    Lack of interest in 40 SW yet 10MM is getting popular??

    I have a few opinions on why just opinion. I shoot the 9 because ammo is cheap. I was stationed In Alaska late 90’s. I am a traditionalist more so then then now.. I owned more revolvers than I did semi auto. My roommate bought a Glock 10 mm because he asked people and he listened to stories. He...

    Hello from Slaton Texas

    If you haven’t visited Alley Outdoors in midland you should great place to shoot. I was there yesterday had business in big Spring. I was on my bike and I wasn’t allowed to carry where I was headed. On the way back I figured that since I pay my monthly dues, I should use them rented a Canik 509...

    Do you ever wonder if Gun Control Advocates lurk or even sign up on Gun Forums?

    I read first few pages then the last. So if I repeat I apologize. First welcome to America people are allowed to voice difference. Our founding fathers were smart not to trust the government. So they created a the Constitution and included the Bill of Rights. They knew governments would change...

    Just curious if anyone here who partcipated in the spare magazine thread has rethought it after LA riots.

    No because I rarely get to carry as a teacher, so when I do those ten rds feel adequate. When I first started traveling pulling my trailer. I joined at forum there is a thread posted about carrying spare parts reading that thread is much like this. When do you stop if one water pump breaks do...

    Full size range gun

    No arguments from me I figure I’m an ok shooter and yes I figure most shots are going thru or making my hole bigger. My grouping gets a few thumbs up occasionally people don’t realize I use all my luck at the range. Here is a pic of my Savage 308 straight out of box it was a ways off I was...

    Full size range gun

    So I learn something new I wouldn’t think of changing target every 20 rds I usually shoot with daughter or wife. That would mean for me changing every mag I shoot while they reload and vis versa. Normally I adjust where I aim but I was trying to fix my grip but for most part if not hitting where...

    Full size range gun

    Ok I lied ( I fixed shooting to the left on the Taurus) another reason I guess to shoot my Carry gun more frequently. The Taurus has a smaller grip plus my off hand thumb was being ornery today couldn’t apply the same pressure off hand kept slipping. That said still have lots of work on range...

    Full size range gun

    Ok my skills are lacking can’t remember if this was my .45 with iron sites or the Taurus GC3 passing down to my daughter. I have fixed the low left problem. Took me forever to figure it out and then when I was taking my daughters two best friends to the range I want them to review a few videos...

    Full size range gun

    As stated before range gun I might put optics on it will go to the range only. I shoot my Kimber every other trip but I want full size for strictly range. I’m thinking about a bundle from Acedemy but I like the ideal of a bigger gun Cz had been creeping into my mind several brands not named...

    Full size range gun

    So I carry a Kimber mako as my EDC I own a Rock Island 1911 .45 . I am looking for a range gun thinking 9mm just because of price of ammo. I’m not brand loyal I was thinking of an Sig but I see other brands listed as well that intrigue my interest. Wondering what others use just for range.
