Glock I have been shooting, carrying & instructing Glocks since 1988. My EDC is a Glock. I think the trade in G22’s are an excellent value. I have bought several and equip mine with a a conversion barrel for 9mm & a conversion barrel for 357 sig. So for $350. Plus the barrels I end up with...

Being nice is just part of my sunny disposition. I always try to be cordial on the range. Over the decades I have met many good and friendly folk’s on the range. I shoot long distance every week, pretty much 52 weeks a year. Last December I was shooting at 1000 yds, had the range to myself...

I built a 9mm AR years ago for a “house gun”. I used a Rock River Arms 16” upper and built the bottom half from a stripped Anderson lower. Mine uses the Colt style mags and I recommend metalform mags If you go this route. Metalform makes the mags for Colt that they use in their 9mm smg’s...

I recently acquired one in 16”. I topped it off with a Vortex Strike Eagle 1x8, zeroed it at 100, walked it out to 600 yds in 100 yd intervals. I like it, Ruger certainly did their homework on this rifle. I have two DPMS Recon II’s that I have been shooting for several years and really like...

10mm I have been shooting and loading for the 10mm since it’s inception. I too was one of the unfortunates that’s ordered a Bren Ten, then ended up shooting the Colt Delta Elite. When Glock introduced the model 20, I grabbed one and have shot & carried it ever since. I have a bunch of...

That’s an easy decision for me. The three that I carry: A. M-65 B. M-657 C. M-24

I competed in IHMSA at Rio Salado Range in Mesa, Az. Back in the 80’s. At the time I was competing in IPSC, PPC, Bullseye & service rifle matches. I enjoyed the metallic matches more than any of the others. The matches were much more laid back than the other disciplines I competed in. I...

Thanks for taking the time to write a well done review & post photo’s. I am a fan of Berettas and own my share of them. I am looking forward to your thoughts once you have had a chance to range test the pistol and some JHP ammo. I agree whole heartedly about bullet improvement since the last...

Great buy! Nothing to be remorseful about there. I have owned, shot and carried model 28’s since the 70’s, they are great revolvers. Enjoy yours!

I own both gen 3 & gen 4 model 23’s and have had no issues with either one. I like the interchangeable back straps on the gen 4’s. I have also been looking at those 23’s at Aim & may add another one. They also have 9mm conversion barrels and Glock mags at very reasonable prices.

A most handsome pair. Never met a 58 I did not like, the knife is an excellent companion.

Back in the 70’s and & 80’s I worked part time as an armorer for a large S&W LE distributor. Back then, everybody was issuing revolvers. This distributor handled orders from a couple dozen to several thousand revolvers depending on the department. Large orders typically had to filled as...

Larry, It is an integral part of the hammer. It is solid. It is a generous hammer spur. I believe a portion of it was blued. I took some more photo’s of it for you. I included a photo of a hammer spur from an identical model from the afore mentioned article. It is not blued. This...

Very nice combo. I have no doubts that it will be a shooter.

Thanks Dwalt.

S&W copy To the best of my knowledge ( which is limited on foreign copies) I believe this To be a Spanish Trocaola. There is a really good article about these on “Forgotten Weapons” ( Eibar Spanish model 92). An article by Mike Burns details the history of this revolver, and has excellent...

I see things that raise my eyebrows all the time. This was at a social function a few years back. The gent was dining with his wife & 3 small children. I just drive on.

I own three of the Girsan Hipowers. I have been shooting Browning P35’s since the 70’s. I bought my first Girsan last summer, ran 500 rds through it and was impressed enough that I bought a two tone and then a match version. The Browning P35 is “best of breed” all metal 9mm IMO. The Girsan...

38’s in 357 magnum. I have shot tens of thousands of 38 specials in my 357’s. As pointed out in previous posts, clean the chambers. Back in the day, once fired 38 spl brass was easy to come by and inexpensive, 357 Mag brass was not. At one time I was shooting 500 rds of 38’s a week...

I was carrying a model 58, but did not have to shoot any.
