The best thing to do is avoid Reservations if you can. They are their own nations, and some of the inhabitants still have a chip on their shoulder. I can't blame them, I still get a little hot at the Campbell clan and Oliver Cromwell. Stay in the USA.

I agree with most everything said. One thing I will concede is the GP100 is a little to big for what it is. Carry an N frame and get the full 6. If you want to shave weight, go find one of the Lew Horton 3" models, they are a great carrying .44. Or get the Charter Arms that weighs less than the...

All this SHTF/End of the world/zombie apocalypse stuff is silly. When it does, you won't be prepared, you won't be comfortable, you won't have the ideal set up. Paradigm shifts tend to be that way, ask the Romans. If you have any sort of firearm, you will be better off than most of the people.

I like shooting my EDCs, but they are a 686 3" or a Combat Commander. On the few occasions where jeans and flannel are out, I carry a Colt Detective, and enjoy it and shoot it well. I have never enjoyed shooting a J frame, nor been able to shoot them well. I'm not sure why, but to me, there is a...

Lobo Gunleather. I wear it every day, very comfortable. I got the inner and outer hammer shields, so it doesn't dig into my side or rip up my clothes. I think it was in the $70s, they are fairly quick on their turnaround and are super people to do business with.

My preferred calibers are .45ACP and .44 Spl, which will still make your ears ring. Truthfully though, I'm with Old Bear. If I'm in danger in my hacienda and I've got my .416 Rigby in my hands, it'll be used.

The Mountain Gun has the standard profile barrel (like the 24,27,28) instead of the 29's bull barrel. Should be a +\- half pound difference in weight. Most importantly, to me, the 629 will have a square butt, where the mountain gun is round.

For self defense I like .44 Special with Speer Gold Dot, Hornady Critical Defense or Winchester Silvertips. I'm trying out the Sig HPs, and so far like the accuracy. For self defense, bear, wolf, sabre-tooth tiger variety, a good hardcast SWC, either special or magnum.

Lobo does a great Threepersons, which you can order with thumb break. They also make thumb breaks in their Model 5 and their enhanced pancake.

Either a 686 3" with Silvertips in a Lobo IWB or a Colt Commander with Golden Sabres in a Milt Sparks SS.

If there is enough of a price difference. There are so many ARs on the market, the difference seems slight so why not just get the full rifle? If you don't want to spec out all the rifles, do one or two lowers and move the uppers. You can always cannibalize or trade the others.

Sounds ok....but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try for a little more off the top. I carry the exact same gun every day (traded the Hogues on it for Ahrends RB finger groove). Lobo made me a great holster for it that really helps, it's their IWB with inner and outer hammer ears so it doesn't...

That is a slick piece. Well done.

You rarely see them around here and when you do it truly is above the market (like about 2k). That may be on the high end, but the 3.5 is in demand and if it is truly brand new-ish it may be par. I would swing if I were you.

I always got great accuracy from the old Silvertips, but since they've gone the way of the dodo, I usually go with Speer GD or Remington GS. I've picked up some of the Sig ammo but haven't been able to get enough free time in daylight to test it.

Kinda crappy, but those of us here in God's country don't like going to the left coast if we can help it :) Honestly, I didn't think we had reciprocity with the whole west coast in any event.

I have nothing but praise for Lobo. My two most recent holsters from them have been awesome. One is an IWB for my 686 that gets daily wear and is comfortable as an old pair of jeans. The other is a Threepersons/Sloan for my 27 and is as good a classic belt holster as my El Paso holsters, with...

That's a lovely canoe, my favorite shape.

Very nice. You have to love it when a deal like thatncomes your way. A 5" is next on my list.

It would be nice, but no. Colt is struggling right now on every front. Colt ceded the DA revolver market to Smith and Ruger while the police market was still a revolver only proposition, and real money was to be made. They can't get the numbers Ruger can and their attempt to compete with the...
