    Just bought a new SP101

    I used to have four SP101s, but got rid of the three I had in 357. I really liked them, but I felt the comparable J-Frames managed recoil better. I'm talking about the Model 60 in 357 and 649 and 640 also in 357. I kept the 3" SP101 in 327 Federal Magnum. It gives me a wide range of ammo...

    Seecamp LWS 32

    The magazines are short to prevent rim lock. Unfortunately that means you can't use most FMJ rounds. The FMJ rounds in my opinion are the only ones with reliable penetration in 32 acp. I also found the guts of it pretty delicate and it's easy to mess up a spring when cleaning. I would never...

    Talk me out of buying a Bodyguard 2.0 -

    My only real gripe with the Bodyguard 2.0 is that they made the barrel length exactly the same as the tiny original Ruger LCP. I suppose if you are only going to carry FMJs that is fine, but the Glock 42 may carry less rounds, but the barrel is 1/2 inch longer. With a borderline caliber like...

    Traveling companions

    I love your choices. I know in Ohio all long guns must be stored in the vehicle unloaded and separate from ammunition. Because of that, I bought an AR pistol with a 10.5" barrel, yes with a brace.

    Some Lessons from Life

    Let me say, I am not commenting about THIS specific case. I was an LEO for 32 years, the last few were in command slots. I left the job in 2007. We had very stringent screening for new hires, including psychological evaluations and a torturous 2+ hour oral board. We probably hired one in ten...

    Now, THIS is a Police Motor-sickle....

    I was an LEO from 1975-2007. I had a side job working security in uniform at a local shopping center. It was a pretty large operation. One of the vehicles we used was an old Harley trike. It was a blast to ride. I'm not a bike guy, but someone said it had what was called a "suicide shifter"...

    Factory 38 Spl 158 gr RNL vs SWC

    The late Paul Harrell did some extensive testing on standard pressure 38 Special loads. The old 158 grain RNL did pretty darn good on his "meat target".

    Thinking of buying Body Guard 2.0 380

    The big turn off for me is the fact that the Bodyguard 2.0 has the same length barrel as the tiny original LCP, 2.75". The Glock 42 may have less capacity, but it has a half an inch longer barrel. With a borderline caliber like .380 that can make a big difference in expansion. I'd rather have...
