    What do you think of "Untuckit" shirts for concealed carry?

    When is this going to be needed for you? Whats your normal work wear? Is this just for occasional wear? Can you always carry? I can't carry at work. I do hvac/r in 2 hospitals. I always wear same type of shirt and never tucked in. Why bother, after most my jobs it comes untucked anyways...

    Bisley Hammer for New Model Blackhawk

    I would just get the Montado hammer. No modification needed. Midwayusa and Brownells usually have them in stock. I did it to my Vaqueros for same reason. Good for BH and SBH also.

    DA/SA and "Learning Different Triggers"

    I guess it depends on the disciplines and techniques people like. I love cowboy shooting , so SA is awesome in my book. I use my wife's snub nose sometimes and it's a SA/DA. I don't like the DA. I do some plate shoots and some local 3 gun events and love my 1911's as they have have about the...

    Quality of firearms and the price point?

    depends on the purpose of said gun. If its a carry/ personal defense and used as such- you may never see it again. So a cheap one that you practice with and function check is ok for a car/truck gun. Now the ones I use in CAS,3gun and local uspsa are much more $. Guess it depends on $ you have...

    Multi tools

    I am on my 2nd Leatherman. The Wave. I like having the blade available without having to open the handles. I have worn one everyday for over 10 years. I do HVAC/R work and use it more then I figured I ever would. I prefer the leather case w/snap over the cheap velcro one that comes w/the new ones.

    Home gun lubing cloth?

    cotton gloves that are covered with your choice of lube. I wear latex under gloves just so my hands aren't covered afterwards. Very seldom do I have just 1 gun to clean. First I open safe, clean each gun, put in safe upon cleaning, remove gloves and lock everything up. A pair is usually good...

    Just to start a conversation on ammo used

    I bought a box of 50 steel cased 45acp because I was tired of losing brass at match's. After trying them I will just sacrifice my brass. That was last year. Bought some 45LC about 12 years ago. New gun and just started loading. Cast my own lead. All my 223 is factory. Have all components to...
