I am active duty military spending a year away from home. I bought a SIRT with the intention to train while away and come back to my new G34 ready to take on IDPA/IPSC/Whatever. That was the plan, at least. My wife shipped it to me in a box via USPS, labeled "Laser trainer", and the package...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Last night I bought a Mosin Nagant M39 Finnish SAKO from Classic Firearms, my first Mosin. I know, I know...very late to the Mosin party, but at least I got what I think is a good one before they are all gone. Thanks, ACP!

    Mosin Warhorses

    ...advice (Thank You) above plus a few YouTube videos helped me narrow down the choices. Plus, my wife's ancestry is Finnish, so this rifle became a *necessity*, not a want (right?). So, are there any must-have or advisable add-ons that I should get with it? Recoil pad? Aftermarket trigger...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Bought a couple before deploying out for a year, thinking I may not be able to buy when I get home (ironic to be military overseas to defend freedoms that I stand to lose while in harm's way). Anyway, been a life-long 1911 lover, but bought my first Glock with a non-MOS 34 model with the intent...

    Mosin Warhorses

    Just trying to buy a few last things before I get home many months from now and might be unable to get just about anything. A few specific suggestions would be great--no real purpose, just enjoying a good and unique rifle. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Mosin Warhorses

    If you all were like me and late to the Mosin crowd (and should have bought one when they were cheap, but did not), which one would you go after and where are the places you would buy it from? I am currently deployed active duty military, but I know an FFL where it can sit until I get home in...

    1911? Worth it?

    Despite being recently enticed by the promises of plastic fantastic, I shoot Steel Challenge with my STI Trojan in 45 ACP and it remains my favorite handgun. Nothing else quite shoots like a 1911 for me, despite how nice some cheaper offerings are. Just me, but I think everyone should have one...

    P320 Conversion kit for "Target" model?

    Isn't that true of any P320 conversion? Only the FCU changes over.

    P320 Conversion kit for "Target" model?

    Might get the G34 anyway and eventually have a run off between the two

    P320 Conversion kit for "Target" model?

    I'll take the silence as a "No" that no one has heard about the Sig P320 Target model being offered as a conversion kit for existing P320 owners. I thought there would be a market for this, but this thread's reaction makes me wonder otherwise. Perhaps it is time, after resisting for decades, to...
