Personal experience: 3.5" N frame is very comfortable to sit, stand, squat, drive in the appendix position. A 4" L frame is not so comfortable sitting, driving, squatting in appendix position. It depends on your frame - size, waist (short or long), how much belly in the way, etc... All...

kernel, Corsair, of course. Cheers, Frank

Ah, sorry MC. The commander has a full size grip, about 3/4" (19mm) shorter slide and barrel.

It is a Commander size pistol, only thicker

My Savage 10 came with a ghost ring rear sight from the factory - it is the 308 Win scout. I would call up Savage, ask for the custom shop, and ask them to put one on.

target wadcutters according to the gelatin folks at firearmstactical.com, the 148 grain target wadcutter has adequate penetration and will crush/cut a full diameter hole. Can't get any milder, as scubie02 noted. It is all about placement, then penetration, then wound diameter - in...

high speed video Take a look at the video of a S&W 500 at http://www.john-ross.net/guns_and_shootong.htm - shows what recoil can do. A heavy loaded .44 in a 329 recoils at a higher velocity than that 500. Old Fuff has it right, I'll bet.

Beer & Pizza Money UC is a dystopia, a novel warning against a possible future (a bad future, in the author’s opinion). The early parts of UC are laying the ground work for both the situation, and the protagonist. We see, in the case of Henry Bowman: 0) An outline of the history of the...

trigger cocking I have a Centennial. I find that it is easy to feel the hammer come back to full cock. This lets you adjust your aim and then have a very short trigger press to fire. Not saying that this is as good as a true SA, but it can help you hit at long range. I generally use the...

Bob79, there's one way to find out: get a deep bucket, fill with water, and shoot straight down. You'll get wet. Probably ought to use a 2 to 3 foot deep bucket (60 to 90 cm). Water testing usually gives somewhat better expansion than testing on critters. I've seen someone on the...

buzz_knox "The guns rights battle is a war, ladies and gentlemen, and the doctrine of the one decisive battle is as outmoded here as it was in World War II" Agree with you here, but (always there's a but), but it could work quite well in the case of a Demo President with a Repub Congress...

The Debate last night Here is the transcript of the question; my comments are inserted between the square brackets [...]. SCHIEFFER: Mr. President, new question, two minutes. You said that if Congress would vote to extend the ban on assault weapons, that you'd sign the legislation, but...

wildalaska wildcat WildAlaska & Biff, At one time I was contemplating a .303 based wildcat; it looked as if I could blow out the case straight and make a .444 marlin clone. While not a 45-70, it would have a lot of performance for the furries. Make a switch barrel for that and you're good to...

I've got "Fireworks" and the article is in there. Baby was built on a Z602 Czech action, chambered for the .460G&A (the .404 Jeffery opened up to .458). Has a deepened magazine well to hold 6 rounds. A 21 inch barrel, weighs 11.5 pounds loaded. Came across "Fireworks" in a used book...

look at one shooting - Hinckley shooting Reagan in 1981. Hink gets off 6 shots of 22lr. One hits Macarthy in the belly (Secret service guy, stepped in front of Reagan); another hits DC cop Delahanty in neck. One hits Brady in forehead; 2 miss; last one hits Reagan under arm, goes thru lung...
