    GForce .357 Magnum Lever Action - Who Makes It?

    Where did you get a PLAIN STRAIGHT lever? Did ROSSI agree to sell one to you?

    Field holster for 5" 629 Classic

    Consider an across-the-chest holster, or a shoulder holster. Any belt-holster for guns with 5" barrels and longer will see little use unless you never sit down.

    Aftermarket Recoil Pad

    If its a hunting gun you need to take target shooting, a slip-on pad is the answer. Remove the pad for hunting.

    GForce .357 Magnum Lever Action - Who Makes It?

    And you gotta take that big loopy lever. And I bet they don't offer a "normal" lever, and even if they do, I bet they won't sell you "just a lever." Has it occurred to these sellers that some of us are really turned-off by big loopy levers? - especially big loopy lever wrapped in tassels...

    Keltec sub2000

    The sights were so badly configured on the previous version, you coudn't actually use them unless your cheekbone was higher than your eyebrow. I think Kel Tec finally is owning up to the "inherently wrong" aspect of the sights, and rightly just deleted them for the Gen 3.

    This should get your blood boiling...

    There is much stupid in the world. Call it out when you see it.

    If you could only have 5 handguns?

    Only 5??? Five 1911's then!

    Rust prevention under leather lever wrap??

    A little bit of any sort of oil will prevent most rust. But any blued finish that is exposed to constant contact with leather is probably going to degrade. I think you are signing up for the finish to be worn off pretty quickly if the gun is ACTUALLY USED. If you are really worried about the...

    Actual Self Defense Knife Use

    I carry two knives now most days. I use the lightweight Buck 110 for general duty. I used that knife to cut the birthday cake at my grandson's first birthday party. Nobody else had a knife. Just a dumb old man with delusions that he needs to carry a knife. In the other pocket I carry an...

    Actual Self Defense Knife Use

    Suprisingly, DOGS are often afraid of knives. I presume that because dogs evolved as companions to humans, they have developed an instinct to fear a human with any object in their hand. I have deterrred dogs by brandishing a knife. Never had to poke the dog. Maybe the dogs weren't going to...

    I dropped my press..

    Try not to do that again. Next time it will land on your foot, and you'll be on crutches. Its hard to work a press without two good feet. If there is no visible failure of the press, the press is fine.

    Is there really that much difference 115 or 124gr for the 9mm

    Shot placement is what matters in 99.9% circumstances for self-defense. Magic bullets of the season, not so much. CONVERSION BARRELS I have a Glock 22 (.40 cal) that I like to run a 9mm "conversion" barrel. That gun hates most 115-grain factory ammo. Failure to cycle issues of various stripes...

    Optic or no optic on your defense handgun?

    I EDC a Smith and Wesson Bodyguard 380. An optic would be pretty ridiculous on a gun that size. I have a green-dot on a Glock 17. That gun is marginally "too large" for EDC for my needs. Extra stuff hanging off it doesn't help the issue. For a HOUSE GUN, I have a couple full-size M&P 9mm...

    S&W lock plug.. 1st time I seeing this.

    OP, how are you just now hearing about the plug for the Hillary Hole? They started showing up about a month before the first one with a Hole was sold.

    Using small and large rifle primers for all reloading including pistol revolvers too

    Primer cup thickness matters. Large Rifle and Magnum small rifle are 0.025" Most "standard" small rifle are 0.020" Most pistol primers are 0.017" If you handgun will reliably fire primers thicker than 0.017" thickness there is no harm in using the thicker primers. There may be some...

    Trifocals for shooting open sights?

    NO. Get a set of glasses that are dedicated correct for only the front-sight-distance you will be holding the gun. I use 0.5 correction for front sight shooting 1911 pistol. I need 1.5 for most reading tasks.

    BodyGuard issues

    OK, so brand-new gun acting balky. Drown it in Break-Free CLP. Lay it out to drain. Blow it off with compressed air. Work it some manually. Blow it off again with air. Shoot a couple boxes of factory ball ammo. An awful lot of problems with 380's can trace back to people being stubborn, and...
