    Rifle/Shotgun sling preferences.

    Assuming that the reader has different weapon platforms, do you use a different/dedicated type of sling for your platform? Do you prefer synthetic or natural material? For instance, I use a Specter 3-point sling with HK hooks for something like an SBR/Pistol platform, because of adjustability...

    Aiming for Center Of Mass

    I am LMAO while reading your post! Not because it is funny, but because it makes sense! It is my opinion, that attacks are not " a spur of the moment" thing. The would-be attacker has had success at this, kind of, has trained for it to happen, therefore, a victim would have a very small window...

    I am sorry, but, what is a "gunslinger's hold'?

    Reminder: Vehicles are Not Gun Safes

    :) I misplaced the key to my trailer hitch, and I was in a hurry to prep the vehicle for shipment. I was thinking about a sawzall, then my other half goes to the internet and says: Why not to try the trick I have seen on the 'net?. I said, what? I went looking for a piece of pipe, and without...

    So...I bought this Taurus...

    I am glad that you purchased a Taurus firearm that actually functions well. My experience with Taurus was not good. I purchased a new pistol in .40 S&W a while back, but it was nothing but trouble, and I did not want to go through the "send the gun to us and wait" type of deal, so I just sold it...

    Age and Shooting Part 2

    I do no get groups like the ones on the picture, but I hope to be able to get out and shoot or do some type of outdoor activities when/if I reach your age. Just being able to move around is a win, IMHO. Sure, I would want to run a mile in 6 min or less like in the old days, but I am happy to...

    Gunsmith or Armorer?

    One to remove a Rem700 action, and to replace the barrel with a RemAge type thing. I know this should not be a difficult task, but I was pushing the "Easy button". I will purchase the tools, because I just purchased a new Rem700 action, and I will install the barrel myself when parts are...

    Gunsmith or Armorer?

    That's the reason I was looking for a smith to work on my rifle, I do not want to keep buying tools, but I have to admit, it is much easier to stash the tools than to send my stuff to somebody's shop. I will be buying the tools, barrel, and stock, soon.

    Gunsmith or Armorer?

    I just wanted for them to remove/separate the barrel from the action, but that is not an issue anymore. I had forgotten that I ordered an action, since the order took place last year, and to my surprise, I received a call today to notify me that the action is ready for shipping! Since I did not...

    AR-15 Magpul magazines

    You are right, but the question was in reference to Magpul magazines, and I believe they are made of plastic. Please, forgive me if I am deviating from the topic.

    Good AR?

    Their site reads or warns that their products are not compatible with other brands. That would be the only negative. I like their two-stage trigger.

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    An ergonomic handle to upgrade my Lyman press. The original handle and arthritis are not a good mix.

    A Different Kind Of Near Miss At The Range

    This thread reopened a wound I had almost healed up. I had a Benchmade first production pocket knife, and I lost it while moving from one place to the present location! I was sad, as if my dog had died!

    A Different Kind Of Near Miss At The Range

    "I instantly thought of the headline; Man Dies at Shooting Range From Accidental SELF INFLICTED Stab Wound to the Leg. :oops:" I have had a bad experience with a spring-loaded knife, so, no more of those things with me. Also, car keys (for the old timers without a key fob) or house keys will...

    Herters .22 LR

    I use it to plink with a semiauto rifle and pistol, and, so far, not a bad experience. Of course, I am not using it to drill flies a mile away, so it is good for my purpose. Steel targets from 7 to 50 yards are in trouble! What I have found is that failures with pistols (and not only with 22LR)...

    Then I would not have to worry about judge and jury. Shooting is the last thing in my mind. But you are right.

    Playing Chicken

    Even if they are Law Enforcement, if there were cameras to capture the event, if they acted questionable, somebody is going to get in trouble. I do train with firearms, but, in the event of an intruder, first call 911 and barricade if possible. This things are traumatic events that will forever...
