    Skinner front sight height for Marlin 1894

    I put a Skinner on my Henry 44 lever action. Added the tallest front sight they had, still wasn’t high enough. Went with Ranger Precision, much better. I think the Ranger is built better too. The Skinner has the peep sight just sitting out there waiting to get knocked off. The Ranger has...

    Revolver pocket carry

    When I pocket carry, it’s with my S&W 642 in an Uncle Mike’s Pocket Holster. Very light, very concealable.

    Looks like Paul Harrell is coming to the end of his road...

    Add me to being one of Paul’s YT groupies. Thoroughly enjoyed his videos and like others, I learned things I never knew. As someone dealing with cancer myself, I can only imagine how Paul felt when he received the diagnosis. While mine is not pancreatic, it is a rare form of cancer, but I’m...

    Peep sight for Marlin 336

    I bought a Henry lever action .44 Mag a few years ago. Could not get it sighted in with the buckhorn sights. Rear sight was as low as it could go and was still hitting high at 50 yards. Bought a higher front sight, still no good. Bought the Skinner sights really didn’t like the rear peep...

    How often do you practice with your CCW gun that you carry the most?

    Primarily during the summer, prior to LE qualification. Or, when the mood suits me. Other than that, the rest of the year is mostly .22lr. My wife and I try to go shooting once a week at our local indoor range.

    PCC red dot

    Well, I have a Ruger PC Carbine in 9mm and I have a Bushnell TRS-25 installed. Inexpensive sight, but built very tough. I also have a WASR-10 with the same sight installed. I bought the mount that attaches to the side of the WASR with a rail for the sight. My eyes are getting old and it’s...

    Hunting 357 mag

    A lot of deer have fallen to 158gr bullets. This was the norm for .357 Magnum for a long, long time. Then came the 180gr stuff which many use now. Me, I have stuck by a good 158gr bullet. Find out which one your handgun likes best.

    First time loading 45 ACP. What am I doing wrong?

    1) You are using the wrong seater stem for that bullet. Looks like you are using the stem designed for round or full metal jacket bullets on a bullet with a flat tip or hollow point. That takes care of the bullet deformation. 2) Your die is not set up correctly. Need to set the correct COL...

    Sidearm/Handgun Carry While Hunting With A Long Gun?

    Well, I’m a dedicated handgun hunter and haven’t carried a rifle in about 30 years, but……….. If I were to carry a rifle, I’d carry a 4” GP100 or 2.5” SP101 in .357 Magnum. Both would be carried strong side OWB holster. I might carry a 7.5” SBH in .44 Magnum or a 6.5” BH in .357 Magnum. They...

    New Eotech 512

    I had an older 512 that was great, except for the battery compartment issue. I installed the fix they supplied and the sight ran fine. I gave it to my son when I bought an Aimpoint PRO for my duty rifle. He still has the sight. Now, I love the PRO……it’s been great with no issues. But, while it...
