Point_Flash_Sights Hi again, OK! Thank you for the grreat links! I like your transitional approach--it makes a lot of sense to me. BTW, as a side note, have you taken any courses at Gunsight? (link below:) http://www.gunsite.com/ If so, your thoughts? Thanks again! Rich :)

Silhouette Shooting Hi Mister X! Thank you for your reply! Interesting link! Take care, Rich :)

Aggressor Methodology Hi ArcAngel! Thank you for your thoughtful input! And I like your Mother's far-reaching advice! When I got my CCW, I understood the police officer teaching the course say most fire fights are within 10 feet, in dark lighting, and over in 3 seconds. So I kinda went with...

Writing with the Other Hand Hi Jascott! And thank you for your post! Wow! Awesome that you were able to change your shooting technique not allowing your dominant eye to remain dominant. I would equate that to learning how to write with my left hand (versus being right-handed my whole life)...

Carry what You are Comfortable With Hi Jim! And thank you for your reply! I like everything about your post! Including .380 vs bigger. A dear friend of mine gives me grief about .380 vs 9mm, saying that someday I'm gonna regret not having the stopping power of a 9mm. I hope that day/event...

Back Pocket Hi Moose! And thanks for your reply! Yeah, I had another reader say he preferred back pocket carry and said it was for the most part comfy. His minor exception was having to draw if seated in his car. I had a #3 blackhawk simple pocket trigger-protected holster, and thought...

Heavy Trigger Pull Hi Ram! Thank you for your reply. True enough on both DAO and for the most part, heavy trigger pull. When using a clip, just curious do you have other items in the same pocket? Take care, Rich :)

Safety First Hi Dave! Thank you for your reply. Yeah, I find the safety a bit stiff on the BG 380, too. Another reader equated the Double Action Only nature of the BG 380 to that of a revolver with the hammer down, questioning the need for a safety. I kind of like the analogy. Your...

Little Hammer Hi RV4 Driver! Thank you for your reply! And look at you loading up on all the toys...guns...fast planes.... Well done! Anyway, yeah, I sit corrected on the striker-fired thing. Dusty brains from researching and researching including a lot of striker fired 380 and 9mm...

Out of Ammo Hi Again, Old Cop! Thank you for sharing about your experience of running out of ammo. I see ads for pocket magazine holders, and I think "c'mon...like six isn't enough..." But there you go. And I can only imagine that once is too many times to have that happen. I can't imagine...

Thanks for Correction! doh! Hi James! Thank you for your reply! RE: Striker fired And thank you for your correction. Indeed, the BG 380 is not striker fired. My old brain let that idea slap onto the BG 380 after seeing so many striker-fired weapons during my research of this and compact...

Condition 1 no holster Hi Jack! Thank you for your input! Although one of the few responders that carry that way, I can appreciate it's form. the BG 380 fits so nice in the pocket without a holster! Unfortunately, I found the "printing" or outline of it too revealing that way. I got a...

Flash Sight Picture Instructor Hi OK! And thank you for your reply! Cool: an instructor! What else can you share with me/us about what you teach, methodology, or distinct steps, and what criteria you have that you're satisfied to pull the trigger, etc. When you teach, for instance, do...

Testor's Acrylic Orange Hi Collects! Thank you for reply! Lots of interesting suggestions on how folks paint their front sights! Cheers! Rich :)

All Good! Hi Jim! And thank you for your reply and your vote! For all intents and purposes, the question lends itself to folks with compact weapons, and especially the comfort level of pocket carry. I chose the BG 380, as I just got one and plan to pocket carry condition 0, and I think that...
