    Netflix Movie - The Highwaymen

    Just saw the trailer a few days ago for a new Netflix movie The Highwaymen. It tells the story of the hunt for Bonnie & Clyde from the perspective of Texas Ranger Frank Hamer. Looks interesting! YouTube Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Question for the Hogue Grip Users

    Do the Hogue grips raise your POA compared to the standard straight back factory grips? I'm forced to carry a Glock 22 on duty and usually carry my personal G19 off duty. I'd like to add the 4013 to the rotation, but find the grip angle makes the gun point low for me. I find this also...

    For the single stack .40 owners...

    If you own one of the single stack .40 3rd Gen's such as the 4013, you've probably noticed that parts, especially magazines are getting hard to find. Knowing that the guns were built on the 45 frame I decided to do a little experimenting. After checking my spare parts I found some followers...

    A wonder fall afternoon at the range

    In my neck of the woods its been a perfect September day. A cloudless sky with warm sun and a slight hint of cool in the breeze. The occasional yellow and red leaf can be seen now. What a day to take your 3rd Gen's to the range! I took my WVSP 4006 and 4013 out of the first time since putting...

    Anyone have Novak work on their 3rd Gen?

    I've slated a portion of this year's uniform allowance toward getting my recently acquired 4013 slicked up a little and ready for duty. In particular, I'm interested in a front night sight and trigger job to smooth out and lighten the pulls. (SA breaks around 7lbs, DA is a touch gritty) While I...

    UBG Striker & the 4013

    I snagged this nice, lightly used, single stack 4013 on GunBroker back in March. Shortly there after, the hunt for a good holster began. I wasn't going to be satisfied sticking in a holster made for another gun. After a few weeks of research comparing prices, wait times, etc, I settled on a...

    Where has all the powder gone?

    Seriously, what's up with the powder shortage? In my neck of the woods, ammo is once again readily available for the common calibers and prices are at or near pre-panic levels. Bullets and primers can also be had at acceptable prices and in acceptable quantities. Powder on the other hand is...

    Hogue checkered wood 3rd Gen grips

    Anyone use them and/or have pics? I'm considering a set for my 4013 and I'm curious to hear some reviews and see a few pics beyond the stock ones. Most talk of the wood Hogue grips seems to be around the smooth ones. I realize they add some bulk, but that's not an issue for me as I'm not...

    Score!!! S&W 4013 Single Stack

    Once in a blue moon Lady Luck will smile my way. I recently managed to score a nice, lightly used 4013 with 3 mags on GB for $475. I still came in under $500 after shipping and transfer. I guess what constitutes a "good deal" on these old 3rd Gens depends on what one is will to pay, but I think...

    WVSP 4006

    Gentlemen, I am 3rd Gen-less no more! Earlier in the month I was talking guns with one of our detectives outside a courtroom while waiting our turns to testify. Knowing my background, the detective tells me he saw a nice WVSP 4006 in a local pawn shop. Naturally, on lunch recess I had to check...

    Mob City

    I've been seeing commercials for a few weeks for a new series on TNT called "Mob City". It's created and produced by Frank Darabont, creator of "The Walking Dead" and looks like it's going to feature some familiar faces as well. Looks like a series with potential that harkens back to the film...

    Mingo Co WV Sheriff Murdered

    http://www.wsaz.com/breaking/home/BREAKING-NEWS-Mingo-County-Sheriff-Shot-in-Front-of-Courthouse-201271361.html Sheriff Eugene Crum was shot and killed while sitting in his cruiser eating lunch. Suspect was shot and wounded after a pursuit. It's a crazy world and in my estimation, getting...

    Dirty Harry and his "light specials"

    A few weeks ago I picked up a "deluxe edition" of Magnum Force. Included on the disc is several special features including a commentary by John Milius. During the shooting range scene he explained Dirty Harry's load of choice and how the line was messed up during production. The "light special"...

    Gun safe options for the apartment dweller?

    The short story is I got married 6 months ago, moved to start a new LE gig and into a nice two bedroom apartment. Funds a tight, but I really need to invest in a modest safe. At this point, I'd be happy to have something just large enough to hold 6 or 8 handguns, but ideally I'd like...

    Anyone loading 200g LRNFP for their .45 Colt's?

    Traditionally I've loaded 250g RNFP or 255g Keith HC for my .45 Colt. I haven't fired a 200g projectile out of my 25-13 in years, but as I recall, there was a major deviation between POA/POI. They were Corbon 200g JHP. I'm tempted to revisit the 200g bullets again so I could share the same...

    Sources for 3rd gen Smiths?

    Fellas, it boils down to this. I've got an itch that's not going to go away until I find a 4513TSW. I've wanted one sice I packed a 4566TSW as a duty pistol. In addition to that, all of my .45's are Government or Commander sized steel 1911's. I'd like something different just for fun and a...

    Courageous

    Finally got a chance to sit down with my fiance and watch "Courageous" this evening. Excellent movie with a fantastic message. Despite initial appearances, its much more than a "cop movie". Its an overtly Christian movie about being the type of man and father we should strive to be. Its a very...

    Dupicating Buffalo Bore and other's heavy .45 ACP

    Looking for a little information gentlemen. While I typically pack my 25-13 Mountain Gun in the woods I occasionally find myself wanting or needing (for concealment purposes) to carry a 1911 while roaming the great outdoors. Conventional defensive ammo is fine for all threats one might encounter...
