    Shooting the 10-22 today

    I managed to get time away from the golf course today to shoot a couple of new ammo types through the 10-22, it's just a 25 yard indoor range so I couldn't shoot off a bench or bipod, just barricade style. Anyway I'm testing ammo to see what is worth trying at 50 yards the next time I can get to...

    Francotte Martini Henry

    Well I'm investigating my little 1/2 size Martini rifle in .300 Sherwood that I imported from South Africa about 10 years ago. I'll tell you what I know and maybe someone can help with what I don't. The .300 Sherwood was a decent target and rook rifle cartridge in it's day, invented by Westley...

    I Found the Best IWB Holster for a full size carry gun

    The Crossbreed Freedom Carry. Well at the least it's the best for me. I've recently wanted move to my Springfield Xdm 5.25 Competition for a full size carry gun with a Streamlight TLR-6 light/laser, previously this was my bedside table gun and I had considered it to be too big to carry. I'm...

    New S&W 380EZ Performance Center

    I like this pistol! I've had a standard model 380EZ for a while and found it to be reasonably accurate for a small frame pistol with a decent trigger and of course easy to manipulate. On my standard model I have added the Hi-viz H3 tritium/FO sights and been very pleased with the whole package...

    Springer Precision Slide Racker Review

    I know, if I was a real man I wouldn't use one of these, but I bought one anyway for my Xdm 5.25 Competition that sits in the nightstand. Springer Precision makes these for the Xd/dm/Glocks/M&P's at least, maybe some more. These make racking the slide so easy, and if for some reason you had to...

    My Truck gun set up

    I thought I would show my current iteration of my truck gun and see what others are using, keeping in mind I always have a pistol on also, usually a full size Sig P320 RX when I'm travelling. My requirement was 5.56/.223 chambered, light, simple and as short as possible. This is my well used...

    My AR-15 Pistol Build so Far

    I got started anyway. The lower receiver is a Yankee Hill YHM-15, CMC parts kit and a CMC 3.5 lb. straight trigger. I've got an SBA3 brace that should be in this weekend so I can finish it off. The upper is a 10.5" PSA, carbine length gas system, MOE m-lok handguard, A2 front and m-bus rear...

    New Sig

    I've been thinking about one of these since they first came out, I had a chance to try out a friends full size with standard sights and decided to go ahead. It's the Sig P320 RX, suppressor height night sights and the Romeo red dot. We're having a bit of weather this weekend so probably be...

    New Beretta

    Ok, so it's almost useless as a pistol, but it was so cute, and my wife actually likes .32 in a mid size pistol. This is a new 81FS, 12 rounds, although number 11 and 12 are really tough to stuff in the mag. I'll try to get it out to the range next week and see how it does.

    A comment on Doo-dads

    Why do people have to always denigrate something that is fixed up nicely, I've seen a lot of comments along the lines of ".. I like mine without all them useless doo-dads hanging off the gun". In fact a lot of "them doo-dads" are very useful and sometimes I feel like a new shooter would look at...

    Upgraded the XDM

    Well I got the Powder River drop in trigger kit in this week for my XDM 5.25, and finally sat down this evening to install it. Keep in mind I'm pretty ham fisted with anything mechanical so I launched into it with a lot of trepidation. Even a caveman could do this! Feels excellent but of course...

    New optic for my Grendel

    Well I got back from golfing today and had a sale email from Midway USA on Zeiss optics, so I had to spend some money. These are demo units, but for a couple of hundred off I'm willing to live with a minor blemish in the tube. I've got an Alexander Arms24" 6.5 Grendel upper I've been shooting...

    New Ruger

    Don't know if anyone saw the email specials from CDNN this morning, but they had Ruger No. 1's in 9.3 x 74R for $799. Not like I needed another rifle but just couldn't pass that up. Now I just need to decide what to scope it with.

    A note on the 6.5 Grendel

    Took my new AA 24" 6.5 Grendel out hunting this past week for the first time with success, it may be my new favorite deer and pig gun. I don't have pics of all the dead animals, sorry for those that like that. I was shooting the 123gr. SST loads, one broadside on a spike at 105 yards left a...

    New AR Upper Arrived - 6.5 Grendel

    Well I was shopping at Midway online the other day for some ammo on sale, then I saw the AA 24" upper on sale. One thing led to another and out came the Amex card. And then they even had the 6.5 Hornady SST ammo on sale, it's as if it was just meant to be. I've actually been thinking about one...

    Quick review of the Witness Pavona .380

    My youngest daughter, being somewhat fashion minded, wanted something other than a black pistol for her carry gun. She just got her Texas CHL in January and has been carrying a Walther PPS 9 in 9mm, although she has gotten reasonably proficient with it at 5 yards she still has not mastered the...

    About my Sig X6 ...

    My youngest daughter wanted to go shooting this morning so we met at an indoor range about halfway between our houses. I brought a Witness Elite Match in .40, XDM 5.25" in 9mm, and the X6 in 9mm. We weren't doing fast mag dumps, but shooting pretty quickly (maybe 10 rounds in 18-20 seconds)as...
