    Glock 19 or 26

    I agree, easy choice with the G19. Not too big that you can't carry it (I have and do), but not so small that its not enjoyable to bring to the range.

    Top Shot - Season 3

    I have no qualms admitting that I loved the previous two seasons of Top Shot. I loved George last season. Comes across as such a grade-A <removed>, but turns out to be a pretty stand up guy at the end. That guy could seriously shoot though. I see most of the competitors on that show though...

    I am finally Closing the "Gun Show Loophole"!

    There's one good thing about the gunshows in FL, and the main reason i recommend it to friends. They have an all-inclusive CCW class twice a day. Having it all done in one place is way more convenient than having to go to the Sheriff's to get your fingerprints, Walgreens for a passport photo...

    Concealed Carry in a backpack

    I have a Maxpedition Fatboy, I think its pretty much the best off-body (bag) carry there is. The hidden gun pocket is just big enough to get a 4" 1911 (Kimber Pro Carry 1) in it. My Glock 19 also fits. I don't have an HK45C, but from what I gather, its similar size to a G19. 5.11 makes a...

    How many times can you fail in gun safety in 5:00, I lost count.

    I was kind of surprised when i found out just how true this is. I have a friend that hit me up about learning to shoot handguns. He served in the Army and is out and going to college now. I assumed he had at least handled one before. But he says his 10 or 12 rounds through the M16 qualifying...

    Good website to buy guns...

    My personal favorite: http://www.cdnninvestments.com/dowournewcat.html Pretty oldschool though, have to download the PDF catalog.

    Why the 870 Express hate?

    Ok, I'm kind of miffed right now. I bought an 870 express about 5 weeks ago, just to have something to go try out the clays games. Only been out with it twice now, and I clean my guns after each time I shoot them. I'm reading this thread last night thinking 'wow, this seems kind of a bit...

    Is consolidation to one caliber wise?

    I'm all about consolidating calibers. Having a stockpile of ammo and being able to take any gun to the range is so much better than having a smaller pile specific to each gun. Or having some for this gun, but out of it for the thing I want to shoot... .22LR goes without saying, but these days...

    Cool gun related shirt

    In TX, we actually had to take Texas History classes in grade school and middle school.

    Three things I like in a gun store.

    I've never had a company refuse an owners manual

    What about public libraries, internet cafes, friends computers, internet-capable phones, govt subsidy programs... Did you know there are well over 5 billion internet-capable devices in circulation? And forecast to be over 15 billion by 2015? That's more than two for every person on the planet...

    Gun Ownership and Social Stigma?

    I make it a point not to hide the fact that I enjoy shooting. Not to the point that I feel the need to broadcast it to everyone. I just like to treat it like any other activity that I enjoy. The last thing I want to do is act like its some secretive, evil thing. If non-gun people at least see...

    I've never had a company refuse an owners manual

    That reasoning always sounds good, but again, it comes down to numbers. Real measurable business metrics, and calculating ROI. What percentage of unit sales come from customers who: 1. Had that 'favorable' customer support experience in the past 2. Purchased this unit directly as a result of #1...

    Next Joint Combat Pistol

    It made financial sense more than anything, but I think there are several pistols that are better than the Beretta on this list (the official competitors in the JCP project): Heckler & Koch HK45C SIG P220 Combat Ruger P345 Smith & Wesson M&P Glock 21SF Beretta Px4 Storm Taurus PT 24/7 OSS...

    I've never had a company refuse an owners manual

    Agreed, I'll always take the electronic copy. Or better yet, a link to the original electronic copy. Because there is one other benefit to mention: revisioning. If the manufacturer makes a change to the document, they need just change it in one place on their website. That's a huge advantage...

    I've never had a company refuse an owners manual

    Eh, I disagree. I think clicking a link to read a PDF should be something well within the technical ability of someone who can participate in an online forum enough to complain about said PDF. I don't think its unreasonable expectation by the manufacturer.
