    Hornady Critical Defense .357 brass

    I wouldn't typically necro a thread... ...but this seems pertinent. I recently discovered that the Hornady Critical Defense cases were short. I'm phasing out the Gold Dots and looking for a new defensive carry load. Typically I just ditch the nickel plated cases, but I noticed it was short...

    Wife

    CZ's in our neck of the woods are pretty rare. So no. Although I recall that I did have her hold a CZ83 that we ran across. It was somewhat favorable to her. She just didn't like anything larger caliber than .22, so it was a no-go. As for Glock, she has about the same opinion as I do of the...

    Wife

    I know this is old, but I thought I'd post a follow up. I forgot all about this thread. No revolvers! While that is pretty much all I like any more, she doesn't. I still tried...she would hold them a half a second and set it back down. We checked out many of the slide actions. The final four...

    rellascout, You have a point. It would have to be the right .22 kit. My Kimber kit is pretty good, I get about 1-3 rds FTF out of 600. And slide lock back doesn't work. After that it needs cleaning. So it's good for practice, but that's it. If I went the M1911 route I would build it as a...

    Wife

    Yeah, only she won't shop them unless I go with her. Which is why still after two years she doesn't have her "own gun". Lately I've been hearing from her more about how she doesn't have one. If it's not clear from what I've said above that she is very involved in this process, I don't know...

    Marshall, I'll check it out. That might fit the bill. Stuck to .22 only would be a bit of a bummer, but hey, a person has to know their limitations. Still having a gun is better than nothing. And that gun would probably last a couple lifetimes. --- Seedtick, I'll check out the PMR...

    Wife

    I'm shopping around a bit. She has used one of my single stack 1911's off and on for a few years. But she wants her "own gun". We stopped by one of the local gun shops on the way home from the chiropractors the other day. I knew they had a SIG Mosquito and Walther P22 in stock. Mosquito...

    What do you feed...

    I doubt they are endangered. There is a point in killing them when they're eating your chicken's eggs. On my granddad's farm I suppose we could have collected them up and drove them a few miles away to dump them "into the wild"...but we didn't. If you want to debate that perhaps you should...

    Knife at School!

    And this is exactly why I will NOT put my kids into a cesspool of bad company. Tell me again why anyone thinks a public school (where they would circumvent my children from MY idealogy) is a good idea? I reject this concept of "society" we have, and will not let my kids turn into bleating...

    Going Magnum - .44 or .357??

    Use? (id est; target shooting, hunting, home defense, carry piece, other, combination of any of the above...)

    What do you feed...

    I have the same gun. I find I use it mostly for point shooting, and teaching the mechanics firearms control to people new to firearms. And I found I rarely use the magnum cylinder. Shoot what you bought, buy more, keep shooting. Try to put several thousand rounds through it this year. It...

    Why a revolver.

    Why a revolver.

    David slew Goliath with one stone and had four to spare in case his brothers showed up. The only incident I was involved in where I had to draw a gun I didn't even have to fire a shot. For other defensive scenarios, hit what you're aiming at, and you won't need that many shots. But for those...

    Conceal Carry for my future revolver

    My two main holsters I use for my 3" SP101 are a Don Hume IWB, 15M No. 52-3 And I also have a Concealco. Strangely enough I like the Concealco better, however I find myself using the Don Hume more. I left-hand appendix carry most of the time. The Hume has a clip right over the cylinder...

    St. Louis Mayor and Police Officers Shot 2/7

    Sage gets it. I'm not condoning what he did. I'm merely trying to understand. I see most just want to label him a nut and call it good. Way to sweep the problem under the rug. If we don't learn from this history it is bound to repeat again and again. Hero / Villain / Monster ? I say he's a...

    St. Louis Mayor and Police Officers Shot 2/7

    When I mentioned he was black, it is not to imply that he was being targeted because of his race. Rather that if he intended to move out of town (personally what I think would have been his best option), he would have had a more difficult time pulling up roots and simply leaving town, as a...

    St. Louis Mayor and Police Officers Shot 2/7

    __________________ I have been repeating over and over again that he who cannot protect himself or his nearest and dearest or their honor by non-violently facing death may and ought to do so by violently dealing with the oppressor*. He who can do neither of the two is a burden. He has no...

    Negligent Discharge; ongoing account

    Whoops, sorry. I did a search for "negligentdischarge.com" and "negligent discharge" before posting this. Didn't find anything, but the site has been kind of squirrely tonight. My bad. Nothing to see here, move along. Though it's good to see the victim is a member here. It helps drive the...

    St. Louis Mayor and Police Officers Shot 2/7

    Heh, close AC. That may be the denotation of the word, the connotation is "bullet". At least in East Africa. With as many countries as there are in Africa, never mind the numerous tribes I could not say whether this is true of all of Africa. I have many Kenyan friends (in fact was shooting...

    Here you go guys. Time for a little sobering up. ***WARNING; Graphic picture advisory*** http://negligentdischarge.com/leg.html ---- IMO This is a good idea by this guy. His bad decision can be for our benefit. Though a gun is just a lifeless tool, one should treat it with respect. Review...
