    The Bachelor of Tactical Science Degree

    I recently retired from the streets after 13 years. What did I take away from it? Especially in TODAY's trying times? That I made the right decision to leave. I wouldn't go back down that road again, either.

    AR bolt release spring and detent channel problem

    Hello, Sorry I haven't been as active but I found myself in a predicament this past weekend. I was wondering if someone could assist me in finding out why a certain spring and detent is giving me issues? The bolt release is stuck, as if the spring is half-way compressed and the release lever is...

    What Gun For Bears?

    What about 30 rounds of 7.62x39 from an AK? :D +1 on the 12ga with slugs

    Bird Shot for SD?

    Just use buckshot or a hollow point slug and call it a day!

    NRA Stickers on Car. Good Idea or Not?

    I don't like putting any type of non-factory decal or sticker on my car. I don't even like putting my county/district information on my license plate (Instead I opt for the "In god" sticker to put over it). The best way to avoid being victimized is to make yourself a small target.

    Remington 870 ?s

    I have an 870 Police Magum that was made back in the 60s as well. Don't sell it, it's probably better quality and better functioning than many current-production 870s.

    Worst experience at the range: Equipment version

    I was shooting some "value" Winchester birdshot bought from Walmart out of a Remington 870 Express. For some reason, the spent shell would not exit the chamber no matter how hard I tried to pump the action. Finally had to have a range master bring a cleaning rod and smash the action to the back...

    Gas Station Protocol

    I always use the perimeter pumps, too. I never let my tank get below half a tank, so I gas up quite often. Keep the car to my back and keep my head on a swivel. If there is a positional latch on the nozzle, use it so that you have your hands free. Your car and the pump will provide marginal...

    if M-16's were legal again...

    The increased price is ridiculous is what it is. All it would take to make a semi-auto AR into a fully-auto is a tool to put notches in the hammer, safety roll pin, drill a couple holes into the receiver, the sear/latch that catches the hammer (Which I guess is what people refer to as the actual...

    concealed carry while playing pool( printing ?)

    I'd say ankle, pocket, bellyband and kangaroo carry would be the most secure. Bars in college areas may have some nice female scenery, but there's too much bull crap that goes on in those places. I'd rather just go to a local sports bar where there's enough control and civility that families...

    Finally bit the bullet and got an Aimpoint PRO!

    Good choice, Aimpoint PROs are good RDSs. As for mounting location, I like mounting mine as far up on the receiver as possible. As long as it's still mounted to the receiver it's solid. Further up allows me to see more peripheral.

    PSA and BCM comparison

    I, personally, haven't had any problems with either brand. I've personally built and owned a PSA AR with CHF barrel. Haven't owned a BCM, but have some parts (Charging handle, grips, slings and mounts). The only issue I had with the PSA is the area where the feed ramp ends and the locking lugs...

    Largest handgun You've ever tried to Conceal Carry?

    I can easily carry a full-size Glock 17/22, CZ 75 and HK USP Tactical in a leather+kydex IWB holster in summer clothes. My definition of summer clothes is cargo shorts and a short-sleeved button down. What I've found that helps conceal is patterned shirts (Plaid, striped, Hawaiian designs, just...

    Open or Concealed

    If I'm in the woods or the range, I'll open carry. If I'm out and about in public, I'll conceal carry. Location is a very important factor in how I choose to carry. Both open and concealed have their pros and cons. Open carry pros (IMHO): Quicker, smoother and allows for a more efficient draw...

    how often to clean a unshot carry gun?

    If my carry gun(s) don't get shot for a while, I'll take em down about once a month. No serious cleaning though, just shove a clean patch through the bore and that's probably it.

    How much ammo is enough?

    Until the structural integrity of your home is at risk of being compromised from the weight. :)

    Do you personalize your guns?

    For aesthetic reasons, I've put wood grips and chrome finishes on pistols. I've also filled in lettering/numbering with color to stand out, mostly magazine round count and safety selector indicators. Other than that, all other modifications are for changes in functionality, comfort or ease of...

    Are you excited for the Glock 43?

    ^ I also was excited for a single stack 9, but it's a little late now. We have many other options. I have been in the market for a single stack 9 for a while now and I think I also have my eyes set on a Ruger LC9S Pro. I hear nothing but good things about it.

    What happens when you press a gun into an attacker's body?

    I was told that if you had to perform a press-contact shot with an autoloader, it's best to press the lower part of the muzzle area of the pistol into the surface area; in essence, it's kind of like tilting the gun downwards a little bit, so that you don't push directly on the crown of the...
