    Border Collie vs. Racoon

    When living in Pa alongside the mighty Conodoguinet Creek, raccoons were a shoot on site matter. The main rabies carriers, and would eat the sweet corn night before harvest. And smart enough to quickly learn when ya had rifle in hand.

    Glock discontinues “those” calibers

    Another that took a long time before getting a Glock. Now have a G19. G23 and G42. Not pretty, but the 23 in overalls front pocket has mostly replaced a 1911 during colder months, the 19 is mostly dedicated suppressor host and the 42 replaced the PPK. Function over form as i age out. As far...

    Is it all Tactikool now?

    Will just take the side benefits of what some call "tacticool" Am grateful for the options of: easily adjusted length of pull that allows a rifle to be fit, without permanently sawing off the stock and custom fitting a recoil pad. plastic pistol grips that allow easily adjustment to trigger...

    Unique Powder

    Am paying very close attention. Just in case i live long enough to use up my last 9 lbs. And if/when people do find a good substitute, buy a lot of it while it's still available.

    Does Anyone Clean Firearms Anymore

    After finally buying and shooting some Glocks, they just don't seem to get as dirty as others when shooting jacketed bullets. And my 9mm's and 357's are loaded with jacketed, and don't get nearly as dirty as with lubed bullets. As far as people selling their guns dirty, am betting they can be...

    Pocket Pistol

    Pretty sure in Wi they have to post on door, not just have a written policy somewhere. However, if memory serves, if they find out your carrying they can tell you to leave.

    Are you going to purchase at 25% price hike

    The last "new" vehicle i bought was a 2005 tundra. Ain't likely to ever buy another "new" car. All though could be wrong, as far as all new vehicles going up 25% due to tariffs, i find that unlikely.

    9mm Suppressor Advice Request

    The size of 22LR silencers are considerably smaller diameter/lighter than most, if not all, 9mm cans. You can get pretty short 9mm cans now, but they appear to be wider. Can see the sights on Ruger Mark IV over a Silencerco Sparrow. Am also of the opinion to get a specific 22 lr and 45 can...

    22 Target Pistol Recommendations

    The main differences that mattered to me were the Mark II didn't "need" a trigger upgrade to shoot accurately, but needed the manual for it's reassembly. If memory serves it also has a steel frame. Bought 2 of the newer Mark IV heavy barrels (not the 45 plastic frames), mainly for their...

    for everyday carry

    The longer the time, the more the differences in weight and size can become apparent. For 1911's, have heavy belt with hd suspenders. During warmer periods, the 3 in ultra carry at 3 o'clock in a FBI cant hybrid iwb holster that really spreads the weight out, and counter balanced by one mag...
