    FBI Ditches .40 for 9mm

    Consistency with regard to penetration and expansion. As it was explained to me, the round seems to have a traditional hollow point that is filled with polymer of some sort - kind of like the hornandy ammo as mentioned earlier in this thread - but there are some features that also differentiate...

    FBI Ditches .40 for 9mm

    I work with some Bureau guys fairly frequently and am fortunate enough to call a few of them friends. While they do have some really good guys they also have some that leave a lot to be desired. And while the legacy of accountants and lawyers is in the past, I still think there are quite a...

    drop-leg carrier question

    Frequent reader, rare poster here -- there's a lot of wisdom in what's written above. I use a drop holster numerous times a month in relation to my job. We always joke that you can tell the amateurs by how low they have their thigh rig. They are great tools, but are terrible the lower they...

    Walther PPK .380 questions

    I owned a S&W version of the PPK/S for a few years and finally sold it because I came to the realization that I liked the idea of owning and shooting the gun more than I actually liked owning and shooting the gun. Initially wanted a PPK, but after handling a number of them I realized I needed a...

    Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not claiming that my LEO or military credentials provide me a level of expertise not obtainable by mere civilians. Double Naught Spy - I concur with you about some LEOs......and there are a few folks in my agency that I absolutely refuse to be next to at...

    Hollow Point Controversy

    I know my post count is fairly low (I'm primarily a lurker), but this thread has my blood boiling. The ignorance displayed here is immeasurable. As a current LEO and former member of the military I would urge all you textbook ballistics experts to go get some training. You can read opinions...

    Poll: SCAR or ACR?

    I haven't seen or handled either one so I'm not commenting, but man 'o man it seems like there's nothing but hate for the Bushmaster. Apparently their products suck.

    Arming the Neighborhood: What's YOUR plan?

    Fortunately, for me, I live across the river from D.C. so when the mushroom cloud goes up I'll have been vaporized along with my collection of arms and my entire neighborhood for that matter. It'll all be for the best anyways, the neighborhood leans the direction that most of the politicians...

    Why is the PPK unpopular?

    I, too, was lured into purchasing a ppk/s some years ago as I loved the lines and thought it would make a great gun to carry concealed. I found it too big for pocket carry - a ppk might have fared better, but it was too small for my hands - and as much as I loved to hold and look at it I found...

    Knowledge or lessons learned

    I agree that this has been a concern whenever I'm carrying or loading in the house. Haven't had a slamfire yet, but am always prepared for one by pointing it in a safe direction.

    Jewelry that packs a punch

    I've seen her at the Nation's Gun Show at the Dulles Expo in Chantilly, VA a few times. Great idea and the products looked just like the pictures. I'm not sure how well she does at the shows, but I wish her the best.
