    Need Your Help with 15/22 Mag

    Forget the buttons and get this instead. The McFadden Lightning Speed loader with the adapter for the 15-22 magazines will let you load all those magazines literally in seconds. It is by far the best way to take care of your loading problems. Available from many sources - including Amazon. Just...

    Need thumb replacement after loading mags.

    Another +1 for the upLULA. Nothing else comes close. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Took the Plunge - Ammo Question

    I like Mini-mags too. But my own 15-22 actually prefers Federal AutoMag. Don’t know why, but the Gun has had fewer problems with it than anything else (and I’ve tried them all.) YMMV Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Shield .380 EZ report

    I have on and have put about 350 rounds through it. Mixed types from range ammo to personal defense ammo by several manufacturers. Still have not found one that will shoot consistently. I get 3 or 4 that shoot within a couple inches at 10 yds, then a flyer that hits 6 or 7 inches away. Not...

    Bodyguard range report

    Might not seem so “minimum” if it happens in a serious social encounter. I have a BG with about 800 rounds through it and have seen that exact problem 4 or five times. And yes, you can just pull the trigger again. And that may work but it takes time you might not have. (I had 1 round - from a...

    Shield 380 EZ vs 1911

    The actions are entirely different. The S&W is a striker fired gun DESIGNED to be carried without a safety. (There are already several built-in.) The fact that you can get it with a safety is so the gun can be sold in jurisdictions that REQUIRE it... not because it needs to be there. (And some...

    M&P 15-22 weird cycling

    Check your trigger pins. I had a similar problem recently when the trigger pin partially walked out of the left side of the lower. Trigger reset got flaky and sometimes it would, other times it wouldn’t. Then the pin came out on the left side and the trigger would not reset at all. Reseating...

    Beware of the Evil Bolt Roll Pin!

    Wheeler makes a set of roll pin punches that have a nub to fit the hole and a ledge to fit the sides. They are typically the same size punch as the hole so you shouldn’t have a problem getting it in there. Wheeler makes a set of just punches and they also make an AR toolset that has the punches...

    Which mounting plate for Vortex Venom?

    See if it mentions the Burris Fastfire. Same plate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vortex Venom on a CORE 9L maybe?

    Look here: Vortex Optics - Viper Red Dot Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vortex Venom on a CORE 9L maybe?

    It would be the same plate as for the Burris Fastfire III or a Doctor. I put a Doctor plate on my M&P (rear sight replacement) and mounted a Venom. It works great! Makes my "aging eyes" issue a lot less likely to screw up my shooting... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    15-22 Magazine reloaders

    I started with one like the red one pictured. But it was actually faster to simply load without anything, one round at a time. Then I found the McFadden Lightning Loader. Nothing else compares! You wouldn't believe me if I told you how fast it is. And they are ALWAYS correctly staggered for...
