    Want to own a Sig 1911 nightmare.

    I live in California, have many Sig products. I want a Sig Nightmare 1911 with the bobbed grip. It looks as though that is the only difference from the ones I own and that are Ca compliant. Is there a LEGAL way to purchase this weapon in another state and have it in my possession in...

They have a bit of a bulge midway in the brass cartridge, stopping them from dropping all the...

    Well I shot my second IDPA classifier today! I dropped about 20 seconds from my previous try, but still in the MM category. I have made some great improvements, but seem to have a nagging brain fart when the timer beeps! :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead: Much improved in stages...

    building a 9mm rifle

    Do rifles with the same caliber as a pistol use the same load data as say a Sig P226 in 9mm? I'm thinking of building an AR lower with 9mm as the caliber. be safe.

    Orlob Occluder

    Has anyone used one of these rear sights on a pistol for target shooting? They move the rear sight forward in a tunnel so only your dominant eye sees it and the front sight for faster target acquisition. (when shooting with both eyes open.) Anyone used this sight? anyone? be safe.

    In my training. . . .

    The first thing I can remember ever hearing, learning or thinking about guns is CONSIDER THEM ALWAYS LOADED. EVEN IF YOU JUST SET IT DOWN, CHECK IT TO SEE ITS CLEAR AND UNLOADED EVERY TIME YOU PICK IT UP. With that being said, I wonder what the real story and caliber of the weapon that Mr. Jose...

    Help ID'ing a rear sight.

    I saw a shooter at an IDPA match with a Glock 34. It had a rear sight that looked to be very long. It was mounted at the back in the normal dovetail groove, but was long enough to almost reach the ejection port. It kinda looked like the sight was set forward on the gun, reducing the sight...
