The Taurus 450 has a .010 thicker outer wall than a Ruger New Vaquero, and the bolt latch is between the chambers (5 shot) and it is MUCH thicker between the chambers. Also the short barrel will reduce pressure on slower powders. So anything the NEW vaquero can handle the stainless Taurus 450...

I love Rugers, but I hope they NEVER become safe queens like the Colts. Rugers are for gun users. Ace

I OC because I have no interest in "little" guns and wearing jeans and shirt I would have little chance to CC. 95% of my life is rural but I think a snatcher would be the one suprised to find how aggressively I defend my weapon. The only rule is, there aint no rules. Ace

When choosing to carry any weapon you must: Know how to safely use and carry it. Become proficiant with it, be able to hit where you aim. Be resolved to use it if prudent. Resolve that NOBODY except a LEO can be allowed to take away your weapon. Decide to be...

The BG has a plan. He has already decided what he is willing to do. He gets to make the first move. If you feel your SHTF radar go off, get the gun out and ready in a safe direction. Leave if possible. MAYBE you can suprise the BG. Brandishing is waving the gun around being threatening...

Take one helium balloon on 6 ft. of string tied to a radio controlled toy car....

Nice thing about revolvers is they don't throw your brass away. Nice for several reasons. If a BG is hearding people into the back room at gunpoint, I feel justified in shooting him down. The opportunity is fleeting to head this off without loosing hostages, and that back room is where...

Can anyone think of a DVD that deals with pistol retention from a suprise attack? I do think I am smart enough to access the practicality of any suggestions and ask questions about parts I don't understand or don't find realistic. Then, practice with training partners will prove or disprove...

"You don't want to know my opinion ..." Yes, I do. That is why I brought it up. The problem with my idea is it doesn't play very well in court. I want to hear all ideas. Ace

OK, you could spin, to move the weapon farther from the BG, while striking with one hand. IMO you had better devote one hand to your gun. If it is your off hand, leave the gun in place if it is not in battery. If you carry in battery, you better get it pointed at the BG as soon as possible...

It seems to me that you all get offended and misunderstand me. I'm saying I have NEVER seen a demonstration in martial arts to show how to retain his gun. The person with the gun is supposed to lose, has no way to even show that he could win. This is no way to learn gun retention. Can...

I can handle criticism. I'll even start. What I don't like about my tactic is that it is likely to permanently maim. And the perp will claim,"Gee, I was just kidding around and he poked my eye out." You could hit the throat, instead. Harder to execute. Jammed fingers I'm not too...

I was interested in your opinon of my existing techniques and was interesting in learning others. I have studied, though not invested years of training, many martial arts. My opinion is that Krav Mega, for the IDF is the most no frills or dance, defence against weapons or long long odds...

Pax, I would try to smother and disarm with BOTH hands and headbutt him as hard as I could at the same time. I worry about someone at conversation distance..3 feet say...making a play for my pistol. I think I would make a finger forward stab at his eyes with my off hand. It could cause...

Most training is how to take away your gun. Anyone tell how to thwart a suprise grab for your gun.? Ace

You need a really soft lead bullet then. My .45 bullets also expanded to almost .50 cal. Ace

Are you saying this was instinctive, not training?

It bothers me when I hear," I refuse to do anything different than before 9 11. I won't let it change my way of life". Well we had better change some things so it doesn't happen again. We have these " It could never happen here/can't do anything about it anyway" people on school boards and...

I have noticed that paintball produces many bad gunhandling habits. triggerjerking, unsafe pointing, ect. Airsoft would be similar. Ace

Here in Kansas it is ILLEGAL to carry into a church, permit or open. Now I feel that this sacred separation of church and state that the Damn Dems value more than church would dictate that the church decide what they allow within their walls. They can vote on it and put up a sign like...
