The scrap metal probably won't be hard enough for rifle. It might not even be hard enough for pistol, so be careful and ask lots of questions when buying the scrap steel.

Training. I attended the two-day Fighting Pistol class and two-day Fighting Rifle class with Tactical Response. Great classes and I improved my skills tremendously. As much as I enjoy buying new guns and accessories, I really prefer knowing how to use them to the best of my ability. My...

S&W M&P9 Pro Series. Santa delivered early, but I still haven't shot it. I think I'll suck-up and go brave the weather today.

Generally speaking, if the steel is rated for rifle, it will be fine to shoot with handguns. Make sure that you shoot your rifle from a long, safe distance. I think 100 yards is good, but you can shoot closer if you angle the steel downward so that all the impacts are deflected into the ground.

Art, Some of us didn't lock into high oil prices, we waited for the coming drop. :D Maybe some of the ammo companies and suppliers are equally smart and lucky.

Cproducts.com. Good mags, good prices. In stock last week.

Teaching shooting is hard to do via Internet. Dubious, where do you live? Maybe a THRer close to you can work with you one on one.

The belt... I have a clear, strong memory of the sound of a leather belt being whipped from belt loops. It does not bring good feelings. :eek:

That is exactly it. Next time at the range, shoot slowly and concentrate on releasing the trigger just enough to reset it. Don't allow the trigger to go fully forward. Do that 50 times, every time you go to the range. Couple that with a proper draw, sight alignment, and dot drills and...

There is a small dust-up between Oleg Volk and Derek Zeneah about ownership of THR. If you want more info, visit the provided link, or go to www.armedpolitesociety.com , a sister forum of THR

If that is all you load in one session, then you won't get much benefit from a progressive. A progressive press is best for large batches. When I go to load ammo, I load about 400 pistol rounds in one session. That session typically lasts about 1.5 hours including set-up and clean-up. Any...

Yep. The ad says to look for it at your dealer in a few months. On a related note, in which category is the XD-M for IDPA and USPSA?

I answered "requires too much equipment." Frankly, I don't care to shoot shotguns much. I enjoy a round of trap or skeet every now and then, but 3-gun is too much for me. What I'd really like to see is more 2-gun matches. 1 rifle/carbine and a sidearm. Run it like IDPA or USPSA and I'm in.

FWIW, I use Titegroup with Precision bullets. No leading, but I do get some smoke. I use 170g .40SW, and 200g .45 bullets.

Do you really need an answer to this?

A .22? What the heck? That guy needs an upgrade.

There are no FAA or TSA regulations concerning guns and private aircraft. As long as your airport has no regs against it, you're fine. Most general aviation airports are open to the public, and are not prohibited areas. Is that DW Hooks airport?

smee, If you want to build, instead of buy, a 9mm 1911, look to the IPSC/USPSA race gun manufacturers. Caspian, STI, SVI, etc. I don't know them all. I'd say that the USPSA community has the lock on 9mm 1911 info. since the 9mm variants are used in competition there.

I'm torn between a High Power-legal 20 inch AR, or a long-range/precision bolt rifle.

600 yards in NRA High Power. My first match was just a few weeks ago. Funny thing... I shot better at 600 than I did at 200 and 300. Before that match, 300 yards was my farthest shot.
