    Mossberg 590A1 Accessories

    I have a Mossberg 590A1 and I'm looking into adding on to it. I'm primarily looking into getting a side saddle and a sling. I also like the idea of getting a flashlight, too, but I'm not totally sold on the idea of having a "shoot here" beacon on my shotgun. Then again, if I can't see my target...

    642 in a pocket?

    I'm thinking of getting a 642 for pocket carry. I think my G19 is a little too large for carrying on my hip sometimes. This way, I'd have options on how I want to carry. Does it really disappear in a front pocket? Anyone have any pictures of someone carrying in a pocket holster?

    Mindset and Tactics

    I've been thinking about doing this for a while, but originally hesitated as this isn't entirely firearms-related. This is less about shooting and technique, and more about your mindset and tactics. I think there are little things that one can do to improve their chances if one finds...

    New shooter needs help

    Alright, to make a long story short, I have a new Glock 19, I haven't shot it yet, and it's my first handgun. I intend on becoming very proficient with this over time. However, I don't have the time right now to take those two-or-more training classes, so all I can really do right now is go the...

    Positive Gun-Related Police Stories

    I've noticed that there's often a lot of negative stuff on here about LEOs and run-ins with the police. Sometimes it's the stories about what happened to a member, or sometimes it's about what happened to a loved one or a friend. Unfortunately, it's a bit easier to complain than praise, and...

    Need help to conceal my CCW

    Well, I have my CCW permit, and a Glock 19. Only problem is, I can't seem to figure out how to conceal it properly. I've tried two different ways of carry: 2 o'clock on the hip and 4 o'clock on the hip. The former is easier to conceal, but less comfortable. The latter is harder to conceal...

    Got my first handgun! :)

    So, today I picked up my Glock 19. I absolutely love this thing. I fired one once before, and instantly fell in love with this. I fired one shot, and turned to the other with a big grin on my face, and asked him two questions: (1) Where do I get one?; and (2) how much is it? I bought a cheap...

    Help: 10/22 Tech Sights Issue

    I bought the Tech Sights TSR100 for my 10/22, but I can't get the front sight off of my 10/22. I have a punch and a rubber mallet, but the sight will not budge. I've really wailed on it a couple of times, but I'm getting scared I'm going to scratch the barrel. Any thoughts? Anyone else had...

    Mossberg or Remington?

    Why is there no 9mm PPK/S?

    I've been thinking about this a lot. Why hasn't Walther chambered the PPK/S in 9mm? I mean, think about it: - The .380 ACP is regarded as the minimum self-defense round - Many consider the 9mm to be the minimum - The jump from a 9x17mm round to a 9x19mm round isn't much - There's enough...

    I give up on trying to find the right handgun

    So, I've been trying to decide on a carry gun for some time now. Everyone has either told me to get a 642 or a P239, neither of which I want. I shot the P239 today, and I just didn't like it. It's too heavy for me, and the grip is too short for my hand. The only way I'd buy a 642 is with the...

    CCW Revolver: S&W 642 v. S&W 60 v. Ruger SP101

    I'm trying to narrow down my choice of a CCW revolver to one of the three (642, 60, SP101). I know the 60 and SP101 are heavier than the 642; are they still good for carry? Or are they too heavy? Any advice on how to choose between these three is appreciated.

    PPK/S Problems?

    I'm looking at getting a Walther PPK/S for a concealed carry handgun. I've been hearing some mixed reports on them. Some people say they've never had a problem, and others say they can't find any ammo the PPK/S will feed properly. What's the story? Also, is a .380 a bad defensive round...

    Advice on choosing a carry gun

    I've thought about this quite a bit, so I'll keep this short. I got my LTC-A ALP on Tuesday, and I got a 10/22 to start shooting. I've started thinking about what I want for a carry piece, and ended up with a decent list of handguns I was interested in: Walther: - P99 - PPK/S Sig - P226...

    I'm so excited!

    So, I turn 21 today. :) First stop was the police department to hand in my LTC Class A application (Class A for concealead carry), and now I'm across the road at the library using a computer since Verizon's DSL service is terrible the past couple of weeks. :) Now I'm off to the RMV (DMV for...

    I'm so angry I can't think.

    So, a friend of mine is affiliated with ProtestEasyGuns, and is organizing a protest in her area. She will be taking part in a "lie in" which is supposed to draw support for stronger gun laws to prevent future shootings. She was close friends with one of the victims from VT, so it's easy to...

This morning, I recieved an email letting me know that I had another response. This is...

    Dating and CCW

    I have about two months until my 21st birthday. :) However, I had a rather scary thought: what if I have a date, or a lady friend, or any other synonym for a female companion. How does one let them know that you carry? It's unfortunate that in today's society, a gun is often viewed as a...
