I have a quick question. Is the Pearce +2 extension for the Glock 26 reliable? Does it negatively effect the performance of the gun in any way. My wife has decided that she want's a 26 for her CCH. She also wants a little more grip. So, I thought the Pearce extension might be a pretty good...

I have limited knowledge of optics for rifles. I'm an iron sights guy when I shoot. It is an easier transition from handgun shooting on the rare occasion that I actually shoot a rifle. So, forgive me if this is an idiotic question. My father in law is having trouble seeing the front sight...

Let me say sorry right away. Sorry. There are no pictures available because I forgot to charge my cell phone last night. Me and a friend decided to test out the penetration and expansion of a few rounds. With winter coming clothing is changing. So, why not see which rounds do through local...

One of my friends needs a stock for his Browning A5. Where is the cheapest place to find a drop in replacement?

I posted a picture of Talo 1911 on my FB page today. My caption simply said that it was a beautiful piece of work. A "friend" that I haven't seen in two years decided to post saying, "Guns are bad, mmmk." That illicited a response from my mother. She was polite and informed him that gun's...

My wife likes the idea of a SP101 with a 3" barrel. She is considerring one in .357magnum. My question is, how much of a ballistic advantage does a .357mag really have in a 3" barrel? From what I've seen the difference is only about 100 - 120ft/sec.

I haven't had a chance to read this yet. I am copying and pasting first. This was sent out by the major at our department. This is regarding HB 650 that was signed in to law and becomes effective 12-1-11. S.L. 2011-268 (H 650): Self-defense and guns. Effective for offenses committed on or...

I was reading the manual for my P-07. In the manual it says the rear sights are drift adjustable. What does that mean? I've heard of fixed, adjustable for windage, and adjustable for elevation. All of those usually involve turning a screw. I have never heard of drift adjustable and I see no...

I did some low light practice draws with my P-07 this afternoon. The white dot sight was nearly impossible to see. I'm not talking about pitch black light levels. It was more of a twighlight level. I had semi-thick curtains pulled over the windows. The sun was shining directly against the...

I posted this in my CZ P-07 thread. However, some of you may not follow that thread. So, I reposted the relevant bits for the general public. . . .I just completed a thorough amatuer expansion test of the Winchester Ranger Bonded 147gr round. I shot three rounds in to bottles of...

So, tell me about Federal Hi-Shok HPs. It seems almost impossible to find much information about them. I saw an old test from 1998 (iirc) and they didn't seem to perform well through fabric. The specifics weren't given though. The results just said "bare" and "cloth" the cloth numer was 19". I...

Okay, I was in Walmart tonight and saw 115gr Federal range ammo for less than $12 with tax. Is this stuff reliable and reasonably clean? I know their cheap 22LR stuff made me :cuss: Since I'm going to be breaking in a new CZ P-07 this week I was thinking of getting a box each of 115gr...

Okay, I'm still tossing around what I want for my first auto-loader. I have a self imposed limit of $400 for various reasons. That knocked a few contenders out of the running. I'm going to list the group and let you guys tear them apart or praise them. I was suprised what I found for $370 -...

Okay, it is a brighter day in NC. The state house has passed bill 650. A lot of things are going to get better for gun owners if the govenor signs it. At least that is what we are being told. I tried reading through it and I understood some of it. A lot of it revises other laws. So, with out...

I heard that the early P-07s had issues with the magazine releasing. I also read of a couple failing to return to battery with 115gr ammo. Front sight paint also seemed to be a problem area. Has CZ corrected these issues since the introduction? My wife is getting me a gun for our anniversary...

Has anyone ever purchased ammo from USA Ammo? I know a lot of their stuff is remanufactured. They do sell new stuff as well and the prices are really pretty darn good. Does anybody have experience with these guys? Does anybody know which bullets they use to manufacture their hollow points...

I ran in to a license check this morning while taking my kid to pre-school. I wanted to post and see if anyone else has had a similar experience. While I was waiting in the line of cars I reached in to my pocket and pulled out my wallet. I retrieved my license and carry permit. I then tossed...

I saw a short blurb about Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel ammo the other week. It said that there were variations in 9mm, .38spl, and .22WMR. Now, in my travels I have ran across the first two. I have never seen the .22wmr for sale anywhere. Is the .22wmr available yet? IF so has anybody tested...

This happened about three weeks ago. I wanted to post it up earlier. However I waited to get the official all clear first. I was finally told that no charges would be pressed. So, now I will discuss. It was a Saturday afternoon at the local monster-mega-warehouse club. The parking lot was...

Is there really any advantage to carrying a semi-jacketed hollow point round for self defense? I was talking to a friend that use to be the weapons specialist for a small police department. He said that he always encouraged guys to carry SJHPs in their back up .38spls. His reasoning was, if...
