    I have seen the Light! A CZ convert confesses!

    Another Arizonan CZ fan here, with some observations: - With regard to caliber, I prefer my CZ's to fire 9mmP - not necessarily because .40S&W or .45ACP are inherently less-reliable in the CZ design, but because of the magazine capacity(16X9mm vs. 10X.45ACP/.40S&W); while the larger calibers...

    How many rounds to be good

    Round count is only part of the equation - unless you can immediately recognize your mistakes and get immediate feedback and constructive criticism to remediate and improve the weak points in your technique, you may very well wind up burning more ammo and $$ than you should and getting little to...

    Spikes .22 Upper for AR15 VS Smith&Wesson M&P15-22

    If something breaks in your Bushmaster lower, you will be unable to shoot either of your two uppers until the problem is fixed; the M&P 15-22 will at least allow you to keep practicing with .22LR until you fix your .223. Also, you and a friend cannot shoot both your .223 Bushmaster and a...

    Thoughts on carrying in rear pocket?

    ^ When the pickpocket says, "I'm taking your wallet," I'd rather not have him lift my $400+ pistol out of my rear pocket. Wallet in back, pistol in front where I can keep my hand on it if I need to.

    Help teaching new shooter?

    Here's a tip I learned from Tactical Response's DVD, Shooting Missology: - If you have a "blue gun" that has sights, tell your student to aim the gun directly at your dominant eye. If she is aiming correctly, you should be able to see a "reverse sight picture" from your end of the dummy gun...

    Open Carry Segment on "The Daily Show"

    Actually, I thought it was GOOD publicity - almost like "verbal judo" on a macro-level: - By satirically equating gun-rights with gay-rights, and open-carry with "coming out of the closet," we get to appropriate some of the sympathy and tolerance points that the media usually uses these...

    Anyone carry OWB in the summer?

    Try wearing a sleeveless "A-line" or "wife-beater" undershirt to keep the holster off of your bare skin. That is exactly what I do when I carry with my all-Kydex Blade-Tech IWB holster in sunny Southern AZ. A T-shirt or polo shirt over the gun to conceal, and no difference in comfort(a...

    Asp key defender?

    Pics of my set-up... 1. These are my keys on the KD as I normally carry them. Yes, that is over a decade's worth of daily carry-wear on the KD. :neener: 2. These are the separate individual key-ring sets: A. Car key and one gun-cabinet key on first key-ring, attached to KD w/QD...

    Asp key defender?

    Clarification: my ASP-KD did not come with a quick-detach key-ring as OEM equipment in the package - I went to an Ace Hardware store that has a large selection of metal key-rings, and I got a 2-piece unit for about $1.50 that is made of nickel-plated brass with a spring-loaded plunger that plugs...

    Asp key defender?

    I've been carrying my keys on an ASP Key Defender for over 10 years. Originally, I got it to provide redundant backup for a pocket OC canister and an ASP baton - over the years, I have found that it offers me a synergistic combination of features and options that no other pocket stick or OC...

    Holster for Redhawk

    I found that a British Army-surplus leather holster originally made for the .455 Webley MkVI revolvers fits my 5.5" Redhawk perfectly...what you pay for it depends on where you find yours, I found mine for about $10 in the used-holster bin at a local gun store. If you can't find a pre-owned...

    Putting the CZ kadet kit on different pistols.

    This may or may not be an issue with your personal CZ's, but when the Kadet upper is first installed on a frame, there are two steel lugs that mate up with the reversed slide rails in the frame which have to be file-fitted to fit snugly in those rails. If the upper is removed from its "mated"...

    Double Action Accuracy Help

    http://www.craigcentral.com/fearnot.htm Now, before you get out to the range to try Ernest Langdon's DA-shooting tips, here's some homework you should be doing for 10-15 minutes EVERY night: - Grip the dickens out of the gun. The harder you hold it, the less likely the muzzle is to...

    70's and 80's vintage tactics.

    Coupla thoughts: Sounds like your Mick might have been the beneficiary of some old-school point-shooting training in the Commandos or the SOE, so take a look at something from W.A. Fairbairn, the man who trained those groups: http://1896mauser.com/fairbairn/shooting_to_live.pdf Take a...

    Heat, sweat, primers and ccw

    Here's what I tell my CCW students here in sunny S. AZ: Modern centerfire ammunition can be stored almost indefinitely, as long as it is kept in a cool, dry place. High heat(as in 120+degrees in a parked car in the summer) degrades smokeless powder over time; humidity(as in body sweat and...

    Gavin DeBecker on Kindle

    DeBecker's info is very useful for personal protection and situational awareness...his personal beliefs and politics are that guns should only be allowed for the political/economic/celebrity elite and the bodyguards who protect them. I suggest you buy his books second-hand from a local used...
