    Ever want to sell everything and start fresh

    I went from 20 handguns, 5 rifles, and a shotgun, down to 3 handguns 1 rifle and the same shotgun. It's boring having a bunch of guns that I don't use. My collection of pistols i want will be a glock 17, cz sp01 custom, ruger lcr, smith 500 performance center, and a glock 20. I already have...

    very strange of Ruger...

    I align the top of the red (highest tooth on front blade) with the rear sight, and put the top of the front post right in the middle of where I want the round to hit. Works fine and is just as fast to acquire as the sights on the rest of my guns. If you look at the big dot sight offered for...

    very strange of Ruger...

    I ran into this issue with my lcr 357. Turns out I was aligning the sights flush on top (like a normal pistols) and that lead to me shooting way low. After I painted the front sight red (the area with lines/teeth only) and bought the front sight up (top of the front sight was higher then the...

    Snubby Secrets....what have you discovered?

    I actually grip my lcr .357 mag lower then most (who grip way high almost off the top of the grip in the rear). It's impossible for me to get a smooth trigger press trying to press the trigger up and back. Maybe if I used my middle finger on the trigger the high grip would work. With my grip...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    This is the 4th post that says something is documented but there are no documents to claim such a thing included. You are suggesting certain things could be viewed by a average individual (which is what a jury member is) as questionable, such as the use of a ar15. This is a possibility, just...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    I completely understand where you are coming from. However using a gun in a grey area situation (like shooting a person who didnt have a clear cut knife or gun) will always be looked down upon by the average individual. I know your average person can be convinced of things that don't make any...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    That was my point. It is based on a opinion as to a way to keep potential liability to a minimum. Considering almost all people have no idea how consistent their factory loads are as far as fps, powder/burn marks on clothing at different distances, etc, relying on that to support your case on...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    As far as I know this is a myth. I have heard numerous people talk about such a case but if it was that cut and dry it would exist and be readily avaible. I believe that is something Ayoob said as a reason you probably shouldt use reloads. Ballistics and forensics can determin distance...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    Also the fact you bought a gun and have a ccw could be used against you to suggest you were a vigilante. In the grand scheme of things what do you think could say jurors opinion of you more, a person on trial for using a firearm they ccwed or the fact you used a common semi auto rifle like a...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    Provide court cases that show evidence to suggest that the firearm used played a role in a conviction. In the often cited Harold fish case he shot a unarmed man, and only found out about a screwdriver incident after the fact. The screw driver was omitted from evidence due to Harold not having...

    Has Anti-Gun Propaganda Made the AR15 a less viable defensive rifle?

    These threads are fueled by lack of legal training and use of force training. One of the biggest oversight many people have with the use of force, is if you shot someone and claimed it was self defense, your whole court case is going to be based on if what you did followed the law of your...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    I have had a lot of students start one of my classes saying "they are thinking about getting a different pistol because theirs isn't accurate". By the time they are done with the class they are better shots, and realize their accuracy problem was them and not the gun. Even I have had issues...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    I understand owning any gun for the sake of wanting one. Looking to buy a gun for super accuracy is looking for a gun to fill a need. Without understanding what accuracy is, what guns a person shoots best, and practice, inherent accuracy is worthless. The local gun store to me sells a few 2k...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    The OP comments makes it seem like be has minimal pistol experiance (could be wrong). Spending 2k on a gun capable of firing 1 inch groups at 25 yards and not putting a few thousand rounds through it will not give you the same accuracy as buying a good gun for 600 to 1000$ and spending 600-700$...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    Most handguns will fire sub 3 inch groups at 25 yards. A high end handgun might shoot sub 1 inch from a vise. In theory you would think this would automatically mean if you shoot 5 inch groups at 25 yards with say a xdm, that going to a custom gun that shoots 1 inch will give you 3 inch...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    If you can't shoot a 4 inch group at 25 yards with a standard production pistol, your not going to magically shoot a 1 to 2 inch group with a high end gun. A high end gun will make a bad shooter better, but spending 2,000$ to get 6 to 10 inch groups with a standard pistol at 25 yards down to 4...

    most accurate 9mm under 2000

    What good is a gun that will shoot 2 inch groups at 50 yards if the best the owner can shoot is 4 inch groups at 25 yards? If your capable of shooting sub 3 inch groups consistently with a standard pistol at 25 yards, it might be worth while to get a custom gun made. If you can't shoot...

    Stand Your Ground Reform Introduced in Florida

    Why a warning shot is a bad idea legally speaking: Nothing about a warning shot screams "warning" to everyone else around. A gunshot is a gunshot. Regardless of what you claim to have happened, any witnesses could and likely would say that they saw/heard you shoot at the person. If that...
