Appearance doesn't matter much when it comes to personal defense, true, but the price of the laser is nearly the cost of the gun. To spend that on a up close belly gun that will almost certainly not require laser pinpoint accuracy in the already unlikely scenario you're gonna fire it at all...

Lasers on poly guns look so stupid and they require new holsters to use. I really liked the Crimson Trace laser grips when they were actually grips. No change in holsters and totally intuitive. They do work well though. I’ve had them on 3rd gen guns and a couple of beretta 92’s. Shooting...

I love M&P’s and have a half dozen or so. So I would like to add the Shield X to the collection but for the life of me I don’t see the purpose. For range guns there are better choices since concealment isn’t an issue, and for a Carry gun it might be a hair slimmer than the Shield Plus but it’s...

I use Lee dies and only buy the ones with the included crimp die, but since the rifle dies don't have a dedicated expanding die like my handgun dies, the rifle set only came with 3.

I figured it was something like that. Thanks!

I haven't reloaded .223 in a couple of years. I still have a bunch of primed cases ready to load from the last time I did. But I shot some factory .223 with my son the other day so I'm prepping the brass. I used a universal decapping die, and I'm going to resize and trim next. I open the die...

When the 365 came out it was ALL about capacity, so that’s when they started to care about capacity for marketing. I remember people making a big deal that the Hellcat, which came out after the 365 and its 10 round flush fit mag, held 11 rounds!

I bought the 80X just because it was so much classier and quality built than the BG 2.0. I’m never gonna carry it. I’m a big Beretta fan and just liked it. I might buy the 2.0 at some point. Just never felt unarmed carrying the 1.0. I used to carry a 5 shot J frame on the subways in 1990’s...

The standard one is perfectly adequate, but I’m feeling the itch to start modifying this. I know Magpul makes a set. Which one is it and what do you think of it?

I absolutely do NOT believe that 60% of gun owners have received formal firearms training. Have you been to a public range in your life? I only shoot on weekdays in the morning. Ranges with range officers are slightly better, but even then, watch them struggle to load a magazine. Whoever...

The N rhe NYPD always authorized the Model 36 for off duty, and some Colt’s. When they went to stainless guns the Model 60 DAO was chosen, but it soon experienced light strikes, and for only the first of two times that I am aware of, the nypd forced cops to stop carrying it. That was a big...

I know they make round butt to square butt grips.

I just got my first 2” K frame a few weeks ago. A 64-2 in 2” with factory Magna round butt stocks. Square butts look weird to me in a 2”. The gun almost looks like a 66 snubby. I shot it unbelievably well last week. Shots all dead center in almost one hole at about 10 yards.

My belt actually turned up. I left it at the gym when I was there on Thursday. I thought I might have done that so I called yesterday but the lazy kid behind the desk must not have even looked. I was there today and asked in person and it was right on top. And it is a Simply Rugged made by Rob...

I have misplaced my regular belt that I use and for the life of me, I can’t find it. I bought it a few years it’s black leather, 1.75” wide (I believe), nice and solid, and was just fabulous. I’m hoping it turns up. If it doesn’t, I gotta get another one. Can somebody recommend a quality belt...

You sleep with a gun on your hip? You take it in the shower? You ever exercise? You do that with your gun on?😊

How’s it compare to the 1.0? I know the trigger is lighter but I mean feel and recoil between the 2? My 1.0 has been flawless and it’s shot almost nothing but my own reloads. Don’t shoot it more than 7 yards and it’s mostly yank and crank to simulate self defense shots. They all land in a...

The 2.0? How has it been treating you?

Do they still allow off duty revolvers? 1992 was the last duty revolver but off duty revolvers were allowed until 1996, I believe. In 2018, the hundred or so guys still carrying duty revolvers were forced to get the 9MM.

The NYPD issues 135 grain Gold Dot +P ammo for the few guys still carrying an off duty revolver. Last guy who could be carrying one would have about 29 years on the job so there aren’t many left.
