    What do you think about this shooting?

    I guess I would have shot them, but once they were on the floor gasping, I would have called 911. I don't think I would have instead shot one in the eye from a foot away, and the other up through the chin from 6 inches for a "good clean finishing shot". But that is just me.

    What do you think about this shooting?

    Forgot to mention he had all but one of the lower level light bulbs removed and in a pile by his reading chair. Police postulate that he did that so perps could not see him, but he could get a good shot at them. You know, he did not call the cops for 24 hours. How did it not occur to him to...

    What do you think about this shooting?

    I live in MN, so we get a lot of coverage. Here is what is evidence, not supposition: -Byron Smith moved his car a 1/4 mile away, about 11:30 am the day in question, some say so it would look like he was not home. -He had 4 video cameras outside, feeding into a 4 way split tv in view of his...

    Removal of magazine caution lettering

    Ok, next time I will say I use masking tape instead of black tape and put a smiley thing after the period. Will that do the trick? Hope so.

    shield failure to fire update.

    I had a ftf on my sheild, round 20 or so. Remington in green box, 9mm. Hmmm... Light strike on Primer. Reloaded that shell in middle of magazine. Ftf'd again. Threw it away. Hundreds of rounds later, same and different brands of ammo, not one issue. So, is it the gun, or the ammo? I don't...

    My surprise with the Shield

    If you think a two finger grip cannot shoot accurately, google "hickok45 glock 26" and watch. You will be surprized and enjoy yourself. Heck, google hickok45 shield, you will see what can be done with 2 fingers gripping the shield as well.

    loaded mags

    An engineer told me that springs weaken/break from being compressed and uncompressed repeatedly. Not from being compressed.

    About the same as leaving your car suspended on its springs for 10 years.

    Fobus for Shield

    My Fobus PPS paddle holster came yesterday. S&W Shield is now included on the package in the area that lists all the pistols it fits. The Shield fits in there perfectly. I like it. FWIW, they said at Fobus that the non-roto model of the paddle model fits much closer to your body than the roto...

    Shield Recoil Spring Warped?

    Mine is straight, although I doubt if a spring under that much compression would cause a malfunction. The malfunction maybe bent the spring a little. Call S&W and ask for a new one.
