    Rossi vs Charter Arms

    So I check with my local Academy Sports today to see how sparse ammo was and was sorta surprised to see plenty of .38 spl ammo in Monarch or WWB. I mainly carry a 642 so thats cool. No .357/9mm/.45/.22 LR...although the clerk admitted they had lots of 9mm in the morning after the Friday shipment...

    Taurus Brings Back the M445 in .44spl?

    Just saw this on their catalogue for 2011: http://www.taurususa.com/2011newcatalog/?catalog_page=11 I have an M85 I'm VERY pleased with and would be inclined to try this out (vs buying a Charco). Anyone have any experiences with this?

    An Excellent Article on CCW - From the ChiTrib

    I also posted this in a narrowly focused thread on the discussion regarding Illinois CCW - but its also relevant to the broader community: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/art...ns_109401.html One of the most coherent articles on CCW I've seen. ie : "The record of the past two decades...

    9mm Silver Bear 145gr. HP

    My normal rule is "Commie ammo for Commie guns" ie - the Bears's etc for my Bulgy Mak or my WASR10. But at under $12/box for this stuff, I'm tempted to run some of this thru my G19. Its non-corrosive but steel cased. Any pro's/con's? Extractor issues? Anybody have any experience with it? All...

    ACLU Brings Case in favour of Greencard Holder for CHL

    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/01/06/new-aclu-lawsuit-expand-south-dakota-gun-rights/ Didn't think it varied this much from State-to-State. Living in Texas as a greencard holder, I was buying guns and got my CHL 3 years before my citizenship and nobody blinked. Or maybe Texas just wanted...

    Anything in Favour of a Side-By-Side?

    Had an old Higgins that I sold to my uncle some time ago, have been without a shotgun for some time. Was thinking of getting a classic double to get back into it. Any serious pros/cons (except price) over a pump? Even been looking at YILDIZ O/U shotguns at Academy. My primary uses would...

    Houston Storeowner Stops 3 Robbers

    "Stops" as in kills in a gunbattle. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/7343008.html Seems like two basic lessons here pretty much applicable to everyone: 1) Have a firearm available (ie in process of being tied up, storeowner pulls a pistol from concealment kills...

    Speer GD Short Barrel 9mm 124gr +P

    The same brand has a good rep in .38/.357 so I guess this is aimed at the compact 9mm crowd (Kahr...etc?). So I saw a bunch of boxes at Gander Mtn of the 9mm short barrelled version. Now currently I'm carrying the non-bonded version of the Golden Sabre 124 +P round for CHL duty in my G19...

    Double Speedloader Carrier Recommendations?

    Did a search under Accessories and under the Revolver Section but nothing popped out. Misplaced a nylon S/L carrier I had...so... I'm looking for a double speedloader carrier, so far the best candidate looks like a rig from El Paso Saddlery . But I'm open to other opinions. I already have...

    Wild Turkey...in Ontario?

    http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/ontario/the-return-of-the-wily-wild-turkey/article1750635/ I had always thought WT were a pretty challenging game animal, but they must be pretty tough given the semi-urban environment in Southern Ontario, Canada.

    What Is It About the 10mm??

    Everytime I read some post about the 10mm it ends up being a post saying the 10mm is just a bit short of this: I mean - 40 cal on steriods makes it have that much of a cult following? Or is it because it may be that rare pistol calibre that can easily cross between urban self-defense...

    Those That Carry a Makarov...

    ....might be interested in the latest Buffalo Bore offering: http://www.buffalobore.com/index.php?l=product_detail&p=220 I mean, people carrying .380's are probably doing worse.
