    Some thoughts on the M&P Bodyguard 380

    My 380 BG with a laser is pretty accurate at 30 feet from a rest, but hand held, good luck. I found a smooth complete trigger pull, not trying to guess or feel when it will break works best for me. It is a point and shoot pistol and certainly not a range gun. I added some Talon grip material to...

    Raccoons Who has hunted them ,Need advice .

    Possums I would let go. They eat alot of ticks so even though they are as ugly of some girls I have dated (many years ago) they are beneficial.

    Raccoons Who has hunted them ,Need advice .

    Catch them in a box trap and then submerge the trap in a large trash can full of water. Guaranteed they will not return.

    I have a P10c and I added Talon grips to “smooth” the texture and protect my candy ass hands.

    Which .22lr should I buy next?

    Although the Taurus line is not known for high-quality, I purchased a Taurus TX 22. Although I did have issues with one of the magazines that came with a pistol, Taurus replaced it, and it works fine and then purchased two additional magazines and I have four great magazines that work with the...

    Resetting a scope to zero - How to avoid losing track of how many turns? Rev counters, limiters?

    You had the same problem that I had. I started writing down stuff like that in a little notebook so I can remember what’s the starting point and points for other distances. Then when I introduced a different type of ammo things really got screwed up. So, I still need to work on what the hell I...

    Do You Agree With ANY Gun Control Laws?

    I really think they should raise the age to purchase a gun to perhaps 22 years old. Although I have been shooting a gun since I was 10 years old (now 75), I believe I am more levelheaded than most people. My wife would probably disagree.

    What's your secret for very tight groups.

    With a handgun, other than the usual: grip, trigger control and breathing, I try to remember two things. First, let it surprise you. Second, let it happen, don’t make it happen.

    Safe in garage

    Solving the temperature and humidity problem is one thing. Keeping it “safe” from burglary may be the more difficult issue.

    Upgrading from a Remington 1911R1, next?

    I have the exact same 1911 R1 and have no issues that would make me give it up for something new. It functions great. To make a change just to make a change is up to you. Good luck.

    San Jose decides gun owners should pay for the privilege

    Why not execute anyone who commits a crime with a gun? Gun crime should go waaaaaay down really quick.

    Most embarrassing moments at the range

    In 2009 I bought my first new pistol since one I received from my grandfather in 1963 when I was 16. The “new” pistol was a Ruger SR9c. After cleaning it, I went to a local range. I had a really difficult time loading the magazine and after 3 rounds I realized I loaded the magazine with the...

    If you had a time machine…?

    I would go back to 1991 and tell my dad I loved him one last time before he died.

    Took my nephew shooting for the 1st time.

    What a great post. About 64 years ago I went camping with my neighbor friend Doug and his family across the street (Salem, Ohio) and my family. We went to a real hunting log cabin site in Medix Run, Pennsylvania. My neighbor’s dad brought along a 22 rifle and we shot at pop cans on top of an old...

    Keeping track of your firearms...

    Years ago I used to keep a spreadsheet with all of the pertinent data of all the firearms. The data included most of what was mentioned in previous posts. Then, since I lost all of the firearms in a boating accident I decided to only keep written records of the replacements in a safe place at...
