    AI is really getting dangerous & scary!

    And there is no more “news” today than there was in the 50’s-30 minutes will cover it all. The rest is BS and opinion😏. Gott fill up those 23v1/2 with something

    4.25" 69 vs 4" 629 Mountain Gun

    I’ve got a 4.25 69. Great pistol. Even conceals pretty well in an owb pancake👍. For a packing gun anywhere in the lower 48 it’s pretty tough to beat. Mines traveled a fair bit on the trail, and a good old .44 mag it tough to stop. I usually carry a shot cartridge followed by 4 240...

    Does This Look Like Normal Wear

    No, not for 150 rounds. A turn ring always happens (though that seems a tad much for 150 rounds). The other wear is way out of oboe imho.

    Got a call from Homeland Security

    On unknown and obviously flaky calls I always answer “Warren County Sheriff’s office, may I help you”. Somehow they don’t wanna talk. Go figure?

    First time firing my 360 PD bad experience

    I'm betting JRD is right. Wrong ammo for an ultra lite pistol. I'm afraid you're going to be out a pistol. Ammo was obviously over pressure and the fact the mfgr says use only in Steel Frame revolvers isn't going to help you. Sorry my friend but I think you eat the cost on this one. And...

    Revolver vs. Semi Auto for CCW

    Decades ago I worked for the VA. Our “Police” were armed only with chemical mace. Problem was, chemical mace didn’t work on folks “Under the influence” or violent psych patients. Guess who caused ALL the problems😏. Not to mention that if you fired it indoors everybody in the room got...

    Revolver vs. Semi Auto for CCW

    I'd love to see true stats on how many "multiple attacker" events stop when the leader/first guy gets dropped by a round. I read a lot of reports where the attackers flee once they've taken fire. Can you absolutely count on that? Of course not, but I'm betting the odds are that's how it...

    Revolver vs. Semi Auto for CCW

    This. Statistically just having a firearm will diffuse most situations. If it goes past that point whatever you carry should be accurate enough (for YOU to shoot well) and powerful enough be a serious deterrent. That means doing sufficient damage per hit to discourage the aggressor. I...

    Finally obtained my CCW. Bobbed hammer or leave it stock? Model 65-3, 3 inch.

    I too suggest leaving the hammer alone. If you want a hammer less pocket wheel gun the J’s are fine. For anything other than pocket a regular hammer has always worked just fine for me. Even my pocket wheelgun is a 38 series with the shrouded, but still usable hammer.

    What was your first Smith and Wesson??

    A new .22 Escort. Has it several months, then traded it off.

    Crimson Trace For a J Frame ?

    We’ve got them on the wife’s EZ and 642. They are several years old nd work well. Wife is not seriously into shooting so anything that helps her get round on target is a good thing imho.

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    My only issues with lights are (1) you wind up flagging anyone you shine the light at-maybe bad guys, maybe not. First rule of gun safety is never to point a weapon at anything you’re not willing to destroy, and (2) your light provides a dandy aiming point for the armed guy you are facing...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    You got it. It seems in today's world unless you have a lot of tactkewl stuff strapped on a firearm it just doesn't work for "defense". Kinda like reducing the size of a cc pistol as much as possible and then making it bigger with more rails to strap still more junk on. You wind up with a...

    The Beretta 21A (Bobcat) Inox — my new BUG.

    I see these folks talk about optics, lights, suppressors on CC pistols and just roll my eyes. Let’s see, you buy a small pistol and the add a lot of bulk and weight and size. Perfectly logical🙄
