    mutt deterrent

    I am looking for advice regarding "nightstick" style pieces of wood. I am trying to lose weight and part that entails cycling. When my wife and I walk in our neighborhood I carry a shovel handle for a mutt deterrent. I was thinking of making a shorter version to wear in a "holster" strapped...

    belts

    I carry IWB at about 3:30, I am 6'1 and weigh about 320. I love my holster but I am extremely displeased with my belt. I would like your input as to what to look for in a "good" belt. The main issue I have is that the belt (not a gun belt) likes to roll or slide when I get up. I do not want...

    glock diagnosis

    Could someone help me confirm my diagnosis? Gen 2 Glock G22 40cal After 2 or 3 shot I am getting a failure to eject. I had someone else shoot it to make sure it is not me and got the same results. I am leaning more toward a bad extractor rather than a spring issue but I have thought...

    State of Ohio question.

    My 21 year old son got pulled over for not stopping completely. He advised the trooper and gave his permit with his license. He was then advised by the trooper that carrying with one in the chamber is a felony. He was given a ticket and let go. Do they just make it up as they go or have we...

    Glock Bite

    I finally got my Gen 2 G22 from prison, sorry layaway. As I was fiddling around with it I noticed that I will need to be careful or I will get bit. Any tricks to remembering other than the old "ouch that hurt" method? Now the holster hunt begins.

    I would like to what you guys think of grip safeties like the ones on the XD series. I know trigger control is the key to safety but does the grip safety make a significant improvement?

    40 cal question

    Over the past several months I have seen a trend that I am curious about. On Armslist and a couple other lists I have looked at I see a larger than usual concentration of 40 cal handguns for sale. To be fair I only look at lists for in-state sale and so this may be regional, but is there a...

    I have come across one of these for trade. What is your opinion? Any idea how to tell how old it is without calling the factory? (I know they were made from 1980(+/-) until today.) Any warnings or problems to look for?

    Flashlights (not as a weapon)

    This may be the wrong forum and if it is please feel free to move it. As I was out walking the dog the other night I came to the sudden realization that if I needed to get to my pistol I would have to 1. release the dog, 2. switch the flashlight to my off hand, 3. reach for my gun. It...
