My wife and I learned many years ago to just stop cramming a max out mag into a handgun . Rack the slide back and lock in place just like it would be when shooting empty and release the slide . Some high cap handguns magas may be loaded less one round for carry just incase you have a problem...

MY wife has had a ruger max since they have been around . Been a issue free handgun . does whats it meant to do with out wondering if your bought a pistol or another s&w with issues ! I will say my wifes 380 is not her primary carry . Thats a 9mm p365 xl . The little max get carried only when...

I had a Dan Wesson 4" 22 revolver since the early '80's but as a practice handgun as I hunted with a DW 357mag revolver. These were 6 shot revolver but with the same fine trigger pull as my DW 15-2 revolver and was rather accurate . Problem was I just did not shoot it much since I had a colt...

Seems kinda late to end of the comp barrel games but I sure the walther fans will want one . I do wonder if the compensator walther is using from parker machine is a selling point or just laziness on walther's part . Anyhow I have no interest . Hum , looking at the photo above the sights...

Old holoson 407C-gr x2 bought back in 2020 I think . No interest in in the newer enclosed units on a handgun yet as ours older holoson's still work well . I use a rubber cover on my dot optic that is attached to my belt with a small branded cord . When holster is drawn from my normal 3:00...

Some of use could care less about glock firearms in general ! The 9mm cartridge and the interest in the 380acp does make it easier for some of todays softer folks to be able to conceal carry or have a chance to become law enforcement . I started CC'n a 40 in ether late '90 or early '91...

Looks like some of us don't see the tall stock sights while other have issues with them . Might be an experience level problem ?! Anyone new to dot optics one be better to start off with your dot optic on a 22lr pistol . Weigand base that adapts to some non railed pistols . Then also lest...

I also do not notice my "iron" sights unless I need to look at them for some odd reason . Your focus should be on your target or threat using a dot optic and once your at least as good with a dot optic as you might have ben with open sights for defensive needs under 15 yards you might not even...

Big boys and there toys ! Carry what you Hope to be fast enough with and accurate enough with if ever needed and do not assume one shot will get the job done . Fear the old person still very good with a 22lr semi auto pistol .

NO love found in our home for my wife's fpc so went away after only few shooting sections on our range . My wifes back to shooting our AR9 I assembled some years ago . Its heavier but with the carbine adjustable stock it is far better balanced with a softer more controlled recoil a 69 year...

I bought a hellcat pro comp a few months back and looking at todays prices I got a good deal locally of $532 . Looking at the s&w sheild X they look like there design specs are close to the hellcat pro comp for L- H- W and weight but with a higher more grip on the pro comp and 2 more...

I have a cleaning kit for a M&P PC 40sw but honestly I never used it and do not plan on it ! Figure out a kit to carry to the range or away hunting some 30 years ago .

MY wife has her 380 filled with 65gr underwood extreme defense . I have no interest in CC'n a 38sp or 380. I practice some with a 9mm and have a hellcat pro comp and m&p 4" compact with holosun green dot I practice with as I may need to carry one of them one day . I CC a m&p 40sw full...

Not a 44mag or larger butbought a lighter DW 15-2 8" 357mag with a 8" barrel and 4" I bought back in '76 when I turned 21 . When Ultra Dot released there rd dots for sale I ordered a 2moa 1" dot in early '91 . It was mounted on a Beuhler base and rings and remained in place for 20 years ...

bigfatty I reloaded all our practice ammo and some hunting ammo since '76 and shoot a still shoot a couple thousand rounds of reloads a year . For me to proof a new firearm or a change to a firearm would be 400 rounds fired . Now understand I have a several pistols I might carry so moving one...
