I use 135 grain, Federal Hydra-Shok. But, I'm sure any labeled "personal defense" from a name brand manufacturer would be fine.

Well, that comes from the guys who actually use the so-called best sidearms. Seems the Colt 1911 is the winner.

What...Where? I've only seen .40's introduced in gunstores.

Man, even prices are big in Texas, $575.00 for a 9mm Tac XD. I paid $450.00 NIB for mine. Can we assume you have shot the three mentioned firearms and you are simply asking our opinion? I think we'd all admit, the XD/Glock/CZ are accurate from the steady rest. The real question is how...

I've used Harris bi-pods on all my varmint rifles before, but I'm considering another choice to save weight (and cash), the shooting stick. I've never used one and I think I'd like one that can fold up easily. I'm guessing the cross sticks would be best for a steady hold on target. Any...

:eek: What happened? Did the company cover the product? I've had no problems with the set on my Sig 229.

That's exactly what you'll do. I've seen guys at the range shoot the rentals and it is too extreme for me. I hope you fired one before you ordered yours. It is a hand cannon. Good luck sighting it in...ouch! :eek:

Since the M36 is an up close and personal range revolver, I load mine with Federal PERSONAL DEFENSE 'low recoil' 110 grain JHP Hydra-Shok ammo. It's designed for that small, short barrel model handgun.

I've got the same rifle...a keeper! I sure wish I lived in your area, I'd shoot it more often. Man, outside in the flat desert, nothing around for miles. That has to be fun (and safe). What is that funky looking tree next to you?

You're comparing a duty size pistol with a sub-compact. How can that be fair? It's not like you are comparing the P99 with the service XD, or the Walther PPS with the compact XD. You like your XD45 so why not compliment it with the smaller subcompact XD? I don't know what makes a gun sexy...

Just wear what you normally wear. It's not like you need a fancy uniform dress. In the heat, I wear shorts, a ball cap, t-shirt, concealment cover vest and rugged trail shoes. My mag retention method is stuffing the mag in my waistband (works great for me), so I don't need those expensive...

Being new to IDPA myself, this is how I see it regarding which gun to use. Like many, I started with my gunsmith tricked-out 5" barrel XD, 3.5# light trigger, sights, etc. Then I discovered rather quickly with that gun, I was placed in the ESP division. I faired well, but there was no way I...

I'd have to say my 9mm S&W 952-2.

That's fake...it looks like a walrus in a bag. :neener:

Personally...black rear and fiber optic front. On sunny days that FO front sight is a gem. Besides, it's a must have for 'old eyes'.

Probably not many Taurus CCW/Plinker owners here, but if it fits and suits YOUR needs, go for it. After all, handguns are a personal choice. You may not like the Sig, XD or Glock others would carry for various reasons. I would suggest you checkout the Taurus warranty/CS policies before the...

He's correct, Flitz or Simichrome metal polish. I've also used MOTHERS Mag and Aluminum polish.

Maybe the simple answer to this dilema is what does the individual in the wheelchair expect from the sport? Does he want all kinds of freeby breaks? Or, is he there to enjoy the sport of competition shooting for himself. No need to compete with the other shooters, just see for himself how he...

goon, I feel bad about your Sig CS experience and I'm sure it happened as you described. SigSauer handguns are everywhere with the vast majority never needing a CS return visit. I own several different brand handguns and have had them back to the makers of SigSauer, Ruger and S&W. All were...

I've never had problems with MecGar mags. IMO, I think the stainless reject and reload quicker which is why I switched all my 229 mags to stainless for competition shooting means only. Maybe the anti-friction is something new for wear resistance and could help with speed reloading if needed.
