    Is this forcing cone erosion bad?

    Forcing cone erosion is caused by one thing - use of very light bullets with certain powders that burn at a very high temperaure. That flame is only in the cone for a micro second but it is hot enough to cut steel until the bullet passes and the barrel vents. Don't use lightweight high velocity...

    Check this fine S&W out

    I didn't find out about the .44 Spl. cartridge until the 80s. I had no idea what an amazing cartridge it is. I also found a 696 when they first hit the shelves and will never ever sell it. I may only have 5 rounds but they ARE .44s.

    I just don’t get why they discontinued the Glaser Safety Slugs…

    There are SO many MUCH better rounds for anti-personnel use why use the Glaser?

    Muzzle break removal

    It's a muzzle "brake" - not a "break".

    Having the serial #'s run on your concealed carry weapon

    You have to love the stupidity of having a cop ask if you've been drinking - and if you just say NO they let you go on your way. Or - are you an American citizen and you say yes and go on your way. How does THAT keep us all safer? Personally I couldn't care less what the Supremes say about...

    Olfa snap knives...... Kill me now...... We have had 2 new Orschelns open in this area. No knife cases - not even Victorinox. Nothing. They sell scissors though......

    Hardware stores

    I have spent the last 20 years or so living and working in college towns. The fear these people have of EVERYTHING is incredible. My last 3 bosses would almost faint dead away if I pulled out a pocketknife to open a package "WHY are you carrying THAT?". They wanted me to use scissors like they...

    Federal Marshals are NOT "part of TSA".

    Hardware stores

    Now days I love going into a hardware store (any of them) and asking if they sell pocketknives. The deer in the headlights look answers that question. Then they show me retract utility knives and ask why would you want to carry a knife in your pocket? Well, the last time I opened a bag of pork...

    Keeping a gun at the ready?

    If you saw some of the scum that drive down my street looking for fun you would keep a gun handy also. One fine day I had a carload of them park in my driveway and start to get out of their car. Smiling and laughing. I turned so they could see the large revolver on my belt. They suddenly...

    Silicone rag on handgun grip

    Slippery grips on a handgun is a Very Bad Thing. Once you get silicone on your grips nothing will take it off. It does not evaporate.

    Blue it, leave it alone, or......

    If you want it to be a safe queen - blue it. If you want a durable finish for a gun that will be USED - Parkerize it. Cerakote is not a durable finish.

    TSA confiscates record number of guns in 2021

    The TSA can not "confiscate" a gun - they are not authorized or allowed to touch a gun. If they see a gun they must call a police officer. TSA has NO law enforcement powers. Their badges are only for their political theater clown show. They act like cops and want you to believe that they are...

    Silicone rag on handgun grip

    I will never allow silicone (or WD 40) anywhere near a gun. An oily rag is all you need.

    Aluminum casing

    Aluminum makes terrible ammunition cases. It work hardens the first time a strain is placed on it and will fail if reused. There was a very good reason that brass was chosen for cases.

    Looks like there may soon be more Constitutional carry states

    "Constitutional carry" is a meaningless phrase. ALMOST every State in the U.S. that has passed it so far has Demo run cities that will not comply with it - even when the State law says they must. I live in a State where everyone got so excited when our State Legislators passed "consititutional...

    Gun pants?

    Good holsters were invented for a reason. Carrying a gun in your pants pocket is just silly.
