If you pray, please consider a prayer for the peaceful transition of our friend Tony Spano, who's long posted as @ArchAngelCD here on the forum. Tony has been a good friend to me for many years; I'm not sure, but I may have met him here. I thought many folks here would want to know that Tony's...

I don’t usually gripe about customer service -in fact, my experience with firearms-related customer service - and reloading related customer service in particular - have been very good. But I had a bad experience with Federal just now, and thought I’d share it, because it was so unusual in...

(Already posted this on TFL; my apologies to those of you having to see it a second time. ) Bought a Howell's conversion cylinder for the ROA last week. I'm quite happy shooting the gun with 777, but it's difficult to pour powder on windy days (of which our range has its share), so I figured...

Have you ever run across a product and said, “Man, where have you been all my life? I could have used this for the last 25 years!” Well, that’s my feeling after two weeks of wearing the inexpensive no-clip IWB holster from Remora Concealment and Security Products...

I think it was CVA that made a .44 copy of these recently, but Bob Tingle of Shelbyville, back home in Indiana, used to make .40 in-line single shots that vaguely resembled the profile of Remington 1858s. Anyone have any experience with them? I ran across one yesterday that had a superlight...

Hi all, Well, most of us know Erik Srigley (he posts as "Srigs" on a lot of forums), my southpaw brother who makes super-durable leather gun gear up in the Twin Cities. He was the holster maker I turned to when I got the idea that I needed a pouch to vertically hold speed strips in my pocket...

You know, I L-O-V-E shooting my cast .38 handloads, and I carry them as my primary load in my revolvers. But, I wouldn't carry them in speedloaders or speed strips, because I was afraid of them getting dinged up in my pocket. Heck, even my jacketed rounds sometimes get dinged up in the pocket...

Hi folks, This is actually a request from my dad; he asked me to post online to see if I could find info to help him out. Dad's got a house up on Lake Superior, and he's got moose, bears and wolves running around it. He'd like to get some pictures, and he thought an infrared "deer camp"...

Hi all, A month and a half ago, Eagle announced that their long-awaited 30-round mag for the Remington 597 was ready for prime-time. (They'd had it up on the website for some time, but said that they wanted to get everything right before they shipped it out.) I ordered two. They arrived...

Be sure to set your clocks back for an extra hour of partying! :D Myself, I'm having an Avery Brewery "New World Porter" in his honor. Happy birthday, amigo, and many happy returns of the day! :)

Drop me an email if you want to get on the NM Shooters Listserv! We went down in the first place because Sam was customizing a Star BM for Gil. Here they are when Sam first got the gun to Gil (Sam's got the beard): Gil liked it a lot! Here's the crew (L-R: Gil, Sam, Matt...

He may be a politician, but this was pretty cool: http://www.freenewmexican.com/news/42625.html I actually spoke to him about doing this at dinner (my wife's a bigwig) about a year ago - I'm sort of amazed that he followed through! :) Governor gets license to pack By DAVID MILES |...

Hi all, I'm going to be in San Diego from the 7th to the 11th of December (a warm-up to our Christmas in South Beach on the other coast :) ), and I just got off the phone with a friend who's just moved out to San Diego. He proposed swinging by my hotel at 0800 on Saturday the 10th and taking...

A friend and I had a discussion yesterday about the relative merits of small .380s (PPKs, etc.) and small .38s (J-frames, D-frames). Clearly, each type of gun has its pluses (the small .380s reload faster, carry a bit more ammo, have single-action follow-up shots; the small .38s hit harder, draw...

And I finally got around to meeting him last night. :) a couple of years ago I met Lee Aldridge (of Reality Based Fighting Concepts, moderater at the selfdefenseforums.com) online. We knew we both lived in the Albuquerque area, but it was only when a mutual friend visited from out of state...

Hey Nuevomexicanos, You should know that Roswell Democrat Senator Timothy Z. Jennings has introduced SB 648 which proposes adding language to the petty misdemeanor Negligent Use of a Deadly Weapon statute (NMSA 1978, § 30-7-4) to include a new section that reads: D. Any deadly weapon used...
